Late dispatches and the latest New York Times indicate that President-elect Hoover will probably name Assistant Attorney-General “Wild Bill” Donovan for the office of Attorney-General in spite of the oppositions of drys and Southern anti-Catholics. The New York Times's Washing- ton correspondence strongly intimates that the| Anti-Saloon League and Southern Democrats \v)m“ supported Mr. Hoover had undertaken too much, | and had done a lot of unnecessary out-loud talk- ing. They bragged that they had Donovan spiked | and declared they were after Secretary Mellon. | Bishop Cannon (styled the Pope of Virginia by Senator Glass) wrote Mr. Mellon a letter in which he intimated that he did not want to enforce Prohibition. Scuthern dry leaders had even gone so far that Mr. Hoover had said that| as to sa While Mr. have declared make it clear outset that no nized. It was said, further, that Mr. Hoover is con- sidering the appointment of former Senator Wads- worth to be Secretary of War. Mr. Wadsworth just recently accepted a position on the Board| of Directors of the Association Against Prohibi- tion. However, he has special qualifications for the War Secretaryship. He was Chairman of | the Senate Military Affairs Committee when he| retired from the Senate, and he is admitted to be one of the ablest men that have served in public life in recent years. | © However, there is a good deal of futiity in| all this discussion of what the new President Hoover has said nothing, friends| that he feels that he had as well to the Anti-Saloon League at the| super-government will be recog- | will do. 1In a little more than a month he| Wwill be in office, and then we shall see what we shall see.

(Vancouver, B. C. Tribune.) Poor od Uncle Sam is getting some rude jolts om his young and hitherto most obliging cousin, Jack Canuck, these days. We've known all along that the lad had a mind—yes, an ego of his own but as far the U. 8. A. was concerned it seemed to be kept a deep, dark secret. The cat is out of the bag now and the lid is off. Uncle n started by taking something, i. e., practically all the avaiable radio broadcasting wave-lengths for the continent. He followed, up a8 by sending a delegation (unofficial, perhaps, but none-the-less 100 per cent. American, whatever | that is) king Canada to put a ban on exports| of liquor from the Dominion and destined for the| land of liberty, where liguor is prohibited. He got the first jolt when the Dominion Government allowed station CKY, Winnipeg, to step up its| powle from 500 to 5000 watts. The Federal Radio | Commission had agreed to allow CKY to share its| wave-length with an American station, but the' power was not to exceed 500 watts. T2 other words, “‘Pooh, pooh for your Federal Radio Com- on, Unce Sam, and all its works.” The second jolt came in the refusal of Canada | to monkey further with the United States prohibi- tion problem. Canada’s representatives made it clear that this nation has done a great deal already to help Uncle Sam in an experiment which we found costly and inffective. William II. and Woodrow Wilson. (New York Worid.) In' his new volume, “My Ancestors,” the| former Kaiser gives a paragraph to the “world enthronement” of Woodrow Wilson's ideas in| 1918 and the consequent breakdown of German resigtance William II. had good reason to re- memtber the facts. When Wilson declared that “it is indispensable that the Allies should know | beyond preadventure with whom they are deal- ing,”" the Germans resolved to get rid of a ruler who blocked the way to peace. But as it has been the practice of not a few writers to minimize the role which President Wilson's ‘“rhetoric” played in ending the conflict, the emphatic tes- timony of the Kaiser is important. “Wison,” he says, “was able to stir up and inflame the Ger- mans with his world enthronement of an idea. But then when the Germans were won over by this idea and when they had given away all means of self-defense, there was no more talk of this idea.” This is good evidence, and not the less tell- two ideas of Wilson's which were as potent as armies. One was the doctrine of a peace of jus- tice emobdied in the Fourteen Points and truly “world-enthroned” by the Stockholm Conference of 1917, the Reichstag resolution written by Erz- be the Russian peace proposals .and other ev nts. Its later history was unhappy, as the Kaiser notes, but not through Wilson's desire, (:m-x_nnn people and German autocrats, first fully outlined in the reply to the Pope. It served as an !mmeuse and finally irresistible wedge. In fact, it set in motion forces which have placed (:er: many where it is now, with a republican gov- nment in Berlin and the Kaiser with authorship at Doorn toying The Greatest Victory. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) America now has achieved the greatest air victory in the history of aviation. The wonderful performance of the army monoplane Question Mark has won the interest not only of the man in the street, but that of the world of science in unusual degree. New aerial problems have been demonstrated and solved every world record has been shattered; the endurance of man and mechanism takes on extended imitations. The fight and feats of the Question Mark open up strange vistas of aginative specuation. It now becomes a mark” as to what possibilities in heavier-than-air navigation remain to defy the genius, courage and skill of men. Fuel and food at necessary intervals were transferred aloft by attendant t ansport planes. The fog and the darkness prevalled not against dng an editorial on Tex Rickard in a California | weekly paper. The C country editor, | ter a more or less graphic account of Rickard’s! lifornia funeral where, it said, the son of a former| President of thie United States acted as a pall | bearer, declared .hat Rickard succeeded in interesting the socially | elect in knockouts, count-outs, and gave eminence to pugilism it had never before attained. The editorial continued: Yet this man, so signally deified in this new questioner of the heavens, which has vanquished all obstacle, covered epic distance and contributed to the greater glory . 3 greater glory of the United States of An S It President Hoover could follow the Musso- lini method in making Cabinet appointments, {ome of his pre-inauguration troubles o would be over.— (Detroit Free P It won't be long until v i i news writers will hegin speaking of Mr. Coolidge as the retiring { President, although for nearly eight vears he has been ome of cur most retiring Y st retiring executives.— (Kan- | sas City Star.) o Tan 3 death, was nothing short of a conscience- g’,g less blackleg, essentially the exponent ,% of the underworld. _ Of course the California editor knew nothing ‘Tex Rickard.
