TURF CHATTER
By Razz Brown

The most carefully arranged
betting coup in many moons was
staged at the Empire City TRACK
on Mower, reminding us of a SINH
lar coup on a horse named Pur-
chase, owned by the same stable
which housed many high class
horses such as Peanuts. High
Strung, Sun Edwin, Top Tow.
The form players at Arlington
Park have had the worst year in
history at the track. Public choices
are usually in the rear and the
climate has had much to do with
form shown by horses recently. In
August and September true form
should show up. Granville, tough
lack horse earlier in the year
should turn out this year as the
best three year old e.. He lost four
important Stakes by i'll luck

back at Fairgrounds. We all will
try to get our winter coal if we are
lucky. Anyone interested in

Universal telephone service, the
dream of pioneer men and women
since the first connection was estab-
lished between Alexander Graham
Bell, the inventor, and Thomas A..
Watson, his assistant, March 10, 1876,
Is more and more nearing a reality.
Telephone communication to y
reaches nearly 10 countries and geo.
graphical locations on the six conti-
nents of the world, with 30 billion
calls annually. Of the total calls about
Is billion are made between users Of
the service in the United States where
there are more than half of the total
telephones in the world.
In this country there are about 1874
telephones for each 100 of the 1857
100000 population, which is over six
times the corresponding telephone de-
velopment of Europe, according to the
Bell Telephone Quarterly. Canada
continues second in development with
IL telephones for each 100 people.
Denmark has 1921 telephones and
New Zealand 1920 for each 100 of its

BLIGHT RESISTING CHESTNUT
TREES

Chestnut trees will come back and
Maryland boys and girls and young
people will have the joy of chestnut
parties again if the experiments be-
ing conducted by the Soil Conserva-
ton Service, Department of Agricul-
ture, in Maryland prove successful,
according to information received by
Arthur e. Hungerford, State Direc-
tor, National Emergency Council
In the three Soil Conservation
demonstrations at Boonesboro, Wash
ington County; HARDWOOD, Anne
Arundel County; and White Hall,
Baltimore and Hartford Counties,
21OO trees have been planted on the
farms of farmers who are cooperat-
ing.
Two varieties of Chinese chestnut
trees and a hybrid of one of the
Chinese varieties and the American
chestnut have been planted. The
trees are two or three feet high.
o. c. Bruce, State Coordinator,
Soil Conservation Service, says it is
too early to pass judgment on the
success of the experiment.
Extensive experiments in develop
ing blight resisting species are being
carried on at the National Agricul-
tural Research Center, Beltsville,
Maryland. F. w. Besley, State For
ester, is watching these experiments
with deep interest and will take
prompt advantage of them as soon as
results are certain.
The chestnut trees of Maryland
and practically the entire country
have been destroyed by a blight
which first appeared in Long Island
in 1898, which was identified in New
York in 1904, and was reported in
1908. In the course of the next ten
years the blight had spread over the
entire eastern section of the country.
Year after year the old chestnut trees
and stumps have put out new shoots
which have fallen victim of the blight
as soon as they reach a height of
from to IL feet.

Who FumbIed?

The key to the acceptance speech of Governor Ali M. Landon of Kansas, delivered to the nation at large Thursday night from Topeka, Kansas, as generally accepted by the republican press of the nation was use of the word "fumbling" as applied to the means taken by the demo- cratic administration of President Roose- veIt to counteract the deadly paradise credited in this nation throughout twelve long years of republican miSrule and exploitation. As the governor put 1t. =. "The time has come to stop fumbling with recovery.
 That's a brave statement, but then acceptance speeches are supposed to rep resent the candidate as in brave, cheer full mood, in which he looks ahead at what he intends to do, not back at what his rival may be attempting to do. Re- publicans are bit forgetful these days. Either that or the truth is that the rec publicans who nominated Governor Lan- don with hope, fervor, and prayer are not the ones who were behind the Hard- ing, Coolidge, Hoover administrations. That this statement may be true is not hard to believe.
 The wise voter in 1036 will attempt by some means to project himself back to 1928 and 1882 when republicans were travelling high, wide, and handsome. Re- call the bitter days of 1928 when every means, foul or fair, were used to belittle the man who headed the democratic ticket, Alfred E. Smith. Recall the same scene four years later when republicans fumbled this way and that after four years of Hoover and no effort made to recognize conditions nor to prepare for them. There was fumbling then and the democrats recovered the'ball
 They still hold it. we see no signs of fumblIng fin 1886. Four years has made 6 vast difference in the outlook Of every voter. It has been necessary to readjust ourselves to changing economic condi- tions. Much of this might have been avoided, had common sense, instead of stubbornness ruled in the period from 1929 to 1883. This business of making republican rule and prosperity synony- nous was the crowning mistake of a mis- taken administration. Four long years have democrats slaved to bring order out of chaos. We don't call 1t fumbling, Governor Landon; others will agree with us,

