DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. March
8. R-AoaShed, but feeling very
good inside about a lot OF things. Sir
Malcolm Campbell waited Wednes-
day for his 30O-mile an hour beach,
4irm in the hands OF Lady Campbell.
and certain for the first time that
public opinion says he mustn't en-
danger his lie anymore.
He's a strange fellow, this titled
Englishman, representative, shy, and
so thoroughly determined that he
must do exactly what Is expected OF
him even though he breaks his neck
n the doing.
Three times in a row he has almost
done exactly that. racing his giant
Bluebird after his own 272.l08 mile
an hour record on a beach ne knew
wasn't fit for such speeds. but going
out anyway. because he thought II
was the thing expected Of him.
He knew different Wednesday, and
he knew too that there was an
entirely new factor In the situation,
Lady Campbell. his pleasant. friend
ly wife, who Is Just as determined as
he Is, but on the side that he's not
not going to break that neck just
because Of stubborn adherence TO
his code.
Better Half In Action
She stepped In and stopped him
Tuesday when. on top Of the broken
cowling accident Saturday that near
ly gaSSed him and the bouncing
Sunday that almost threw him out
u tne seven-ton car. he decided 70
run with close TO a gale OF wind
o.cwing. He had made an early snap
decision TO go.
Even though the south wind
sprung up at the last minute 70 more
than IS miles an hour. he felt that
he had pledged himself and had 70
90 through with II. He had his car
lowed out, was seated In the cock
pit, when Lady Campbell swung in
TO action.
"It's suicide" she said, "and We
mustn't let him do H."
The beach officials. Mayor Z Fl.
Armstrong and John Mcnamara. as
sistant adjutant general for the
state, felt the same way but weren't
quite sure about the properties Of
telling the only man living who has
driven this beach at better than 200
miles an hour what he should and
shouldn't do. BolStered by her de-
termination. they swung into action
beside her.
They raced down the beach IN one
car to head him off. Luckily they got
there before he started.
Run Is Called OFF
you can't 60" said the mayor.
ITS too dangerous. I'm ordering the
timing traps and the course flags
taken down. We value your safety
more than We do record speeds"
Come. Malcolm" said Lady
Campbell. and Malcolm a bit sheep
ishly came like q good husband.

AAA. Abolish all processing taxes.
Instead of using this gigantic five
billion-dollar appropriation for
political purposes, take it and pay
the farmers and the soldiers Of
this country.
Return to the Constitution.
Stand by it. It has protected us
in times Of peace and in war.
Every deviation from it has hurt
the people of America.
Americans, wake up. Each
generation freedoms creed.
Must be with harShness
taught; and free men warned
that all they have
"And are, was dearly bought;
and oft must Lexington be
reused
"And COncord's fight be

NEED RETURN TO CHARACTER
Don't let communism run riot
in this land. Don't sell your birth
right for a mess of pottage.
What we need is to get. back
to character, back to integrity,
back to religion.
IAN idle brain is the devils
workshop" The thoughts of work
make people sick and encourage
them to get on the dole.
And brain trusters are encour-
aging just this.
Work, labor that makes people
sweat. It also makes them sleep
at night. Do this for a while, and
you will rise in the morning with
a song on your lips and a prayer
in your heart, knowing that the
only economic fundamentals in
this world are honesty, hard work
and saving.
The presidential campaign Of
old will be fought out on the prir1-
cipleS of our Democratic party
platform that I have read to you.
We will return to them.
The great fight in America is
AmericaniSm versus NIRA-iSm.
NIRA-ism is the brain trusterS'
doctrine.
What is it? It is a mixture Of
Communism, frenzied finance and
wet nursing.
AmericaniSm is going to win out.
The man to lead the banner will
realize that a party platform is
sacred and that the Constitution
Of the United States is greater
than any man or set Of men in
this union.

Judging from the attendance
at the production of Trial BY
jury" and "Cavalleria Rusti-
cana" last night at Roosevelt
High School Auditorium, the
public evidently thought it would
be a dress rehearsal for the
second show tonight at $3.50
o'clock.
The Estelle wentworth Opera
Group gave a splendid perform
ance in good Gilbert and Sullivan
style of the operetta Trial BY
Jury" Ray Baine, tenor, as the
defendant in Trial BY jury"
and as Turiddu in "Cavalleria
RuSticana," possesses one Of the
finest voices heard In either
production. Both Ira Meyer as
the Judge and Thomas Zepp as
counsel for plaintiff gave good
character performances though
their voices were not outstand-
ing. Alma Harris, soprano, as
the plaintiff sang her role In q
convincing manner with a well
placed voice. Miss Harris will
sing the role of Santuzza tonight
in "Cavalleria Rusticana."
The stage settings and costumes
for both productions were above
the average for amateur presen-
tations and the casts deserve a
full house tonight.
Giovanni Martinelli, Metro
politan tenor, more than lived
up to his reputation last night
in a recital at the Russian
Embassy given by the Ambassador
and Madame Troyanovsky. Mr..
Martineln was recalled a number
of times, favoring the audience
with an aria from ''Tosca,"
Nina" (Tanara); and arioso
from "Pagliacci" Geoncavallo).
In the intimate confines of the
ballroom of the Russian Embassy,
not all grand opera singers would
be heard to advantage. but the
golden tenor voice of Mr.. Marti-
nelli, powerful as it is, was still
sweet and pleasing.
Miss Elena Bel, coloratura So
prano, who has recently returned
from four years of vocal study in
Italy, possesses a voice of great
flexibility and true pitch, but it
it hardly large enough nor has it
resonance enough for grand opera
in a large auditorium.
The George Washington Univer-
Sity Glee Club, under the direction
of DR.. Robert Howe Harmon, will
give the annual spring concert
tonight at 8:45 o'clock at the
Willard Hotel. The mems section
has won quite reputation in
winning second place in a national
contest recently.
