Persons far-removed from Wash- ton find it difficult to estimate 1¢ importance or significance of var- us actions or events. They do not t Ave the correllative information scessary to an accurate reading be- ween the lines. i It is interesting, therefore, to note } ae opinions and reactions of Byron rice, head of the Washington Bu- eau of the Associated Press and, as lich, one of the best-informed men - the national capital. Here ts the way he estimates the ‘ositions and attitudes of the lead- ig figures in the presidential picture. .s Seems to be an honest appraisal. Herbert Hoover “He has not been happy in the ‘presidency. Rightly or wrongly, popular opinion has linked his >name with evil fortunes. If he ‘consulted private inclination ‘alone, he probably would retire from politics. : “He has no thought, however, of doing so. He wants to see a vindication of his policies. His ‘party organization, sharing that desire, is preparing to renominate him all but unanimously. The party sees a hope that brighter days and democratic dissension will mean a republican victory. John N. Garner “As the first democratic house “ene since the great war, he is ping with extraordinary cau- tion a program which he hopes will provide an appealing party Platform. “It is based on cooperation in the reconstruction measures, a paring of appropriations, a re- writing of the Hoover tax plan, and an obviously restrained but Persistent attack on the adminis- tration. “Texas probably will vote for him for the presidential nomina- tion. He is not seriously interested that though he might listen f talk of the vice-presidency. it Alfred E. Smith *\ _“He remembers that no other | democrat ever polled so many .. votes for president. He sees * bright democratic prospects this ‘} year, and is not convinced, de- | spite the advice of former sup- porters, that his strength in the Party has diminished greatly. “He will be in the running for the nomination, at least until he has tried out for himself this + question of his popularity. Hiram W. Johnson “Lacking financial support, for which he had hoped, he is inclin- ing toward a decision not to try to capitalize the anti-Hoover sen- timent among republicans, “He thinks he could capture more than a handful of mary states, but would be left far from a nomination. Franklin D. Roosevelt “Pledges of democratic support stagnation. The new credit facilities now made available by the govern- ment should go a long way toward re- storing normal conditions in business. Of course, the job can’t be done overnight, and it would be foolish to look for a return of prosperity by next month. But there isa pretty gen- eral belief that an extremely import- ant step forward has been taken, and that from now on a slow but steady upward tendency will be evident. Memories in Keepsakes Buried treasure is usually a cache of gold, silver or precious stones. But excavators who were preparing a site for a new art museum in Portland, Ore., the other day turned up treasure trove of a different kind—some mouldy old chests that had been bur- ied 50 years ago by members of a high school graduating class beneath a tree that the graduates had planted. ‘When the chests were opened, a re- vealing light was thrown on the kind of things, valueless in themselves, that people can prize—especially young People. There were, for instance, a little blue vase, a tiny cup and saucer, aj little locket containing a lock of someone's brown hair, a small model of the ship Constitution, a marble, a; miniature horseshoe, a handful of old | coins, a newspaper of the year 1882— and so on, through a long list of little trinkets each one of which had its own significance, its own value, when the chest was buried 50 years ago. It isn’t hard to imagine just how gladly the people who buried those things would reclaim them now. Af- ter half a century the commonest ob- ject can take on deep meaning. That locket with its wisp of hair, for in- stance; what gawky high school lad, prizing his keepsake from the world’s sweetest girl, put it there? And where is he now? Did he marry her—or did each forget the other before two more years had passed? Most of us, probably, have a secret store of odds and ends of that kind, things that would look very odd and grotesque, if anyone else saw them, but that we ourselves cherish deeply. ‘There is usually a faded dance pro- gram or two, a sheaf of crumbling snapshots—containing, always, pic- tures of one or two people whose very names we have forgotten—an oddly- colored pebble that commemorates some summer day's stroll along a lake, some yellowed theater stubs; and to no one but ourselves would the collection mean anything. But each of us has to fight his own battle with time, which devours youth and hope; and with our oddments of keepsakes—like those unearthed in Oregon—we keep old memories alive. i Question of Leniency ‘What should be done to a prisoner who saves the life of the officer who arrested him? This unusual question has arisen in the province of Quebec, where five lumberm:-n were arrested by two de- tectives for trying to hang a boss they didn't like. The detectives marched their prisoners off to jail, and led them across a frozen river. Halfway over the river the ice brake and the two detectives went into the water. Instead of leaving them there, the prisoners pulled them out—and then meekly accompanied them the rest of the way to jail. Whether or not this will induce the court to be lenient with them is not yet apparent. The ordinary man will Probably think that it ought to, at any rate.

Submarine Disasters (New York Times) Twenty submarines have foundered since 1904, not counting those sunk in war. None disappeared more mys- terlously than the M-2. She was seen to slip stern first below the waves. After that—silence. No men equipped with breathing masks floated to the surface, as a few did from the Pose- idon, lost in the Yellow sea. No one hammered in despair against plating, knowing that eager ears at sensitive virtually sweeping the west and nee give him confidence he can microphones above would hear. Is inventive ingenuity helpless in the face of these frequent disasters? When our 8-4 sank with all on board after a collision off Cape Cod in 1927 @ submarine board of civilian scien- tists and naval experts was appoint ed. The country had been so deeply stirred that 8,000 letters dealing with nearly 5,000 life-preserving and sal- vage devices were received. Marking buoys to facilitate communication, escape compartments, lifting appa- ratus, releasable safety weights, tele- scoping rescue tubes, diving bells, hose connections, drilling machines, rings and eyes on hulls to simplify grappling, modified diving suits—the inventors thought of everything. And the result? Our navy ordered 7,700 breathing masks or “lungs” developed by Lieutenant Momsen after a study of similar German inventions and of New York, Feb. among other things, is a fur center.

It began with a few pelts and it's wound up with half-off sales on the “Avenoo.” Tourists, wandering through the dizzy trails of the Wall Street zone, are reminded of this by a tablet at- tached to a lower Broadway building. To be sure, many of them are so busy breaking their necks trying to see the canyon tops that they miss the marker. But there it is—and it announces the location of the first building in the big town.
