ES ai ce (Official City, State and County Newspaper) | : Literary Fireworks Sinclair Lewis, in refusing the Pulitzer prize for the most typical American novel, indulges in some verbal pyrotechnics. Through declining the $1,000 prize for his novel, Arrowsmith, he has secured many times that amount in page one, top of the col- umn free advertising. He took occasion also to dep- recate the patronage of the arts and sciences by | men of wealth through such outstanding endow ments as the Pulitzer and Nobel prizes. It is hard to conceive that these prizes could in any way subsidize an artist or any genius, in fact, who wishes above all to secure a genuine success. The acquisition of a prize is merely Le refusal to accept is a strained effort to be different and to focus attention on himself. One cannot estimate the treasures of art, science and literature from which, doubtless, Lewis has drawn inspiration lost to posterity had not kitid and generous patrons through money and_ encourage- ment made them possible. The history of literature and art is filled with the names of many patrons whose interest and financial aid helped to enrich the great stores of knowledge in the various fields of endeavor. From the day that genius first began to mark on seroll or tablet of stone, poem, fiction or"philosophy, some worthy patron kept the wolf from the door, the body of the artist nourished and the spirit enthused. Lewis is merely fortunate that the $1,000 of Pulitzer money meant nothing in his young life because of 4 healthy royalties and a well advertised name. Horace and Vergil without the patron Maecenas would not have written as well. The patricians who fostered art in Florence, the churchmen of the mid- dle ages who kindled the fires of genius and kept safe from the vandals of the north priceless treas- ures of pen and brush were the Nobels and Pulitzers of their day, and they nourished greater geniuses, too. The patronage of art and literature by men of wealth is not a devitalizing force. Lewis’ argu- ments against the aéceptance of such honoraria are refuted by history, both ancient and modern. His repudiation of the Pulitzer prize is illogical and assinine, Vinegar and the Voters Applesauce is one of the oldest po salves known to civilization. Vinegar distinctly is not. You can catch a million voters with a few pounds of taffy, but you'll catch only abuse if you go sour on the party. it Down in New York a woman named Mrs. Henry Moscowitz has learned well the age-old rule that vinegar never catches voters. The application of “that rule has carried her pretty far up into politics She’s sitting now in the coun of the prime po- tentate cf New York state politics, Mr. Smith him- self. Mrs. Moscowitz made a little speech lately to a crowd of men and women. She lighted a fuse lead- ing to a very big bomb when she said that women in politics were not the intellectual equals of men. The men applauded. Lots of nice, fat, juicy votes. But how about the women? Not much taffy for them, eh? Oh, wait. Mrs. Moscowitz isn’t one to send the ladies home down in the mouth. After glorifying the male intellectuality, Mrs. Moscowitz swung easily over to the glories of feminine int tion. And did the ladies like that? Did they? Oh, boy! It was the nicest party! We wish Mrs. Jacob Baur of Chicago could bum around for a while with Mrs. Moscowitz. Mrs. Baur, you know, ran for ¢ongyess recently and was de- feated. Afjer her defeat, she placed the women of th® world in the nincompoop class for not having the good sense to vote for her.

The Middle West Looks at Washington (Chicago Tribune) There is rapidly developing in the middle west 2 distinct sectiofial consciousness. Nowhere is the citizen more American; nowhere is there a richer American heritage. But your middle westerner is learning that he belongs to a particular ségment of America. Though this consciousness is strongest} among the farmers, the common feeling transcends social, racial, occupational, and political lines of di- vision. The middle west has been informed that it is “the middle west.” It used to receive that informa- tion in a spirit resembling humility. Today's tend- ency is to welcome the news and cast back with pride, “We certainly are the middle west, and we'll fight it out on that line if it takes until 1928—or "32." It has still to be demonstrated whether this middle western spirit is good for the country as a whole, | for the middle west itself, or for the rest of the country. Whether it is good or not, its present | Phase is inevitable. Many causes have contributed to bring the situation about. The case of the middle west waterway system is an example. It is a fact of common knowledge that the development of the lakes-to-gulf waterway would ibe of tremendous benefit to the middle west. Nor | name’s ill this waterway injure the prosperity of the east, | There is business enough for} nor of the far west. l every one. There is work enough to keep railroa: highway transport, and waterways more than bu: In the face of the middle western demand for water. The lake level; i | ways there has arisen a hue and cry. issue and the diversion of water through the Chi- cago sanitary canal were seized upon by frantic op- Ponents as likely herrings to be drawn across the main trail. Washington has made its promises, but | iso far they have remained promises. The middle west is still denied its waterway. ; A great part of the prosperity of the middle west | |—not to menticn that of the country as a whole— | | depends upon the middle western farmer. A coun- ; jtry, in the final analysis, can be no more prosperous | than its producing class. A prosperity which leave. jthe farmer poor_is not prosperity, but inflation. | {There have been vague indications—an adverse for- } ‘eign trade balance, for example—that this may be | ‘the case with this country. Continued warnings | ‘from the White House and treasury department | “Premier Mussolini is a great man, but as for you, | against over-expenditure lend the indications added | didn’t have a | weight. The principal way in which such a possible lerisis can be forestalled is to remedy the farmer's troubles. It is answered that the farmer does not know what he wants. He did not a year ago. He seems to know very definitely just now. He want: to be placed on an equal footing with the industrialis j and the urban worker.

When this company first started, Frank A. Seiberling, its founder, who had manufactured more than 40 mil- lion tires, announced a policy of building the best tire he knew how and selling it at a fair price. That policy has never -been deviated from and today the Seiberling All-Tread is better than ever. - “There will be no compromises with quality and that is why our sales o Seiberling tires are increasing right along.” Tribune want Flapper Fanny Says: re eS
