MIR. HOOVER TALKS POLITICS.

Borah Landon Knox and the rest of the re- but the next Republican convention it appears is going to have to give consideration to MT. Hoover Perhaps not an out and out proposal but at least a yelled hint of his hopes is found in the utterances of the former President at Oakland last week when he addressed group of his fellow party members.
 Even some of his party leaders admitted prsing interest in the new mtance of their retired chieftain as he waded into the Roosevelt Admin istration in true Republican style But aside from his biting attack the New Deal, MT. Hoover talked politics the kind of politics that points toward convention time Minor issues petty opposition, sec- tional interest group ideas and personal ambition must be dumped he told his far Western Republican friends if the Grand Old Party is to be effective against the Democrats The ex-President spoke of compromises among the leading Republicans and sounded the clarion call of harmony in the ranks. After all MT Hoover is the minority party titular head and compromise as politicians know it means agreement with the Chief when big things at stake, for instance let us say, the Republican nomination
 The occasion was his first appearance before his party since retiring from the White House, but MT. Hoover indicated pretty definitely that it will not be his last. No, the Republican high command cannot do very much planning without figuring the former President in the picture, and he might well dominate the entire party frame about the time that convention rolls around

THE BETTER PART OF VALOR.

From Stockholm comes word that the Swedish press is advancing the suggestion that Emperor Halle Selassie of Ethiopia be awarded the Nobel Peace prize for hs efforts in attempting to bring about peaceful settlement of the present difficulty with Italy. One newspaper declared it would be stand for the right of justice
 With the exception of Italy, most of the world will echo the sentiment but in the interest of further peace it might be a good thing if the gesture is confined to unofficial comment only. Not that the rest of the world is frightened of the machine now in action in the land of Mussoni, but were one attempting to capture a mad bull it would hardly be considered logic to wave red flag in his face
 Sentimentally, might all be in favor of giving the Ethiopian ruler the Nobel prize moral support in these present difficulties but after all it is just such little well intended acts that often stir up further strife. From this distance it would appear that all Europe might well weigh the ques- ton of whether discretion is the better part of vaor.

Mans Last Stand.
(Kansas City star.o

It is something like running across a pasture waving red flannel shirt, like standing near the north terminus of a Missouri mule and tickling it with a wheat straw in fact, very much like handling dynamite with limited knowledge of ex- plosives, to mention what has happened in Oklahoma. But it does seem to call for comment.
 Oklahoma-what a State! The women had a desire for the constitutional right to hold office anything from the Governorship down brack- cts. They buled the Legislature all right. They persuaded it to submit constitutional amendment. And the story. the dangerous comment is about the vote in Oklahoma on that amendment.
 Oklahoma men turned thumbs down on it. They put another nail in the sagging sign which reads For Men Only Unterrified at home or abroad, they apparently locked up the feminine members of their families and drove away to the polls swamp ing the proposed amendment
 Either Oklahoma men are heroes they are foolhardy. That can't be determined until the homi- eide records for September compiled. Anyway, they defied feminity-the wives mothers maiden aunts, grandmothers and daughters-and asserted their superiority mere
 Every other State in the Union had given women beg pardon, the women had taken-the right to hold any and every office Oklahoma is mans last stand in the United States.

Memorials for Will Rogers.
(New York Times.)

(New York Tmes)
 It is in response to a nation wide sentiment that a national commission has been established to devise ways of perpetuating the memory of MT. Rogers Headed by President Garner, who will have the aid of many prominent men as advisers and members of committees, the commission will seek to raise a general fund This will be, how ever, apportoned among communities where memor- ials will erected the form and location of which will be left largely to the taste and judgment of the cities towns interested So far it is specified only that memorial shall be placed somewhere in Oklahoma and another California site. But those two States, though they saw Will Rogers in person oftener than others, cannot claim mon- opoly of admiration for him. Other States may bid for the privilege of doing honor to him. It will naturally be time before the money is raised and the actual nature of the memorials decided upon Everybody will agree that they should suggest something of the love of animals and of children the enthusiasm for life in the open and for natural beauty together with the wide and kindly human relations which strongly marked the life and career of Will Rogers.

 In, the evening lawyers and other thinkers are well directed. The stars smile on meetings and conferences. Unexpected announc m nts from Washington are predicted
 Much illness is prognosticated for he coming weeks. Infectious diseas- es will crowd the hospitals. The di- yestive tract may cause many ill., nesses.
 Again religious excitement is pre- saged. There will be revivals and evidence of loyalty to old faiths Prosecutions will lead to sudden consequences.
 Japan will be in the news owing to fires and earthquakes, govern mental ambitions and expansive policies.

