A peculiar fact about this political lisease is that those who are afflicted oy it take pride in the fact and insist ppa making it known to the world. P We need go no farther than our own | State campaign. ti Addressing Burleigh county I. V. A.’s Necently, Governor George F. Shafer nnounced that he would, in due time, genswer all charges that have been or may be levelled against his adminis- “tration, not because they deserve rec- ‘ognition but merely in order that the electorate might know that every of- | ficial act of his redounded to the| Jeredit of North Dakota and the bene- it of its people. One need not go into details to ‘demonstrate the pitfall into which this political infirmity has led the state's chief executive. It is sufficient to remark that, if this is true, it is the first case of human perfection record- ed in many, many years. Business and professional men and others of marked talent and ability claim no such 100 per cent average. ‘Thomas A. Edison, whose inventions added 15 billion dollars to the wealth jof the nation, confessed many times that he had found certain of his ideas _ erroneous and was compelled to try ; again. One wonders if Edison's brain was, after all, so much inferior to that of our political officeholders or whether he had a more pronoynced | trait of mental honesty. In business and other pursuits, one ‘frequently hears distinguished men admit that they may have been slight- ly in error on certain occasions.

Their sole advantage is that they have more contacts and more ex- perience in putting together the jix- | aw puzzle which politics always of- fers. It would seem, however, that they are being conservative in this year when anything can happen, politic- The North Dakota correspondent for the Washington newspaper felt safe in intimating there is a Demo- cratic trend in this state. Why shouldn't he after that surprising 84,- 000 votes in the Democratic presi- dential primary in March? On the whole, it would seem the president is getting few breaks and that he will face particular difficulty in the west, since the trend west of the Mississippi river seems to be against him. With his friends running to cover, it would seem that Hoover is being left out in the storm to weather the po- litical winds alone—if he can. Even his publicity stunts are having a bad back-lash. A few days ago some newspapers made much of the journey from De- troit to Washington of Irene, Bernice and Clifford Feagan who went to ask the president's help in getting their father out of jail. The president met them cordially at the White House and promised to use his good offices in seeing that the quality of mercy oper- ated for the Feagan family. The next day, Papa Feagan was re- leased from durance vile and the president appeared in the kindly light so necessary for a public man if he would get the sentimental vote. And then came the denoyement which should make the president take his political stage manager out in the White House woodshed. From Minneapolis came word that Police Chief W. J. Mechan had asked Feagan's arrest for an alleged embez- zlement there in 1931. “It was nice that the story came out in the newspapers,” Chief Meehan said, “I've been looking for Feagan for several months and this is the first time I've had a line on him.” And that leaves Mr, Hoover holding the sack, so to speak.

When Mayor “Jimmy” Walker was on the griddle before the Seabury in- vestigating committee, he was contin- ually cheered by the crowd which had gathered to see the show. The en- thusiasm for the mayor was marked, the intention being, of course, to prove that Seabury was persecuting this notable maker of profitable friendships. Later, when Walker left the stand, women in the crowd pelted him with roses, It may be impolite to wonder just how the roses happened to be handy when Walker's feminine admirers be- came suddenly enthused, but the fact remains they were there. As far as it went the demonstration ‘clicked.’ In the case of the Detroit fiasco, however, Hoover's roses turned out to be cabbages. | Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the | trend of thought by other editors. ‘They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies. Nominating Without Rhetoric (New York Times) The Californian who has been chos- en to place President Hoover in nom- ination at Chicago announces that he will do it without any frills. He is known as “plain Joe Scott,” and pro- Poses to offer nothing but “common sense” to “plain American people.” Somewhat to the surprise of Eastern- ers, he declares that California is full of plain citizens who face the facts and never indulge in high-flown Speech. « Perhaps he hopes to make a sen- sation by avoiding anything sensa- tional. Mark Antony was no orator such as Brutus was. All he could do was to speak right on. But he suc- ceeded in making one of the most ef- fective addresses known to literature. Mr. Scott may be able to do something like that. Common sense and understatement from California might be presented to the Republican convention somewhat as follows: “Gentlemen, I come from the greatest state in the Union with to nomingte it all right, but I - wae ot rig! was disap: ee pointed.’ But this is seldom true of political |S officeholders.

