DON'T QUOTE ME

Washington. Nov 4.--(UP)-The presidential waiting room in Union Station across the plaza from the Capitol has had more use in the last few weeks thaa in all the rest of the last two years.
 No one but the president may use this special room. It has Q portico all of it's own and is we'll removed from the main entrance through which daily streams of travellers pass.
 For months on end it's spread eagle and the shield and seals of the lands highest office stare down on bare Mosaic floors. But when the president travels, it becomes a cepter of intense activity. Uni- formed police guard every ap- proach. Strong-muscled detectives and secret service men are on the alert. Ropes are stretched at a respectful distance.
 Seldom has a president walked through that room to begin a trip as momentous as that on which MT Hoover departed yesterday. He was setting out on his sixth trip of the campaign-a trip from which he will return either as the next president or the next ex-presi- dent.
 Many places in Washington are reserved especially for the presi- dent. Theaters and large meet ing halls have presidential boxes. They have been little used during Mir Hoover's administration.
 Mir Hoover while president has never gone Nto the theater. Mrs Hoover, however, often occupies the presidential box at concerts.
 Workmen dismantling old wall nut partitions in the senate press gallery could have made a sale to D Washington speakeasy proprietor if they had been so minded.

 "Is that stuff for sale?" he in- quired. 1T could use 15-foot sec- tion. I'm going to open a new speakeasy and that walnut would made Q handsome bar"

|CLASSFORD HAD
 HIS CHANCE ON
 THE BONUS ARMY
Former Chief of Police at the Capital Explains How Bonus Men Were Driven From City

Philadelphia, Nov A. (UP)- Brigadier General Pelham D. Glassford renewed his tattack on the Washington administration for it's eviction of the bonus army here last night with the charge that the veterans were tanta1ized into a show of resistance so troops could be called.
 The retired army officer ad- dressed 5000 persons who packed the Metropolitan Opera house, while 25,0O0 more damned sur- rounding streets, listening to am- plifiers. Glassford described what he called "the inside story of the battle of Washington" and con- tradicted President Hoover's state- ment that troops were called "to assist authorities to restore order" ,"
 ''The real objective" Glassford declared, twas made known to me by General MacArthur while the troops were on their way, he said:
 "'We are going to break the back of the B. B. F. within short time. We will move down Penn- sylvania avenue, sweep through the billets there, and then clean out the other camps. The opera LlOu WILL De COuLlUuOuSs IL WAiA 1Ab be done tonight
 Then 0Iassford described the eviction in these words:
 Armed with the most modern implements of warfare, the peace- time army of our present com- mander-in-chief, Herbert Hoover, drove from the national capital at the point of the bayonet, the dis D~ Atua end AAafffaIdn army of Woodrow Wilson,"
 He said he knew that for weeks troops had been held in readiness and given special training for the eviction.
 Glasford described his efforts to provide the veterans with shelter and food, for he said nothing leads more directly to disorder and disturbance than hunger"
 Tt was either feed them or fight them," he continued. "Ccnsequent- ly tolerance and sympathy were necessary. In this policy had taken a leaf from the book of MT Herbert Hoover in the humani- tartan relief work he accomplished in Belgium and Russia. The out standing difference in this case is that the relief was not for foreign CTS, but for American citizens who had served their country in the greatest war in history, many of them decorated for val0r."
 He praised the resourcefulness of the veterans and their disci- pline. which he said was so good that 1t required only n staff of five police officers to be assigned to the army.

