THURSDAY Senator Watson said
Il Judge Parker would win by one
vote or tie, while Senator Borah
said he would lose by at least five.
Both were wrong.
Judge Parker lost by two.
Those who accept the result as a
great victory for liberalism, or an
equally great defeat for the old
guard, are wrong to about the same
extent.
There are several reasons why
Judge Parker failed of confirmation.
not the least important among them
being common, ordinary politics.
Why was Judge Parker named in
the first place-a comparatively
unknown Republican from North
Carolina?
Or, to put it another way, why
were so many ADLER jurists over
looked?
Of course, the yellow dog" con-
tract and the race question played
an important part after the fight
began, but the fight began with what
every one recognized as an obvious
move to strengthen Republican
fences in the south.

SCIENCE
Mans Conquest of Mature Is
Told IN Interesting Fash
ion in Ne1O Book By Floyd
L. DdrrolU.
BY DAVID DlETZ

Modern scientific marvels-be
1Fl they super Zeppelins or Elm
stein theories-are not the product
of a moment. Each one represents
the climax of a long series of dis
coveries.
The fascinating history of mans
conquest of nature, the remarkable
tale of how he has ferreted out one
after another Of natures secrets, is
told clearly and Interestingly by
Floyd L. Darrow in The New World
of Physical Discovery" just pub
lished by Bobbs-Merrill at $3.50.
barrow is we'll known as writer
of popular science. His STORY Of
Chemistry" published by Bobbs-
Merrill in 1927, is still one of the
best and clearest books on the sub
ject for the general reader. In The
New World of Physical Discovery"
he does an equally effective job with
the science of physics.
AS DR.. r. a. Millikan and others
have pointed out, the last thirty
years have been the most remark
able year in the entire history of
physics.
The discovery of X-rays and ra-
dunn just before the end of the
nineteenth century paved the way
for the marvellous advances of the
twentieth with its new views of the
nature of matter and electricity,
time and space
Perhaps the most remarkable Of
all is the way in which the twenti-
eth century has seen the fusion Of
what previously we're isolated phe-
nomena in mechanics, chemistry
and electricity, into one comprehen-
Sive theory of the nature of the
universe.

rather would look for my proofs to
something which is happening at
the moment than go to records of
past events, however sanctified.
And it seems to me that Mahatma
Gandhi has brought the doctrine of
nonresistance into the laboratory.
1t may fal through the folly of his
own followers.
There is in my mind no doubt
that England can put down armed
rebellion. Machine guns can pre-
vail against a multitude armed with
sticks and knives and stones. Those
same guns can not quell those who
march with full hearts and with
empty hands.

After IL Centuries

DUT here in the year 1880 there
ID lives in a far-off land a leader
who actually is putting one of the
vital phases of Christianity to the
test. 1t seems to me that in the
past he has been able TO show that
non-resistance is a practical weapon
and very powerful one.
I think he will be able to show
this increasingly. Gandhi in Jail,
or even Gandhi dead, may prove to
be a greater threat to the British
empire than the little man who
walked out into the ocean to make
salt in defiance of the imperial
decree.
1t is strange that so few of us

pUT all my special enthusiasm for
IL Gandhi which rises out of a
sort of mysticism need not be lin
tied to approval on religious grounds
Since when did America turn
away from any who fought in free
dom's cause? And just what answer
will Ramsay Macdonald make tc
the Socialists and the Liberals OF
the world when they ask him why
the blood Of Indians has been shed
when they came asking for liberty?
The problem of Indian freedom is
complex and difficult, but at least
some start could be made here and
now.
The Communists have tried t.
make capital out of the Indian sit
uation, but somewhat unfairly, fol
in his own land Gandhi has had
nothing but bitter opposition from
the left-wingers who considered his
nonresistant campaign weak ano
him a mollycoddle.

Takes Test to Tell

A LII of us are inclined to be
IN more or less liberal on gen
eral principles, but the real test
comes when liberalism takes specific
shape.
Then, and not until then, do we
know where we are going to stand
An Indian political faction argu-
ing for autonomy, or even indie
pendence, is one thing. but crusade
of civil disobedience is quite another
Very few people are liberal enough
to sanction or condone disorder, be-
cause they realize that, no matter
how bad the tyranny of organized
government may be. it is better than
mob tyranny.

TN the spring the tired mans
l. fancy turns to thoughts of spring
tonic. Down through the ages has
come the conception that spring
represents the rebirth of every liv-
ing thing.
With this was associated the idea
that it is necessary in the spring to
clean out the system and to slim
ulate the cells to new activity.
In the old days when it was be-
lieved that health always was to be
found in bottle or pill, it was Gus
tomary to dose the system literally

A Road to the Future

You might just keep your eye on the California
motor caravan that is touring south through Mexico
attempting to blaze auto highway from British Co.
lumba to Buenos Aires.
That highway, far, exists chiefly paper. There
are enormous gaps in it, and it will cost millions to
fill them. But they will be filed eventually and the
completed highway will be tremendously important
thing for everybody concerned.
Some day, beyond doubt, you yourself will be max
ing that trip in your car-you and thousands of
your fellow citizens You will get magnificent out

will get new prosperity and understanding OF
this country. Everybody concerned will be benefited

Intelligence Needed

A JUSTICE of the supreme
IN court is likely to sit On the
bench good while, especially if
appointed in his prime.
Some Of the issues and problems
which excite us will fade out of the
picture before he gets through,
while others which have not ap-
peared on the horizon will take
their place.
What the nation needs is not
a man who has formed rigid
opinions with regard to certain
existing questions, but one who can
be depended on to form intelligent
opinions with regard to all ques-
tons as they arise.
We speak of liberals and reac-
tionaries as though they represented
not only reliable, but a perma-
nent, division on all subjects, as
though the words themselves were
sufficient, and as though we safely
could follow the leadership which
centers around them.
One need look no farther than
the troubles of the British labor
government with India to realize
the futility of such attitude.
Theoretically, the labor govern
ment has been more or less favor
able toward the Indian nationalist
movement, but when confronted
with the basic issue, it adopts
about the same course as a Tory
government would have under
similar conditions.
Ramsay Macdonald and his as
sociates may sympathize with those
native leaders who hope for a
greater degree of autonomy, but
when Mahatma Gandhi undertakes
to start a real rebellion, they
have no more compunction about
slapping him in Jail than the Bald
win crowd.

Fifteen Rejected

JUDGE PARKER is the nine
- tenth man to miss the supreme
court after being nominated.
With him included, the senate has
rejected fifteen, while names of
four we're withdrawn.
Until the fight was over, Parker
inspired some of us to brush up on
our history. Not one American in
10000 could have told how many
would-be justices had fallen by the
wayside, much less whether the
country had gained or lost.
AS the New York Telegram points
out, the most important phase of
this rumpus over a vacancy in the
supreme court is yet to come.
Blocking the wrong man means
little unless it makes room for the
right man.
Some people regard the right man
as one willing to ride their pet hob
by Enthusiastic prohibitionists, for
instance, want no one but a dry,
while professional farm reliefers
want no one who doubts the deben-
ture scheme.

ence, ability, and, above all else,
