This action is the measure of the extremity the polygot committee faces. Enough democrats, however, should refrain from following the suggestion of the Committee of Forty- five. so, that party identity. will not be lost completely. - The plan of théI’’V. A. to register democrats a8 republicans probably will be pushed vigorously. Apparently there is a well defined understand-| ing, if theJ. V. A. leaders can have their way, to deliver the United States senatorship to a demo- crat in exchange for the state machine. The I. WA! Iéaders ‘cannot hold the democrats in line without promising them. something. Altruism in practical politics is an unknown factor. Deals usually are on‘a quid. pro quod basis. If the democrats scratch the I. V. A, backs in the republican primaries, the I. V. ‘A. must] scratch the democratic backs in the fall election. But will not a real contest in the democratic primary put this deal out of “kilter” just as the plan to legalize such a fusion at the recall was exploded by democrats and republicans who still) want to function along party lines in. the prima- ries? On with the dance, the bi-partisan plot thickens! ‘TALKING MOVIES Talking movies, a new invention with enormous possibilities, have just been successfully demon- strated in Chicago. By this invention, the,silent screen, doses its sil ence. You, out in the audience, watel ‘the pictu and hear the actors’ voices. and all other sounds, the same as if you were actually seeing and hear. ing the thing occur in real'life. The process is different’ from the: compbination of phonograph and movie film. tried: ol t ‘by: E. ‘ Albee in Keith vaudeville some years ago: ~ This latest talking movie is an application: of the wireless phone. The movie is produced in the studio, as usual.- Then the films are sent out to movie theaters, where wireless phones and automatic moving pic- ture machines are synchronized—that is,.the out-| fits in each theater start at the same time and | run at the same speed, regulated from the movie} studio. _ The film has been ade.

The inventor, Harry J. Powers, Jr., has kept his; radio talking pictures: secret, pending patents. | Shortly, however, they will be tried out on the} public. Audiences quently comment that some of the great actors lose part of their effectiveness | on the picture screen because their greatest his- tricnic ability—vocal genius—cannot. be brought | into play. A successful radio talking movie would eliminate this handicap. | In your day, you have seen the wireless and the movie develop from rather laughable laboratory | experiments to practical devices, widely used andj} with tremendous possibilities. The movies soon,will have a new Siamese Twin —the “‘speakies.” It is not straining the imagination to picture a day when moving pictures themselves wil] be ‘broadcasted into homes by wireless, the same as a phonograph now can be cabled across the ocean. This is scientific accomplishment—the most important news of the Twentieth Century. RAILROAD LOSSES But no one can deny that high prices, in the minds of a period of generally falling prices, strangle business, can be spent for transportation. Freight charges regulate volume of traffic. a SQUEEZER In one year the 12 federal reserve banks have reduced their commercial loans from $1,224,533,- 000 to $362,662,000. The reduetion is more than two-thirds. There seems little human interest in these cold statistics. tragedy-melodrama of our generation—the story ‘lof deflation, with its hurricane of desperation, fear, loss, despair and necessity. HOW FAR DID YOU TRAVEL? How many miles-did you travel on railroads ‘ast year? The average was 355 miles for each American. That was 90 miles less than the year before. You explain it by high passenger rates? There were other causes. The causes really are mani- festations of the tendency of people to cling closer to home during hard times. When money is flush, off and over the hills. ‘COPIED A boat, made to go ‘by a huge propeller that looks and wiggles like the tail of a fish, is invent- ed by J. L.. Jones, of Medford, Mass. All of man’s basic inventions existed in prin- ciple in nature before he copied them. Spider that burrows in the ground has a hinged door over tunnel leading to its heme. The car-drum was the original wireless receiver. The fly and bird are the best, airplanes, Nature is a great tree, man merely a. picker of its fruit. INSTALLMENTS , Ninety-five out of each 100 phonographs are sold on the installment plan, according to a check- up by the National Retail Dry Goods assorle; tion. Ninety per cent of the installment-plan hayes pay in full. Ten per cent have their machines taken away by the collector. There’s a revelation in credit. Only one in 10 buyers bites off more than he can chew, though some of the others find the final installments like pulling teeth. ‘ ae LI NOES oe COMMON PEOPLE INC. Boston gives ‘birth to an organization’ called The Comrnon People, Incorporated. As you probably suspect, the, purpose of this joutfit is uplifting, investigating, reporting, ad- vising and working for “evolving better political and civic betterment for that class of people {known as the Common People.” | This adds another to the confusing number. of rings the people are urged to watch in the mammoth political circus. the most talk. Most of these organizations of the ccizmon peo- \ple are like the three famous tailors who solemn- ly drew up the document starting, “We, the people iof England.” EDITORIAL REVIEW column may or may not Comments reproduced int They are presented here hi express the opinion of The Tribune. which are snciog discussed in the press of the day. WOMAN’S FIRST WORD. Mrs. Nels P. Radick, wife of a Minnesota farm- ‘er, intends to tell the house committee on agricul- ture. something about the lot of the farmer’s si- lert*partner. She speaks, she’ says, for 6,000,000 women of the Middle West who seek favorable \action on the Ladd-Sinclair bill for the stabiliza- ition of the values and prices of farm prodicts. merale:in-farm life that, has accompanied the de- |\flation in farm prices. She will recount the neces< sity for shocking corn herself and cultivating and “choring”, to help her husband make both ends meet. She will show that children who should be . lin school have been drafted in the fight for ex- istence, that her own 12-year-old boy has to work two hours before he gets away to school, that cther less fortunate youngsters are dulled and aged before their time by excessive work in child- hood. She asserts that the distraction of parents ing and jazz parties among their children. Her story will not be new nor will the condition she describes apply exclusively*to farm’ people. Millions of men not farmers have been out of work | in the last year. They have wives ‘and children and this same problem of keeping alive. Their boys have been forced into toiling for bread be- fore their day. The influence of the joy ride and jazz is perhaps more sinister in cities than on the farm. women are speaking through her.
