They say that there must be plenty
of men like Carter Glass who soon will
be looking for somewhere to 60, politi-

party should be constructed on lines
to make them feel at home in it. The
proponents of the diverting idea sug-

Republicans should counter by inviting

Additions to the Zoo.

An infant named Babe is to be
added to the Washington Zoo. She
is an elephant, only ninety-six years
of age, many of those years having
been spent in the sawdust world of
the circus. Elephant experts aver
that at ninety-six an elephant is
relatively in middle age, so that Babe
has a good chance of remaining a
feature of the collection of animals
in the southern portion of Rock Greek
Park for fairly long time.
The advent of Babe at the Zoo
revives memories of Dunk, the
venerable pachyderm that was one of
the first residents of the park long
time ago. Dunk acquired a reputation
for sagacity and amenability of
temper that endeared him to hosts
of youngsters who are now heads of
families, and some of their sons and
daughters have little ones who will

dangerous for the authors of the ex-
periments as for the public, whose
interests the experiments affect. In
general, the sentiment dominating the
speeches had its basis in three con-
siderations: Desire for some assurance
that the sweeping innovations, with
their immense addition to the public
debt, be recognized as emergency ex-
pedients: that the seemingly prevalent
legislative assumption that possession
of wealth renders its owner an object
of suspicion and hostility be replaced
by a reasonable view of the American
people, and that monetary policies be

Limited Divorce Is
Worked as a Racket

To the Editor of The Star:
The limited divorce racket is -four
ishing in the District of Columbia.
Lawyers are waxing fat on this game
and thousands upon thousands of dol
lars are rolling into their Golfers.
An honorable husband can have his
home broken up overnight by an un-
scrupulous wife and her lawyer.
These modern days a wife has q
perfect right to go out at night now
and then by herself and come home
somewhat inebriated. If a husband
demonstrates with his better half over
this she can get good lawyer, charge
cruelty and by hocus pocus the man
is tied up with limited divorce suit.
His home is broken up and he has
to pay maintenance money, pendente
lite, which is nothing but blood money,
for a year or so pending final trial
of the case.
This maintenance money is the
woman'S share In this limited divorce
racket; besides, it gives her a divorce
from bed and board, which practically
means she Is free to do as she pleases.
What racket, Ell? Page Al Capone!

of its original meaning, has become a
mere bromide of conversation.
A new denomination appears to be
needed. For example, a man flies
from California to New York in less
than twelve hours-as little as a dozen
years ago such a feat could have
been imagined only by professional
novelist or a professional lunatic; no
one seriously believed that any such
thing could be done.

a decided new interest for the young
sters. And many an oldster will want
to see the dragon, which is, after all,
merely a giant lizard with q propen-
sity for live pork as food. There Is
something especially fascinating about
anything that looks like a dragon,
particularly one that has been def
nitely so named. The great lizard
like creatures known as alligators and
crocodiles are relatively common
place. Furthermore, they are nu-
merous in this country, and "ali-
gator farms are to be found in
several of the Southern tourist resorts.
Between Babe and the dragon from
Komodo the Zoo should have a very
good season this year. No matter
how many elephants they may have
seen in circuses, children are always
eager to get into close range with one.
This particular specimen has an ex-
cellent disposition, has been in

course of her long circus career and

the best geological assemblages in the
country and has probably the most
attractive location of any in the

Debate on the policies of the Roose-
welt administration, begun at the seS-
sions Of the United States Chamber Of
Commerce in the National Capital,
has been carried on in the press, with
much attention given to the plea for
the old deal by Silas H. Strawn, for
mer president Of the chamber. and the
championing of the new deal by Hen
ry I. Hartman, the new leader Of the
organization.
1T may be said" according to the
Butte MONTY Standard, that the
chamber. representative of the Ma
tons business and trade interests,
has Endorsed the Governments re-
covery efforts, its endeavorS to assist
in providing employment and its
plans for the rehabilitation of the ag-
ricultural industry. 1t has Endorsed
also the cardinal principles of the
national recovery act. But 1t has
plainly and definitely repudiated the
radical and leftist theories which have
been foisted upon the administra-
ton and made part of the new deal
program"

of the old order. as contrasted with
the new" the Roanoke World-NewS
comments: IF Mr.. Strawn will pro-
pose some definite, aggressive plan for
restoring Americas equilibrium, he

while the Scranton Times commends

hope for a certain type of gain. well
and good. While the most delightful
reading surely comes from sheer in
clination, and nothing else, some very
fine reading may be encompassed
through no more romantic a motive
than sitting down to read a book
| because one thinks one ought to
read it.
Never before in the history of the
world have there been so many "neces-
sary" books, according to the pub
fishers of the same.
Here is book every educated man
should read, and here is another, and
still another. All the experts are
rushing into print. Somebody or other
is writing book on every phase of
Government, national or international.
Nothing comes up but what some per-
son starts putting AL about it" be-
tween covers.
Now this is well.
One is seldom forced to read book
There is no compulSion to it. A book
is like one of these CLAW machines"
nobody demands that you put your
nickel into the thing.
A book is clear call to intellectual
battle, but happily one can take it or
leave it, in almost every case.
All the books printed, with rare ex-
ceptions, find readers of some sort, al
though certain ones do not find many
readers, although they may happen
to be most worthy productions, and
others draw to themselves multitudes
of readers, sometimes for reasons
which even the author and his pub
Usher would have difficulty in ex-
planning, if they could be quite honest
about the thing.

Every one who loves books should be
careful to include in his mental diet,
from time to time, certain books which
do violence to DR.. Johnson's theory.
One will have no inclination toward
them in the least, but simply will have
determined that, given such and such
mind. and under such and such
conditions, these books are what he
ought to read.
ought" must play a part as well
as like"
One does not have to be a moralist
in the least-although there is no
valid reason why one should not be-in
order to see the basic reason for such
harsh insistence.
1t is simply that he who heartily
believes in inclination, as the best
guide, is in very serious danger of
falling into a very lopsided intellec-
tual fare.
1t will be necessary, for the souls
good, to bring ones self up with a
halt, from time to time in order to
see exactly in which direction one is
faring.
Suppose one sees that the charming
Novel Road" is being Travelled too
much.
! Then the reader will be able to turn
| down into Economic Lane or Bio
graphical Thoroughfare, and by such
detours see more of the beauty of this
world than he ever could by sticking
determinedly and stubbornly to one
avenue of human thought and en-
| deavor alone.
Every reader must be his own guide,
his own judge, his own jury. "Inclina-
ton" may go that far, without harm,
with nothing but good, indeed.
What he reads as a task, however,
will do him a great deal of good, upon
occasion, and no person interested in
himself as reader. the great intellectual
consumer and grand appreciation, will
| miss this opportunity.
