AIS EMPTY PHRASES.

The former Happy Warrior" has gotten it off his chest but it leaves with feeling that it didn't measure up to what was widely heralded to be a body blow at the New Deal Rather it was just an- other speech that Alfred E. Smith made before his brothers in the American Liberty League Saturday night in Washington. The wealthy former Democrat presidential candidate might well of accepted that invitation to the White House. He didn't anything in his address that would take the smile off the face of the White House occupant In fact President Roose velts smile is probably broader when he that it is Al Smith who is duckng party obligations and not himself an which the President bitterly accused by reactionary critics
 If had not known who was talking could easily have suspected Fletcher of the Repub lican National Committee speaking from the theme of the remarks. Or. MT Hoover, who is equally "un constitutional in his comments Yes the wealthy of the famous Empire State building in New York indicated very clearly that he still longing for the good old days of Hoover prosperity when wheat sold for twenty-five bushel but everything just fine for MT Smith high up in his magnificent Empire State edifice
 The Roosevelt policies, said the Respondent warrior hasn't solved the farm unemployment prob lens. President Roosevelt will be the first to admit they not solved, and they haven't been for 30 years. Both we have always with The point which MT Smith purposely overlooked, Is that they have been improved under the Roosevelt regime to point where farmers again getting decent price for their product and millions have been able go back to work in industry a result of the farmers inl- proved purchasing power
 MT. Smith bounced the various agencies the President and Congress set up machinery to get the nation out of the depression, and shouted with typical Republican abandon at the unconstitutonal ity of the acts But not did the atfabe Al make suggestion for improvement. No, MT. Smith walled about expenditures about the danger class bureaucratic suppression of American liberties and the substitution of Socialism for Democracy All fine phrases but of which will bear close andy sis the rich Liberty Leaguer well knows. That probably is why he stuck to generalities.
 The former New York Governor declared it "pained him to speak against Democratic administration it pained a lot of Democrats and Republicans alike more to think he didn't make better speech There was time when the old Happy Warrior could have been dynamite but apparently age, personal security and comfort have their price. And, of course, Al in the wrong bailiwick. He just can't make a good Republican speech. He's made too many good Demo- cratic in the days before he got he admitted distressed and "dstrustful."

A Bad Subsidy
Cincinnati Enquirer)


 There is relatively little real controversy to the features permanent neutrality bill ought to have But proposal needs to be stamped clearly unde srable before it finds it's way into law. That is the proposal put forward by group of allied peace ganizatons at their recent conference to subsdize those exporters whose business is injured by restric- tons bellgeren trade. By this proposal the United States Treasury would pay subsidy to such firms as lose export trade when the exports of certain modtes to warning countries held to normal quota
 dole to certain industries is bad in itself, and Stration that would invite abuse More important there is no logical reason why the taxpayers of the country should pay particular exporters for refraning from commerce that is calculated to plunge the whole try into foreign war To suppose that exporting n- dustries would demand subsidy of this sort is sup pose that they would backmail the remainder of the country threatening to draw us all into war if they are not paid off
 Ours is country of peaceful intent. If it proves necessary, as it probably will to impose limits on our commerce with beligerents means of keeping out of war, Government certainly has the right and the power to set up such restrictions through proper leg slation. It is likely that such policy might injure some business enterprises much than others But the paramount problem is to avoid embodiment in war, and the whole country ought to have the right to regulate foreign trade sufficiently to escape the appalling losses entailed in conflict abroad.

THE STEROSCOPE

The STEROSCOPE is a new in strument that have added to my X-Ray equipment. These sterescope X-Ray pictures bring out the third dimension or depth and show rota
 tionS or twists in the spine that have been overlooked before. Chronic cases of disease that have not responded to the old method of chiropractic are getting well today.
 Why suffer with chronic head aches, constipation, rheumatism, paralysis, appendicitis, bronchitis, high blood pressure, neuritis, stom- ach, spleen and liver trobles, when scientific X-Ray chiropractic will remove the cause of these diseases. Investigate. Consultation costs you nothing and may mean your health.

 Juneau was up-to-date. Manager B. J. Margrie, of the Alaska Electric Light Company, had a small crew of men employed in thawing water pipes with electricity.

NORTH TARRYTOWN, N. Y,
Sept. 8. (UP).-Elsie Janis, gol-
den-haired "Sweetheart of the
A. E. F." played the most dra-
matte role of her life yesterday as
she walked to the lawn of her
25O-year-old castle Philipse and
opened the auction of all her
worldly possessions because OF
"divine inspiration from God"
The slim, 47-year-old actress,
dressed in polo shirt and corduroy
Stacks. welcomed a crowd of 1000
to the sale and told how she would
use the money to aid underprivi-
legged children after paying of
her debts. Cameras began to
grind and Little Elsie" hardened
by overseas service, shouted:
"You guys with the moving PIC
ture cameras-can the cameras. l
don't want any movies. You chaps
with the still cameras are all right.
I've been in Hollywood, and l
know the sound of a movie cam
era when l hear it."
The crowd roared approval and,
R. E. Manley of Hartford, Conn.,,
mounted the auctioneer's block to
begin the sale. The first article
was a book-autographed by the
actress - entitled without Cen

Roosevelt Starts Southern Tour Tonight
THREE BODIES SUBMERGED
ALMOST 4S HOURS IN LAKE
HAVE NOT BEEN RECOVERED
Efforts Made to Obtain Div
ing Outfit; Search Is
Proceeding

Almost 48 hours after they were
drowned in Lake Summit, the
bodies of two men and 10-year-
old boy had not been recovered
from the lake.
The drowning of the three, La
fayette Black, so, Lafayette, Jr..
10, and Thomas Martin, "a, all of
the Lebanon community, Ander-
SCUM county, S. c., occurred about
4:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon.
Undaunted by their lack of sue
cess, several parties, working in
small boats, kept up dragging OPP
erations this morning. The drag
ging parties have worked almost
continuously since late Sunday
afternoon.
Sheriff M. N. Orr today made
efforts to locate a diving appar-
atus with which to explore the
lake bed, but his efforts had been
unsuccessful this afternoon. 1t is
thought that the nearest such div
ing suit was probably at Norfolk
EVa., or Charleston, S. G.
b This afternoon Sheriff Orr was
having another type of GRAPHING
hook constructed and these vii
probably be put in use late today
Hooks at present in use are large
ly of iron having three or -four
prongs each. The new type, EN-
ployed successfully on several oc'
casions by the Charlotte fire de-
partment, will be made from 6
10 ig lead pipe and will have a row
Eof hooks several feet long.
Workers have been severely
handicapped in their efforts by
the depth of the water, which /:
approximately so feet deep, anc
the fact that the lake bed is rough
and filled with debris. Any num-
Der of large branches and ever
small trees have been brought VI
on the hooks.
