More than 700 workers crowded Hun
garian Hall here last night for two
hours in sweitering heat in the
biggest workingclass meeting ever
held in this company -owend town, to
hear James w Ford, vice. presidential
candidate of the Communist Party,
Several Numbered additional work

IN the hall waited outside for the
duration Of the speech. A large force
of police attempted unsuccessfully to
intimidate the workers.
Ford exposed the new talk of the
economic revival now flooding the
press as fake election promises of the
same character as the countless pre-
yious predictions of economic reviyals
made by the Hoover government.

sentence, and then tell us in plain
English how they intend to over
come the causes.

do read it will discover that they
are wasting time long before they

Another Hoover?

Theoretically, a national political convention is
supposed to express the will of the delegates as
sembled.
Actually, the delegates scenery. They sing
songs and wave standards and eat peanuts and en-
Joy their fling. But what comes forth is not from
them.
One writes the ticket. If the convention is
convention of the "ins' that man is the President
If of the "outs," he is the who wins the nomina
ton. On occasions, as when Smith in 1928 did
not agree with what the delegates in Houston had
done. the nominee defes the delegates-and so the
platform, nevertheless, reflects the nominee

words of Herbert Hoover Each vague and elusive
line is his from the introduction to that classic
sion about submission not limited to retention or
repeap'-and Oh to the declaration in behalf of Lo,

the man who heads the Republican party.
And so will the Democratic document mirror a
man.
Will that be another Hoover?

Gratis fool him in their choice. Hoo
yer expects to face Franklin Roose-
welt.
I am not myself a conservative or
inclined in that direction, and yet
I think that the scuttling of the
Hoover myth and the plain label
put upon his present attitude con-
stitute the greatest public service
which the President yet has rem
dered to the United States. For the
first time in years, America may
have a chance to stand up and be
counted on the really vital and fun
damental issues of government.
I say may" because there is an
obvious catch in the opportunity
1t takes two to constitute a clear
cut duel. No reasonable man will
deny that Herbert Hoover accurate

Of view, but the question remains as
to whether the Democrats will put

cellent man in many ways, but he

Every Element of the Erist-
ing Situation Challenges
the Democrats to Come
ont With q Short, Snappy
Platform and a Long
Headed Candidate.
NEW YORK, June 1S.-Repub-
1 Y Leans have set the stage for
just such candidate as Alfred E.
Smith. Their pussyfooting calls for
practical, aggressive leadership by
way of contrast. If the parties
won't differ on issues, they at least
can differ in style. Nor is style so
inconsequential as some people
think.
The style of quibbling, procrasti-
mating and sidestepping has cost
this country untold trouble. 1t is
time that we quit the idea of not
doing anything until forced.
Unless they are content to be imi
tators, the Democrats have their

ing situation challenges them to
come out with a short, Snappy plat
form and long-headed candidate.

Roosevelt Not Liberal

TN spite of his protestations. Roose-
i welt is not a liberal under any
exacting definition of the term. 1t
is true that in the middlewest he is
accepted by many as the very sym
boil of this school of thought.
That's not good enough. If the
election is to mean anything, it must
be man to man and not myth
against symbol. We have had our
share Of sham battles already.
Curiously enough, I think that
Smith and Hoover might provide
an almost perfect cast for an honest
knock down and drag out struggle.
I will admit that in their last meet
ing many extraneouS and irrelevant
issues were introduced. Chiefly, !
think, by the Republican campaign
erS.
But credit Herbert Hoover with
enough political acumen to know
that the same trick hardly will suf-
fee now. He could not expect to
win again by the expedient of pro-
claiming himself the leader in a
holy war.
No amount of evasion upon the
part of any or all the candidates
can keep the unemployment issue
from the center Of the stage. And
on this the Republican platform is

ORIGIN of Comets

A NEW theory about comets has
L n been advanced by Professor
VsessviatSky of the Astronomical
Institute Of Moscow.
1t generally has been assumed by
astronomers that a large number
of comets which revolve in fairly
small orbits, as the orbits of comets
go, were captured" by Jupiter.
These comets have been thought
to be ones which passed close to
Jupiter and so were affected by that
planets gravitational pull that they
henceforth revolved in restricted
orbits, one end of which circled the
sun and the other end of which was
in the general neighborhood of
Jupiter'S orbit
There are about fifty comets in
Jupiter's family"
The Russian astronomer attacks
the capture theory on the following
grounds: Among comets in general.
about so per cent are moving in
their orbits in the same direction as
the planets, while about so per cent
= - ~~%SHA . IL OiAC OPPOolbE QlIGtJIOQ.
But among the Jupiter comets.
every one moves in the same direc-
ton as the planets.
This leads Professor Vsessviatskv
TO conclude that these comets were
expelled or erupted from the planet
Jupiter. He also believes that such
eruptions still might occur.
Some astronomers have. from
time to time, suggested that the sur
lace OF Jupiter still might be in a
molten state. Today, however. most
astronomers think that the surface
temperature is far below zero.
At any rate, the new theory
should lead, not only to a closer
STUDY OF the comets, but to add
tional observation of Jupiter

