Farms in City Net
Profits for Boys
Open Spaces in New York
East Side Filled by
Youngsters.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September ia group
, of young Agrarians on New York
lower East Side reaped a $500 harvest
og peanuts, tobacco and corn Wednesday
from a $3.50, 900 farm
The reapers were East Side children,
who have been tilling plots this Summ.r
in the great open spaces of Seward
Park, where the farms are 6 by 4 feet.
The farming, superintendent by the
Educational Alliance, was designed to
show the youngsters what a goober, a
leaf of tobacco or a stalk of corn looks
like in it's native state, but it earned
each of them a few cents in spending
money and kept them reasonably busy
through the Summer.
Farm relief is, in Seward Park as
elsewhere a pressing issue. The city's
sons of the soil were pretty furious
when workmen ripped up half of their
Tom Thumb acres in building subway.

NEW YORK, September Marion
Talley, 23-year-old prima donna who
abandoned grand opera for a Kansas
wheat farm in 1923, has turned her
back on farming and is studying sing
ing in New York again, under Frank
La Forge.
Miss Talley, who came to New York
from her farm last August, said her
wheat crop was good and her corn crop
a failure, and averred she had come
East to make some records She re-
fused to admit she was headed back to
the operate stage and was evasive when
asked If her decision to abandon opera
still held.
Opinion prevailed in musical circles
today that she expects to return to the
singing career begun auspiciously at the
Metropolitan Opera House in 1925,
when she was 1S. She spent four sea-
sons in opera and was reported to have
earned from $500 900 to $500, 900.

The Elephant Award


little bronze elephant will be awarded
to the Republican editor who has written the
editorial during the year of greatest value
to the party in the state.
Aside from the fact that all the losing edi-
tors will probably wonder in what dark back
room the judges were fixed, if the award fol-
lows the best Lake county and Marion
county precedents of the party, the results
should be interesting.
How far would plain suggestion that
the party be honest and repudiate the i'm
portation of Negro voters from Chicago as
a party method of success receive considera-
ton?
Or would any mild appeal that there be
a divorce of prohibition and other law
agents from party work receive considera-
ton?
VIII there be any consideration to those
who supported the recommendation of Gov
ernor Leslie that the statute of limitations be
repealed insofar as it applies to public Off
cials, or to those who called attention to the
fact that having once mentioned the matter,
both the Governor and the legislature
promptly forgot it and the old bulwark of
liberty for some very prominent Republic
ans still stands?
Perhaps the prize should go to those who
applauded the senatorial retreat of Watson
from the appointment of collector when
he deserted the woman who leads the other
party women and permitted the forces of
Robinson and Coffin to reward the editor
who tried to forestall public indignation
against Jackson when the latter went on
trial for the attempted bribery of Warren
McCray.
What sort of an editorial would best bene-
fit the party? Would it be one that would
urge the party to purge itself of its vicious
elements or one that would make the voters
forget? One that would urge the party to
lay aside its nightgown and put on Overalls
Or one that would assure the jobless men
of the cities and farm districts with closed
school houses that the situation is still
fundamentally sound?
At least the editors can not complain
that there was a dearth of opportunity to
render real service to their party. 1t needs
help in Indiana.

War is unthinkable. That economic rtvalries could
provoke war is bogy of the Bolsheyik
In Denny's book we have a calm, measured and
scholarly assessment Of the economic factors under
lying a possible conflict between these two great
powers. He shows that there is bitter struggle for
the control of indispensable materias-oil rubber
copper, zinc, tin and the like.
There also is a competition for markets nearly as
serious. Both states have great loans in the same
undeveoped countries. Both are contesting for the
control of the communication systems of the world.
And so
war between the United States and Great Britain
may not be inevitable, but it would to be so
useless the diplomatic methods of the past can be
improved upon and precedents shattered Unless
Britain will accept second place. it is hard to see how
war can be averted And 1914 showed how unwilling
great power is peacefully and graciousy to admit
eclipse.
Denny is no alarmst. He is simply sensible real
list, wishing to know what actually is going on around
He believes that economic statistics are a srer
guide to world politics than the press reports of am
bassadorfal banquets
He recognizes that the best safeguard against war
is TO recognize its imminent possibility unless cool
headed and informed men work hard and honestly to
avert 1t. He recognizes that 1t helps not bit to
live in a fools paradise.
The example OF 1914 shows the tutility of denying
actualites in the international scene In the spring
of 1914 Lloyd George was saying that the German
army not large enough for Germany's needs on
the continent.
ASquth declared that the relations between Ger
many and England never had been better. Grey
denied that England had any secret understanding
with France The kaiser took LichnowSky's bland as
surances Of British friendship at their face value and
thought England never would attack Germany
Then an Austrian archduke was murdered through
a conspiracy by country that King Edward VII
had Snubbed after the assassnatons of 1903 in Bel
grade. Reputable English papers in July 1914 recon-
mended that Serbia be towed to the middle of the
Atlantic and sunk.
John Bull" led off article with "To Hell With
Serbia" But within less than six weeks from the
murder of Archduke Franz Ferdinand Britain was at
war with Germany And it was her underlying rivalry
with Germany, not the German invasion of Belgium,
which brought her into the conflict.
The fools paradise became the graveyard of mil
of British soldiers Let profit by this lesson.

