NORRIS AND ROOSEv ELT. BOTH PROGRESSIVES, COULD
 TEACH OTHER A LOT!

Washington Governor Roose- velt's pilgrimage to the home of
 Senator George w. Norris in Ne
 braska brought together the brave- est most respected of all the pro-
 eressiyes with the only candidate of progressive tendencies who has been conceded chance at the
 presidency since Woodrow Wilson stroke across the political horl-
 zon.
 Each could have told the other
 quite a lot, although probably neither did.
 Norris might have told Roose-
 welt what sort of an experience Tt
 is to be absolutely fearless in poli- tics, to stand through a lifetime
 for principles and cnviction In
 the fact of every conceivable ob-
 stacle and pressure, to refuse con-
 sistently to play politics for votes or personal gain,
 And Roosevelt, making an open bid in the west for support of all the progressives to whom Norris IS a hero, might have explained 10 Norris the impossibility of being elected president without compro--
 missing, trimming, evasion and
 learning the art of never displeas- ing anybody. ., Norris probably understands all that because he showed no hes1ta : ton in again bolting the republi- can party to support the demo- cratic candidate. Just the same. here was a marked contrast pe- tween the battle-scarred, hundred per cent courageous Nebraskan and the candidate whose enemies un- animously chorus, with some help
 from his friends, that he has mo guts."
 Norris stands out in marked
 contrast with anyone you can thinks of in public life. Other re-
 publican progressives merely sulk in their tents, idle and 1neffectlVe, hut Norris is an incorrigible war rior.
 Nearly 25 years ago he was a congressman leading the fight that broke up the czaristic rule of | Uncle Joe Cannon in the House of Representatives. In that fight In | the Payne-Aldrich tariff struggle and by his strategy which made the Ballinger investigation. possible he first cut loose from the party rewards of patronage and other favors which regular politicians consider so important.
 Probably nothing he ever did 1 required more courage than his opposition to American entry into
 the World war. He spoke against
 it, voted against it and underwent
 ostracism. Threatened with vIo-
 lence, he returned to Nebraskas to tell his constituents why the 1 war was a bad thing for the Amer
 ican people and was vindicated by
 reelection in 1918.
 Since the war he has been fight
 ing special privilege, with emphasis

against the power trust," and the reactionary wing of his party. It never made any difference to Nor- ris whether or not his stand was the unpopular one.
 He bolted his party in 1926 when he entered Pennsylvania to campaign for democratic candi- date against Boss Bill Ware, who had received the republican sena- torial nomination as a result or huge expenditures. Later he sue cessfully led the senate fight to keep Ware out f his seat.
 No one was surprised to see Nor ris bolt Hoover and declare for Al Smith in 1928 because by that time everyone knew that he would always be honest enough to risk his political life in order to be true to his convictions. He thought Smith would be a better man for the country than Hoover. Smith was wet and Norris dry, but the senator held social-economic issues most important.
 Declaring for a wet Catholic candidate in such state as Ne braska was extremely dangerous politically, but two years later Nor ris was sent back to Washington with another big majority despite attempts of high administration republicans to trick him out of both nomination and election. r His endorsement of Roosevelt this year was taken as a matter of course. But now he has reversed his dry position of many years and urges light wines and beer. He thus becomes probably the first member of congress to change front for any other reason than political expediency. He finally decided, with extreme reluctance, that the noble experiment" was A. flop.

MERRITT HIGHWAY PROJECT
 ENDORSED
Bridgeport Telegraph The Fairfield County Planning


 The Fairfield County Planning association has endorsed the plan to build the Merritt highway at once and to make it a toll road in order to qualify for a loan from the Reconstruction Finance cor poration for this purpose. As Sem ator Albert Lavery explained to the directors in advocating this purpose. As Senator Albert Law cry explained to the directors in advocating this procedure, it would be an entering wedge" for action by responsible state officials to the end that something might be &C., complished.
 The County Planning associa- tion has stood steadfastly in back of the Merritt highway plan since it's inception seven or eight years ago. The judgment of the ,direc- tors that the present is the ideal time for the building of this high way, coincides with the judgment of every person who has given the project serious consideration. The real difficulty lies in inducing some responsible official,' to bor- row Senator Lavery's term, to bring it to a head. If the gover- nor, the highway commissioner. and all other responsible officials now in office are either neutral or indifferent, it is hopeless for the citizens to expect action, however much they may desire the consum- nation of the project.
 The resons for action were very we'll summed up by Senator Law cry. The immediate building of this road will'giv employment to thousands at time when employ ment is badly needed. By dividing the work up among a number of contracting firms the whole high way can be finished immediately instead of being built piecemeal during a long term of years. A small would pay the interest, and gradually retire the bonds issued for construction purposes. The users would pay for the road. af. ter which it would be thrown open as free highway. If this process is successful with the Holland tubes. the George Wash ington bridge. the Philadelphia Camden bridge and similar struc- lures, 1t ought to be successful with the Merritt highway as well

After prohibition, what? How many times have we seen this query in our news papers or heard it voiced by the incredulous who must be shown before they are con- vinecd' We'll, here's one answer to 1t. Kentucky now supplies the states with the great share of its medicinal whiskey partc- ularly its bourbon, with Maryland provid- ing the rye. Kentucky has been known for years for many things, notably its blue grass beautiful women. fine horses. and good bourbon. It now can be printed that in government warehouses in Kentucky there are 6,30000 gallons of pre-war whiskey. none less than IS years old. In charred white oak (no less) barrels are 6000.OOO gallons more. all made under government permission. but of recent distillaton. As matter of strict record 72 per cent of all the bourbon made in the good old U. S. A. comes from "Kaintuck." And by the way did you know that w. Virginia has just legal ized the sale of prescription whiskey. lndi. ana will follow suit this winter. The above won't interest those of us merely concerned about the return of light wines and beers. For their ears alone listen to French dis patches stating that champagne can be bought in Paris for 8 francs (3z cents to you. you nnny). The wine markets are riddled to pieces.

 I can state as an absolute physiological fact that no massage pounding, manual or me chanical no rubbing vibrating or compress sion or other manipulation or passive move ment will appreciably reduce or increase the size or development of any part of the human body.

 Finally can state without fear of competent contradiction, that the only means by which satisfactory and. healthful reduction can be procured in any is rational dieting, with daily exercise suitable to the individual cond- tion and, in certain cases, specific medication by the physician to correct giandular or inter- nal secretion deficiencies.
