If you're tired of crossword puz-
zles, here's a railroad riddle from
G. w. Adams, local agent for the
Southern Pacific Company.
How can Southern Pacific's
westbound Californian, popular
economy train On the Chicago-Los
Angeles run, arrive in Yuma, Ari-
zona, today and leave yesterday?
Well, it's because Yuma is the
beginning and end of time zone,
which makes it necessary for west
bound travellers to set back their
watches an hour at that point.
That being the case, it so hap
pens that the Californian rolls in
to Yuma at 1926 a. M, Mountain
Time, on Sunday, says; stops Is
minutes, and departs at 1850 p.
m. Pacific Time, Saturday!

Washington Wise
And Otherwise

A week without something more
than a touch of presidential
politics, as far as Washington is
concerned, is time misspent. Paul
McNutt, for a while considered to
be the fair haired boy, now is view
ed by party tops as definitely
skidding and out of the big pic
ture. He faces a situation which
charming looks will not overcome,
& past record of performance
which has labor in his hair. Garner
is considered a rapidly growing
menace to the New Deal boys. To
stop aim is their problem. Post
master General Farley is expected
to announce soon for the Demo
cratic presidential nomination. But
the willy Jim just keeps smiling
along. His intentions are as
III SIcl IOuS do IuO IlcoiuChI o.
Secretary Of Agriculture Wallace,
still hopeful, is under such fire in
the Cabinet, among his Depart
ment heads and from the field
that he may end up by being a yes
man for the real candidate. Roose-
yelt remains the mystery. T h lie
wiseacres say that unless the
situation arises where he can be a
"war" president, he will retire and
name his candidate to succeed
him. Wheeler is pushing his own
bid for recognition and Is putting
wrinkles of care in the brows of
the third term advocates.
The sad part of the story Is the
dropping head of the Grand Old
Party elephant. The woods are
filled with candidates. Dewey is in
earnest. Vandenberg has gone a
little stale. Taft Is serious in his
own mind. Bridges is out campaig-
ing. Gannett has announced and
fusters the Dewey groups. But a
littEd inside secret among the
party tops (not the candidates) has
seeped out. They have held up
their hands befor a gun has been
pulled on them. They are reported
feeling that there is no chance
to win so they don't care who gets
the party nomination and expect
to spend all Or most of their
money in congressional and state
elections. It's a curious and far
from brave leadership. A fair siz-
ed part row is brewing over this
headquarters attitude.
