All rights of republication of all other matter herein are also reserved Two Wrongs—No Right * On two different occasions Earl Browder, Communist can- didate for president, has been prevented from making campaign speeches. The first time was at Terre Haute, Ind., where a police chief took over the job, the second wag at Tampa, Fla., 3 BESesEs The Associa’ where a group wearing American Legion caps performed this heroic feat. In each case, much to the delight of the Communists, wide publicfty attended the act. There was reason for both of these incidents. The doctrine which Browder is preaching is distasteful to a majority of the American people. They are unwilling to accept it. This is evi- dent by the lack of progress in the effort to Sovietize America. Communism doesn’t flourish in American soil. Police Chief Yates at Terre Haute and the members of the Legion at Tampa probably thought they were doing a patriotic deed by preventing Mr. Browder from making his speech. Actually, they were doing Communism a service and, at the same time DOING VIOLENCE TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES, which all of them are pledged to support. Men who have thought the thing through do not favor Communism. By the same token they DO FAVOR the consti- tution in all of its parts. Communist Browder made a speech recently in Bismarck. It was not well attended and made no particular impression here. He came into and went out of the city without attracting any particular notice. But had violence been done to him here the fact would have attracted attention to both him and his cause and Communism would probably have been given a boost in this district. The fact of the matter is, whether we approve of it or not, any citizen has the right to be a Communist if he wishes. He has a right to say so and to contend for revision of our govern- ment to correspond with his views. That is an inalienable right under the constitution and any- one who deprives him of it does violence to our fundamental document and labels himself as un-American in action, if not in intent. For if it is within the limits of the constitution to deny a Communist the right of free speech, it is only a further step to deny the same right to Republicans or Democrats. And it is only a step beyond that to deny freedom of religion and the other sacred rights which the people have reserved to them- selves under the constitution. Some weight can be given the contention that Communists hide behind the freedom of speech clause of the constitution to disseminate their propaganda. This is true. But the essential fact is that if THEY are denied freedom of speech OTHERS may be denied the same privilege. AND IT IS A GOOD DEAL BETTER TO SUFFER THE OUTRAGES OF COMMUNISTIC BLATHER THAN TO HAVE THE VERY PERSONS WHO OUGHT TO BE DEFENDING ‘THE CONSTITUTION TAKING PART IN VIOLATING IT. The consequences of such violation could be so far-reaching as to defeat the very aims they espouse. During the time of the late unlamented WPA strike, there was delivered in the Bismarck city auditorium a speech more inflammatory and more subversive to law and order than any Mr. Browder could possibly make. This speech was made in an attempt to incite to riot and disorder. Things were said for which the speaker could have been—and probably should have been—prosecuted. Yet the speaker had a RIGHT to make that speech, We have criminal syndicalism and libel laws to punish men whose tongues run away with them. To have such laws and to enforce them is sound public policy. But to suppress a speech before it is made is poor public policy because it is a step in the wrong direction. As a method of fighting Communism it is wrong in prin- ciple. The best antidote for Communism is AMERICANISM and the best Americanism is support of the constitution to the last jot and tittle. English Legal Faction Americans who read with avidity the evidence in the Simpson divorce case in London should understand the back- ground of English law and precedent which indicate that the sensational testimony given may or may not have been true in all its implications. To begin with, it should be understood that English law recognizes infidelity as the sole cause for divorce. Habitual cruelty, incompatibility, non-support and the numerous other charges that may be made in American courts are ignored in England. On this basis the only thing an English couple can do, where they are mutually agreed that divorce is desirable as seems to have been the case in the Simpson matter, is to arrange for one of them to have an “affair.” Naturally, it falls to the man to yet himself caught in compromising circumstances. If the-gentleman in question is inept and has no natural talent for such things, it can be speedily arranged. Detective agencies make a specialty of supplying co-respondents. They will even furnish the girl for the man and arrange to have the = testimony for the woman when she uses the incident as | ground for divorce. The whole thing may be—and frequently ently a bit outside the limits of entire propriety, but it must i@0K like the real thing. ’ | This legal fiction is why English folk are received in society as if nothing had happened everf after some shocking testimony “been given about their private lives.

