Jimmy Welcomed Home.

Echoes of the ballyhoo with which
James j. Walker, former mayor Of
Greater New York. was received by the
political chieftains of Manhattan and
Brooklyn yesterday morning when he
reached New York Harbor may have
resounded unpleasantly at Hyde Park,
where Gov. Roosevelt was resting from
his hard week of campaign consultations
and speeches. The clamor with which
Manhattans favorite son was welcomed
home, with Curry, NcCooey. O'Brien
and Farley-"Wonder-Bo Tom" Farley,
former sheriff, whom the Governor fired
from ofice-right out in front with
cheers and handwriting from the re-
ception boat and handshaking when the
liner was reached and boarded must
have caused bit of chill to course
the Governors spine. Was that hatchet
burying done the other day, when
Walker quit the race for mayor for
the sake of the party and O'Brien was
named for the unfinished term, quite as
sincere and enduring as seemed then?
Little happenings seemed to point to
something unpleasant in the minds OF
the reception committee. For example,
the band ON the tug bearing the big
bosses OF the metropolis down the bay
began to blare the strains Of Happy
Days Are Here Again, tune which was
early adopted as the official Roosevelt
anthem for the campaign, successor of
Sidewalks of New York Immediately
Mr.. Curry, who directs the political
faith Of Tammany, wigwagged his, hand
and shook his head at the leadef. In
akeutI5 the baton was waved for silence
Evening star., 1932-10-10

and In a few seconds the band started
anew. this time with the Tammany
war song, the refrain Of which is
Swamp 'em, swamp 'em,. get the
wampum, Tammany."
The spectacle presented by this ar
dent welcome home by the highest
political leaders of the Greater City
was highly significant. Walker re-
signed while on trial for removal. He
accompanied his resignation with a
blasting denunciation Of the Governor,
sitting as Judge in the case. He first
indicated that he would run for re-
election in vindication. Then he hastily
went abroad for a rest. He hurried
home. but owing to a series Of mis-
chances he did not arrive in time for
the convention which nominated q
Tammany candidate for the Office. He
had, meanwhile, from the sea, sent his
declination to run again Immediately.
He has not said a word to lessen the
severity Of his excoriation of the Gov
ernor. Upon his arrival he is received
with almost royal honors by the men
who were ready to renominate him,
who, it is understood, actually rendered
the nomination to him. Why this
demonstration of affection for the man
who was all but dismissed from office?
Was 1t a formal notification to the
Governor that Tammany and its asso-
ciated Democratic organizations pro-
pose to run things below the Bronx
to suit themselves and resent inter-
ference from Albany or anywhere else?
And will this have any effect upon the
vote cast on the eighth of November? ?
Time will tell, very short time.

Hungary Goes Militarist.

With the world still writhing amid at
tempts to grapple with disarmament and
economics, it is disconcerting to observe
the apparently steady trend of nations
to militarist or semi -militarist rule.
Hungary is the latest to succumb to it,
with the accession to power, under vir-
tually dictatorial authority, of Gen.
Julius Goemboes as premier. He takes
Office, as Col. Won Papen took the chan
cellorship in Germany last Summer,
with permission from the head of the
state, Regent Admiral Horthy, to dis
solve Parliament if and when necessary
Russia, Germany, Poland, Turkey,
Portugal, Greece, Yugoslavia and Italy,
in Europe; Japan in Asia, Cuba and
goodly percentage Of the countries of
Latin America are now ruled by out
right militarist and autocratic, or semi
militarist and semi-autocratic. govern
ments. When it is considered that
each Of them is participating in
disarmament negotiations at Geneva
imagine the hurdles which less militari-
ly inclined peoples must take to bring
their own views in line with govern
'ments that rule and have their whole
present being by the. sword and bayonet.
Gen. Goemboes' premiership in Hun
gary has more than ordinary significance.
Hitherto the country has maintained an
almost deferential attitude toward
France, holder of Europe's purse strings.
The new prime minister, described as a
soldier by career and a militarist in
mentality, is definitely Italophile AL
most his first act following appointment
as premier was to send a warmly
worded telegram to Mussolini He is
credited with the same outlook on life,
as far as popular government is con-
cerned, as the Won Papens arid the Won
Schleichers hold in adjacent Germany.
Gen. Goemboes is an outspoken foe of
restoration of the Hapsburgs. 1t was he
whose energetic opposition almost alone
foiled Emperor Charles second attempt
to regain the throne of Hungary in 1921.
The premier's first public statement en-
phasized his determination to educate
the nation to remain independent" He
will leave nothing undone to cut all the
threads Of sentiment and tradition
whereby HUI. gary might be tied to
revivals of the Hapsburg empire in
whole or in part.
Central Europe is evidently face to
face with another strong man. How
clean the new broom at Budapest is
likely to sweep is evidenced by two
of his official innovations-he has ap-
pointed a cabinet of exclusively young
men minus either counts or barons,
revolutionary departure, and has Or
dered that government employees must
be at work daily at eight am.

The Supreme Court Building.

