these humans exist. They undoubt-
edy are interested In the abstract
theories of sociology and economics
as taught even by the most visionary
of our acaGamicians.
They do not believe these theories
can or should be converted over
night into actually or that the
American people are guinea pigs on
whom any wild-eyed professor
should be allowed to experiment
with injections of dissolved horse
feathers. These Republicans are
sensible men, although one would
not always suspect it.
What they are trying to do is keep
their own opinions under cover be-
cause these opinions do not coincide
with those of the Administration,
and the Administration, up to now,
has been able TO get votes. They
have become convinced that they
must hide their own common sense
under bushel lest some one doubt
1t.
NiIcS AuDuClty WcdkUcSS
To greater or less extent, the
same lack of political courage,
vision or Observation-Disclosures 1t
may be-afflicts many Republican
members of Congress. They have
voted, some of them, for almost all
of the Presidents legislation, hoping
to keep secret the fact that they
have better sense.
A few of them reasoned, perhaps
correctly, that the only way to ride
out the storm of depression was to
accept the Presidents try-anything
philosophy. But the storm is pass
ing, in spite of the New Deal, and
they can be themselves again. So
can the Republican Party.
The greatest weakness of the Re-
publican pre-convention campaign
has been its publicity, most of
which has reflected the follow-the-
leader attitude of the Republican
managers, and legislators.
Until few years ago there was
no such thing as conscious direc-
ton of political publicity. What
candidates and prominent MEM
bers Of the party, particularly in
Congress, did and said was printed
by the newspapers. That was the
publicity. 1t was satisfactory
system.
Hoover "Softened Up"
All that has changed since
Charley Nicholson, working for John
j. Raskob and Jouett Shouse chow
they regret it now went to work on
President Hoover. Nicholson direct
ed relentless barrage of publicity
on the President. He wrote the
speeches that his Democratic stooges
later delivered so that reports of
them could be insinuated into the
daily press. On occasion, he dropped
the subterfuge, issuing statements
signed but often not read by prom
inent Democrats.
When 1882 came along, Hoover
was softened up for Roosevelt. Polit-
ical publicity has followed the Mich
elson system since. Whatever may
be said for or against it, this sys-
tenn is now part of the game. The
Republican Party must abide by the
new ground rules. All the channels
of publicity, including the new one,
radio, must be used to best advan-
tage to get Republican arguments
to the voters.
1t takes political brains to do this.
Our party must use them. 1t isn't
doing us any good to be laughed at
by the country for our ineptness. A
political party, like an individual
can withstand attack more easily
than ridicule.

MURDER CONFESSION

MAIN Evidence OF State Against
Alleged Slayer of Writer.
By United Press
NEW YORK, May 21.-The con-
fession in which 24-year-old John
Fiorenza told police that he at
tackled and strangled Mrs. Nancy
Evans Titterton because she drove
me wild" threatened him today in
his trial for murder.
District Attorney William c.
Dodge intended to introduce the
signed confession this afternoon and
nail it down with testimony from
detectives and city officials for
whom Fiorenza re-enacted the crime
in the very apartment where Mrs.
Titterton, writer and wife of Ma
tional Broadcasting Co. executive,
was killed.
Dfense Attorney Henry Klauber
disclosed in his opening statement
yesterday that the confession on
which Mr.. Dodge staked so much,
was worthless as evidence because
Johnny Fiorenza is a wild, crazy
boy whose body and mentality have
deteriorated until he admits any,
thing"

Now George Voida, 10, is ready TO
graduate from Manual Training
High School with honors. Gabriel
Voida, IA, is junior at Manual.
Five years ago was not the first
time the boys had seen Indianap-
oils. Both were born here. But
when Gabriel was 8, the father,
George ST., became i'll and the FAM
| lily returned to Rulnania. The father
died on his farm near Bucharest
just as the family was preparing To
return to this country.
Anna Voida, the mother, scraped
together sufficient money for boat
fare and entrance requirements for
her sons and sent them here alone.
Although she could not come her"
self because she is not an American
citizen, America, she felt, was the
place for her sons. Had she not
helped George retain his English
against the day of his return by
reading to him from an American
Bible each week?
She is still in Bucharest, working
and dreaming of the time when
George can send for her. That is
Georges ambition too. 1t Is one of
the chief reasons he wants to go to
Purdue and fit himself for re-
sponsible job. For he can not bring
her over until he is 81 and earning
enough to care for her.
Considered for Scholarship
George is being considered for a
Manual scholarship now. Both he
and his brother are on the honor
roll. George is an Eagle Scout.
For the last few years George and
Gabriel have earned their spending
money by carrying The indianapolis
Timse. This summer George hopes
to get full-time employment so that
he can save some money toward 60
ing to Purdue.
When George and Gabriel arrived
in indianapolis, the Travellers AiG
Society took them in charge. George
remembered the name of his Sun
day School teacher at the Ameri-
can Settlement who had given him
the Bible. The American Settlement,

SURVIVAL OF RACE
 BENEFITS MANKIND
Jewish Heritage of Cul= ture, Valuable to World,
 Rabbi Declares

The Jewish race will survive and flourish despite the persecution to which it is subjected in several countries of the world today, de- clared pr. Robert Gordis, editor and lecturer, declared last night at the final mems club forum of the year at Beth Fl synagogue last night. A class mate of Rabbi William P. Greenfield, rabbi and Beth Fl, Dr. Gordis is a rabbi at RockaWay, L. I
 Pessimistic predictions of the fu- ture of the Jews will not be carried out, the speaker asserted, for Jew ish survival has been difficult all through the ages. Jews, he said have long been numerically few but they have carried on their religion and their civilization. Palestine was long the center of conflicts, he said and the Jewish race has been in exile for 20 centuries.
 Survival of the race will do much to aid mankind, Dr. Gordis said, for the Jewish heritage of culture and tradition is a valuable one.
