The Canny Poet

This peep at Longfellow, as a
business man, is permitted us by
Caroline Ticknor in "Glimpses of
Authors:
In November, 1855, soon after
"Hiawatha" had been published
and was selling madly all over
the country, a Boston newspaper
dared to criticize it adversely.
Soon criticisms concerning the
source of "Hiawatha" and ac-
cusations of imitation were made
by newspapers from coast to
coast.
Longfellow's publisher, James
T. Fields, was greatly annoyed.
One day, bursting into the poets
study, he exclaimed:
"These atrocious libe1s must
be stoppedP' US
Longfellow said quietly, "By
the way, Fields, how is 'Hiawa-
tha' selling?"
wonderfully! None of your
books has ever had such a sale"
"Then," said the poet, calmly,
II think we had better let those
people go on advertising it."

in control there. Then Franco, who
is only forty-three years old but

Algeciras, followed by the Foreign
Legion and lot of Moors, Moroc-

to Gibraltar, these contingents be-
gan march northward toward Sc
vile and Cadiz. There was severe
fighting in San Sebastian, where
the American embassy is located
in summer, and in other border
towns. Malaga was reported to be
in flames.
Commanders of the rebels assert
ed their aim was to "save the re-
public" to keep order and to de-
stroy the Marxists. In Barcelona
their attack was directed especially
against Luis Companys, president
of the Catalonian parliament, who
was said to be besieged in his Of
fees.
Jose Maria Gil Robes, leader
of the Catholic c. E. D. A. (Con-
federation of Autonomous Right

An aviator who escaped the rebels
in Morocco declared Gil Robes had
instigated the revolt.
Premier Santiago Casares Our
roga resigned in favor of Diego
Martinez-Barrio, speaker of parlia-

only few hours. Then Jose Giral,
former minister of marine, formed
a cabinet with General Pozas, who

Miss Charl Ormond Williams,
president of the National Fedora

would not dream of suggesting
that women go on strike" But,
she pointed out, "the possibilities
opened up are so upsetting that

According to Miss Williams.
nearly 100000 women are EN-.

Turkey Given Right to
Rearm the Dardanelles

FIGHT signatories to the Lau-
~ same postwar treaty have
granted to Turkey the right to re-
militarize the Dardanelles, and
they, with Turkey, have signed a
convention covering the matter.
Only Japan made slight reserva-
tons because it is no longer a
member of the League Of Nations.
The convention grants complete
liberty to merchant marine pas
sage through the straits in peace
time and wartime, even with Tur-
key at war, provided the CONNER
cial vessels do not assist the fight
ing powers.
The Russian navy is granted COM
plete freedom in peacetime to leave
and enter the Black sea through
the straits, but nations outside will
be subjected to limitations on pas
sage of fighting ships through the
channel. tn s
During wartime belligerents will
be prohibited from using the straits
unless acting for the league.

There was no opposition and the

Chen Chi-tang, the Canton war

Lewis and Others Are
Summoned for Trial


I IMMEDIATE splitting Of the
4 American Federation of Labor
into two rival groups was averted
by the action of the Federation's
executive council in voting to bring
to trial on August 8, the union
leaders led by John L. Lewis on
charges of dual unionism." It
had been reported earlier that the
council had voted to suspend the
IL unions grouped as the Commit
tee for Industrial Unionization.
The councils action was looked
upon as a peace move in the crisis
that threatens open warfare in the
labor movement. It was precipi-
tated by the drive to organize $780,
600 workers in the steel industry
into one big industrial union by
John L. Lewis, president of the
United Mine Workers and his fol-
lowers. ..-...
The charges against the Lewis
group include competition as a
rival organization with the A. F.
of L.; fomenting an insurrection
within the Federation; violation of
contracts they have entered into
with the Federation when granted
their charters.

Olympic Torch Started
to Berlin Games

IN OLYMPIA, Greece, scene of
L the first Olympic games, torch
was lighted by the rays of the sun
and a Greek runner seized it and
started it on a 12-day relay to the
sports field in Berlin where the
Olympic flame is to be lighted on
August J.. Five thousand distin-
guished persons were selected to
carry the torch, these including
King Boris of Bulgaria, King Pc
ter of Jugoslavia, and long list
of princes, statesmen and SPORTS
men. On the last leg it was to
be borne by S. Loues of Greece,
winner Of the marathon in the
games of 1896. A hundred thou
sand Hitler youths will accompany
Loues in a triurnphal parade to
the stadium.
Five thousand torches to carry
the flame were donated by the
Krupp works, so each of the bear
ers will retain one as a souvenir.

Nazi DEGREES IN Danzig
Crush Opposition
T Unless the protests Of Poland
~ are effective, all opposition to
Nazi power in the Free City of
Danzig is due to be crushed. DR..
Arthur Karl Greiser, president of
the Danzig senate, which is con-
trolled by Nazis, has issued adj
ministrative DEGREES ordering:
/. Dissolution of any organization
whose members, with knowledge of
its executive board, spreads news
"endangering the state interest"
2. Prohibition of review by the
courts of police measures of po-
litical nature, including those
aimed at the right of assembly,
the press, and free speech.
3. Prohibition of Jewish ritual
slaughtering for food purposes.
4. Imposition of three month pro-
tective custody on persons declared
to be "endangering the public
peace"
Thus the city's constitution is
virtually set aside, and the Poles
especially, having extensive eco
nomic interests there. are indig-
nant.

L. p. Ayers Predicts Big
Business Improvement

BUSINESS Improvement
DREDICTING 1886 will be the best
business year since 1880 and
possibly since 1922" Colonel Leon
;rd P. Ayers, economist of Cleve-
land, declared that statistics on all
important business had shown SUBJ
stantial and 'healthy increase"
since the first of this year. Strikes,
drouth and other difficulties have
not affected increases in employ
ment, markets and security ex-
changes, the economist said.
"More steel has been produced in
the first half of 1886 than in all
1882" he pointed out. "a major
factor in the increased steadiness
of business has been well sustained
employment among the factory
workers making durable goods.
Workers in the durable goods fac
tories suffer most from lay-offs and
shut-downs, but such has not been
the case in the first half of this
year and of last year"

ticket.
Lemke himself appeared before
the convention before it adjourned
and made a speech in which he
pledged himself to "stand four
square behind the old age pension
movement and denounced the
present administration as nation

ed the first statement, but other
wise were rather apathetic toward

WASHINGTON, Nov. II. = Sunk deep in Secretary Wallace's book, Whose Constitution, is a sugges- ton for a new kind of commission. It's not planning commission but a warning commission, equipped to caution against bad trends in social and economic legislation and to sug- gest right courses.
 Coming from Secretary Wallace, currently considered one of Presi- dent Roosevelt's closest advisers, the suggestion could be expected to run athwart of much partisan criticism if it were not that the idea had it's inception long before Wallace. Moreover, the idea already has gained a toe-hold.s
