By stopford Augustus Brooke

A little sun, little rain, A soft wind blowing from the
 West And woods and fields are sweet
 again
 And warmth within the
 mountains breast. So simple is the earth we tread. So quick with love and life her
 frame; Ten thousand years have dawned
 and fled
 And still her magic is the same. A little love, little trust. A soft impulse. a sudden
 dream- And life as dry as desert dust Is fresher than a mountain
 stream. So simple is the heart of man. So ready for new hope and joy; Ten thousand years since it began Have left it younger than boy.
 o-O-o Another one of those optical H. lusions--the closer money is, the harder 1t Is to get.

 They're still arguing about whether George Washington or John Hanson was the first president of the United States. If they keep that up much longer, the only solution will be for the supreme court to hold the Declaration of 1nde- pendence unconstitutoinal.

Hotel and had gone to the office
of the prosecuting attorney at the

SAFE, SAYS
HOOVER
President in Springfield, ILL.,,
Draws Parallel With Crisis
Faced by Lincoln

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Nov. 4
(I.N.S. Here, where stands
the shrine of the immortal
Lincoln, President Hoover de-
clared this afternoon that his
reelection is as essential to the
preservation of the Union as
was the Great Emancipator s
in 1864.
Then, as now, the President de
clared, the country was faced with
"a great calamity" but it "de-
clfned emphatically to turn aside
to untried policies and expert
mental leadership"
NOven1ber 8, 1864
1 With this analogy, Mr. Hoover
asserted:
"The same alternatives are be-
fore the country today that lay
before it in that fI1Oment0uS
campaign of nearly three-quar-
tiers Of a century ago. The
choice that the American people
made in 1864 was made on No
vember 8. The choice they are
called to make in 1882 will be
made on November 3. My fel-
low citizen, can we doubt what
the choice will be?
Men and wonderland / in
clude women because they bore
then, as they do now, large
part of the burdens of that
Strugggle-the support of that
strategy and that leadership
which preserved the union came
from the cOnStancy of the Re-
publican party in its refusal to
be diverted from the leadership
which it had given at that time
and the leadership which it has
given in the last four years to
the solution of a great national
crisis.
GETTYSBURG RECALLED
"The turn in the tide of the
Civil War was made at GettyS-
burg. The turn in the tide in
this crisis was made in the last
winter, and just as after Gettys-
burg long months of continual
battle were required to bring
about the saving of the Union,
in the same manner we must
continue the fight today to re-
cover our prosperity and to pre-
serve the social and political
principles for which Abraham
Lincoln Stood"
With these words the Executive
made his strongest bid of the
campaign for reelection. He
spoke from the same armory
where two weeks ago his Demo-
crat opponent, Franklin D. Roose-
welt, addressed a packed hall, and
he. flayed the New York governor

speaker, was ill in a New York

He carried his protest to Su-

Judge McEvoy granted a motion
to quash and dismiss Tunney'S
petition for a writ of mandamuS
His decision in part said:
"The court is asked to require
and enjOin the respondents to
act otherwise than in accord
ance with the strict statutory
requirements.
"Such action may not be
taken by this court first, because

factue and sale of four per cent beer David Burnet, Commissioner of Internal Revenue who was called as a witness by the Committee, declined to predict how much could be derived from that source by the Federal Government. In 1919, the last year before National Prohibition wiped out legal brewing, 27000o00 gallons of beer paid $117- 100000 in taxes Commissioner Burnet predicted if brewing again legalzed and sale permitted tax revenues from that source would show sub stantal increase over the 1919 figure
 In this connection, the figures of the Prohbi- ton Buraeu on the extent of the illegal brewery business is enlightening In 193o according to this authority, 22000000 gallons of beer were brewed illegally and only $1Oo in taxes was collected. If a tax of S6 per barrel were imposed, suggested by Senator Bingham, the Government would be en- rched by the of $l32oOOOOO each year. That money now goes into the coffers of the bootleggers and rackeeers whose trade has been made profitable by the Eighteenth Amendment.
