For him there is no good in either the Church nor New York's famous Governor. He recognizés no close | season on either, but attacks both without rhyme or reason. Never was this his attempt to link Catholic Church with Hearst’s recent “Mexican plot exposure” in which the Hearst newspapers published documents, later established as for- geries, purporting to show among other things that Senators Heflin, George W. Norris, William E. Borah and Robert LaFollette had been offered bribes to defend Mexico. tov. Smith is not and _ mever has been either a personal or political ~ friend of Hearst. He has been definitely antag- onistic to him and the latter has on more than waged bitter political against the Democratic leader of New York. Nor has Hearst ever shown any preference for Catho- lieism. There is no possible connection between his publications and the Catholic Church. Even Heflin, unblinded by his desire for revenge . against Hearst and his hatred for Catholies and ‘Gov. Smith, would recognize this fact. His own Alabama constituencyhas not been unaware that his attitude in the Senate on these | questions - has been making him the laughing ‘stock of many of his colleagues and arousing lisgust throughout the country. Not longer than " last year during the session of the Alabama Leg- jglature, one of the members of that body with . & sense of humor. possibly minded to shock Hef- ‘lin to his senses, introduced a resolution calling " attention to the ‘valor, bravery and foresight” with which he was preventing the “Pope of * Rome” from attacking the country, and resolving CALLED.

More than twenty million of us now bowl over fine roads. And yet the automobile manu-| facturers are so confident of the future that in 1927 they speut the enormous sum of $300,000,- 000 to expand their manufacturing and selling facilitics. Why not? Twenty-five years ago a few unimaginative, gloomy conservatives predict- ed that the ‘“‘saturation point” would be reached with three million cars on the registration books. More than that number were sold in 1927 alone, and the estimate for 1928 range from an over- optimistic 5,000,000 to a more plausible 3,750,- 000. Soon we shall be exporting a million cars a year. Even then the once dreaded saturation | point is not in sight. A single car, once the dream of every American, is no longer enough Already 2,700,000 families find two cars ne sary to complete happine:s according to a sur- vey made by the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce, and this although the ‘“two-car market” has hardly been exploited. ' Even the farmer must have his two cars—one for pleasure and one for hard, workaday use. The truth is| that our mode of living is profoundly influenced in ever new ways by the cheap, fast, durable and now indispensable automobile.

However, the total wealth of Nevada is vety small by comparison, being $565,000,000. The lowest per capita is found in Alabama, whose total wealth is $3,264,000,000 theoreti- cally divided between all its inhabitants would give each $1306. New York is 14th on per capita list, at California is 7Tth at $4000, that State’s being given at $16,718,000,000. $3 tota German census reports indicate that the popu- lace is less religious than before the war.
