But, although New York looks a
little brighter to the Republicans just
now, the situation in Pennsylvania is
not so hot. In this G. o. P. stronghold
the voters smashed the Republican
machines in Philadelphia and Pitts
burgh. The Democrats could not have
done it without the aid of Republican
votes, any more than Major LaGuar-
dia in New York could have been
elected without Democratic votes. The

lions next year remains to be seen.
Perhaps the reason the results were
so mixed from partisan standpoint
lies in the fact that the elections
generally were fought out on local
rather than national issues. The only
instance where the election had a ma
tional flavor of any kind was in New
York, and this was due to the fact that
Postmaster General Farley, generally
regarded as the political spokesman
of the national administration,
brought out Joseph Mckee under a
Recovery" party label, in opposition
to Major LaGuardia and Mayor
O'Brien, the regular Democratic can
didate. President Roosevelt made no
statement about the election, but the
fact that Farley was active in behalf
of Mckee gave the election a national
flavor. The defeat of Mckee who
barely ran second, is certainly a blow
to the prestige of Mr.. Farley, who has
been regarded as we'll nigh invincible
politically since he became the Roose-
welt manager in the pre-convention
Democratic campaign in 1882. Mr..
Farley gained reputation for great
political wisdom when he led the sue
cessful movement to nominate Mr..
Roosevelt at Chicago. Although the
election of Mr.. Roosevelt was fore
gone conclusion from the start, and
he would have won without any Ma
tional Chairman, the results added to
the reputation of Mr.. Farley who held
that exalted political office. The result
in New York is the first instance in
which Mr.. Farley has guessed wrong,
and this error of judgment may have
far-reaching results.

Mrs. Roosevelt, becomingly tanned
and looking thoroughly rested, greeted
the newspaper women in the west Sit

White House and gave them a detailed
and interesting account OF her motor
trip to Canada. She spoke of the in
creased interest in affairs OF the day
in all women she came in contact with
on the road and in the towns and vii
lagos she passed through. Few recog-
nized her where her coming had not
been heralded, although more in this
country than in Canada, and in one
place she was not recognized even after
she registered, signing her own name.
The last day Of her trip, yesterday, she
drove from Chautauqua, N. Y, $50 miles,
arriving at the White House about 10
O'Clock last evening. She drove without
hat and with the top Of her car down,
the better to see the beautiful scenery
of the country through which she drove.

periences was the stop in small COM
munity in Canada where q church was
in charge of a curate who had been
a missionary among the Negroes of
Texas and had returned to his home

was striking and she and Miss Hickox
remained to have luncheon with them

recently burned, causing the death OF
an older, blinded sister.
Mrs. Roosevelt was Immediately rec
ognized when she stopped in Maine
after crossing the border. and before
her gas tank could be filled a reporter
from the local paper and a photog-
rapher were at the side of the car.
The trip of nearly three weeks carried
the First Lady over nearly 1000 miles
and she drove up Whieface as far as
the road is completed and then walked

Of the other shibboleths on which the
Communist state rests.
In the fiscal year 1929-S0 American
goods to the extent Of 32,250, 900 were
imported into Soviet Russia, but since
then that trade has largely been d.
verted to Great Britain and Germany
It's recovery by American industry and
agriculture would be very much worth
while, but not, in Calvin Coolidge's i'm
mortal words, If 1t can only be obtained
'by bartering American principles"-
that Is to say. by facilitating the activ-
tiles in the United States Of elements
chiefly concerned In sowing this soil
with the seeds of Communism.
There is also to be remembered that
industrial goods now form 63.6 per cent
of all Soviet exports. Great Britain
has had disastrous experience with
dumping Of Russian manufactures pro-
duced virtually on a no-cost basis
under the Communist scheme Of state
forced labor. That is a feature Of Rus
sian recognition which this country,
never so much as in this industrial re-
covery era, would need to take very
seriously into consideration. also.

shipped dogs TO points as distant q

practically given away, but the great
majority are placed. No dog worth saw
ing is sacrificed. Thus the trip to the
pound is the beginning Of q new lease
Of life. in most cases to q happier ex-
istence.
The depression, Mr.. Smith believes,
has brought hardship to Thousands of
city dogs. Hard-hearted owners In
continently turn out pets Of which they
have tired, or which they consider
"too great an expense" OF course,
the dogs suffer-until ct last the pound
wagon rounds them up. Far better
would 1t be in the circumstances, Mr..
Smith declares. to telephone his ONCE

ionship worth having, . source Of
amusement worth enjoying. They JUS
tdfy to the full all the rational con-
sideration accorded them. Such, in
any event, are Mr.. Smiths views, and
1t may be hoped that there are many
who share them.

There Is scarcely unit Of the pop

another. Even children and very old
people have been subjected to the

compelled to limp along on only three
automobiles and half dozen servants
practically penniless.
This adversely has affected people in
two different ways, depending on the
people Not a few have succumbed to
the deadening influence Of poverty and
vanishing opportunity. There are
doubtless tens Of thousands Of indi-
viduals who had good jobs before 1929,
but who will become members Of the
permanently unemployed. Some have
drifted into this class because they
have learned how to be content with
the precarious half-living they can pick
up by exercise Of sharp and unscrupu-
lous wits. Others have calmly given

however, have been sthened by the
depression in q determination to pre-,
pare themselves to face better times
with better equipment. Never in the
history of American libraries has there
been such q demand for books. The
magazines Of the lighter sort and en-
tertaining literature generally-has In
creased. but the most notable increase
has been in the demand for volumes
of a textbook nature. There is clear
indication that thousands Of persons,
temporarily INDECENT, have been bent
on improving their enforced leisure by
attempting TO educate themselves in
some line of endeavor which will en-
able them better to grasp opportunities
for economic preferment at the next
spin of the wheel of fortune.
The Once of Education OF the De-
partment Of the Interior has noted
this tendency and has observed 1t with
keen interest, and librarians Of public
libraries all over the country have
been unable to escape realization that
a wave of earnestness in connection
with self-education and professional
studies has swept the country. A survey
of the type of books which have been
In demand points toward the ambi-
tions which are harbored by those now
seeking to better their educational
equipment. It reveals what the joint
judgment Is as to what line OF Work
will offer the best chances OF profit
on the return Of better times.
Most Popular Subjects.
In any kind of times the student,
who, in odd hours, wants to help edu-
cate himself toward q better Job has
been wont to brush up on accountancy.
Probably this is because his own finan-
cial condition has kept him figuring
and he sees the value of careful figures.
Test comparisons have been made as
to book Withdrawals in a library in
the prosperous year Of 1927 and the
badly depressed year of 1892. In 1927,
for the test period, there were 634
Withdrawals Of books on accountancy.
That subject led the list. 1t still led

years, but with a world Of difference
