Almost Pathetic

We listned rather attentively to the radio address given by ex-President Her bert Hoover last Friday night. It was in the interests of the republican party and Candidate Ali M. Landon, not the coun- try. That was clearly apparent before MT. Hoover had proceeded more than dozen lines and had been interrupted by the claque once for each line offered his listeners. MT. Hoover could give the public some interesting facts about rum ming the government of the United States, but he doesn't choose to do so. He prefers to remain martyr, an act at which he doesn't show to good advantage.
 It was pathetic to hear him talk about the great depression and how it came about. That in itself is something, for MT. Hoover as president of the United States never did recognize the fact that there was depression in the United States and that there was any real need for him to take extreme measures to pre- vent such dire conditions as prevailed in his last year in office and in the first two years of his successors administration. Yes, there was depression. MT. Hoover admits it now, but how he does tell how this depression came about and how it hit the United States.
 Were we prepared for it? MT. Hoover doesn't say anything about that or about prosperity being just around the corner, aS he and that greatest of all treasury secretaries, Andrew Mellon, declared so many times when everything on every side was proclaiming the fact that the United States must take stock and pre- pare to winter dread season of want and despair. Having skipped very blithe- ly over all this and his own share in the mess the ex-president proceeds to do lot of adding and subtracting in an effort to prove President Roosevelt's figuring faulty. It may sound good today, Herbie, but why didn't you do your adding, sub tracting, multiplying, and dividing when you were boss of the ranch?

Best to Be Silent

According to the press the Catholic Review, official paper of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, lectured both Monsignor John A. Ryan and Rev. Charles, E. Cough lin in its issue of last week. The paper is declared to be the official one of Arch bishop Michael J. Curley and in it's adinonitory article 1t said, If both, the Reverend Gentlemen would retire for some time to the Carthusian Order, where perpetual silence is observed, they would do great favor to the church and to the country at large. y"
 Somewhat similar thoughts have been running through our mind for long time However, we would not pick on just Monsignor Ryan and Father Cough lin as the hapleSs victims of any such orders. They are somewhat innocent victims of political happening. We hon. estIy believe that both are honest and sincere in everything they say. Monsignor Ryan's reputation is too well-establis to suffer by anything he may have said In the last week or ten days that might be regarded as touching on the political war now in progress. We don't think he meant to become involved in any such tanRIe.
 We do think, though, that the Mon slenor objected to persons concluding

Automatic Broadcasting

One of the most alarming features of this campaign -- and perhaps of all future campaigns = is the automobile radio. That is, if you happen to belong with the critical folks who view such things with alarm. Most citizens seem to like lem.
 We are referring to the auto radio as campaign instrument. A woman with a radio in her car, driving into an Arkansas filling station the other night with the instrument pouring out a perfectly inno- cent program, was greeted by the dis gusted attendant with the query, What candidate for governor is this?" Arkan- sas, like Louisiana and Mississippi, has grown familiar with the "sound truck" idea introduced into politics by Huey Long and now rapidly spreading over the country. An auto radio with little extra power can obviously serve the same pur- pose for small audience.
 It is easy to see where this siren practice is leading. Some manufacturers are now equipping all their cars with radios. Soon all the cars on the road will be potential broadcasters, and every important politi- cal speech can be, and perhaps will be, poured into the air from millions of volun- teer broadcasting stations. Isn't it a dreadful prospect?

from what Father Coughlin has said and will continue to say that his views are necessarily the final and to be accepted ones on such given matters as monetary questions. But as we said above, it would be far better if both the clergymen re- mained bit reticent henceforth, unless. asked for interviews or requested to speak on certain subjects at certain places. We would like to issue the same injunctions to a flock of others who are parading up and down the country foisting their views on anybody. and everybody.
 It's high time for a political revolt against all the blather that we suffer during this season of the year, A law ought to be passed that would forbid anybody not seeking political office to make political speeches. You can't blame voters for not knowing what to do on election day when they are treated to such a barrage of conflicting opinions and ideas such as assan us today. Let the candidates do the talking; let the orators retire to the Sidelines until Armistice Day, Memorial Day, and Fourth of July roll around.

Milk Route Heroes

Presentation of Pasteur medals for bravery was part of the program of the convention of the American Dairy Indus try in Atlantic City recently. Heroism is trait we rarely attribute to the man who delivers the morning milk. Yet the six courageous acts which won medals for six milkmen suggest that there is plenty of opportunity for excitement in their daily routine.
 One medal went to driver who saved the lives of family whose apartment he discovered to be filled with gas. Another was won by man who allowed himself to be lowered head-first into manhole to rescue little girl who had fallen in. When the police arrived the rescuer had continued on his milk route. Still another medal was given to a man who had fought flood waters for four days to deliver milk to city children. The fourth nero was .milkman who captured burg lar during his early rounds. Two others saved tenement buildings and their ten ants from fire.
 Presence of mind in an emergency, quick thinking, quick acting and selfless courage haven't been associated with milk delivery = but here's the record. Your own milkman may be real or potential hero,

The introduction of the electric chair to Connecticut as an instrument of capital punishment is going to be tragic one: Already two men have been condemned to execution by this manner. They will meet death in the chair next February Tn two successive weeks. While this is not a pleasant subject to discuss, it is one that is very much in peoples minds, inasmuch as crime is rampant in our midst and pre- meditated murder is committed oftener today than in the past when men and women were able to bridle their tempers or else feared the wrath of God and the heavy hand of the law. We wonder If people aren't too self-sufficient today for their own good.

The ruling by. Corporation Counsel Charles O'Connor on eligibility to vote is an eninently fair one A person who has complied with all the requirements and has not forfeited his or her right to the franchise should not be barred from the, polls because of a slip in address. Often times persons move their legal residences during the year and completely overlook the fact that they should notify the regis trars of voters so that their names will be transferred on the voting lists. This technicality, if it can even be called that, certainly does not deprive person of the right to vote. There has to be some thing more serious against the record than mere change of address. It might demand certificate to the effect that the change of address is found to be cor rect, but it certainly should not deprive anybody of the right to vote. We are glad that the authorities have made the point clear.

 SECOND, the Merry Go- Round survey shows that the Coughlin- Lemke third party movement has pretty well collapsed. It will not carry one state; in fact, LEMKE WILL HAVE 4 HARD TIME EVEN TO BE RE-ELECTED TO CONGRESS.
 In general people seem to have sized up Father Coughlin-as a blow-hard, never happy unless he is digging somebody's grave. At first he was a novel and dynamic saviour. Now the novelty has worn oil, and the dynamics have become distasteful.
 THIRD, the Catholic vote, which for a time seemed to be veering away from Roosevelt, Is now with him. Roosevelt always had strong following among Catholics and the tendency of church leaders in the last few weeks HAS BEEN TO OFFSET THE COUGHLIN AL SMITH INFLUENCE.

Some of the Midwestern states such as Nebraska and Minnesota, which they counted upon as certain, now are not so certain.
