What is more to the point, however,
and the force that probably moves
them most, is the fact that the
italian bachelor is losing in popular
esteem. And popular esteem has
been the main sustenance for bache-

BECAUSE of some Incompetent
ID sible tradition, some queer
quirk in our thinking, the unEnar-
ried man has been regarded as a
person somewhat superior to his fell
lows. This opinion has been preva-
lent of late in the United States.
The very fact that he can have his
cake and eat it too enhanced his
merit. Because he was adamant to
feminine wiles, we considered him
entitled to universal respect and ac-
claim.

ID ECENT death OF Texas Guinan,
An famous night club hostess,
brings into national prominence the
outbreak of amebic dysentery that
has been prevalent in Chicago for
several months. Miss Guinan's
sudden death is ascribed to this
disease. The epidemic is believed
to be under control.
Amebic dysentery is caused by
invaSions of the body by an organ

as entamoeba histolytica. This or

I am informed by the radio and
by newspaper articles that real
estate taxes have caused many small
home owners to lose their homes.
This is quite an absurd statement
in view of the facts that most
homes are lost to real estate COM
panies because the purchaser has
lost his job and can not have the
monthly installments.
realize the companies are get
ting a great number of these places
back and are having to pay the
taxes on them but what have they
done with all the installments that
have been paid? I never hear of
them buying the former owners
equity or refunding the taxes he
paid for several years before they
took it back. The only difference I
can see between this procedure and
the present reign of terror in Indi-
ana is that realty firms don't use
machine gun but use a justice of
the peace and his cOnstables. I am
trying to buy home and am fur
nishing homes for my aged parents
and the parents of my wife. At
present I am able to make ends
meet, but if I get more salary cuts
I will have to give up my place and
it won't be high taxes that caused it.

THE PEOPLE ORDER

THE value of a referendum system, by
which voters can lay their hands directly
on an issue which their elected representatives
refuse to tackle, is shown by Ohio's experience
this fall with an old age pension law.
For years people had tried to put such
law through the state legislature Time after
time the legislators contemptuously showed it
under. The battle went on for sixteen years
and each time the law failed.
Finally, this year, fraternal, labor and
church groups united to get signatures and
have referendum on the issue The proposal
came to vote at the recent election-and
carried by the overwhelming total of 1 1886. lot
votes to 526 ,O55
1t is pretty clear that the legislature had
been going directly against the strong majority
sentiment of the state. But if it had not been
for the referendum machinery, the voters
would have been utterly helpless

It Seems
to Me
= BY HAYWOOD BRoUN=

NEW YORK, Nov. Al always
L am puzzled by the dogmatism
OF certain clients. For instance. I
have before me a letter from C. T. l.,
who writes:
When I pay 3 cents for paper
some small portion of that is spent
because I want to see your column.
I do not like your column. Very
often it seems to me terrible, but
I feel cheated when you run a COM
munication from anybody Even if
I don't like Broun I have a right
TO get him hot or cold when lay
down my pennies.
This does not seem to me a
healthy state of mind. If Mr.. L.
merely wants to punish himself he
should buy thumb tacks and place
them in strategic places around his
apartment.
AS matter of fact. I don't use
many contributions. All too infre-
quently I get a piece from Nc
Alister Coleman. Comerade Coleman
can write rings around me and
around some of the other COL
umnistS, too. If I had paper I
should certainly hire Coleman. I
might fire him later on, but I would
hire him.
Moreover, McAlister Colemans

Hundreds Join Movement to
Purge State: Campaign
Made Moral Issue.
By GEORGE SANFORD HOLMES,

WASHINGTON, Sept. Senator

up against perhaps the most for
midable opposition Of his spec
tacular career The senate's failure

him OF unfairness. growing out Of
the Broussard- OvertOn senatorial
controversy has been converted into
a moral issue" by women of LOui-
siana and they are enlisting the
aid and support Of their sisters
throughout the Union
Sponsors Of the new movement
insist that the senate investigate
the charges now before it that Huey
Long is not TT 10 be a senator.
The women hope to succeed where
their men folks thus far have failed
The nucleus Of the offensive is The
WOmen's committee Of Louisiana.
The driving force behind 1t is Mrs.
Hilda Phelps Hammond. mother Of
four children. who is taking time
out from her hOuSehOuld tasks to
see that the senate does what she
and her associates cOnStrue to be
its plain duty
Women Work Hard
The women's committee was or
gained the week that Senator John
M Overton. political prOtege Of
Senator Long. took office in March
Since then it never has missed a
weekly meeting. II went 10 work
to acquaint women in all parts Of
the country with the stRy of Louis
lana political corruption as its men,
berS saw il. The appeal they have
sent out reads IN part. as follows.
The women's committee is en-
de3yOring to crystalline public Opin-
ion both here and elsewhere in re-
gard TO existing political corrup-
ton i'm Louisiana. This committee
insists that the United States SEN
ate vigorously shall investigate the
charges filed before it in regard to
the seating Of Senator OvertOn in
the face of a fraudulent election and
the unhtness of Senator Long to be
a member of the highest legislative
body Of the United States.
Women are a force when they
unite upon a moral issue. This COM
mittee is not a political Organiza-
tiOn-it is a committee that is de
termined to bring before the nation
the degradation Of this state and
the possible degradation of the sem
ate if such charges are not pushed
to an effective conclusion.
Asked to Join Committee
will you not become a member
of the WOmens committee and join
your efforts with ours in the in
teTestS Of America"
A gratifying response has come
from women all over the nation, ac-
cOrding 10 Mrs. Hammond.

we'll as their own. The State dispen-
sary plan is not regarded favorably
by them. The prevailing sentiment
among them was voiced by one of
them, who said: 1--WE welcome the
State as a regulatory factor in con-
trolling liquor, but as a distributive
agency liquor would Immediately be-
come a political punching-bag, and
it is to be feared that under such
system grating would soon surpass
the evils of prohibition days"
Press reports are carrying stories
of widespread counterfeiting of la
bells and government revenue stamps
in anticipation of repeal. in which it
is related that masterpieces of
counterfeiting have been done by
pre-repeal bootleggers, who figure
that with corrupt politicians in con-
troll, the syndicates could place in
State dispensaries bootleg liquor,
bottled and packaged, to resemble
legal whiskey in every outward re-
spect. This liquor would pay no rev.
enue to the National or State Gov
ernments even though it would mas
querade ON the shelves of the dis
pensaries as products of legitimate
law-abiding distilleries.
Discerning political analysts who
are looking forward to liquor con-
troll as a genuine reality rather
than a professors theory, are issu-
ing warnings against the inherent
evils in the store system.