That's an extreme statement to make as a generalization. It applies jin full to some states and to only a | modified degree in others among the several large pivotal states recently | Visited by this writer. But you may be sure the Kansas governor has learned a lot about machine politics. i ‘Those politicians had begun to rec- | ognize that the tremendous backswing jof sentiment against the New Deal | would swing just so far and that |there remained a great residue of Roosevelt popularity. Of course the campaign wasn't any- thing like the state campaigns of 1934, when many Republicans saved .| their skins by endorsing the New Deal. But it became obvious in some states that G, O. P. candidates would do well not to alienate all the Roose- velt voters, many of whom would otherwise split tickets. Simultaneously, numerous Demo- cratic candidates for state office who had thought they'd be running ahead of the national ticket began to realize that for better or worse they were in tor a ride on the Roosevelt coat-tails. ee % Put Own Candidates First In Indiana, Republican leaders were repeatedly heard asserting that their gubernatorial candidate, Raymond | Springer, would run at least 50,000 votes ahead of Landon and they| seemed to be shedding no tears or} taking any drastic efforts to prevent} that. In Michigan, National Chairman Join Hamilton was reported to have protested the preferential stress G. O. P. leaders were laying on re- election of Governor Fitzgerald, and Frank Murphy, besought by New Dealers to run for governor to help Roosevelt, seemed sure to run behind the president. Candidate John Bricker in Ohio was | mentioning Landon but causally, knowing that many Roosevelt voters would support him against Demo- cratic Governor Martin L, Davey. Jesse Barrett, Republican candidate for governor in Missouri, was pur- suing similar tactics. Hamilton and Landon were said to have had a row with Wayland Brooks in Illinois over the way he was alleged to be pro- moting his gubernatorial candidacy at Landon’s expense. Many Pennsylvania politicians were especially interested in their tocal candidates — especially in big cities where Landon was considered more of a liability than an asset. Experts differed as to whether Roosevelt or Lehman would run ahead in New York, but one heard various reports about willingness of | certain Democratic local machines to| ite down on Lehman, Whether much of all this was due to Landon’s failure to bulid himself) up as a glamorous candidate, it indi- | cates one of the serious handicaps he | has had to face. ee % Al Cheated of ‘Hero’ Role At one time Al Smith was to be the “phonograph hero” of the campaign instead of Senator Vandenberg of Michigan. A smart idea man at Republican campaign headquarters in Chicago fig- ured it would be a wow if Al should make his first campaign speech just four years from the night—and on the same spot where—Roosevelt de- livered the celebrated 1932 campaign speech wherein he panned Hoover for waiste and extravagance and for building up a federal bureaucracy and promised a balanced buget. It was agreed that Al should have | @ phonograph record of that Roose- velt speech and play selected portions of it which he would proceed to razz. | But Roosevelt crabbed the stunt by | arranging to make his answer to criticisms of his fiscal record at Pittsburgh Oct. 1. * * OK Too Fast Even for Jesse Democrats pulled “a fast one” in one Ohio city where Republi- cans were to stage a Negro rally with Jesse Owens, the athlete, as star attraction. A big sound truck werit through the colored sections with shouts of “Jesse Owens called home! Meeting called off!” And hardly anybody attended. +e % And G. O. P. Hits Back ( Also, as Landon’s train pulled out | jof Grand Rapids, Mich., and Roose- velt’s pulled in—on parallel tracks— someone of the former threw a hand- ful of Landon sunflower buttons into one of the Roo8evelt train's vestibules. | The culprit is still unidentified.