Why Not Reason in Prohibition?

The supreme court under Chief Justice Hughes will
be compelled to decide upon vital and crucial issues
relative to prohibition enforcement. magnificent
opportunity thereby will be opened for Interpretation
of the eighteenth amendment and its supporting legs
lation which will satisfy all reasonable from the
wet and dry camps.
The precedent is to be found IN Judge Hughes
jurtsc philosophy expressed during his earlier con-
nection with the supreme court. We refer to the
Rule Of Reason" doctrine applied to trusts and
monopolies. The Sherman act had outlawed all re-
strant of trade, but in the Standard Oil of 1911
the court reinterpreted the act to mean only
reasonable restraint of trade
Though Chief Justice White wrote the majority
decision, 1t is we'll known that Judge Hughes was the
spiritual daddy OF the decision He developed the idea
at length in famous speech delivered during the
presidential campaign OF 1908 He had been chosen
10 eucidae the Republican stand the trust problem.
in answer to Mr.. Bryan.
II Judge Hughes should now go as far as he and
his colleagues did in 1911 they easily could interpret
the eighteenth amendment to that not all
manufacture and sale Of alcoholic beverages is for
hidden but only unreasonable manufacture and sale.
There was nothing in the Sherman act which stated
or implied anything about reasonable unreasonable
restraint of trade. The law directed against all
restraint of trade
But Judge Hughes would not need to go far in
behalf OF common sense relative to the eighteenth
amendment as he did in favor Of big business u the
Rule OF Reason" decision Of 1911. 1t would suffice
if the supreme court allowed reasonable" nterpreta
ton Of Intoxicating quors"-as federal courts fire.
quently have done when the eighteenth amendment
not involved.
Federal courts already have decided that liquor
with as much as per cent alcohol not itoxicat
ing. They frequently have decided that beverages
with from to 10 per cent alcoholic content not
Intoxicating.
Let the supreme court be guided by such reason
able" interpretations and half the opposition to pro-
hbition on the part Of honest men will be removed
The supreme court also could easily give reason
able Interpretation to the scope and nature of federal
enforcement. If they merely went far enough to
state that decent respect for the first ten amend
ments was reasonable" it would help lot.
Mr.. Hughes whole economic philosophy impeled
him to take the line of reasoning involved in the Rule
of Reason" decision. His prejudices, however, may
restrain him from similar attitude toward prohibi
ton.

Court Endorses Work

TN setting Mrs. Dement'S con-
4 viction aside, a United States
circuit court not only holds her
guiltless, but makes use of the
occasion to indorse her work.
1.-THE defendants discussion of
the phenomena of SEX says the
court, sis written with sincerity and
feeling and with an idealization of
the marriage relation and sex
emotion. We think that it tends to
rationalize and dignity such
emotions rather than arouse lust.
while it may be thought by some
that portions of the tract go into
unnecessary detail that better would
have been omitted, it may be fairly
answered that the curiosity of many
adolescentS would not be satisfied
without full explanation, and that
no more than that really is given"
Such an opinion does more than
render justice as between an in
dividual and society, because it re-
veais a spirit of understanding,
without which law becomes a mass
Of regulations, restraints, and
inhibitions.

It's not good idea for the senate to publish that
somebody contemplates blowing it up, for the sug-

1t strikes one as wonderful that such great in

with its governments rising and falling like prices on

IF the power trust is to grab lot of the power de-

Another bewildering fact Is that

1T SEEMS TO ME By HB BY013%

NEW YORK has been slandered
~ and by one of the city'S own
reporters. AS a patriotic son of
Manhattan, I feel that some few
words of defense are in order.
Miss Ishbel Ross, writing for the
Herald Tribune, states that the
night life of Broadway is dull and
perfunctory and that the local
speakeasies are drab and dingy.
These dire results she attributes to
the effect of prohibition.
Here I must part company with
opponents of the eighteenth amend
ment. There is no point in exag-
gerating, even in good cause.
1t seems to me that the night life
OF New York, and I have lived it
earnestly for twenty years, never
was more gay and spirited. The eat
ing and drinking places have i'm
proved vastly within this time. In
the fifth article of her series, Miss
Ross writes:
Prohibition is credited with hav-
ing done more to change the char
acter of the Great White Way than
any other factor since the street
established its precedence as an
amusement center.
ut has helped to slow up the
theater. 1t has dimmed the res
taurant life and brought a different
crowd abroad at night in quest Of
food and drink.
