Poor Ollcy

BY A Reader
just have read an article in
The Times, Turning G. o. P. Out
of State Jobs Defended" and fail
to find any defense argument ex-
cept that the McNutt administra-
ton is discharging Republicans to
retaliate for the things Jim"
Goodrich did when he was elected
Governor.
Jim Goodrich has been just
about as unpopular with his own
party since his days as Governor
as he has ever been with his OPP
ponents.
For the McNutt administration
to try to get even with the Re
publicans for what Jim Goodrich
did in 1917 shows exactly their
caliber, and I predict that Gov
ernor Paul " McNutt will go out
of office as the most unpopular
man who ever held the position as
Governor of Indiana.

Q-Who caught baseball
dropped from the top of the
Washington monument in Wash
ington and what were the circum-
stances?
A-"Gabby" Street made the
catch sixty feet from the base Of
the monument on the fourteenth
ball dropped. The ball weighed
eve ounces. Balls that hit the
concrete made slight dent in it
and were fiattened slightly and
bounded fifty feet in the air. The
balls that landed on hard turf
penetrated two and one-half
inches.

Night Ride
BY JEAN COvERDILL

BL JLE1-N OOF EhDILL
Our little car speeds through the
night;
The wind blows back our hair;
Speed and the wind are on delight;
A cool, dark ride, heads bare!
The black and soft night atmos-
phere
Must soothe each troubSed breast;
Anxiety and troubled fear
And wrath are all at rest.
The twin headlights before us spread
A narrow way of light;
All golden is the path ahead
AS we speed through the night.

THE DEMAND FOR AUTOS

TIVE increase in American automobile pro-
II duction recorded in April is one of the
most encouraging facts on the whole indus
trial horizon.
To begin WITH it is the first genuine up
turn recorded by the automobile industry since
the depression began.
Secondly, it has come in direct response to
dealer demand. The manufacturers are not
forcing cars on their retailers; they are making
them because the retailers have discovered
that the public demand is going up.
The cars that are leaving the factories
these days are being sold
The buying of automobiles on an extensive
scale is not snall-change business If, at
last, the market actually is expanding, it ar
CUES well for substantial pickup in general
business.

There are no charity funds avail
able in many places at this time,
and when winter comes again what
is going to happen then? Why pay
$4,000 a year pensions to some who
are not in need and never were in
service? Why make the poor poorer
and the rich richer?
If it weren't for the millions al

BY Mcrvin McNew.
Referring to the bonus march now
under way, I wish to state to all
veterans who have the bonus inter
est at heart, that it would be better
for them to stay home.
I am quoting an article from Sen
ator Arthur R. Robinson, written
me on May l, this year.
He said:
GAS you doubtless know the
amendment which I recently intro
duced providing for payment of the
bonus vas defeated in the senate.
Though we have met with a tenn
porary backset 1 believe that in the
end we shall win and you may de-
pend upon me to continue my effort
in behalf Of veterans and their de-
pendentS."
AS an appeal to all veterans who
have this determination at heart, I
ask that you give Senators Robin
son, Thomas and Long and Rep
resentatives Patman, Grow, Ludlow,
Larrabee, and Greenwood your
earnest support by listening to what
they say when they warn "stay out
of Washington, and give us a
chance"
They have promised to fight it out
to the end, so let's stick and fight
it out with them. My honest belief
is that we will do more harm than
good by march to Washington.
This by one who suffered through
the battle of Washington in 1882.

Things Get IN Way

CEVERAL things delayed me. For
~ a little while I had a radio Job.
Nobody can do much writing on a
novel or anything else While he has
radio job. A radio job is an occu-
patton entirely surrounded by con-
ferenceS. 1t takes half an hour to
get a comma in and at least twice
as long to get it removed.
Somebody once said that plays
are not written, but rewritten. But
the gentleman who coined that say
ing knew his luck. When you start
to alter radio script for the sixth
time in two days, you begin to say to
yourself: This is getting to be a
nuisance. Even if Eddie Cantor gets
all the money they say he does,
guess I don't want to be q broad
caster and grow up with the busi-
ness"
And about that time you get fired,
anyway. and so the whole thing be-
comes academic. I'm beginning to
amasS very full collection of "Aw-
fully sorry, old fellow" letters. I
have been fired by everything from
fruit salt to journal of liberal
opinion.
Still, Hard to get, easy goes" has
always been my motto. And, after
all, my motives were of the best. I
didn't want this money for any good
reason. I merely planned to put it
into musical show.
Everybody says that what this
country needs is better distribution.
And when I put money in a musical
show, it must be that somebody gets
it. believe that's all attended to
by the law of supply and demand.
