ROOSEVELT
DEFEAT IN 1886

By Archie Harrison
Everybody is wondering if Mr..
Roosevelt will be reelected in 1886.
Please permit me to express my
views as to which way the wind is
blowing.
Mr.. Roosevelt will be defeated in
1886. I have reached this decision
by talking to people in all walks of
life and by reading different news
papers. Mr.. Roosevelt will be de-
feated by the same people that de-
feated Mr. Hoover and for the same
reason. He will be defeated by vet
Grams and their friends.
Mr.. Ro~osevelt's downfall started
with his veto message. The mes
sage itself was inaccurate and con-
Trajectory. Properly analysed, it
was an argument in favor Of the
so-called bonus.
Shortly after his message, the
Supreme Court vetoed the MIRA and
the House became hostile to many
of his bills. A short time ago,
Rhode Island elected a pro-bonus
Senator and now the outstanding
prospect of a Republican President
is pro-bonus.
In 1882, Mr.. Roosevelt was pic
tured as a great friend of the vet
Grams. Word was put out that MI.
Roosevelt was ready for the bonus
but, for political reasons, could not
say so. Members of a certain vet
Grams organization went from house
to house and contacted every *
service man in my town, asking
them to vote for Mr.. Roosevelt.
Two e~x-service men that I know
worked hard for Mr.. Roosevelt and
have said they got at least 100 votes
for him he otherwise would not
have gotten. They say they will
work twice as hard in 1886 to de-
feat him.
I do not intend to enter into any
controversy as to the merits of the
New Deal or as to the merits of the
so-called bonus. That has all been
done before.
I repeat Mr.. Roosevelt will be de-
feated in 1886.

HIS SOUL MARCHES ON

L indy. generous Otto P. Deluse is dead.
N His wasted, pain-wracked body will be
laid to rest tomorrow in Crown Hill but his
soul goes marching on.
So long as mankind respects high ideals
and thought for others the spirit of Otto P.
DeluSe VIII live.
Throughout the long illness which ended
with his death Saturday night. he displayed
the same high courage which had won for him
respect throughout the nation for his gallant
efforts in behalf Of the aged poor.
Honored with the highest Office within the
gift Of the Fraternal Order Of Eagles, in which
he saw the instrument for saving old men and
women from the blight of the poorhouse
through pensioning them, Mr.. Deluse. retired
from the Office Of grand worthy president. had
continued until the last his efforts in behalf
Of the aged poor.
Only a week ago today The Times printed
an appeal by Mr.. DeluSe to County Councils
and advisory boards throughout the state to
be generous in their consideration of means
for paying pensions under Indiana's law which
became a fact after u years OF constant effort
on his part.
Otto Deluse championed the cause Of the
needy. aged poor back in the era when such
a thing was branded socialistic and visionary.
But it is not recorded that he ever faltered in
the task he had set for himself. He lived TO
see the enactment. as a part OF the Federal
social security program. Of a national system
of Old-age pensions.
A LWAYS sensitive 10 anything that men
1 aced the happiness of the home. MIR.
DeluSe saw in the economic depression which
started in 1929 dangers TO the welfare of
families. When the Eagles order. long before
the present recovery administration was set
Up, committed itself to a program for the
establishment Of a Federal commission for
the sterilization Of employment. Mr.. Deluse
became an ardent supporter of the plan.
The right OF every adult American TO
work continuously at a saving wage" was the
basis Of the Eagles program and lodge associ-
ates and other friends recall tina Mr.. Deluse
missed no opportunity to enumerate in terms
Of human happiness the difference between a
saving wage and a living wage.
Although he was a business man who easily
could have been a conservative member of
society. Mr.. Deluse chose the path of progress.
Today. those who once differed with him on
matters Of social welfare are mourning the
loss Of a man with the courage and vision TO
fight the battle for those too old and helpless
10 night for themselves.
In addresses and conversation. Mr.. Deluse
often commented f~eelingly on the pitiful
letters he received from old men and women
who saw the shadow OF the p~oorhouse nearing
them. Their plight was something more to

CRITICIZES CITY RESIDENTS
FOR LACK OF RESPECT

By a Reader
While viewing the Legion parade
last Monday. I could not help MOTTO
ing the lack of patriotism or the lack
of knowledge expressed by the
crowds as the American flag passed
by. Not one spectator out of so re-
moved his hat as the colors passed.
The average citizen treats our
flag as though it were nothing but
a colored rag, and not a symbol of
a great nation, a flag to be respected
and honored.
1 think it's a shame and a disgrace
to the American people that they
show no more respect for the flag Of
the greatest nation on earth.
Three lusty and long cheers for
Old Glory.

Apollon talks expansively Of interna-

Born in Russia. Apollon always had
a yen for show business. and at the
age Of used to inform his father
quite solemnly, Some Gay I will own
a big show of my own, and you will
come and watch me and have all the
cigars you want
At a tender age Apollon was of
into the world, doing dances in minor
shows and travelling about various
countries. He liked all of them and
couldn't understand why they could
not be forever friendly with each
other. The seed of these musings
Powered into his present passion for
internationalism, his delight in head
ing a unit which contains Arabs,
Americans, Russians, Englishmen, Ha-
waiians, Irish and a few assorted
other nationalities.
They all get along fine. They like
one another. I like all of them
Apollon explains breathlessly. Why
can't people be that way all over the
world?" he insists, suggesting the idea
that maybe prime ministers should
learn to tap dance together, sing songs
and build human pyramids. No doubt
they would grow less standoffsh to-
ward one another If every conference
were prefaced with a week of that
routine. Apollon's diplomacy would
involve world ruled by the exchange
Of juggler's Indian clubs, rather than
the exchange of rude notes.
In the process of playing various
acts from Bankok to Budapest, Apol-
Ion has picked up more than passable
grace at singing, playing the guitar or
mandolin, dancing, acrobatics, tum-
bling and even comedy. He enjoys
doing all of them in his own show.
This gives him chance to do some
thing with every country, the Ara
bans being tumblers. the Russians
singers, the Hawaiians Instrumental
lists, etc. He has had the Hawaiian

BY THE G. W. PLAYERS
Cue and Curtain Club Presenting
OR. q. R." at Wardman
This Evening.

4h4S ANCAAh6'
"R.. u. r." the fantastic me,odrama
by the Czechoslovakian playwright.
Karel Capek, will be presented by Cue
and Curtain Club Of the George
Washington University, in Wardman
Park Theater tonight and tomorrow
at $50 o'clock.
The play, which satirizes mans al
legged tendency to become subservient
to his machines, foretells the destruc-
ton of human life by world full of
manmade workers. Sue Slater and
Robert E. Cox play the parts OF the
final products Of the robot factory,
who surpass their fellows in that they
have the capacity for emotion and be-
come the founders Of a new race.
Adele Gusack, Edward Stevlingson
and John P. Rappolt. jr., play fea-
tured roles.
Sets for the play. especially de-
signed by Katherine Cutler in an ex-
tremely modernistic style, are notable
for their utilization Of the Lime
bach protector, acclaimed by Roxy
as the scenery device of future. on
a larger scale than it has ever before
been used in Washington.
Special two-piano music, composed
by Robert Greenwell and played by
Jacqueline Churchill and William
Pates. will heighten the atmosphere
of melodramatic tension that per-
vades the play. The complete cast,
as announced by Associate Director
Karl Gay, includes Ben Candland,
Hamilton Colt, Leon Gerson, Irving
Grodstein, William p Jordan, Mar
garet Long. John Molyneaux, Frank
Raisbeck, Genevieve Richards, Elmo
Travers and John Woods.
