With His Comrades.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)


 The remains of Colonel Robert Green Ingersoll just have been borne to fitting place in beautiful Arlington, to lie with his comrades of other days in the National metropolis.
 There may be those who will take issue with Colonel Ingersolls Mistakes of Moses" but none will deny his distinction soldier, lawyer, his eloquence generally his wt-caustic kindly or the force, beauty and idealsm of what perhaps, is entitled to be known the greatest speech of its kind ever delivered
 It was Colonel Ingersols Cincinnati speech at the Republican National Convention held in this city in 1876, nominating James G. Blaine for PreS- dent, that much extended the orators fame mak- ing him instantly the idol of millions. It a matchless effort It will outlive his Mistakes of Moses"-wil be recalled long Presidents are to be nominated in America.
 Ideast to the core, the great orator here in Cincinnati christentd his hero as the "plumed knight" On Ingersolls golden tongue Blaine rode down the lists of a great political tourney wear ing the whole flower of a blameless life"
 In his day Ingerso anathema to orthodox muttudes, but today he perhaps would be well comed in many pulpitS, where many other men now exploit views critical and revolutionary as those of the soldier-orator.
 In any event, Cincinnati well afford to drop a flower of memory for one who mmutably identified this city with of his outstanding achievements in the way of speech portrayal.

GOVERNOR AND FORMER GOVERNOR
 NOT so FAR APART.

President Hoover declared fin angry tone" that the Garner relief bill is pork barrel" measure. Speaker Garner retorted that the pork barrer' charge came from President Hoover with poor grace after he had demanded that Congress cooperate with him in passing the Reconstruction Finance Corporation Act The Speaker continued to say that it is just as logical refer to that act as pork barrel" for banks insurance companies and others as to refer to the Garner relief bill a pork barrel" .,, f..
 The Speaker seems to endorse the contention of Gov Roosevelt that the Presidents relief proposals were in the direct interest of big fellows rather than the common peope-a contention that reused the ire of Al Smith And that suggests, the Garner relief measure follows closely suggestions of the redoubtable Al It is possible that the difference between the Governor of New York and his pre- decessor is not great after all.
 The fact is that neither Gov Roosevelt nor Speaker Garner condemned the Reconstruction Finance Corporation legislation It was necessary legislation, doubt but they both belive that it was not enough The banks had be allowed to thaw out frozen assets to prevent them from going further in the mire and to enable them to be full to the public However, immediate help is needed at the bottom to put the forgotten men" to work at That is why Gov.

A Dangerous Situation.
Manchester Guardian.l

At a time when a seasonal rise in employment should be showing itself it is very disappointing to find from the latest returns of the Ministry of Labor that in the month ending April 25 the num- Der of unemployed increased by 84,S49. The disap- pointment is perhaps felt most keen ly by those sanguine Protectionsts who have been telling us that tariffs at their very advent had stimulated trade and industry. In Germany during the same period the number of the unemployed slightly de- clined. There no signs of any alleviation of the position in the United States. MT. E. F. Mo Grady of the American Federation of Labor has just warned the Senate Commission that if some thing is not done to check the advance of starva- tion "the doors of revolution going to be thrown wide open" The dangers of the situation which exists in almost every country of the world are illustrated this week by small uprising in Yugo-Savia Two thousand hungry peasants from the villages of Bosnia raded wheat and maize stores in the town of Brijedor. The police had to repulse them with fixed bayonets

 After his first exclamation, he allowed her to pilot him across the street in their accustomed way, but when she turned with him in the direction of Mrs. Bigger's build ing, he protested.
 Now you just run off home, !" he commanded. T can manage "a straight bit of pavement all right; it was the crossing that got me. That was all. You'll have to walk, I'm afraid Your hearse seems to have trundled on with out you"
 She inspected him anxiously. He looked better, stronger, in spite of his recent fright; but he didn't look at all happy. Not in the least as she had thought he would look when Georgie was home at last.
 You know Georgie is back?" she asked-and found that he was asking the question of her, word by word. Involuntarily, they stop per and stood laughing. Why aren't you with her?" she asked when the quaint, companionable moment had passed.

MILLION DOLLARS
IN SIGHT FOR MAX
Walker, Dempsey, Sharkey in
Line for Bouts-WiIIing
to Wait for Jack.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
N TEW YORK, January 5.~-Max
Schmeling is back again. to
V undertake a fistic program he
hopes will earn him $l000.000
in the next nine months.
It's a far cry to that day, late In
1928, when Schmeling, then an I'M
known German box fighter, first ar
rived in New York. Since then he has
won the worlds heavyweight champion
ship and successfully defended it
against Young Stribling. He already
has made a fortune.
Der Make has three title defenses
in mind for this season, against Mickey
Walker, Jack Dempsey and Jack Shar-
key, but the chances are he will find
the game will not be able to support
more than two in the style to which
heavyweight championships have been
accustomed.
Schmeling'S first defense will be
against Walker at Miami, Fla, late in
February, probably February 26.
Believing he will have no especial
trouble in disposing of Walker, Schme-
ling is looking ahead toward a possible
meeting with Dempsey in June, prob
ably in the Yankee Stadium here
If Dempsey is ready to attempt a
comeback at that time, then Schme-
ling, in the event of victory over the
old Manassa Mauler, would be ready
to give Sharkey ''shot" at the title.
But if Dempsey would rather wait
until September, then Schmeling will
wait for him. There will be no match
in June and Sharkey will have to wait
another year for chance at the title
he handed Max by hitting him low in
their famous four-round bout in the
Yankee Stadium June, 1880.
Schmeling, now weighing 1872 pounds,
appears in excellent condition.
