DIR. WEISS

a MONG the fortunately few political assas-
sins who have stained the republics
history with blood, the killer of Senator Long
was unique in that he was seemingly sane
and selhess, type familiar to the Old World
tyrannies but new to this country.
pr. Carl A Weiss, apparently, had no per-
sonal grudge and no crack-brained mission.
His father-in-law, a judge, was a political
enemy of the Long machine, but contrary to
first reports, his job apparently was not in
Jeopardy. The reason for the action of Weiss
was deeper than that
AS described by his uncle the young man
"was an intense and earnest lad who lived
for humanity" He felt the Long expressions
so keenly that once, while listening to group
of fellow-p physicians discussing them, he got
up and left the room with tears coursing down
his cheeks. Apparently he quietly came to the
conclusion that some one must remove Long
as an enemy of the state, and that he would
elect to do it, at the cost of his own life.
Former American assassins were different
John Wilkes Booth, who shot Lincoln was
fanatic. Charles Jules Guiteau, who shot Gar
field, was an embittered office seeker Leon
Czolgosz, who shot Mckinley, was an anarchist.
So was Giuseppe zangara, who sought Frank
lin Roosevelts life in Miami and killed Mayor
Anton Cermak of Chicago. The attackers of
Theodore Roosevelt and Mayor Gaynor we're
both unbalanced.
Dr. Weiss was unlike all these. He can not
be dismissed as just another crack-brain.
CzariSt Russia, that trod so long and so cruelty
upon the people, gave birth to many such
assaSsins Pray. heaven that future conditions
in our country may be such that Dr. Weiss
will be our last as well as our first!

AN ELEPHANT STORY
LOW important is timing!

HOW important is timing!
Had the Van Sweringens been born q
generation earlier they might have made their
dream come true. But economic fate decreed
that new form of transportation should grow
great IN the very years that they were striving
for their railroad empire and so now the en-
pire goes on the auction block Scoffed at as
a competitive menace in the years when they
were starting the automobiles seems to have
done for them and their ambition.
Standing as a symbol of what happened is
the Cleveland terminal. one of the most beau
tiful, most elaborate and most costly in the
world.
For couple of decades before its actual
construction was started a battle about where
the union station" should be located had been
going on. The fight extended way back to the
days of Tom L. johnson, Clevelands greatest
mayor. Johnsons dream was the mall which
today is thing of impressive beauty along
the lake front and into which he and his fol-
lowers thought the station should go.
The other faction was for a station on "the
square" several blocks in from the lake front
Finally, the vans entered the picture. They
came forth with plan of such grandeur that
'the square" it was. The Van Sweringens
won That is. they thought they Won
In those years of the great location dispute
the word travel meant railroad, but as the long
controversy neared its climax that thing which,
in Tom Johnson's day. had been the horSeless
carriage had risen to the dignity of automo-
bile. and. at pace the significance of which
railway operators did not sense, was beginning
to compete.
And it is one of the ironies that the great
est squirt forward in the building of motor cars
and hard-surfaced roads occurred during the
years in which the union station was actually
being tunneled into The earth and then lifted
into the sky. BY the time the multimillions
of dollars had finally been spent multimillions

CANADA GIVES HER ANSWER

A NY one who doubts that a self -governing
dominion in the British empire enjoys
self-government in fact as we'll as in name
need only read the recent statement by Prime
Minister R. B. Bennett of Canada concerning
the dominion's foreign policy.
Premier Bennett gave Canadians a fiat
promise that Canada will get into no foreign
war that is not made necessary by a defense
of Canadas own immediate interests. Canada
will defend Canadian rights, but it will mot
be involved in any foreign war where the
rights of Canadians are not involved"
All this read against the background of
possible war between England and Italy, is
exceedingly interesting. Canadians are proud
of their place in the British empre-but they
masters of their own destiny, and no one
is going to cajole them into going to war for
the empire unless it seems good to them. Or
at least these are the sentiments of her prime
minister