Tam-; many is up against another group of) invaders, known as the “Amer: Labor party,” who want poss the machinery of New York city's po- litical organization so that Mayor La) Guardia and the Laborites may do) with Tammany what the Nonpartisan | leaguers used to do to the Republican) party in the northwest—capture the} party label and control the primaries. | Tammany has a mayoralty election | next year. The American Labor party, which is being secretly encour-| aged by the New Deal, is endeavor-| ing to get a foothold this time so it may dominate and contro] the next city election and also the next gu- | bernatorial election. If Tammany | plays the game of the Roosevelt re- gime it will be committing political suicide. Many of the old-line leaders know what is at stake. Will they, therefore. pass out the word to scratch the Roosevelt ticket? Far from it. Such things are not done nowadays. Tam- many will not get out its vote. If Tammany were really to exert itself, New York City would give Mr. Roose- velt more than 1,000,000 majority. As a matter of fact, that’s what the New Dealers want and expect, but they are in for a suprise. The New York city majority for Roosevelt will vary somewhere be- tween 600,000 and 800,090. The Liter- ary Digest poll gives Mr. Roosevelt New York city by around 990,00 but it also gives Mr. Landon up-state New York by about 1,200,009. The Republican and New Deal chieftains up-state are not expecting the Landon vote to go beyond 800,009; in fact, the New Dealers put it down as low as 500,000 and the Republicans Election Day Suggestion | David Lawr to claim more than 700,000. fact is the up-state tide is {running higher for Landon every day and there is every reason to be- lieve that an 800,000 majority for Lan- don is conservative for up-state New | York. As for the city of New York, a ma- jority of 700,000 for Roosevelt would seem to be about what might be ex- pected, considering the defections in the ranks of what was once the Dem- ocratic party. Al Smith may not have as much strength as he had be- hesitate But the | fore, but if he converts one out of every 10 Democrats, he is making deep inroads. Likewise, the Lemke- Coughlin vote shown in the Literary Digest's percentages will have to go somewhere on election day, as there is no Lemke-Coughlin place on the Official ballot. Mr. Landon will get the better of that shift, because most of the Lemke-Coughlin vote is a pro- test against the Roosevelt regime and only incidentally interested in the Landon side. New York state plainly shows a re- ceding tide for Mr. Rooselevt. In 1925, it was manifest, as compared with 1934, and in 1934, it was apparent, as compared with 1932. This state has been slowly reverting to Republican- ism and unquestionably the dry senti- ment has been aroused by Mr. Roose- velt’s open boast that he brought “re- peal” of the Eighteenth amendment. In the old days, when there was @ wet and dry fight in New York state, the country and towns lined up against the cities. Today there is somewhat the same lineup, but the cities are not thinking about the wet and dry issue. The Republican leaders have probably underestimated their own strength in the cities and the New Dealers have overestimated it. New York state has been continu- ously classed as a doubtful state. It is. When 100,000 persons can shift their votes in the last few days and chanae the electoral count of 47 there is every reason to call it “doubtful” and “close.” In the ranks of the New Dealers, there is a sublime confidence that they will sweep the state. This is part of the “success” psychology and strategy of the New Deal high com- BY NEA SERWICE, INC, eyelashes last year. FLAPPER FANNY By. Sylvia T. M. REG. U. 8. PAT. OFF. wrence mand. The propaganda of “coming victory” in New York state has been spread so assiduously that lots of New Yorkers who are for Roosevelt aren't even going to take the trouble to vote—they will feel their vote isn’t needed. The Republicans, on the other hand, are eager to pile up a pro- test vote, no matter how the final figure looks. The Republicans are, of course, the under-dogs in the fight. They are struggling desperately to get out their vote and to push the city vote up higher and higher for Governor Lan- aon. The discussion of the payroll tax has begun to change votes. The bold strategy of the American Labor party in setting itself up as a threat! Le: to Tammany has brought disturbance in Tammany quarters. New York looks as if it were leaning very much toward Landon, but by a narrow ma- jority—possibly not more than 100,000. Your Personal Health By William Brady, M.

