MORE TALK OF
HOOVER HEARD !
IN WASHINGTON
Lindbergh Is Suggested for
Running Mate on 1886
G. 0. P. Ticket.
BY RODNEY BUTCHER
Times Special Writer


WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-For
whatever it may be worth-and per-
haps it's just one of those strange
things that August heat has a way
of producing here-the impression
has been growing around this town
that Herbert Hoover is most likely
to be the Republican candidate
against Roosevelt in 1886.
You can still get a violent argu-
ment against such possibility al
most anywhere. The point is that It's
only recently any one here has TAX
en- Mr.. Hoover'S chances Of renom-
ination seriously.
There's even some kind of move
ment on for a G. o. P. ticket OF
Hoover and Lindbergh. Can't tell
yet who is promoting it or how I'M
portant it's likely to be.
A seasoned political writer, who
has been making political bets for
years and never has any holes IN
the seat of his trousers, was around
the Press Club the other day offer
ing even money on Hoover's NOM
ination. (Yes. your correspondent
took S. of it,
The Hoover talk seems largely
based on the presidents recent
activity and belief among some poll
ticianS that he will win by virtue
of divided. deadlocked field.
Colonel Frank Knox of Chicago is
currently considered the chief
threat to Hoover's hopes. But don't
pay too much attention to this hot
weather speculation. Wait for the
first primaries next spring.
An observer just back from a
Western trip reports a genuine re-
vival of Republican hopes and an
epidemic of factional fights between
Democrats in many states.

Tells Soybean Growers New

BIZ United Press
EVANSVILLE, Ind, Aug. o.
American Soybean Association mem
bers were encouraged today after
hearing a prediction of Secretary
Henry A. Wallace that the soybean
industry faces probably the bright
est future of the many agricultural
products.
Mr.. Wallace, speaking before the
annual convention of the assocla-
ton here yesterday, predicted the
industry would occupy an impor-
tant place in the agricultural and
commercial world
The Cabinet member defended
the AAA program of the corn
hog division, but said the posi-
bilities of what might happen to
agriculture during the next three
or four years makes me shudder. ="
I'VE still have ready to put into
production 100000 acres Of land
taken out of production by the
AAA,' Wallace said.
IF this land is placed in pro-
duction, we can not sell the pro-
duce in the United States. There
is no market outside the nation
unless we open the markets by
loaning billions of dollars to pur-
chasing nations as we did in 1929
to sustain foreign markets, or take
foreign goods in exchange.
ct is possible We will face the
same situation as four years ago If
the 100000 acres are placed in
production again.
Through amendments to the
AAA, something can be done to
bring corn and hog prices in step
The amendments are awaiting the
signature of President Roosevelt
and will be a great stride toward
an ever-normal program"

VARIETY NIGHT

PIatts Mills Community Association Plans Varied
 Events Saturday


 Saturday night, November 16, is designated as Variety night by the social activities committee of the Platts Mills Community association. An interesting and varied program has been prepared by the commit tee in charge. An entertainment program Of one and one-half hours duration will precede the Sample Fair which will be held that same evening. The program will be broadcast from the stage to the au- dience by means of a nicrophone hOokup to the excellent sound ap- paratus which the club possesses. This new form of presentation will attract many to the Bristol CO. studio Saturday night.
 After the program which will be published in full later in the week the Sample Fair in which many of the leading merchants of Water bury and Naugatuck have so gener- ously donated door prizes will take place. Everyone attending will re- ceive samples of various kinds which the committee has received from the manufacturers. In addi- tion everyone will have a chance on

tried out. One does not have to be a very deep thinker to know that in the long run they are bound to prove fatal to the society of which the same children become an acc tive part. Any system of educa- tion which eliminates the develop ment of character as it's very foundation is simply a training camp for future criminals. If that seems strong statement there is good ground for making it. For many years it was a constantly preached doctrine that the chief cause of our crime was illiteracy. The acceptance of that doctrine was, I need not say, nothing less than taking the line of least re- sistance. It meant the ignoring of the real causes of crime because the study of these causes meant the disarrangement or complete change in our social and economic system.
 Those who fought the illiteracy theory were voices crying in the wilderness. They were branded as unscientific fogies and throw backs to the Dark Ages. Time, however, has demonstrated that the fogies were the true social scientists and that the alleged throwbackS to the educational Dark Ages had the right idea.
 At a meeting of the National Educational Association in Atlan- tic City comment on our sys- tenn of education was made by one of the chief speakers. It is a statement which merits the most serious thought. He said, Our splendid and so costly education has done nothing-I say advisedly nothing to mold the character of our people"
 MT. Lawes' Comments
 The man wilo spoke that sen- tence was not an educator nor a clergyman. He was the head of Sing Sing prison, Warden Lawes. MT. Lawes went on to present some painful figures. He showed that while at one time the aver

