UNRESTRICTED DELEGATIONS

With the two big conventions but matter of days, political interest appears to settle around the widely heraded uninst1uced delegations Particularly is this true in Cleveland where contest for the nomination is in prospect. From all indications the first ballot at Philadelphia the gathering place of the Democrats June 23 will go for Roosevelt But things are different in Cleveland where the badly split up Republican for due to trot out their best. There the unin- structed delegates expected to play the deciding roll.
 Some where in the dim, forgotten past it was theory that uninstruced delegation meant the dele gates would their best judgment and nominate the candidate who would be most acceptable to most of the people. But that idea has long ago been exploded. There are delegates no doubt who would, if given an opportunity decide candidates solely their merits but of course those delegates are first timers and not well acquainted with convention procedure.
 In Cleveland it is going to be different story, and the Plain Dealer of that city says. it awaits the arrival of the c. o. P crowd June g. the lineup of unnstructed delegations bodes well for Governor Lan don of Kansas but that simply means the bosses as usual will decide on the candidate Commenting on the setup, the Plain Deaersays:
 Alfred M. Landon appears at the moment the
 probable Cleveland nominee though there
 plenty of possibilities ahead which might wreck his
 craft. If the Governor is named however, he will
 owe his success not to Landon-nstruSted delegates
 but to the several hundred 'uninstructed' dele
 gateS-delegates uninstructed because the party
 bosses wanted them uninstructed.
 Thus the Presidential primary, devised to curb
 the influence of party bosses is made to play into
 the bosses own hands. Comparati lively few of the nearly 600 delegates already chosen are actually instructed for Landon The rest. comprising dele gates claimed for Landon but uninstructed for him, will be voted at Cleveland as the leaders of the party see fit At the moment they are expect ed to see fit to vote them for the Kansas Governor
 Obvious ly, if the Presidential primary is ever to meet the hopes of those who devised it, there must be an end of the ''unnstructed' delegation. Vot- CTS must express their real preference for Presi- dent and Vice-President, and be restrained some how from abdcatng their authority.

AUTOMATIC LANDING
(NeW York Times

Few of the passengers of an arplane realize the responsibility thrown on the pilot during the crucial moment of landing, especially at night or in fog. Once he has picked up the radio beacon of an airport he must keep vigant eye on at least seven purely navigational instruments which in- dicate air speed altitude, rate of descent position relatively to the radio beam and the like Hence the research which has been conducted here and abroad during the last ten years to tighten the h- man task and make it possible to bring the plane down automatically. That the problem should at last have been solved according to dispatch from Chicago is welcome news. Safer air travel is the obvious end achieved.
 Yet it would be mistake to suppose that blind landing has at last been reduced to complete auto matcity Indeed it is doubtful if that goal will ever

be acheved-whether it is desirable to achieve it. The new gyroscopic robot becomes part of the two most important instruments an airport is ap- proached-the drectional gyro compass and the artificial horizon; the others must still be watched by the human eye.
 How little are we able to foresee the needs of tomorrow when the inventors have their way. Just about generation ago the Wrights vaulted into the blue without any instruments at all-de- lighted at leaving the ground. Horoscopes and pendulums were soon proposed to keep plane on an even keel in flight and thus to make flying less the virtuoso performance that it at the time Altitude and speed meters early became necessi- ties. But that some day instrument boards would present so bewdering array of indicators that one pair of human eyes could not encompass thlm all and that artificial senses would have to be devised to aid pilot-the pioneers never imagined that Yet 1t IS all natural evolution The airplane is becoming more and more bird-like. And birds are not the simplest mechanisms in the world.

