Washington.---The election cafn- paign may be over, but the hysteria fingers on.
 Here in the national capital quite q few folks are graveIy wor. of invasions by militant groups ington in active protest against unemployment and other series effects of the depression.
 This city remembers vividiy tho visit Of the bonus army and of tho communicated hunger march- CTS last year--marches with such snenacing possibilitics as might have bred rather horrible specta- cies had they not been tactfuiiy handled by q cicar-sighted chief Of police who is no longer on the job.
 l;
 No one, let 1t Do said hhstily, iu worrying over tho prospect of revolution. Federal troops can Do counted on to disperse any mob that is likely to come, along, in case President Hoover deems it necessary to call thcm out, as he did in the case of the bonus army.
 But there is much apprehension of some messy situations. The spectacle of . large mass of the unemployed in the capital being driven off by soldiers is not 6 very pretty. one and 1t will be especially unwelc0me to tho people who have to live in this beautiful, quiet town.
 Nor does the Idea of placing heavy police guards at aii the highway entrances to the District of Columbia for the winter appeal either to citizens or officials. s
 Tho hunger. march planned by communists for early December is now causing the most concern.
 There are reports of other pro- posed marches and one of them is

ELECT BY DIRECT VOTE
(Dridgcport Times. .stnr)

 Whom Alfred D. Smith, in the new magazine which he edits, ap- peaIs for abolition Of the nntiquat- cd electoral college and the elec- ton of presidents by direct pop u1ar vote. ho is simply calling for q change in our political system which 1g long overdue.
 The electoral college, 1t must bc remembered, was put into tine Con- stitution in the first place in order to take tho election of q president as far away from the people as was possible in q democracy. The electors were to deliberate and vote as freely as tho U. H. scnntc: even today, legally, they could go directly counter 10 tho wishes of tho people who elected them.
 That function of the electoral college, however, has long since been forgotten. It is n rubber stamp and 1t serves no good pur. pose. Why not abolish it ma elect our presidents by a direct popular vote. It is hard to find q valid argument against lt.

sure to materiaiize with hundreds or thousands of farmers--a pro- fcssedly non-commurist move- fnent which will demand tax and debt moratoriums but is not yet regarded as likely source of se- rioug disturbance.
 The hunger march is being care- fully organized. Its radical lead- CTS have bcen working on 1t since the visit of about 1,5e0 communist. led hunger fnarchers last year and it ia not unlikely that between 5000 and 10000 hunger rnarchers will try to got to Washington.
 Communists are making much of the London riots and some of them regard their Chicago demon- stration as q sort of rehearsal for the national march"
 whether tlIerc is to be rioting in tho Nghadow of the Capitol probably will depend on the pos lice and the administration. The communists arc not planning any violence, although their ideas of non-vIoient demonstrations arc sometimes rather extreme.
 Their primary aim Is to con- vince the unemployed and the poverty-stricken farmers that there Is no hope of relief or bumano treatment from the existing au- thoritics. They are not dumb enough to suppose that they could upset the government without first creating q mass hatred.
 But when their demonstrations are met by violence the commuf- ist leaders apparently are more pleased than others, because they believe that forcible suppression aids their cause among the "downtroddcn" masses to whom they appeal. Privately they will assure you that the authorities can have trouble if they come looking for 1t. And the Likelihood of bciligerence on both sides is the chief factor which causes to fear an un- Dfeaaant nerlod

A Book a Day
by BRUCE CATION
Nation Itself Is Real
 Hero" of This Move

Tho United States of America is serving as the "hcro" of tho mod ern novel more and more frequent iy, these days. John Dos Passos showed how it could be done by writing books in which tho nation itself was, so to speak,, the central character around which the plot evolved: and now Icane Zug8mith, in Meyer Enough" has done the sane thing.
 Incidentally. Miss Zugsmith has enjoyed somthing of MT Dos Pas- sos success: for Never Enough" is q remarkably strong book, as human and ns absorbing as your daily paper, filled with some of the most vivid characters that have appeared in American fiction in many day.
 In this book she studies the en- reers of divers { Americans: m adroit and senual politician, gangster, q drifting cx-reporter, an earnest lad who is trying to fight off tuberculosis and write Il book no philosophy and write q book on philosophy, q young woman of easy virtue, q frustrated shop girl, m energetic Communist. m actress --and perhaps dozen others.
 Their lives are nter-eonnected only casually. They drift in and out, of the story at random; per- haps you are getting q bakcr'a doz. on Of short stories loosely tidd to- gether. But what makes the book guccecr is tho fact that they are nil very renl people. You don't get confused because you don't for- get any of them.
 And tut of 1t all yal get n sym pathetic and deeply interesting picture of the last 15 years of Americhn loft. "Never Enough" is one of the bright spots on the fall fiction program.
 It ig published by Liyeright and sells for 92.

