WASHINGTON, May 9 U.P)-Gov.
Ruby Laffoon of Kentucky, ap-

colonels whom he has created, has
thought up new stunt.
In the past to certain specially
honored individuals, Laffoon has is

holder to be a full-fledged Ken
lucky admiral with all the honors,
privileges, duties, etc, which the
rank bestoWs.
Now for the first time he has
created a Kentucky colonel-admiral,
no less.
First holder of this broad title is
His Excellency, Augusta Russo
Italian ambassador to the United
States.
Russo ventured into Kentucky to
attend the derby and before he knew
it he was invested with the title
The ambassador is a little uncertain
about his honors, privileges ano
duties but there seems little doubt
that he outranks plain Kentucky

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
g Is AMERICA REPUBLICAN,?

. 1t was Will Rogers who said that the Republicans
never quite liked to have the United States called
democracy. And now Senator Borah denying
the assertion of John E. Coykendall that he was
starting "a fight with the Old Guard Republicans
who still control and will continue to control the
conservative Republican vote of the country" re-
marks that "this country is very largely Repuh-
hcan," and adds that President Roosevelt cannot
be reelected without Republican votes.
81 Actually the welfare of the United States ought
to be of larger interest to citizens than whether
any party normally controls majority or whether
any particular individual will be elected to office
Americans have been taught so long that the state
of the nation depended on certain party or 2
certain candidate that half the time-and especial
ly just before eleetions-they believe it. But it
isn't so. Prosperity rarely depends on politics.
What is true is the fact that political results de-
pend on whether the people believe one party o..
another will promote their prosperity.
The key to next years election-since we seem
incorrigbly political and interested more in next
years election than this years recovery-is wheth
er Mr.. Roosevelt appears to the majority of Ameri
cans as the agent or the enemy of prosperitv Tn
the current Yale Review, Walter Lippmann has
pointed out that ever since NRA ended and recoy-
cry continued the New Deal has appeared less and
less popular because the peosle have perceived
that it is not synonymous with prosperity He does
not say that the country is Republican but that the
people are conservative, quite ready to be left
alone so long as business is good.
This view fails to recognize certain elements tina,
seek reform even without recovery. And it assumes
that prosperity has returned. But can any country
with 1O,OOO,OOo unemployed be conservative? The
people may feel that the New Deal has not fulfilled
many of its promises and has not got rid of unem.

think they can ride back into power merely on
