He said If eévery boy in the United States between the ages of 12 and 17 could be placed under the wholesome influences of the Scout Program and should live up to the Scout oath and rules, we would hear fewer pessimistic words as to the future of our nation.

Al' Smith rules a topheavy favorite for the Democratic nomination and money is being offered at odds seven to five that he will be his party’s choice, 1In fact, he is the only candidate mentioned in wagering circles. Some conception of the Republican disarray can be gained from the odds quoted on Wall Street. One wager has been placed at one to faur and one-half, $2,000 to $9,000, that Mr. Coolidge will be renominated. Odds of two to one are ‘offered that Vice-President Dawes i not nom- inated and similar odds against the nomination of former Gov. Frank O. Lowden. Mr. Hoover seems slightly stronger with eight to five odds that he does not receive the nomination. © Wagers and their odds do not furnish con- clusive proof and are, in the main, based on local sentiment and conditions. Thus, Gov. Smith is undoubtedly New York's chofce, and also that of a wide section of the east, for his party’s favor, In the South, no doubt, no such 'flas M bn obtained on his chances for nomination. reflected in u recent statement by former mry of Navy Joseplus Danlels in which he d he doubted whether the New York Governor d be nominated although he declared .in case _he was confident he would be el- m end, the confidence “Dfelled by 411 most wrlalm be a factor wily: for Qe ti at_ the Gov. tion. | It will be a well-deserved recognition of | or irregularity | ¢ — |the to the | wed | —— | praecox | almost | age | Tribune land most | te one | ruption Boy | ¢ in | requ | THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, FEB. 8, v rath vement launched in his behalf, hardest sledding.

As Mr. Sulli- van points out, there are many communities. in which the local Democratic machine is opposed to Gov. Smith simply because it fears if it to his nomination it will lose its leadership. ditions of individual and local self-nterest,” Bullivan believes, are @t bottom responsible for tiie opposition to Smith, and Mr. Sullivan goes s0 far as to say that the leaders who represent this opposition “compose a litthe more than half of the party.” 'These leaders are thinking local- ly, in terms of their own jobs, and not thinking nationally 3 The best way to make them think nationally, like the best way to make them think positively, is to*mssert a positive leadership in national af- fairs.

'w York Times.) the details of Leon Trotsk ishment by the Soviet continue to country from Moscow by way of Berlin, seem to be sufliciently authenticated. The cen- sorship which prevents The Times and other newspapers from hearing directly from Moscow correspondents demonstrates that the Ru Government continues to rely on the popular and ancient instrument of imperialism—the suppre sion of facts—to aid in the employment of auto- cracy's second oldest penalty, banishment. In his determination to eliminate Trotsky and his less- er colleagues, Kameneff, Zinovieff and Rakovsky, Dictator Stalin is following the practices of every despotism that has existed since the world began, practices that antedate civilization itself. The governmental system which Lenin saw as restoring the proper social and economic bal- ance of man is being employed as imperial Rome and Czarist Russia employed it in common with all tyrannical forms of administration. A Consul fallen from power, a conqueror or Senator dis- graced, was often spared from death by the Ro- mans because they felt that it was a far worse fate to send him to the borders of some wild land, his destiny never to behold the Seten Hills again. The Czars, in the same mood, sent to Siberia many of those whom they wished to punish and for whom death seemed too lenient an end. In the history of ecivilization, as soon as rulers have progressed beyond the point where the blood of the victim was the most pleasing sight to them, they have found the lingering horrors of banishment brought most gratification to their souls. Not a banishment such as Ci- cero’s to Baiae, but banishment—such as is re- ported for Trotsky—to a savage land where life must be lived in boredom and Wretchedness. In this country, or in any liberal” democracy, exile for political reasons is an exercise of tyran- nous power so incredible that it could not even be conceived, much less borne, by the public. The frequent use of his imperial foree by the Soviet is one of the things which distinguish the false ideal of popular government from the true. _— A Democratic convention so. near fhe Mexi- can horder will give a lot of Mexlean politicians a4 chance to see how harmony 8 preserved in the deliberations of Nordic political assemblies. ~—(Indianapolis News.)
