NEW YORK, May 14.-Although
the water is colder and deeper
than ever, the sharks hungrier and
less choosey than in years past,
and the price of pulmotors up two
shillings, our English channel op-
erative cables today that no less
than two dozen swimmers are ex-
pected to don their axle grease
overcoats for shot at the treach-
erous 21-mile strip in July.
Such a large entry list indicates
that the long suffering channel is
in for its worst thrashing since
1926. That was the year. you will
remember when everybody but
Madame Schumann-H -Heink and
Charles Evans Hughes made at
least one attempt to save boat fare
between England and France, and
the craze for staying in water as
long as possible reached a new
high.
Spurred by the feats of the chan
mel swimmers substantial citizens
who previously had scorned more
than a glassful of water except on
Saturday night began shooting for
the record of the Robert E. Lee
between st. Louis and New Or
leans. Those that couldn't reach
the Mississippi spent their time
floating around in hotel pools for
days and weeks, and churning
around nearby islands like so many
dizzy tugboatS. Anybody who
couldn't stay afloat for at least
two weeks was considered sissy.
No Profit In 1t
About the only one to gain from
this goofy fad was Gertrude Ed
erie, the butchers daughter, and
the first woman to cross the chan
mel under her own power. And
Gertie's gain was powerful short
lived. Boiled down to it's essential
oils it consisted mainly of lot of
noise, mess of newspaper clip
pings, a speaking acquaintance
with Dudley Field Malone, IA
pounds Of confetti which she man.
aged to salvage from her car after
the Broadway parade, and perma-
nent impairment of her hearing.
Today, Gertie is an obscure
swimming teacher, showing young
sterS how to do the crowl while
doting mothers stand on the side
lines and shout: Kick, Charliei
That's right. Now swim over this
way so mama can see her little
man."
What this years crop of channel
swimmers can gain from a cross
ing, with the exception of lovely
set of cramps and a touch of bron-
chitis, is beyond this department
Their only chance of getting any
money is humping into a sunken
treasure ship on the way across.
Reports that Judge Lands has
ordered an investigation following

REPUBLICAN AND INDEPENDENT PRESS COMMENT, ON ELECTION.
Cabinet Posts the Test. New York Evening Post (RepO

Wall Street has been busy for weeks discount ing" the election of Roosevelt In trying to con- vince others that his election would be catas- trophc, Wall Street has pretty well convinced itself Therefore the panic which MT. Hoover accused of fomenting will simply not take place. We shall probably have difficulties with President Roose- welt, but today, in so far as fear of him is concerned, the stock market is "all washed up and gone to the races"
 Of course, the fight over Roosevelt is going to be to whether he will go conservative go radical The first signal will be the makeup of his Cabinet. Will he appoint as Attorney General administrator of quiet policy will he appoint trust buster? Will he choose Governor Ritche Senator Walsh, the professional prose- cutor?
 We think he will probably be swayed hither and thither and then end up on kind of a middle course We hope at least for that

MAYOR JOE CARSON OF PORTLAND.

Among the election results the Associated Press did not transmit to Alaska the choice in Portland of Joe Carson for Mayor. Joe Carson Joseph K. Carson to the meticulous, the "K' for Kit in honor of his famous kinsman, Kit Carson, the plainsman-is one of the most brilliant young lawyers of Portland He is only forty years of age, but has been for years one of the busiest lawyers practicing at the Portland bar.
 While the Mayoraty in Portland is not parti- san office and the incumbent is chosen regardless of party affiliations Joe Carson is enthusiastic Democrat He the leader of the movement in 1928 to have the Oregon Democracy commit itself against Prohibition and he led the fight in that State for an Al Smith delegation to the Houston convention He was member of the platform committee at the recent Chicago convention and was one of the members of that committee who met in Senator David I. Washs suite at the Con- gress Hotel and whipped into shape the famous repeal plank that caught the Nation by storm when it was adopted in the convention by more than 700 majority.
 Joe Carson will make a good Mayor of Port land. He is able, honest and courageous. He halls from Kentucky, but accompanied his father to Oregon when boy and located with the Carson family at Hood River. He has practiced law in Portland since 1914 We congratulate Portland upon her good and good taste in choosing for Mayo, of the best of her best citizens to succeed Mayor George L. Baker who has headed the mun cpal government of the Oregon metropolis for near, two years. Mayor Baker was not candidat for reelection.
 May Mayor Carson be Mayor as long he wishe to be. He probably will be there as long as Mayo Baker has been unless he be called to go highe which is very likely to occur.