unknown ship and was found some
years ago in Toulon. France. The
face carving is especially lovely and
the wave-worn mahogany from which
this symbol of immortal womanhood
has been shaped Is full of lights and
shadows and flows with deep, rich
bloom.
One of the latest acquisitions is the
figurehead of the barkentine Bear,
which was used by Rear Admiral Rich
ard E. Byrd for his second Antarctic
expedition. It was presented by the
noted explorer himself some months
ago. The wood-sculptured figure of a
large bear constitutes the figurehead
of the vessel.
The good ship Bear has had an
eventful history. Built way back in
1874 at Greenock, Scotland, she was
purchased 10 years later by the Fed
eral Government. That same year
she was assigned to the revenue cutter
service, now the Coast Guard, in
which she remained in active service
until 1926.
Other figureheads among the mu-
scum trophies are one Of Henry Clay,
taken from ship wrecked in the Bay
of Fundy, and one called the Hope Of
Salem, a sentimentalized vision of
womanhood.
The lofty walls are adorned with
paintings, prints and photographs de-
plotting scenes of sail and steam, old
sea engagements, early steamers.

TINE forthcoming meeting in the

Roosevelt and Gov. ALI Lam

is not without precedent in presiden-
tial campaigns, at least once. Presi-
dent Taft and Gov. Woodrow Wilson
met while candidates for President
in 1912. The event occurred in Boston
in the early Autumn amid interesting
incidents, as it Is recalled here by
newspaper men in the encourage Of
President Taft at the time.
The meeting was wholly unexpect-
ed and almost impromptu, and occas-
Toned only small furry, for excite

frowned on by President Taft, despite
that he generally was not averse to
publicity respecting himself. looking
upon it anyway as part Of the game
of public life. But there was no way
out.
In those days. the times were diff
ferent from what they are now as

tial candidates were not marked by
that acclaim that prevails today. The

Resemble Such Democrats as Woodrow Wilson and Thomas
Jefferson as Well as Calvin Coolidge.

Lincoln's fortnight denunciation of

as disrespectful toward the Supreme
Court as any of Roosevelt's remarks
about a recent decisions setting us
back into the horse-and-buggy age.
These crisis Presidents were ham

popular mind and in trying to keep
the ship of state of the rocks on
either side of the channel.
Franklin Roosevelt has often been
accused of attempting a revolution. If
there be some truth in this charge it
places him in the class with George
Washington, with this difference, that
George Washington's revolution was
much more sudden and violent.
When in 1889, Washington was
confronted with the task of reor-
ganizing his country's government, he
showed an attitude of hospitality to-
ward changes, even fundamental ones.

terment. With Roosevelt he shared
the view that there was need for q
central government more powerful and
more regulatory than those Of the
past.
Andrew Jackson's likeness to Frank
lin Roosevelt must be sketched here
in few words. They both seemed to
feel that they were leading a revolt
against oligarchy, either aristocratic
or plutocratic. and that they were
rescuing the common or forgotten"
man from oppression and exploita-
tion-by the United States Bank in
the 1905, by the economic royalists"
in the 1905. incidentally. the theory
that all good Democrats were entitled

THE task of comparing Candidate
Landon with his predecessors

Is still largely an unknown quantity,
especially so far as presidential COM
petence and national policies are con-
cerned.

At about the same time, Landon was

RECOMMENDATION and monopoly.
But the acid test Of his likeness to
Wilson will come If and when he as
serts his moral independence Of the
bosses who supported his nomination.
| Wilson was a cruel disappointment
| to the corrupt politicians who made
him Governor of New Jersey, and thus
started him toward the presidency.
He shocked them by proving to be not
| only honest but also intelligent and
masterful, and by carrying out a pro-
gram of progressive reform. If Lam
don wins the presidency his testing
day will not be far distant.
James Buchanan, when confronted
| civil war, urged moderation and con-
Citation as the appropriate means for
avoiding a dire conflict. He sought
rational and gradual improvement
of conditions, rather than a sudden
setting of one section against the other
in a fight to the finish.
Possibly this is somewhat like Mr..
Landon's unwillingness to witness a
decisive struggle between capital and
labor, or even between the rich and
the poor, such as President Roosevelt
Is accused of fomenting. Mr.. Landon
prefers the simple, common-sense
and traditionally American method
of evolutionary, rather than revolu-
tionary, settlement of disputes. Presi-
dent Buchanan proposed an explana-
tory amendment to the Constitution,
much as Mr.. Landon has done.
The fact that fight to the finish
did actually ensue in 1861 does not. of
course, prove the essential wrongness
