Anne Sullivan Macy.

Helen Keller is alone today. Her
teacher Is gone beyond the summons Of
her cropping fingers. Anne Sullivan Macy,
exhausted from the labors of career
dedicated to her fellow creatures, has
been released to her reward. But the
woman whose soul she freed from dark
ness and silence-a living tomb-denies
that she is lost. Rather, it is only her
pain, her suffering, that has terminated.
The immortality she earned by her self
less devotion to others will protect her
forever from the finality which men call
death.
Mrs. Macy was one of the most re-
markable characters of modern times.
The noble courage Of her mind and the
generous charity Of her heart won for
her the respect and the affection Of all
who knew her story. Her marvellous gifts
of intelligence and sympathy, her gentle
ness. her sraciousness and her humility
made her . benediction to Thousands.
Evening star., 1936-10-21

She went through the world like = bless
ing, sanity in the inspiration Of her
example and her influence. Merely to
see her was TO- find new reason for being
proud of being human. She worked
miracles of faith and hope for the dis
tressed and heavy-burdened. Miss
Keller was but a single proof of her
genius. In her was demonstrated q
principle of universal significance and
application.
But the elemental majesty of Mrs.
Macy's spirit was most notably mani
tested in her insistence on her own
inconsequence. The ideal teacher, she
held, is merely channel through which
knowledge flows from its divine source
to its equally divine end. With good
humored m0desty she always deprecated
well-meant attempts to pay tribute to
her achievements. From the beginning
she preferred that Miss Keller should
be celebrated. Her personal choice was
to be simply the shadow Of her famous
pupil. The truth, however, seems to
have been that they were a partnership,
friends closer than sisters during nearly
half century Of unbroken association.
1t was Alexander Graham Bell of Wash
ington who brought them together. Once
they had met, each contributed to the
victory they accomplished over tragic
circumstance. And 1t was their happiness
to believe that their experience might be
duplicated commonly. No handicap,
they argued, is insuperable.
The lesson of their triumph, then must
be that of the efficiency of fortitude.
Possessed of the power to persist, the
people Of this bewildered planet can
solve any problem which destiny pro-
pounds for their discontinue. Surely
there is nothing that could be said that
would please Mrs. Macy more at the
moment of her departure nor comfort
Miss Keller more as she faces the future
without her.

is small, it Is true. But the District Alley
Dwelling Authority has been eminently
wise in feeling its way slowly, exercising
great caution In the expenditure Of Its
limited funds. It is going slowly because
1t is pioneering in risky territory. 1t Is
entrusted not only with the expenditure
of public funds, but with expenditure by
investment capable Of yielding sufncient
returns for reinvestment. It is trespass-
ing in fields hitherto regarded as reserved
for private enterprise and plenty Of
criticism awaits its first misstep.
The Alley Dwelling Authority is wisely
choosing a two-fold objective. 1t is
seeking, Of course, to remove the alley
shacks by converting the land to other
use or by erecting low-cost, low-rental
dwellings. At the same time. 1t Is at
tempting to interest private capital by
demonstrating possibilities regarded in
the past with considerable skepticism.
The first venture is under way. Its prog
ress will be watched with extraordinary
interest.

The number In the eyes Of this person
Is very ugly one.
It may be realized that when he strops
his razor he selects pleasing numbers,
and that Is the whole exten. of 1t.
Why psychology?
Likes and dislikes In numbers run back
through the ages; q most extensive re-
search would be required to show the
religious, superstitious, magical or other
influence which brings such states of
mind about.
All in all. what difference does it make
whether one strops a razor q certain
definite number Of times or Just does It
out-of-iland, without any idea at all of
the number of strokes?
The methodical stroker, let us say, is
. more methodical person. Isn't that
enough?
II such precise habits suddenly were
fastened upon one they might prove wor-
risome. but that Is the point: they are q
gradual growth.
One may feel sure that few youths
have such habits, but that many middle
aged persons will own up to them.
They are gradual, as most habits, and,
like many habits, no more harmful than
prior states, when such small peculiari-
ties do not exist.
People who live methodically often
find that practically all their habits tend
to run in grooves. They arise at the same
moment In the morning, spend about
the same number of minutes bathing,
descend to the dining room at almost the
same minute, eat breakfast in about the
same time. require the same number of
minutes. almost to the dot, to walk to
the public transport, etc, etc.
They may not consciously count theft
steps, either with or without the benefit
OF cane. but do take the same number
on identical missions. There is, you see,
method in their madness.
- ~
Probably the greatest inroad on daily
life OF mathematical counting was in
1etcherizing, or chewing mouthfuls of
food a certain set number Of times before
swallowing.
At one time this was popular diet
"fad" in this country, but it probably
died out more because such counting is
repugnant to most persons than because
there was more hokum than fact in the
plan.
rVSLCTeTlZluS ulameQ a1Ler horace
Fletcher, its propounder was simply a
sensible plan Of requiring people to eat
slowly. To carry it to the extreme of
counting chews was to make it a great
bother.
1t is strange thing, perhaps, that
people who fall into the habit of counting
their steps and in other ways permit
numbers to so enter into their daily lives
are usually persons who have an aversion
to mathematics as a science.
AS rule they were boys and girls who
were good" in English literature and
history in school days, but poor" or
fair" in algebra. etc.
Perhaps their turning to mathematics.
at last, is simple confession on theif
part that great is mathematics after all,
and that thus, in humble way at least,
they will pay tribute to great factor in
human thought and life.
1t will be just as well for all persons
with such habits to keep them to them
selves, as the saying is. Such matters
are commonly misunderstood, especially
by ignorant people, who find in them food
for their favorite diversion, poking fun
at others.