Consider This Criticism.
(Raleigh News-OhserverO. )


 There are only two unforgiven sins in the de- caogue of the defenders of Privilege. They are CD To impose taxes upon the basis of ability to pay and the benefits received and (2) To separate monopoly from syphoning the major portion of the national income produced by all of the people. The moment MT. Roosevelt said: Let wealth pay it's share of the taxation" there went up syndicated propaganda that he was holding Congress in ses- sion to secure half-baked tax measure. Read carefully the criticism of Rooseves tax policy and you will that it comes from those who would return to the old order where two-thirds of the wealth found its way into the pockets of 10 per cent of the people.

take a forward look. The delay In
passing the work relief bill postpones
well into the Spring any industrial
benefit to be derived from it when
finally enacted. There is no present
indication that it will have the shape
or the proportions of the original
measure.
As an offset to this discouragement
is the relief felt as result OF settle
ment of the gold clause cases, inspir-
ing some buying where there had been
a policy of Withholding orders while
the cases were pending. This will
partially correct the downward trend
of the business index which has been
in motion for several weeks and Is re-
flected most prominently in the abrupt
fall in iron and steel production. Al
together, February shows reversal OF
the tendencies that had existed in
previous months, but this is due to the
fact that the country at large lad
overspent in, November, December
and January, while manufacturers
had overproduced. The 1884 retail
turnover is given as $500 ,000, 600
greater than in 1888.

Commodity Price
Changes for Week.
BY III. n. McGILL,

Editor. McGill Commodity Service. Inc.
Auburndale. Mass.
AUBURNDALE, Mass, February %
P).-Commodity prices failed to in
crease during the week following the
United States Supreme Courts gold
decision.
A check-up shows that more groups
advanced than declined but in each
case price strength was of a limited
character while lower quotations in
two important groups. namely, live
stock and fine textiles, established the
composite index on lower plane than
a week ago.
Industrial activity as well as secur-
ity and commodity markets registered
a sharp upSwing during the early
rart of the week, representing a psy-
Geological reaction following the
elimination of uncertainty in regard
to the gold problem. The movement,
however, was short-lived Six basic
commodity groups during the week
remain unchanged. while five aver
Industrial prices were slightly
lower. Activity in both durable and
consumer goods industries has shown
Soma disposition to move downward,
which is in alignment with seasonal
characteristics The status of busi-
ness is higher than year ago.
Farm Prices Up Slightly.
Agricultural prices represent one of
the five groups to average higher, but
the upswing was of a fractional ma
ture Higher prices as compared with
a week ago were noted in oats, rye,
cotton, sugar and fiaxseed, which sue
cessfully offset lower prices for butter,
wool, potatoes, eggs and corn.
Live stock prices declined. Al
though hog prices advanced to a new
high, the index averaged lower, re-
fecting price weakness in cattle,
sheep and lambs. The live stock in
deX is now higher than either indus
trial or agricultural products.
Hide and leather prices recorded a
favorable increase caused py higher
quotations for hides as well as sole
leather.
Paint materials represent another
group that moved upward, caused by
strength in linseed oil as well as
rosin and turpentine. Shellac prices,
however. recorded further weakness.
Fine textiles represent the third
group that declined and the reaction
was quite severe caused by a 10-cent
decline in the price of wool. The
lower quotation more than offset price
strength recorded in spot cotton, prInt
cloth and raw silk.

This was largely in form of exchanges.
At the close March was l8 points un-

j. s. BONDS FIRM
W|THPR|ME ISSUES.
Weakness of Secondary
Rails Counteracts Gains
of High-Grade Groups.
BY G. A. PHILLIPS,
Press Financial Writer.

hSSUCldlCu EtCoo ludllCldl NLLtcis
NEW YORK, February 23.-Firm-
ness in the U. S. Government list and
other prime loans was counteracted
by weakness in secondary rails on the
bond market today.
Federal loans were still responsive
to the recent announcement from
Washington regarding the new financ-
ing plans and gains ranging to 1882
of a point we're shown by leading
Treasury issues. -
On the other hand, secondary rails
seemed to be as sensitive TO the
speech of Chairman Jones of the r.
F.. c., interpreted in the financial sec
ton as indicating a tightening up OF
loans to the carriers, and losses OF
from / to more than 6 points were
shown by some transportation shares.
Treasury As of 1944-54 at 11l.19,
the 3s4s of 1866 at 109.28 and the
Home Owners Loan IS of SO at 1927
were typical of the higher prices paid
for Federal obligations. This group ac-
counted for approximately half OF the
total transactions of $8,460, 900, par
value.
American Smelling SIS at l05, Amer
lean Telephone SIS of IS at ll214,
Armour 4l2s at 1903, Santa Fe As of '95
at 111as and Chesapeake & Ohio gen
eral 412s of '92 at 1875 reflected the
improved tone of first-grade loans.
Southern Railroad As of 1856 were
off more than points at 46. While
sharp drops took place in New Haven
IS of 1910 at As, New York Central
4l2s of 2013 at 53l2. Baltimore &
Ohio AIS of 1860 at 40 and Missouri
Pacific SIS of 1877 at 26l2.
The Associated Press averages fol-
leading shares we're unchanged in the
industrial and foreign categories
while a small decline in the rails was
balanced by minor advance IN the
utility composite.
Foreign issues tended to ease in
quiet dealings.