age inmate of Sing Sing had only reached the fourth and fifth grade the ordinary prisoner to-day has completed grammar school. More startling than that was the fur- ther statement that while the per- centage of convicts who had high school training was 19.1 in 1881 the percentage had risen to 25.2 in the first four months of 1882.
 If Warden Lawes spoke by the book, and with his record and reputation we must believe he did, the statistics he presented indi- cate that there is something ser- iously wrong with our education al system. I have no doubt that figures from other penal institu- tions and the verdicts of other penologists will furnish further support for the justice of Warden Lawes comment.
 The fault obviously lies in look ing upon education merely as a means of mental culture and neg lecting altogether its obligation in the matter of character training and development. And character development means nothing less than regarding human beings as having spiritual as well as ma- terial and intellectual life to live and lead.
 All any of us need to do is ask ourselves the question-"Which is the better society, one composed of mentally trained people who recognize no responsibility except towards themselves, or a society made up of men and women who have acquired not only mental training but quality of soul"
 Defects
 I do not intend what l have said as an indictment of every particular of our educational sys- tenn but I do wish to call atten- ton to its most notorious and perniciouS defect.
 It is. think a hopeful sign of true progress in the educational world that educators themselves are beginning to recognize that a system of which we may be so justly proud in other respects is shamefully inefficient in the all important one of character train ing. It is an even more hopeful sign that they are discussing it openly and bravely and that they are no longer fearful of being labelled fossilized antiques. More over they are trying to do some- thing about 1t.
 Educators are reaching the in- evitable conclusion, some of them with the utmost reluctance, that there is no true education without character development, that there is no character development with out moral principles, and that there can be no sound moral principles without some religion.

Let Us Not Be Fooled By
Crocodile Tears

An-wise Mother Nature forgot to euuiD the crocodile
with regular tear glands, so that when this rather ter
rifying reptile weeps he is generally supposed to be
getting ready to bite somebody; and it is worth re-
membering that the same rule often applies in the
BIG wide world OF human affairs.
Just at present a great many tears are being shed
BY British statesmen about the deplorable condition
Of the British fleet. Since a biz naval conference Is
due to be held In a short time. there Is a natural sus-
picion that these tears are Of the crocodile variety.
Let's have a look at things and see.
The recent EXCHANGE OF harsh looks between Mus
solini and Stanley Baldwin IS supposed t. have re-
vealed the pitiable weakness OF England's sea forces.
We are told that the British fleet IS deficient IN bat
tleshirs. III cruisers, in submarines. in e%vervthin~ that
makes an admira1s life worth living. and that the
Mediterranean show caused the empire as a unit to
quake in its shoes because OF the fleets weakness.
Now 1t happens that there are two prominent Eng
Hshmen. amply Informed on naval matters. who don't
sqree With this diagnosis. They ere Lord Stabbed.
formerly Lord Kenworthy. an ex-naval officer and
member Of Parliament and the Right Honorable
Albert v. Alexander, former First Lord OF the Adj
miralty.
These men say bluntly that Rnpland's new Is stfl
the strongest on earth. They point ont that Eng
land has the two most modern battleshirs aToaf IN
the Rodney and Nelson; that her Hood Is the
mightiest warship IN the world: that the British navy
Is the only one which possesses battle cruisers nav
ing three Of these craft; and that when ships now
under construction are finished. Britain viii have IL
more cruisers than any other power on earth.
That is not a picture OF a navy that Is rotting
away IN the midst OF heavily-armed enemies. Il IS
rather q picture OF the worlds greatest sen power
taking care that Il remain the worlds greatest sea
power.
IN that case. why the crocodile tears?
Well, this naval conference IS coming: end II the
way can be paved properly. Americans will pat the
mother country tenderlv on the back and tell her for
heavens sake to 20 build a few warshiDs before her
fleet falls apart on her. Then. when the dust set
ties, they win find that they have kindly negotiated
their own navy into permanent inferiority.
Maybe 1t would be good policy for America to ac-
eept second place. That isn't the point. The point
Is that whatever they do should be done with o1en
eyes. Being fooled by crocodile tears can be costly.