coming out for F. D. r. on the reciprocal
trade issue, the Warburg dynasty is a
banking house divided against itself.
Felix M. Warburg, uncle of the author
OF the anti-RooSevelt Hell Bent for
Election" and Still He'll Bent" preach
ments, has declared for Landon. The
coincidence Of young Warburg's Jump
onto the administration bandwagon and
Amos Pinchot's hop off the same chariot
causes politicians to reckon that, by and
large, bolts are pretty well cancelling
one another out.
Visitors who caught glimpse of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, while he camped out
at the White House for a few hours
this week found that, as usual, he's
weathering campaign wear and tear
Splendidly. Newspaper men who survived
his 5,000-mile swing across the country
and reported his SO speeches, say that
the President ran true to form by always
being the least tagged member of the
party. BY sleeping late and not begin
ming the rear platform ordeal too early
in the morning, Mr.. Roosevelt conserved
his strength and carried out untiringly
his grueling day and night schedule.
Like his neighbor, Borah Of Idaho
Senator McNary of Oregon continues to
refrain from any aggressive support of
the Landon candidacy. So far the G. o.
P. Senate leader has confined himself
to the local Republican campaign. Pos
sibly his mastery inactivity is due to
the certainty that Oregon is safe for
Roosevelt. The Senator's own reelection
is no less assured. The Canadian trade
agreement hits the Oregon lumber in
dustry and is correspondingly disliked,
but prospect Of New Deal Columbia
River project on T. v. A. lines offsets
the tariff treatys disadvantages. Nc
Nary identifies himself with that view.
In an article on New Deal propaganda
appearing in the November Farm Jour-
nal, Herbert Corey, veteran news writer,
paints breezy picture of Washington
at the dawn of the more abundant life.
Describing the days in which Capital
correspondents had their bewildered be-
ing, Corey says: Their imaginations were
seized by the $4,000, 100000 kitty and
Hugh Johnson's blackjack rhetoric and
Wallace's scheme to harness farmers to
his push buttons. Mrs. Roosevelt was
popping in and out of mines and Mr..
Roosevelt was holding his big-time press
conferences and Nine. Perkins was lift
ing her old-fashioned skirts in a new
fashioned dance, and Honest Harold and
Honest Harry were in-fighting, and sena-
torial witchfinders were dunking business
men, and Postmaster General Farley was
shelling out rare stamps to his personal
friends, and DR.. Stanley High was try
ing to catch the clergy, and DR.. Rex
Tugwell was running the wrong way OF
the field, and Ambassador Troyanovsky
was passing out platters full of caviar.
OF course, the New Deal got friendly
publicity in those early days. The town
was SO flooded with handsome young
Whoosits and Whosittesses that q con-
servative felt like q crab. If he raised
his voice in public he was drowned in
the shrieking."

Hopkins Place.

There was significance coupled with q
pretty sentiment in the ceremony yes
terday attending the formal wiping out
of old London Court, one of the notorious
groups Of alley dwellings, and its trans
formation into bright and spotless Char
lotte Everett Hopkins Place, recalling the
memory of a noble lady who did so much
to create and maintain interest in elimi-
mating Washington's alleys"
The event was significant because 1t
marked the tangible beginning of the
first practical effort, backed by public
funds, to end the distressing problem
of the alley dwellers by wiping out the
alley dwellings and creating in their
stead decent homes at rock-bottom
rentals. The beginning thus represented

