New Youth nor Aiken of Yer
Movement mont clamors for
St;rs World new young blood
in the Republican
party. The also young Governor
Barrows of Maine quickly indorses
this demand for "new faces, ambi-
tons and ideals" And in England
a young Jewish statesman brings a
call for the stretcher-bearers in the
stuffy old army club, as, with youth
full zest, he rocks the foundations
of empire-again under the banner
of youth.
When Leslie Hore-Beisha, war
secretary, passed over fifty elderly
generals to up the younger and more
vigorous Viscount Gort to the high
command, he incurred sharp criti-
cism and challenge in parliament
and loosed vast amount of tongue
wagging all through conservative
England.
His army shake-up, in the inter-
est of "new blood" was the most
drastic of modern times and has be-
come highly personalized around
the dynamic figure of the young war
secretary.
They don't object to his being Jew
ish. They have had too many bril-
liant Readings, Sassoons, Disraelis,
and Samuels in their government to
worry about that. What disturbs
them is the fact that Mr.. Hore-
Belisha is a bit of gate-crasher,
an added starter from scratch with
no powerful alliances or backing.
He was a newspaper man after
he left Oxford with his M. A. degree,

Newspapers agenarians in the
clubs whisper to
each other, ''Nulla dies sine Inca"
mot a day without line of pub
licity." This writer has no famil-
iarity with London clubs, but he is
told that a snappy Latin gag line
runs through them like a prairie
fire.
At the age of twenty -eight, Hore-
Belisha was elected to parliament
as a Liberal. He was taunted for
his youth and that started him
badgering the graybeards, and he
has been at it ever since. At thirty
one, he gained much kudos by
scheming way to let the Liberals
into the new national government.
When he was thirty-four, he became
parliamentary secretary to the
board of trade, and, at thirty-five,
financial secretary of the treasury.

searching studies on comparative
emotional sensitivity of blondes,
brunettes and red-heads. He invent
ed the sphygmomanometer, or lie
detector, based on blood pressure
variants.
He was teacher at Radcliffe
college, but romped through law
school, practiced law, stirred in
dash of psychology with the Black
stone and became professor of legal
psychology at the American univer-
sity at Washington. From 1926
to 1929, he was lecturer on psychol-
ogy at Columbia university.
He is likely to bob up any time
with some new provocative idea,
and he never calls his shots.
