Getting ROugher

Maybe it's the influence of the women voters or
prohibition just too much civilization but where is
the good old Billingsgate of yesterdays political cam
paigns?
In the old days political opponent was something
to plaster with adjectives- If a campaign was not
well spiced with epithets and dash of libel, it
a flop
Professor George Schmidt of the New Jersey Col
lege for Women while digging around in history the
other day. found how they used to do it. Bryan
was called "a mounting, soldering demagog," and "a
wretched Anticipated boy, leading league of hell"
jefferson, whom we have come to consider pretty
fair citizen was characterized by contemporary
"a cowardy wretch" and his followers rapacious
profgates and desperadoes."
Even the immortal George was accused by
colonial editor of having 'debauched the country"
and supported nefarious projects and legazed cor
ruptionn
In light of the colorful past the present campaign
until now has been disappointing We have had to be
content with Secretary Doak calling Senator Norris
character assassin" with Wild Bill Donovan calling
Roosevelt "a political faker;" with Senator Halves
calling Secretary Hyde "Artful Artie" and Secretary
Hurley "Petulant Pat"
OF course, we've still got two weeks to go, and some
of the boys are waxing peevsh Big Bill Thompson
for instance is stirring up an-semitism in Illinois in
the effort to beat candidate Horner for the governor
ship.
In California the Rev Bob Shuler is saying crude
things about candidate McAdoo In other spots the
party is getting rough.
Perhaps we yet may see the air filled with the kind
OF mud that granddad used to like with his elections

Hoover: Before and After

Tariff increases on sixteen classes Of commodities
virtually requested by the President in his letter
to the tariff commission Monday
In his foundering to escape the tariff boomerang
OF his own making, President Hoover stoops to the
absurdity of questioning need for foreign trade.
At Charleston W. Va, for instance, he said that
only per cent of trade is with foreign coun-
tries and that the important thing was to look out
for the SO per cent constituting domestic trade.
TIE inference that we could have prosperity
without foreign trade
This, Of course is a complete reversal of Hoover's
campaign speeches of four years ago. Then he was
going up and down the country warning voters that
the 10 per cent of production sold in the foreign
market represented the difference between prosper
ity and depression accounted for industrys profits
and gave jobs directly and indirectly to many millions
of American workers
That is as true today as it in 1929-as lead
ing economists Just have reminded the President But
as candidate for reelection condemned by the
trade-killing Hoover high tariff the President can
not be as frank today four years ago in admitting
Americas dependence upon foreign trade and a lower
tariff permitting such business.

Suicide Increase Stirs Medical Study

Thus there was an increased sui
eide rate in the midst of what was
presumed to be the greatest pros
perity that this country has ever
had; namely, in 1927, 1928 and most
of 1929.
There was a very sharp increase
by the end of 1929 and 1890,
then slight increase in 1881, and
now sharp increase in 1882.
1t is interesting to note that there
was a declining suicide rate during
the war years, perhaps because
enough people were being killed at
that time to make death more hor-
rifying.
It is believed that the low figures
for suicide during and Immediately
after the war reflected the great
interest which most people had in
living.
The Statisticians are inclined to
believe that considerable number
of clear-cut cases of suicide now
developing are the result of press
ing economic stringency.
The proof is that the percentage
Of increase among men has been
much higher than among women.
Among white men the suicide rate
increased 46 per cent between 1925