"addressed en’ i | } WHAT HAVE VITAMINS TO DO WITH ARTHRITIS? y There is enough acientific and clinical evidence to show that shortage: of vitamins B, C, and D may be factors in the development of arthritis, and that adequate daily doses of these vitamins may speed relief and recovery from arthritis. One ounce of Jemon juice, grapefruit juice, orange juice, tomato juice or lime juice a day will prevent scurvy. Probably 12 to 14 units of vitamin C in an ounce of citrus fruit juice or the edible part of the fruit, and the same amount in an ounce of fresh tomato juice or the pulp of fresh tomato. Canned tomato or tomato. juice (that is, canned by vacuum process as in the factory, not home-canned) contains about % of the vitamin C of the fresh vegetable. Authorities estimate than an optimal daily ration of vita~ min C for normal adults is 30 unite—equivalent to three ounces of any of the items mentioned. Many investigators believe that a prolonged moderate shortage of vitamin C, not severe enough to produce clear-cut scurvy, may account for lowering of general vitality, depression, lassitude, poor appetite, irritability. A diet deficient in vitamin C will produce in animals a joint disease resembling arthritis in man; which clears up after vitamin C has becn restored to the diet. The daily ration of vitamin B for normal adults is 30 units for each 100 calories. One ounce of wheat germ contains 350 units of vitamin B. One ounce of wheat bran contains perhaps 80 units of vitamin B, One ounce of plain wheat contains 60 units of vitamin B. One ounce of fresh peas con- tains 60 units of vitamin B. One ounce of rolled oats contains 68 units of vitamin B. One ounce of egg yolk contains 50 units of vitamin B. One ounce of whole wheat, or graham bread, 44 units; one ounce of white bread, prac- tically no vitamin B. The embryo, germ or heart of the wheat kernel, the richest natural food source of vitamin B, is removed from wheat in milling, chiefly because flour does not keep a long time unless this is done. Dried yeast is the richest known source of vitamin wi but only limited quantities of yeast may be taken for the vitamin content One suffering from chronic arthritis should have 1,000 units of vitamin B daily, and when the carbohydrate material in the diet fs restricted it is important to see to it that the vitamin ration shall not be restricted, but pane increased, by supplementing the diet with suitable vitamin concen- ates. Yolk of egg is the richest natural food source of vitamin D. Butter, cream and milk are the only other foods containing significant amounts of vitamin D, The amount required daily by an adult 4s variable; the more the naked skin is exposed to sunlight the less vitamin D is needed. There 4s a functional relation between vitamin D and the parathyroid hormone, either or both being essential for normal calcium utilization and metabolism. Treatment of chronic arthritis with massive doses of vitamin D (200,000 to kn units a day) gives relief in many cases where no other treatment QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Phobia How to cure myself of terrific fear of going out by myself...

Some of the symptoms of chronic arsenic poisoning, often not recognized, are garlic-like odor of skin, sweat and even the breath, recurring eczema, waxy pallor, red injected eyelid linings; puzzling attacks of neuritis, patches of anethesia or loss of sensation in skin, peculiar weakneas of one or another muscle group, tingling sensations, foot drop. . Never Mind the Temperature Can a nervous condition cause fever? How high can body temperature be (average daily temperature) without becoming a cause for concern? «+ (Miss A. D. G.) Answer—I advise you not to concern yourself about body temperature. Leave that to your physician’s judgment. As a rule fever is a favorable re- action, not a bad sign. If you feel feverish, tell your doctor about it. But do not monkey with clinical thermometers on your own. It only worries you and distracts your attention from seeking proper treatment for what ails you, if anything. (Copyright 1936, John F. Dille Co.)

For Ted lived an international life. On the trans-Pacific route, because of the very nature of his job, he met countless people whose names made news, A But struggling against Kay’s own nature made her restless. She wanted to'be going places, doing something all the time. Ted met such moods with an air of indulgence that caused another “Don't bob for apples, Fanny.

Kay’s ddventurous spirit had finally broken its bonds and Monte Blaine shared this mood. When it was proposed that they all go somewhere across the bay to con- tinue the party, Kay was among the first to agree. They went to one night club and then another. Gradually the three rooms which had been thrown open to guests were filled, and people had begun to take pos- session of the porches and even the kitchen, Ted was a little bewildered at the sight. He had come home late for dinner and found that the! guests had already begun to ar- rive. The members of the army crowd were strangers to him. No- body bothered to introduce him, but he supposed they were Kay’s friends. He was tired and’sleepy and, at last, retired to his den, but some of the men had already taken pos- session of it. They were shooting dice on the floor and didn’t even look up when Ted came in. A wothan hurried after him and caught his arm. “Ted Graham!” she exclaimed breathlessly. “Do tell me about that fascinating creature you brought in with you today on the plane. We read about her in the papers. Is she really: a Eurasian?” Ted laughed. “I've seen her dance,” Ted said. “And she dances remarkably well.” “Then I’m sorry she didn’t come to your party. I came all the way from San Francisco just to see her!” Pique was written on the wrinkled jowls of the dowager’s face. eee TH whole evening, to Ted, was as grotesque as this one inci- dent.