COMMEMORATIVE STAMPS
(Iiurtford cot,rnnt),

(Hurtf0rd Courant)
 Philatelists know better than VIC how many new Issues of stamps tho postoffice department has brought out in the last year, but tho number must be considerable, enough Ut least to indicate that the habit has grown since the issuu Of q three-ccnt stamp with an en- grnving of q locomotive marked the opening of tho Union pneiiic Railroad. The department expert enced q philntcllc dcbnucli in 1S02-3 to mark tho Columbian Ex- position in Chicago, as it issued commemorative stamps for all dc- nominations then printed. and did 1t With q fine disregard as to tho amount of paper used. for the stamps were generous in size.
 That over with, perhaps tho re7 lief of business men who wore not interested in new designs, ,--tho postofice department lived soberly for . tino, with only occasionni changes in design or color. but this year, now throwing to its close, has seen q renewal 10 mark the WAsht inRton Bicentennial. The designs. though not the color, were altered on tho most used denominations, and in their turn new designs have appeared. such as the olympic and the very recent Webster and Penn stamps. We dare soy other nnni- versarics and other issues will Dc forthcoming.
 IL may De, and probably is, prof. itable for tho government, ns tho cost of engraving ig not great ng compared with eertnin other fed- oral expenditures. With phiiatel- ists increasing in number, tho post- office department makes money, because ik renders no service to s0me buyers in return for tho pur- chase Of stamp. Tho stamps bought by thcm enter collection md nre not expected to aid in tho transmission of mall. Thus on the first day saie of tho Penn stamps It Chester, Penn, wo are told that 70,00O Wero sold while more than 100000 were bought in tho post offico In Philadelphia.
 Many of these went out on what phiiafoiists term first day covers, but many moro will remain un. cancelled and, in due time, nit will appreciate in vniue; 60, while the government loses nothing the buy CTS gain. Tho issue Of postage stamps of the conlmemorative typo may Dc expected 10 continue, efIlco the public demands th0fn.

Canadian liquor stock securities all boomed with the announcement of the election of Franklin D. Roosevelt. All stocks of th's nature were in heavy demand on the market Tuesday and Wednesday. Canadian officials were quick to declare that tbe Dominion's ban on export of liquors to the United States would follow right after revision of this countfys Velstead Act We presume as much but if the Canadian dis. tilers and brewers can beat the Americans al flooding the naton with Iegalized pro- ducts they will have to have their pro- ducts waiting at the boundary line ready for shipment across t. There are any number Of bfewefles in this country thai could produce at almost an instants notice the old time brews 10 which 70 many of Us were accustomed. In an interview recently 2 prominent brewer of famous Milwaukee drought declared that if the Volstead Act was modified at the moment be was taking in 15 minutes bis brewery could put a legal product on sale, That is easily explained. The many nearebeer products that are sold today are obtained from beer of higher al- eohole content It must be de.aleholized before being sold. To eliminate this opcr. ation requires no time or effort. Prior to passage of the export ban in Io30 Canada enjoyed considerable beer trade with this country. In 1929 t was well over S5,. 100000 With government revenue de. creased anything to boost 1t up is as wei. come ss the flowers in May.

Regions Instead of States

The creation of large unified economic regions instead of states is the next step in mans quest for self-government, say a group of political scientists. The idea is to replace the states by more logical units each of which would be an area within which geographic fact economic organiza. tion social custom and political interest have established and fostered sense of cohesive ness and community of interest which dis. tingusbes it from any other area" The states it is said have never done that and certainly do not do it now
 The experts cite is an example of the sort of thing they mean the division of the na- ton now into nine areas by the army. l4 areas by the Prohibition Enforcement Blu. reau, 12 areas by the Federal Reserve. Farm Loan and Home Loan systems. and 0 circuits for the purposes of the federal courts. The system might eliminate some dupli. cation of public offices and along with them some items of public expense. Each region would control its own agriculture. fishing mines, water power. maintenance of ordes liquor health. and 50 on The national government would handle foreign affairs. currency. and credit. justice commerce, labor and similar fields.
 It s an interesting idea. It may be greatly needed reform in national life as the pfoposed borough or county govern ment plans seem to be in community life. However, getting vested political and eco. homie interests to consent to modification of the present arrangement. which would in- vove modifying their power, looks pretty difficult And there would have to be some compensation for loss of state pride.

LAST LAMB pUoK' CONGRESS
(IIartford r,imeal

(Hartf0rd Timea)
 In nil probability the United States senators and representation who will be elected on November 5 will attend but one session. Of congress instead of the eustomary two sessions. Tho reason is that tho likely ratification by the re- quired number of states Of tho constitution will eliminate the SO. called short session of tho next sftion.
 sixteen states have aIroady rati. lied the amendment, nbolishine the session Of congraes, held soon after an election In which many Of tta members may have been dofeated. AS thirty-tW0 gtlte legislatures will meet this winter, the necessnry twenty additional notifications wifi unquesti0nhbiy be forthcomihg aa the lame duck afnendment ls fa6. ing the little, # any, oppoalfion. Early in December, the iagt of tho "lh1ic duck" sessions will open. probably composed of the Jareeet number of "lnme ducks' which ever undertook to Iegislate for thia nation. As they sit they will wit- ness one state after another voting to eliminate their kind from fhe federal government establishment.
 When tho amendment has been rntiDed, ng expected, the new coii- 9resg VIII meet, unless called in special session, not in December, legd, hs under the old provisions, but on January ], f0s4; and its. s!iecessor elected n November Of tsary, 1od6, Thus tho new coneress will hold but one session ri fhe course Of 1D34 and will vote but one aet of appropriation bills in. stead Of tho customary two federal
