SAY UNIFORM

Marriage And Divorce

By NED RUSSELL

CLEVELAND, July %. (UP).
The problem Of enacting uniform

probably will be 100 years before
anything definite is achieved, two
experts on the problem said last

The experts were William II.

had crept into the convention
method Of nominating candidates,
North Carolina adopted the phi
mary method. Now the primary
method has become SO rotten that
there is Il strong demand to re
turn to the convention method.
The way-and the only way
to have decency in politics is for
the people themselves to adopt
and maintain an attitude OF alb
solute intolerance toward poIltl-
cal rascality.
No law can ever be passed
which will take the place Of char
actcr and integrity. Every state
now has more laws than it needs
SO many that not even the
smartcst lawyer can keep up with
them.
If North Carolina will put its
political crooks in jail every time
they stick up their heads, it will
not matter what kind of nOmmat-
ing machinery is used. At the
present time it is as hard to get
an election thief punished i'll
North Carolina as it would be to
get Il colOrcd man elected to the
governorShip. The thing just isn't
done.

100 PERCENTER

From the Democratic platform of 1882: 1--WE
favor maintenance of the national credit by fed
eral budget annually balanced on the basis OF ac-
curate executive estimates within revenues raised
by system of taxation levied on the principle OF
ability to pay In a campaign speech in 1892 Mr.
Roosevelt said: 81 am for this platform 100 per
cent" In no year since he was elected has the
budget been baanced in the last year the tax col
lections were next to the highest in the country's
peace-tme history and the president estimates the
deficit for the fiscal year to end July 80, 1889,
about four thousand million dollars-Charleston

BLESSINGS IN DISGUISE

We sincerely hope that Raymond C. Maxwell
secretary to the State Board of Eelections is cor
rect in his opinion that this years series of cleo
ton fraud rows throughout North Carolina are
really blessings in Disguise in that they will result
in definite corrective action by the next general
assembly.
The blazing aftermaths of contest and contro-
versy will at least, center attention on the more
obviously needed reforms, particularly abuses of
the absentee ballot and the hopeless mess in which
so many registration books have been found.
As MIR. Maxwell pointedly commented: 1.-THE
whole series of controversies this year could have
been avoided if the 1887 legislature had needed
tho advice of Major l.. P. McLendon, then chair
man of the board, by providing more stringent
restrictions around absentee voting."-Hickory
Record.

PRETEXT OF SYMPATHY

The wage and hour bill is just another attempt
to string the wage Garner along with the admins
traton on the pretext of sympathy. The bill does
not do for the wage Garner the all essential thing,
furnish jobs Jobs will come when industry starts.
Industry will start when money is invested. Money
will be invested when confidence in the government
business policy is restored
The attempt to legislate wages and hours when
there are no jobs is another new deal joke. The
thing we fear will happen is that actual hun
ger and want will be the cruel master to put the
idle back to work.
That is not pleasant to contemplate; and it will
be long road back to purchasing power from
that state and station.-Exchange.

Washington, but Nate kept it

Druxman began his promoting
career when he joined the Seattle
lodge of ElkS in 1918. He had just
turned 81. The lodge named him
on committee to promote boxing
AS a youngster, Druxman hus-
tied peanuts, pop corn, and hot
dogs at the old Seattle baseball
park. He went to work selling
tobacco and in few years
worked himself into the position
of chief salesman for his firm.
DRUXMAN had bright future
- in baseball. He was sought
by Pacific Coast League clubs OF
two decades ago, but his parents
and friends advised him against
a professional athletic career.
A promoters word turned him
from the trail of fighting. When

BARKING UP WRONG TREE
by HARRY GRAYSON
Sports Editor, NEA Service

MATE DRUXMAN is celebrating
" his 25th year as a promoter
in Seattle with his greatest
achievement-the world middle
weight championship fight be-
tween Freddie Steele and Al
Hostak, July 26.
Druxman, Tex Richard of the
Pacific northwest, drew $500 in
his first attempt at matching nose
knockers a quarter of g century
ago. Indications were that he
would play to a 100000 gate with
the neighborhood quarrel between
Steele, the champion, and HoStak,
a 22-year-old yoGngster of sub
urban Seattle.
Steele was guaranteed 100000,
with a privilege of 40 per cent.
Druxman's previous high gate
was $4,000. Steele and Eddie
Babe Risko enticed that through
the turnstiles in July, 1896, when
the Tacoma Taper took over the
throne room. Druxman has drawn
numerous $4,000 and $4,000
houses in late years, usually with
Steele the main attraction. He
made Seattle the far vests fore
most pugilistic center put il
ahead of Los Angeles and Sar
Francisco in that respect.
NOV that he has realized his
" dream of a 100000 show in
Seattle, Druxmans ambition is
to find a heavyweight in the
mammoth forests Of the Pacific
northwest and send him against
Joe Louis, or whoever the cham
pion happens to be, in the Puge'
Sound country.
Druxman made financial sue

A LITTLE TOTALITARIAN TALE OF
EFFICIENCY
(By BRUCE CATION

The big brag of the tOtalltarlan state Is
that it is efficient. 1t may be a bit repres-
siye and hard to live with, but it Gets
Things Done; SlipShod old Democracy just
muddles along, falling over it's. own feet
and tanning itself to death with the breeze
Of it's waste motions.
Okay. Lets look, as they say, at the
record.
Until recently the New York Times
maintained it's central European bureau in
Vienna The AnschuSS made it necessary
for the bureau to be moved to Prague. The
bureau consisted of four small rooms; the
stuff to be moved included small amount
of furniture, few typewriterS, and some
files. The Times people blithely notified
the authorities, called the movers, and pre-
pared to get going.
At this point German efficiency stepped
m-with the result that it took two mortal
months TO get one VanlOad Of possessions
moved from Vienna to Prague.
First of all the authorities had to be
sure that the proper taxes were paid. In
spectors of high and low degree came to
call lnnumerable documents had to be
filled out books had to be examined, APP
pealS taken, signatures of various func-
tionaries obtained. All of this took three
weeks.
Then the efficient Teutons had to go
over all of the things that were to be
moved-and go over them they did, with
a super-efficient fine-toOth comb. Every
file that was being taken out had to be
opened and examined thoroughly. Every
book was opened and examined, page by
page, to make sure that no banknotes or
other contraband were being taken out of
the country. Envelopes of newspaper clip
pings were scrutinized down to the last
typographical error. Boxes of empty en-
velopes We're opened so that each envelope
could be peered into.
The inspectors had their most fun with
l20 bound volumes of the Times. These
had to get close scrutiny, like everything
else; an diff you have ever seen bound
volume of daily paper, you can imagine
how long it took to go through those 100
volumes But the job was done, regard
less; and all the furniture was examined
for concealed hiding places.
By the time all this was done, the tax
permits previously obtained had expired.
These had to be renewed, which meant
more delay. The the movers had to be
rounded up. The loaded van had to be
sealed; loaded, it had to proceed at a
snailS pace, while six inspectors walked
alongside, like pallbearers, to make sure
that no one added to or subtracted from
the precious load
So, what with one thing and another,
the Times people got moved - in two
months.
All very efficient, certainly; but efficient
for what? Efficient in the sense that Ger
man officialdom knows, to the last paper
clip, exactly what the Times people took
out of Vienna; staggeringly, unbelievabiy
inefficient and bunglesome from every
other viewpoint.
It's less of strain on the nerves to mud
die through with slipshOd old Miss Democ-
racy-don't you think?