when Buster reached school with
the bottle of water under his coat.
The Lady Mouse Teacher was there
at her desk but she did not know
what Buster had He went to his
seat, lessons began and when Billie
Bushytail, the squirrel boy, was
spelling hickory nut. all of a sud-
den Buster took the sprinkling
bottle and sprayed some water on
Billie, whose seat was nearby.
"Ouch!" cried the squirrel boy,
Whats the matter?" asked Miss
Mouse.
It's raining in here" chartered
Billie. I'm all wet!"
1t was so funny that Buster
couldn't help laughing out loud and
then he dropped the sprinkling
bottle on the floor and of course,
then the teacher saw it.
Bring it to my desk. Miss
Mouse told Buster and then, not
feeling quite so funny, the rabbit
boy took the bottle of water, with
its sprinkling cork. to the teachers
desk. This wasn't a very nice
thing for you to do, Buster said
Miss Mouse. II shall have to ask
you to stay in after school,
Billie the squirrel dried his fur
where Buster had sprinkled water
on him and the lessons were started
again. Then, all of sudden, Uncle
Wiggily hoped into the school. He
had been passing and thought he
would call The first thing MI.
Longears saw was the sprinkling
bottle on the mouse teachers s desk.
Why, how did Nurse James
sprinkling bottle get here?" asked
Uncle Wiggily.
oh, one of your little rabbits
brought it to school by mistake, p"
said Miss Mouse. Very kindly she
did not tell Busters name and he
was glad Of this.
We'll, as long as I'm here" Went
on Uncle Wiggily, II may as well
take Nurse James sprinkler bottle
back home with me. She will need
it," so Miss Mouse gave it to him
and away he hoped to his bunga-
low with the bottle Of water in his
paw. Perhaps l may have an adj
venture with it," said Mr.. Longears.
He did not have long to wait. All
at once, as he was hopping past
bosky dell, which is tangled place
in the bushes, out popped the Bob
Cat with his silly little tail.
Now I have you!" mewed the
Bob Cat to the rabbit gentleman
Not yeti cried Uncle Wiggily in
his jolly way. I'm going to wet
you in an April shower. Ha, Hal
"Ha! Hal laughed the Bob Cat.
THE ky is blue, there are no
clouds, so how can you wet me
with an April shower? You cant!"
Yes I cani' shouted Mr.. Long
ears. He took Nurse James sprink
ling bottle full OF water and doused
the Bob Cat with it from head to
tail. And the Bob Cat, being very
much afraid of water. like all cats,
gave a loud NEW and ran away.
Nurse James sprinkler made a fine
April shower and saved the rabbit
9entlemon.
So if the automobile will stop

SELECTION or JUDGES

CHIEF JUSTICE WILLIAM H. WASTE,
l. Of the California supreme court. the
highest judicial officer in the State of
California, is quoted in public state
ment as advocating a change in the
method Of selecting judges.
Condemning the present method of
choosing judges by popular election, JUS
tice Waste urges instead, adoption OF the
English system, whereby judges are ap-
pointed to the bench for life.
Nor does Judge Waste look with favor
on appointment of Judges by the COVER
nor, the procedure now followed when
there is a vacancy. Popular election and
appointment by the governor, in the
opinion of the presiding Judge of the su-
preme court, offer too many possibilities
for political influence.
1T too often happens, he Is quoted
as saying, that the winner of a contest
for a judgeship is the one who is pow
erful politically or socially instead of the
one who is best qualified for the place.
The showy man or the good mixer may
be a good campaigner, but it does not
follow that he will make good Judge
Thinking citizens will agree with the
jurist in this.
Nothing is added to the dignity of our
courts by the spectacle of Judges having
10 come down from the bench every so
often and assume the duties of a ward
heller" as they go about the country
pursuing the usual activities OF the poll
tician. All of us know that campaign
ing for office is bound to be mixed up
with political debts and obligations. A
Judge should be free from such lnflu-
ences and he never can be entirely free
while the present method OF electing Is
followed.
1t is really surprising and to the credit
of the men now occupying judicial bench
es throughout the state, that there IS so
little Of the undesirable in their careers
on the bench. A few have slipped from
the path Of rectitude but the great ma
iority of California judges possess an
integrity that is above reproach.
Eventually California will wake up to
the truth of Judge Wastes viewpoint.
It's Judges will be appointed the same as
they now are in many eastern states, and
good as California judges are now, they
will be even better when they hold their
office untrammeled by political mflu-
ences or political obligations.
One week from today Ell Centre IS to
choose three councilmen. No voter should
be "too busy" to get to the polls.
The Observation-Disclosures city area is
raising a fine crop-a new paved nigh
way. And even the detours are good.
