ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET. Gov. Alfred E. Smith of New . T. Robinson of Arkansag for its standard rs in the forthcoming national campaign, the Democratic Party acted with a great deal more of wisdom and political acute- In selecting York and Senator has ness than it customarily displays in its quad- rennial national gatherings Certainly it ex- pressed in its choice the wishes of a wery large majority of the members of the party through- out the country, That the delegates were s0 quickly ble to gree upon the Presidential and Vice-Presidential nominees, with a minimum of dissension and almost no bitterness of factional feeling displayed, augurs well for a united party in the Fall elections Nor could the convention have selected two abler and better qualified men from almost every standpoint. Judged by their public service ov 1 period extending from the beginning of the present century they are worthy of not only the honor bestowed on them by the party but of occupying the high offices for which they are put forward. Gov. Smith’s services to the peaple of New York have stamped him as an able, fearless, forward-looking and progressive executive. The record he has made is plain, written into the e of New York in such fashion ty need r it can the opposing party. in recent months history of the S that neither he nor his be successfully attacked It has been told far and by wide 80 that there are few persons able to read and understand the English language who are un- familiar with it. As a campaigner there are few men in public life today who are his peers. His is a forceful and compelling personality, one that wins friends and followe ily and holds them fast. No Governor of New York in modern times has ever captured the popular imagination so completely as he. Without making any personal effort during the pre-convention campaign for the party’s nomination, the magic of his name was clearly established by the manner in which he swept State after State that had been counted him. A prominent Eastern Republican politician is credited with having said once that if Al' Spith could talk to every voter, it would be impossible to defeat him for the Presidency. It will be vastly interesting to watch his progress during the coming months. Two questions that will be sure to be dis- cussed during the campaign will be Gov. Smith's religion and his stand on Prohibition. That the former will seriously injure his chances for elec- tion is unthinkable. All past history of the republic seems to indicate that the forces of religious intolerance are powerless against the American traditions of fair-play and religious freedom. The Anti-Masons and Know Nothings were futile organizations. And the Ku Klux Klan, which is not now nearly so numerous as four years ago, cannot hope to be more suc- cessful. That it will fight Gov. Smith must be recognized. But its very opposition is more like- _ ly to add to his strength than diminish it. i ¥ _ dustrial . Massachusetts and New Jersey, . ming-mate. Gov. Smith’s position on National Prohibition has been defined so often that there can be none who are ignorant of his conmviction that the Volstead Act is a mistake. A profound believer in the doctrine of State Rights, he holds that each State should be permitted to write into its laws what it considers to be intoxicating liguer. He has not altered this opinion since he became the leading candidate for his party’s nomination. Apparently his position has the sup- port of liberal forces in all sections of the country and particularly in the big Eastern, in- States like New York, Pennsylvania, The votes it may cost him in some sections of the country prob- . ably will be more than made up by gains in such - commonwealths. Benator Robinson’s qualifications are not less notable than those of Gov. Smith. He brings to the ticket years of experience in the United States Congress rounded out as leader of the Democratic minority in the Senate. He is as much of a two-fisted political fighter as his run- He is equally as good a campaigner . @8 the New York executive. His mnomination f": ould be sufficiently gratifylng to the Southern Btates to prevent any serious disaffection. His ord on the farm relief legislation during the two sessions of Congress is one that will to the farmers. He not only voted fir McNary-Haugen measure but also voled to ide the President’s veto of that measure bly the convention had in mind placating | Southern dry Democrats. and appealing to farmers in turning to him for second place on the national ticket. But these are not the mly reasons for his selection. Sheer ability en- him to the place, in fact would have made a m’lno‘otlnr unavailable candidate for Presidency under different political condi- _than now exist. the ty organization.

One answer lies in the fact that secondary educa- tion has expanded even more rapidly . The mil- lions in the high schools must be provided swith teachers, and these are forthcoming from the univer: s. At Columbia University the degree holders in education, Bachelors and Masters, would, at a rough calculation, be about one-third of the whole number. If to these we add the postgraduates in political science, philosophy and pure science, of whom the greater number may be expected to take up teaching in the colleges, it would appear that very nearly one-half of the graduates of this particular university have chos- en education for their lifework. Despite doubts raised in certain disenchanted quarters, we must still hold that greater than America’s material prosperity is this broadening of educational facilities for the entire nation. Against the other superstition that New York is not America is this demonstration of the full share which Columbia University, with its near- est sister institutions — New York University, Fordham and the City College — has taken in broadening and deepening the foundations of democracy and adding to the nation's intellectual and spiritual resources for enjoying a riceh life, B TR S Feet and Faces.
