liberty LEAGUE is n
EXPERTLY MANAGED
Jouett Shouse Brains of Or
ganization as Much as
Amy One in 1t.
BY CHARLES p. STEWART

Washington, Jan. 11-WhateVer else
one NAV think of the American Lib
erty League, in all fairness it must
be admitted that it is well managed.
It's jabs at the New Deal are far
more effective than the Republican
national committees. In fact, the
administration can and does afford
virtually to ignore the G.. 0. P.'s of
fetal organization. It's thrusts don't
hurt any. But every time the league
makes a pass at it, it hOllers.
For one thing, the Republican COM
mittee is partisan. It's every anti
New Deal utterance is discounted, be-
cause it outspokenly is on the anti
administration side of the Republican,
Democratic fence. 1t generally is re-
cognized that it's job is to find fault.
not necessarily justifiably. Besides.
it's fault finding is not overly pungent.
The Liberty league calls itself non
partisan. And why shouldn't it? It
has some Republican backing, GER
tainly. Also enlisted under it's ban
ner, however, are John w. Davis, who
ran for president on the Democratic
ticket in 1924; AL Smith, who ran for
president on the same ticket in 1928;
John j. Raskob, who was Democratic
national chairman for four years;
Joett Shouse, who did more than any
other single individual to Smear"
Hoover during the depression years
preceding the 1882 election. More
over, the leagues publicity is dandy.
HE CAN SPREAD IT!
Jouett Shouse!
One must hand it to that chap as
wonder at political propaganda.
He took over the direction of Demo-
cratic destinies (nominally as an I'M
derling of Chairman Raskob, bust
really as boss of the whole OUTFIT at a
juncture when many politicians be-
lieved the party was on the verge Of
disintegration, and simply wrecked
the opposition with his press agentry
by the 1882 campaign.
True, he did it for AL Smith, and
Franklin d. Roosevelt reapcd the
benefit, but the press agentry was
Shouse's.
Charley Nicholson got the credit for
this publicity, but Charley's propa-
ganda hasn't been so hot, on the de-
tensive, as propaganda man for the
Democratic committee, since he hasn't
had Shouse as what perhaps he was
before-his inspiration. On the OBJ
posite hand, Bill Murphy operating
for the league under Jouett's direc-
ton, has had it all over Charley.
The conclusion is hard to escape,
that ShouSe, rather than either Mich
elson or Murphy, is the wonder work
ing propagandist

SAYS GOOD SIRE is
WELL WORTH SAVING

College Station, Raleigh, Jan. H.
A good herd sire is worth saving,
A high grade sire represents more
than SO percent of the future dairy
herd said John A. Arey. extension
dairy specialist at State College.
After a bull has demonstrated his
ability to- transmit good type and
high productivity to his daughters, he
should be Kept in service as long as
possible.
Yet many herdsmen send to the
butcher young bulls which have not
reached their prime, just because the
animals have developed ugly DISPOSE
tons.
This means that another bull must
be secured for the herd often a Young
bull whose value has not been proven
possibly an animal distinctly inferior
to the former sire. Arey declared.

did not hear the remarks of the
experts and fans, or if he did he
paid no attention to them
Starting on September IL, 1881,
he finished out the season for the
Pirates and then showed up bright
and early with his big glove in the
spring to resume where he left off
the preceding fall. He did not miss
a game in 1882, nor did he fail OF
appear in the lineup in any game
