TAMMANY REJEC GOV. SMITH'S Tammany has rejected the counsel of Gov. Bmith and chosen John F. Curry, an old time District Leader, for chief to succeed Judge George W. Olvany, who recently resigned, on account of his health, he said, though it generally has been assumed that he retired in the interest of harmony for the or- ganization ' and peace for himself. Judge Olvany was selected on the advice of Gov. Smith to succeed | the late Charles F. Murphy. He was one of the high type of public men that came to the front under the leadership of Gov. Smith. He is a schol- arly and cultured gentleman, an able lawyer who made a fine record sa a jurist. Under his leadership Tammany attained the confidence and respect of the thinking people of New York and the country in greater degree than ever before in the history of the organization. With him became prominent such men as Senator Wagner, Judge Lehmann, Judge Cordoza, Judge Foley and others However, much of the rank and file of Tammany has found this parade on the higher levels irksome. The task of making Tammany respectable in the eyes of the country has not fitted conception of politics entertained by a majority of the old District Leaders whose experiences have dated back to the Croker and early Murphy days, and much criticism has been heard in many Tam- many circles of the independence and “high brow” course of Gov. Smith. Apparently the “old guard” element has triumphed over the “elder statesmen” —Smith, Wagner, Foley and Walker. Also, appar- ently, the “elder statesmen” lost when Mayor Walker Joined the “old guard.” 5 However, only time.witldisclose the. effeet of this rejection of the counsel of Gov. Smith, Senator Wagner, Judge Foley and others who have striven with a lot of success to make Tammany the cleanest, most progressive and most really efficient political organization in the country. The defection of Mayor Walkew who was carried into office through the efforts of Gov. Smith, Sen- ator Wagner, Judge Foley and others, has sur- prised many of his friends. It became evident, how- dwell and in with the| The arrival of Cramer and Gamble at Nome shows that aviation has made some progress since |that first New York to Nome expedition when all summer was required for its accomplishment.

Boise, Idaho, Statesman. Drastic orders, said to have been issued directly | |from President Hoover, warn Prohibition agents against too free use of deadly weapons during raids lundrr the enforcement law. The agents are also warned to be sure that they have’proper evidence on which to base raids and then to gb into action |wary of the sanctify of homes and rights of eciti-| | zens. The Executive has probably been impelled to| such action by the swelling volume of indignation throughout the Nation over recent unwarranted | |raids and resultant killings. But it seems just an-| other case of “locking the stable after the horse is ctolen.” 3 | High-handed methods used in fanatical enforce- ment had been upheld too often by authorities and inevitably led to the resultant tragedies attendant | upon minor infractions of that law. Sympathy does not lie entirely with the victims ‘of these arbitrary land ruthless law officers. The average citizen up- holds reasonable law but not to the extent of trad- ing & human life to prevent the sale of a pint of liquor. | That law officers themselves often do not possess a firm belief in the righteousness of their own ac-| |tions is shown in the case of recent killing of a |woman in a raid at Aurora, Ill, incited thereto by | the alleged perjured story of a “snooper.” | The “snooper” now threatens to fasten the blame for the raid upon the County authorities and the |latter seem disinclined to probe the case. But the people have become aroused so thoroughly as to de- ymand a full investigation. Lives are cheap when they become such pawns in a game in which legally constituted authority seems to lack faith in its own convictions. | Contemporaneously comes a statement from the| . Treasury Department at Washington showing that since the law had been on the statute book it has cost 196 lives. The files of any newspaper would | Zprobnbly record a greater number and show the inaccuracy of the Federal statistics. In Chicago, New York, San Francisco and the vicinity of those {cities the total would seem more than the Federal (total given for the entire country. This administration of law by the use of armed forces recruited from the class that conceives noth- 1ing dishonorable in “snooping” and have little* regard ;ror human life when it can be taken under semblance of legal action, insuring the slayer's own | rsmmunlty from penalty, seems far remote from an| advancement toward American ideals. Law enforcement seems to have become imbued with too much fanaticism to be carried out with popular approval. { i ) The Illinois deputy who killed a woman and elped club' a man into insensibility says he is sorry.

By BAM HILL : T e No Joke Getting Up in the Cold Though spring’s the time for Na- ture to wake up, When it stays cold and fires we still must keep, Then, e'en as you and I, she dreads the getting up, And murmurs, “Oh! Go way and let me sleep.” l I Has Quit Bringing Her Any “Dpes your husband eat much candy?” asked the caller. { “He used to when he would bring me a box of it during the courting days, but he hasn't eaten mueh since we. have been mar- ried,” sighed his wife.

More or Less True When *a woman is thin and she reaches middle age, she sighs for something that will give her youth- ful curves, but all a skinny middle- aged man wants is a pair of sus- penders that will hold up his pants. Twenty yeéars ago even a brazen hussie would have thought you crazy if you had declared 20 years later that a girl who thought it improper to go without a corset would be considered crazy enough to be put ip the booby hatch. Daughter might have a hard time shocking mother, but father could easily do it by bringing her home a box of candy or flowers. Another time a woman's well- known intention is A. W. O. L. is when she is jealous of a man that no other woman in the whole coun- try would, vamp if he was the only one left on earth. Many a poor man wishes to heaven he could make a fortune, not that he is so crazy for his wife to have everything she wants, but because he would like his ears to get a little more rest. The husband of a blonde never wastes any sympathy on the hus- band of a brunette, for he has learned a blonde can be as unfair as any brunette that ever lived. If it wasn't for laundries a lot of husbands would have to get up a couple of hours earlier on Monday mornings to get the family washing done before they started for the of- fice. A genius is a husband who can things she has bought he can't afford to let his wife buy. No man ever wants anything as badly as he does more of what his wife warned him just before the meal they are sharing with unex- pected guests they are short of and not to dare ask for a second help- ng.