thing that might have been thought up by a
bright lad in tie fifth grade. 1t is so decep-
lively simple. so completely and perfectly
logical-on the surface.
Farmers. 1aborers and business men have
been having hard times lately because trade
has been slow. Trade has been slow because
people haven't been buying things. People
haven't been buying things because they
haven't had enough money.
Why haven't they had enough money!
Well. it seems to have been rather scarce. And
where does money come from? Why, it is
issued by the government. What, then, could
be simpler than to settle everything by hav-
every month to everybody in sight? Then
everybody will have plenty. things will be
bought once more, and all hands will be happy
It's all sweetly reasonable and logical
until you take into consideration the fact that
money which is ground out at that rate soon
becomes as worthless as a marshmaIow which
fell off the toasting fork into the Goals.
But although it is ridiculously easy to tell
just why and how the scheme won't work, it
isn't anywhere nearly as easy to say what
should be done about the difficulty which this
scheme was devised to meet
Back of it all there is widespread feel
ing that the only thing which ais us today is
some defect in our circulating medium. We
can raise enough food to provide three boun-
tiful meals a day for everybody in. the land
We can build enough houses to give every one
a comfortable home. We can make enough
autos, radios, refrigerators, chairs, washing
machines, cigaret lighters and clothespins to
equip every mortal in more luxury and COM
fort than kings and queens enjoyed two gen.
erations ago. We have the plant to do all of
these things, We have the workers, the skill
and the energy.
And yet we have millions Of people going
without these comforts because they can't pay
for them; millions of people going joblesS be-
cause these things aren't being sold
1t is all very well to deride the Alberta plan.
But dizzier schemes than that will be taking
hold before long if we don't find some way of
unlocking the doors of plenty No man vet
was ever content to starve in the middle of a
granary.

Urges Street Repairs

fear OF broken springs. The street
is rutted and standing in the
middle of the road one gets the
impression of billoWing ocean
waves.
Chuck holes are making their
appearance on many streets and
it is only a matter of time until
most of the city's traffic is con-
centrated on the few remaining
streets which are in good condi-
ton. The result of this heavy
traffic will be the complete break
ing down of these streets and In
dianapolis will then find itself in
the predicament of making ire
mendous outlay for street i'm
provement.
A little foresight and long
range planning is the only way we
can come out of this dangerous
situation. Street repair must be
carried on continuously.
Mayor Kern and the chief
executives of his administration
can be assured of one thing. The
residents of Indianapolis will
stand solidly behind them in any
constructive undertaking to i'm
prove the city'S streets.
All that seems to be needed is
some action. 1t is to be hoped
that the mayor will act swiftly.

A LAUGH ON HITLER

ONE day last July there was nasty little
riot aboard the German liner Bremen in
New York harbor. The riot occurred when
the New Workers objected to the unfurling of
a swastika flag, and the cops had to be called
to restore order.
BY way of showing its appreciation for the
officers services, the North German Lloyd
steamship line made them gifts of money. The
officers had to get permission from their SUI
perlors to accept the gifts: and so, the other
day, it came out that one of the men thus
rewarded was Detective Matthew Solomon
who is as Jewish as the ancient king.
And in this dryly humorous little story
there is all the commentary needed on the
essential brainlessness of Nazi anti-semitisn.
Here we have Jewish policeman being re-
warded for protecting the Nazi flag from at
tack by Jews. The joke would seem to be on
Herr Hitler.

MARKED FOR DOOM

WHEN Baron POmpeo Aloisi and his asso-
ciates on the Italian delegation walked
out Of the League of Nations council session
the other day, they put the seal and signature
on the worlds general declaration of lack of
confidence in the leagues ability to enforce
peace.
But It would be foolish to blame the Ital-
ians for the leagues failure. The seeds of that
failure were planted long ago, and all the
great nations had hand in their sowing In
deed, the responsibility ultimately seems to
rest on human nature ITSELF for it's inability to
be courageous and far-sighted.
The league was born of mingled despair
and hope The end of the World War found
the people of the world sick of war as thew
had never been before in all history. Thew
were not quite sure that the war had not &C
tual1y wrecked civilization; they were quite
sure that new war would do so beyond dis
pute. They evolved the league as their safe
guard.
But it was cursed from the start. The dip
lomats at Paris were not the men to fashion a
new world
Lloyd George had just won an election on
"hang-the-kaiser" program Clemenceau
was cynical and vengeful, determined to see
Germany crushed. Wilson was visionary and
arbitrary, impatient of advice and ready to
invest the hopes of the world in a gold brick
These men shaped the league. They tied it
up with treaty that was obviously and I'M
mistakably unjust. They arranged things so
that the league could be used to enforce the
provisions of this treaty. Then they went
home and awaited developments.
What happened after that was only too
natural. America solemnly washed her hands
of the whole performance. France began en-
ergetically to use the league as an instrument
to insure her own victory over Germany.
England contributed many pious phrases.
sat tight on the former German colonies and
quietly sabotaged the naval disarmament con-
ferences.
So it became evident, after while, that a
stream could rise no higher than its source.
The source of the league was the jealous and
watchful nationalism of the great powers. The
powers were not ready to limit that nation
alism
10 make the league living, working affair
involved risks; it was in other words, a high
~ speculative investment. Mankind in gen.
eral simply refused to take the risk.
So the league demonstrated its impotence:
hrst when Japan marched into Manchuria,
later when Italy set out for Ethiopia.
The fault is not Japan's or Italy's. It is.
rather fault all civilized peoples must share.
We simply were not ready to help bring a new
world order into existence