Unusual Chance

A CLOSE approach to the Rein
Il muth object would furnish as
tronomerS with an unusual oppor-
tunity to make more accurate meas
urementS of distances within the
solar system.
It is an easy matter, from the
laws of Kepler, to write the relative
distances Of all objects within the
solar system.
If, then, one can be measured
with great accuracy. all the others
can be reduced to the same scale of
accuracy. To date, Eros has pro-
vided the best opportunity.
At present, according to DR.. Frost,
the measurement of the distance
between the earth and the sun, APP
proximately 100000 miles, is be-
lieved to be accurate within $4,000
miles.
Measurements with the aid of the
Reinmuth object ought to give an
accuracy within 10000 miles, he be-
lieves.
1t also is apparent that the close
approach of the Reinmuth object
will give astronomers an excellent
opportunity to study the object it
self.
Studies of both the large planets
and the asteroids, or little planets"
will be accelerated by the building
of the 200-inch telescope.
This telescope, while twice as
large as the 1OO-inch telescope, will
be ten times as powerful. 1t will,
therefore. be very useful in clearing
up many problems which at present
perpleX astronomers.
1t will, for example, reveal details
just on the edge of visibility in
the 100-inch telescope.
DR.. Henry Norris Russell, famous
astronomer of Princeton university,
has expressed the opinion that it
would be possible to make a weather
map of Mars with the aid of the
2O0-inch telescope.

Nearer Home

California doubtless deserves all the condemnation
which has been heaped upon her for the failure to
see that elementary justice is done to Mooney and
Billings.
Yet the papers have revealed to our attention an
even more absurd case in Pennsylvania. In the issue
involving Mooney and Billings, somebody was killed
Indeed, nine we're killed and forty injured. The
outrage which they were convicted falsely was one
of the most arocious in our national history There
was some psychological basis for public indignation
and judicial savagery.
In Pennsylvania, one Israel Lazar still is in prison
Under four-year sentence imposed a result of
criticism of President Coolidge and his cabinet back
during the campaign of 1928
Lazar is a Communist and supported William T.
Foster. He arrested tried and sentenced on the
testimony of policeman who alleged that Lazar
called Coolidge and Kellogg a bunch of hypocrites"
The supreme court of the United States has refused
to review his sentence and Lazar must serve out his
term.
Lazar convicted on the basis of the criminal
syndicaliSm law of Pennsylvania. 1t may be bad
taste to call the President and the secretary of state
hypocrites, but it certainly is not legitimate prison
offense Even less should it be so regarded in the
heat of a political campaign.
Moreover, if anybody is going to be punished for
such epithets let everybody Similar worse state
ments frequently were made during the 1928 cam
paign by distinguished political leaders Professors
of history and international relations daily express
such sentiments in their classes or writings.
If all critics went to the hoosegow such an absurd
violation of civil rights and personal freedom would
be rectifed quickly.
Students of American history will not need to be
told that any such procedure directly at variance
not only with the Bill of Rights but also with the
tradition and practice of American political life
Even the venerable Franklin and the sainted
Washington were vilihed by eminent Americans dur
ing the contest the ratification of the Constitu
ton. Jefferson attacked bitterly only in the
campaign of 1900 but also in that of 1904 when he
was chief executive.

Bunk Reign Near End

THERE never was better chance
l. for the Democratic party to re-
establish itself and do the country
real service.
The one Republican hope is that
President Grant was right.
Why not swap roles, and let Re-
publicans do the laundering this
trip?
The people want leadership. They
failed to get it from the Republican
convention. Week after next, the
Democratic convention will have its
turn. If the people fail to get it
then, they will have drawn a blank
in this campaign.
Don't take the possibility as a
joke, because it is anything but.
The American people have en-
dured about all that should be
asked of human nature during the
last three years. They have shown
wonderful patience and courage, but
they can hardly be expected to eat
and drink bunk much longer.