For one hundred and thirty-two
years the Supreme Court of the United
States, the highest tribunal Of the land,
has had no proper home in the Ma
tons Capital. It has been a mere
tenant in the Capitol Building.
Assembling in Washington for the
first time, February 2, 1901. it was
assigned to small room on the south
side Of the Senate chamber, a mere
committee room designed for none but
casual use. In 1910 1t was shunted to
a room in the basement, directly under
the meeting place Of the Senate. After
the burning of the Capitol it had
temporary quarters In a room. little
better than a dungeon" in the north
wing. In February, 1919. it convened
in the chamber where its library now
is housed. 1t was not until 1859 that
after many vicissitudes, it was granted
the old Senate hall, in which it now
sits.
But on Thursday next the corner
stone will be laid for the magnificent
new structure just north of the Library
OF Congress, where at last it will be ac-
corded an environment commensurate
with its Importance in the Government
of the country. Legal lights from the
capitals of Europe, the Governors and
high judicial officers of the several
States, lawyers from every section of
the Union, diplomats, educators, archi-
tects, engineers, the nine members of the
Supreme Bench themselves and a host
Of other celebrities will attend the cere-
mony. 1t will be memorable occasion
Nevsr again in the experience of living
men will there be an event of like i'm
portance in the history of American
Jurisprudence.
The Supreme Court Building is part
of the glorious plan for the develop
ment Of the Capital, and the formal
beginning of its construction is, there
fore, a red letter moment in the ex-
pansion of the city 1t follows that
Thursdays ceremony will have signifl-
canoe for the general public as we'll as
for the judiciary and the bar. When
completed the edifice will be an out
standing adornment of the city and a
source of pride to all Americans. 1t
will be beautiful and noble shrine, a
splendid and lovely shelter for the basic
processes of national order and peace,
a sanctuary for what has been called
an attribute of God dwelling in the
hearts of men of good will.

Autumn Comes.

Yesterday tbs local world and his
wife, not to mention their children, en-
ployed day of rest to discover the ap-
proach of Autumn. They found the city
and it's environs quietly lovely under
the comfortable october sun. The earth
was warm and good to know; the sky
fresh and clear. Twilight came slowly,
and night seemed to descend reluctantly.
From early morning until dark throngs
filled the parks, squares, circles and
other breathing spots of the city, and
the roads of adjacent Maryland and Vir-
ginia were busy with an endless traffic
of motorists in quest of nothing more
than flying glimpse of natural beauty.
Autumn is the supreme colorist of the
year, and already the dogWoods, naples
and poplars are responding to the chem
istry of sunshine and frost. Red and yel-
low brilliance has begun to flame along
the edges of every woodland Soon the
forests will be blazing with endless vari-
ations of equinoxial scarlet. The falling
leaves will make a Persian carpet OF
Indian Summer hues. Then the fields
will grow browner as the days depart.
The sky will gradually lose its sunny
blue. Winter will come slowly and
beautifully. Men will make their nee
essary psychological adjustment easily.
1t Is good that it is ordered so.
The poet Spenser spoke of Autumn as
All in yellow clad,
AS though he joy'd in his plenteous
store,
Laden with fruits that made him laugh,
full glad
That he had banished hunger.
The hint is worth repeating. If the
Winter is to be bleak and unkind, as
many have supposed. this is the season
for harvesting the Summers fruits

The New Way in Spain.

From the Atlanta Journal
When governments method of deal
ing with vanquished enemies shows the
improvement now revealed in Spain it
is not blind optimism to conclude that
the race as whole is advancing toward
the Golden Rule. The new Spanish
Republican Government few days ago
marched one hundred and five members
of the nobility and former army officers
into ship that carried them to exile
in Villa Cisneros, on the scorching coast
OF Africa. That, naturally, was an un-
happy fate. The arstocrats accustomed
to dominate and be served doubtless
suffered extreme tortures of the spirit,
and possibly their pampered persons
felt the change from luxury to disci-
pllned plainneSS in food and quarters.
II they were inclined to sentimentalize
their plight, as probably they were, they
might feel cruelty treated, and affect
the mantle of martyrdom.
But. actually, they were remarkably
fortunate. The history of their nation
offers few precedents for such modera-
t1on on the part of conquerors toward
the vanquished. If the revolution had
1alled, there Is little doubt that rebel
heads would have fallen right and left
But the leaders of the new regime have
from the outset adopted a course of
humane reasonableness. With certain
elements clamoring for royal and aris-
tccratic blood. the government insisted
upon fair trials. There was almost no
evidence of the usual violence with
which an oppressed p ople. flushed with
victory and power, tramples the life Of
erstwhtle supposed tyrants.
Among the eXiled Spaniards were
many landlords. and within q few
weeks their land will be socialized.
Many workers formerly held In virtual
thralldom will be free to become farm
ers. with certain amount of independ-
ence and chance for self-respect.
Those whose property is thus parceled
out to others may feel that they have
little left to be thankful for In their
torrid exile. but not If they set the sans
value on their necks that most men de-.

hold anywhere is so fortunately circum-
stanced that Il may neglect the oppor-
tunity to make the most Of this years
yield of Nature. With Nation to feed,
nothing should be wasted. Each field
should be cleaned, each orchard picked,
in anticipation of the Winters need.
Viewed in this pragmatic light, the
Autumn has new significance to the
children Of earth. It Is the time for
laying up "plenteous store" and If
men feed their souls with garnered
memories Of loveliness the while they
fend for the protection Of their bodies
in days to come, Nature will but smile
the more.

contest against former Gov. John Ham

mill put through scheme to paint the
buildings of bankrupt farmers at State
cost, to prevent them from going to
rack and ruin. The opposition dug up
the fact that before the painters fin
ished the job they'd dolled up some of
Gov. Hammill's own farm buildings in
various parts of the State. Thencefor-
ward he was dubbed "Duco john" and,
so the story goes. the taunt stuck like
the paint and cost him enough votes to
nominate Dickinson.