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

Many persons nowadays will be able
to sympathize with q famous old English
man who had an eye to numerical ar
rangement In almost everything he did.
1t Is said that he regulated everything
according to mathematics, ever to the
stropping of his razor.
Beginning with his minimum" an old
account says, (which was two strokes, he
added one more stroke each day success
sively till he got up to number fixed
on as q maximum, on reaching which he
reversed the process, diminishing the
number by one each day, till the lowest
point was touched"
But this was far from all: E
His staff was put down on the ground
regularly at each fourth football, and the
number of its descents gave him pretty
accurate measure Of the space over which
he walked.
Habit had rendered the counting Of
these deScents an easy, indeed almost
mechanical, operation; 50 that though
meeting friends and sustaining an ami
mated conversation it stin went on"
- \
There are, perhaps, many more persons
who so regulate their lives than the
average person has any comprehension
of, because most people are acute enough
to realize that the revelation of such
habits simply permits thoughtless ac-
quaintances to lump them of as nuts"
or, at the least, eccentrics.
A modern psychologist would label such
habits compulsion neuroses and place
their blame on something which hap
pened in the early life of the subject.
1t Is being seen palmer every year that
psychology, as modernly interpreted, is
still very much Of theory, and, like all
theories, may or may not be supplanted
or greatly modified In the years to come
The man who has read his Freud and
Jung often feels that, at best, they and
their disciples simply have pushed the
unknown back to new. frontier of words;
that we are as far from genuine under
standing Of mind and soul processes as
ever.
Such small mathematical habits as in
stanced above are not things to worry
over in any sense, no matter what their
Interpretation.
AS one of the latest popular expositions
Of psychology shows. an average person
may profit from such mental quirks by
carefully cherishing them and working
with them.
There is satisfaction to numbers, for
instance, in many apparently unrelated
processes.
A gentleman in this town always gives
his small safety razor blade exactly 48
twirls with his left hand, then 48 more
with his right.
1t would be difficult to explain this on
any basis Of high-sounding words and
terms, no matter the authority behind
them.
May it not be, simply, a tuning of the
mind through mathematics to the small
task in hand?
Every one has q "favorite" number,
With many persons this number is II,
or some multiple.
Thus "a with such persons is almost
always secondary favorite number, as
il might be termed.
Usually the preference is based on
favorite primary numbers, such as 2, 4,
6, etc.
Our subject who gives 4S twirls to his
whirly-gig stropper is partial to even
numbers, with the exception Of 7, which
also is a prime favorite.

Beginning of the End?
President Azana's sudden removal Z,

President Azanas sudden removal from
Madrid to Barcelona, accompanied by
three cabinet ministers, strongly suggests
that the government has decided to give
up the ghost. The Presidents departure
synchronizes with the ever-tighter in
vestiture of the capital by rebel troops,
whose leaders boast that the city will be
theirs within a few days" General
Franco and other insurgent commanders
have INDUCED before In equally bonn
bastic predictions, only to have them
frustrated by the stubborn defense Of
fered by the Unfortunately recruited
Ieftist fighting forces. Feverish mobili-
zation of "taxicab army" on the famous
model invoked for defense of Paris in
the first battle Of the Marne is tell
tale evidence of the desperate straits to
which Madrid has been reduced to stave
of the Fascist drive for It's possession.
The loyalists insist the capital will
not be surrendered without last-ditch
fighting for every inch of its soil.
Reports have been current, as in
surgent successes brought Madrids doom
ever nearer, that the government as .
last resort would establish itself some
where in the coastal area still under its
control. President Azana declares that
his arrival at Barcelona Is only the first
step in "series of tours" to bolster the
courage of loyalist troops, but it is
acknowledged that his sojourn will be for
IAN indefinite period" Semi autonomous
Catalonia, of which Barcelona is the
capital, has been the governments prin-
cipal bulwark throughout the civil war,
and Senor Azana alleges he wishes to
show his gratitude for the provinces
valiant fight for liberty" The Presi-
dents wanderings are merely designed,
he claims, Ito fortify the peoples morale
and instill in them courage to continue
the struggle"
Despite these explanations, Senior
Azana's journey will arouse widespread
suspicion that it denotes the beginning
of the end for the radical regime. Fail
ure to secure needed support abroad is
probably the straw that is finally break
ing the back of Leftist resistance. Col
lapse of the Soviet Unions strong arm
diplomatic efforts to bring about STOP
page of supplies to the rebels from Ital-
ian, German and Portuguese sources
may have been the actual factor that
convinced Madrid of the hopelessness
Of its cause.
Perhaps President Azana and Premier
Caballero will derive a vestige of en-
coufagement from cryptic Moscow an
nouncements that the u. 8. s. r. has
devised program of aid that will save
the beleagured Popular Front, even II
Madrid falls. The Kremlin hints darkly
at plans that will stir the world"
Whether this foreshadows the dangerous
recourse of trying to run Russian NUM-
tions, supplies or even troops into Spain,
or, with Madrid's connivance, attempt
ing to smash the non-intervention pact,
whereby other countries would be at
liberty to assist the government, remains
to be disclosed. Failing such develop
ments, Azana's deserti6n of his capital
will seem signal of distress and
confession that the jig is up.