Either they do not un- derstand the plainest language, such as I used in the article this cor- respondent quotes, or they forsee a harder existence for themselves if such an attitude becomes popular and with that prospect they become indignant and wish to have me pun- ished or censured for my utter lack or sympathy and all that sort of thing. Notice how this correspondent seeks to divert suspicion to his nerves. It is all his bad nerves, you must ac- knowledge, and never by any chance let on you suspect he may be just naturally a selfish, dishonest person demanding the indulgence of every- body else in order that he may get by without shouldering his share of responsibility for anything. These grown-up “neurotics” or “neurasthenics” or “bundles of nerves,* as they incessantly call themselves. are just pampered. hu- mored. coddled, spoiled, nasty-dispo- sitioned children, and everything has been made so soft for them in child- hood that they refuse to grow out of grown men and women. That's what the alibi of “nerves” is. If we are to give sympathy to anybody we should give it to the self-sacrificing indulgent parents, the faithful chil- dren who put up with the selfishness and ill-nature of these “nervous wrecks.” __ The nerve of this neurasthenic writ- ing to me for help and deliberately quoting the gist of my teaching as tho to show me how contemptible he thinks my ideas on the subject are! The way to neurasthenia is always the same—duck, dodge, evade, pre- tend, make believe, play the little snob, try to make people think you are better than the common run of folk, put on airs, in short be every- thing but honest with yourself and with your fellows. Notice how these big crooks of high life invariably suffer with a “com- plete nervous breakdown” when they vealize the game is up? They're as genuinely victims of bad nerves as any little weasel is who trumps up his nerves’ as an alibi when he is caught sucking eggs that do not be- long to him.

New York, June 3.—It’s high time for Professor Baker to organize a rooting section for his famous the- atrical workshop at Yale. Sis-boom-bahs should be echoing along Manhattan’s gay white way for those two lads who carried a play down the field from New Haven to Hollywood. They were blocked at Broadway, but broke through to a little theater in Greenwich Village; blocked again by the cops, they tackled the law on the five-yard line, | took a slight loss but finally won for dear old Yale. Hollywood took the movie rights and the young heroes will not have to work their way through college; or through life for several years, for that matter. *e % They are Albert Metz and George Sklar, and though sons of Eli, still were old enough to have observed the tangled ramifications of New York's political intrigueries. So they wrote a whitehot play, “Merry-Go-Round,” wherein an innocent lad went to tragic death thanks to monumenting involvements. The drama was put on by Prof. Baker; nobody on Broad- way wanted to touch it, fearful of jfinger burns; an independent pro- duction made critics cheer; an effort at uptown production brought police interference, on a slight technicality, thus giving some strength to their thesis; finally the play opened. Now Universal has bought it for a neat sum. And if enough rooters gather at 42nd Street and Broadway, some producers might hear the shout- ing and gain courage. \ *# % * HERE'S A WYNNER!

Barkley of Kentucky delivers the key-note speech at the Democratic national convention, as he probably will, it would seem as if mutual fore- bearance might be the better part of valor for all concerned, for Senator Barkley has ahead of him one of the most difficult of all acts in these “Political Follies of 1932.” It would seem as if Senator Barkley had better soft-pedal the tariff issux which his party has trumpeted so raucously in its attacks on the Repub- licans in the last two years. * oe % NO LAUGHS, PLEASE And it would seem as if the dele- gates had better prepare to refrain from bursting into laughter in case Senator Barkley starts larruping Re- Publican tariffs or to let well enough alone in case he says nothing about the tariff at all. As for what Senator Barkley and the convention had better do about the prohibition issue when the senator gets up there on the platform, one is not quite so sure.

When Senator Barkley voted to put Prohibitive tariffs on oil and coal into the tax bill a terrible groan argqse from that particular group.

He likes the idea of being both. But he likes the idea of being a senator most. There's coal in them thar hills of Ken- tucky and Barkley, like’ most other |senators, felt the need of acting for his back home interests. His vote for the oil tariff, however, laid him open to the charge that he had been persuaded to trade an oil vote for coal votes. Barkley’s votes and the subsequent resentment demonstrated again the tough time the Democrats have been having with that tariff issue of theirs. x * O* FEW ISSUES LEFT There aren't many issues between the parties, heaven knows, and the Hawley-Smoot tariff is about the only weapon the Democrats can use with any plausibility to make people think that the Republicans are at least part- ly responsible for the depression. They have been using the tariff for that purpose month after month, only to find lately a group of Democratic senators helping sneak oil, coal, lum- ber and copper tariffs into the tax bill. No wonder Senator Cordell Hull of Tennessee, perhaps the bitterest ene- my of Republican tariff policy, who had led the fight for Barkley’s choice as temporary chairman, threw up his hands in dismay and is understood to be now opposing Barkley for the key- note job. # ¥ * WHICH I8 THE SILLIER?