CLAIMS CITY HAS POOR
RECORD FOR TRAFFIC
BY Safe Driver

BY Safe Driver
The indianapolis Times has been
in the fore of the fight to reduce
automobile accidents, but it seems
as if you've neglected one potent
factor that might be used to shame
our citizenry and our public Off
Gals into making drives for safe
traff1cways personal instead Of spas
modic.
That factor is that indianapolis
must have a lot more fools at the
wheels of cars than other cities in
the nation if figures of fatalities
tell the true story.
A check of a few of the cities
showing the toll this year compared
to indianapolis will reveal, I be-
lieve, that indianapolis, consider
ing population, is a killer" city
where youth and adults are not safe.
Here's hoping you renew your
drive on death-driving and the in
activity of the police in curling ia
tai accidents.

BY n. Ellis.
I am keenly interested in the
city'S efforts to push through the
railroad elevation program to
completion, and in thinking of
civic progress I think perhaps our
city officials are neglecting an i'm
portant factor in plans for improv-
indianapolis.
That factor is the condition of
our city streets. I think most of
our citizens realize that street re-
pair funds have been drastically
curtailed during these last few
years Of stress, but this situation
can not go on forever. Money must
be made obtainable for the repair
of our important thoroughfares.
Any motoriSt will tell you that
most busy thoroughfares are in
deplorable condition. N. Meridian
st, for instance, is sagging on both
sides all the way from 10Th st to
Fall Creek-blvd. What was a
beautiful four-lane street is now
merely a two-car road, the out
side lanes made practically unfit
for motor car travel by the break
ing down of the pavement.
Central-av, from 38th-st to
50th-st, is a deserted highway.
Few motorists dare to take their
automobiles on Central-av for

FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 10. 1895.
IF IL DUCE IS SPANKED .

DREMIER MUSSOLINI apparently has
burned his bridges In speech after speech
before cheering thousands. he has Numbered
his defiance to the League Of Nations and the
rest Of the world. Again and again he has said
there can be no turning back.
On the other hand Great Britain, through
her spokesman at Geneva. Foreign Minister Sir
Samuel Hoare, just as categoricalIy has put
his country on record backing League sane
tons to the hilt if Il Duce proceeds with his
adventure.
Yet If Britain and the League do inter-
vene, as Sir Samuel intimated they might,
1taly's spokesman declare that what would
otherwise be only colonial" expedition might
develop into another World War.
Perhaps the most ominious aspect of the
situation can be reduced to personal equa-
tion-to one man. Benfto Mussolini.
Mussolini is a dictator He is a child Of
destiny Born in the midst of the tumult that
followed the great war, he has been and still
remains the personiication of drama He has
proved he possesses rare qualities as a states
man, but he is, above all, theatrical figure
who thrives under the worlds spotlight
That makes it difficult for him even to ap-
pear to back down. We hope way can be
found for him to save his face, satisfy ItaIy's
admitted need for expansion and yet protect
the world from the peril now dangling over
1t. But it Will not be easy
No one better than II Duce knows that TO
continue to maintain his hold on the Italian
people he must march from success to sue
cess. An ordinary prime minister can have
his share of setbacks and still carry on. Even
a constitutional king can survive reverses. But
dictator. human pillar of fire whose people
follow him from sheer admiration of his au-
dacity day in and day out, dare not allow
himself to be made ridiculous His followers
cheer when he spanks others with his red hot
paper. but cheers turn to ieers if he, in turn.
is spanked.
The United States is not unmindful of the
perilous trend Last night Secretary of State
Hull once more reminded both sides of their
pledges under the Kellogg Pact renouncing
aggressive war, again throwing the not in
considerable weight of American opinion into
the scales against conflict.
Still it very much looks as if II Duce's war

or against the League" to achieve his ends.
So, if Great Britain and the. League do
set out to block him. as called for in the cove

pared to face the worst.