Candidate, Not President

In publicly apologlzing to President Franklin D. Roosevelt for terming him "liar" in his remarks at the Old Age Re- volving Pension convention at Cleveland last week the Rev. Charles k. Coughlin claims that his remarks were leVeled at Candidate Roosevelt and not President Roosevelt. However, there is no back sliding on the part of the radio-priest. And we should say that his open letter of apology won't go very far towards ap- peasing those who felt that his Cleve- land remarks went just beyond what even he, the most outspoken political critic of this age, should say.
 Still no one can gainSay the fact that he is entitled to his opinion whether 1t be on President Roosevelt personally or his policies since he entered the White House. Methods often make or break man and 1t is in this regard that we feel that discretion often is necessary where outspokenness might be dangerous. One thought that emerges from all this wall lowing back and forth between two per- sonalities and two lines of thought is how far may Father Coughlin project himself into the political arena without endangering his National Union for Social Justice?
 There are thousands of followers of the cardinal points of his National Union who are not so politically-minded that they contemplate setting brother against brother, house against house. Yet 1t is not inconceivable that this will happen If feelings on pertinent subjects which vex the state of the nation cause remarks to be made that kindIe fires of hostility and bias. Religious feeling was appar- ent in the iIl-fated election of 1928; we should hate to have it make an appear aElce in 1036.

consider fair division, and in the struggle everybody loses
 ds there any end Co it except destruc. ton? Spain has long since sunk from her proud level of world power. She has been since the Spanish-American war Q third-rate nation. Must she sink lower still? Or is there enough energy and in- telligence left in the Spanish people to make a new start?
 Of the peasants, who form the largest class and who are starved for lack of land, an American observer says: T have seen peasants the world over, but never finer examples than the men of Castle. They are the proud descendants of 6 warrior race, the men who conquered the New World. They are illiterate but not ig- norant. They know what goes on in the world. They gather in the village coffee houses in the evenings and have the news papers read to them. Such race cannot be held down." Equitable land-diviston migl1 save them and save Spain.
 The next most important group, the industrial workers of the cities, have suf- fered the fate of their class the world over. They are mostly Socialists, but not of an extreme type, resembling the mod. crate Socialists of France. They want an Industrial republic" that will give them a better chance. If they and the peasants could unite in moderate policy, suppressing the extremists on both sides, Spain might yet recover.

The Fifth Party

Four parties have been heard from rather liberally so far this summer - republican, democratic, socialist and union. Now fifth, the communist, ail- nounces the beginning of it's campaign. Earl Browder, candidate for the presi- dency, will open at Denver on August 5.
 It will not be world-stirring event. The most interesting and significant thing about it, perhaps, is simply this --- that Providers address will be broadcast, like the addresses of the other party can didates. Moreover, in addition to various national radio hook-ups, arrangements have been made for local broadcasts of all Browder's speeches starting in Septer1- Der. Some conservatives will not like this. They will think 1t is ""going too far with free speech" But 1t is the American idea and the American system.
 At their best-or worst-Mr. BroWder and his friends will hardly set the country on fire this fall. Voters are immensely more interested in the real contestants. And as far as these particular reds are concerned, it's probably safer -- In the American and English way -- to let them talk than to bottle them up
