A short time before, when refusing to summon Congress in extraordinary ses- sion, he had sagely and wisely declared that the! depression cannot be legislated away or cured with political panaceas. This position of the President is not in har mony with his idea of things when he said that with God’s help he would banish poverty from the | land nor with his assurance on many occasions that action had been taken that would speedily lead to the return of good times. In March, 1930, he de- clared that within sixty days industry and business | would be on an even keel and as satisfactory as that no one would know there had been a ever; crash, Well, a man has a right to change his mind if his information and judgment approves, and all of | us make bad guesses once in a while. The Presi- dent has been forced to change his mind oftener | than most statesmen and his guessing has been ! worse than the average, but the topsy-turvy world | has not been conducive to consistent thinking or to| prophecy. However, it may not be amiss to call attention to the fact that thousands of business men and most economists believe that if the outrageous Haw- | ley-Smoot tariff could be repealed a foundation | would be laid for extending markets and xmpmvxml trade. FAMOUS IAL WASHINGTON PORTRAIT. The Houdon Bust of George Washington at Mount Vernon has been chosen by the United States George Washington Bicentennial Commission as the subject for the official Washington portrait | which it will distribute over the country in its plans | for organizing the nation's celebration of the Two Hundredth Annnersnry of Washington’s Birth in| 1932. | In circulating this portrait of Washington, the United States George Washington Bicentennial | Commission will make known to Americans the work of a great Frenchman recognized as one of the foremost portrait sculptors of all time. Thus a further contribution will be made toward payment of the debt which ‘George Washington owed to Lafayette and to the French for timely aid during | the struggle for Independence. Jean Antoine Houdon lived from 1741 to 1828. Born the son of a domestic in the employ of a courtier, he rose Nke Moliere to be an outstanding figure of the Eighteenth Century and one of the glories of French culture. While Houdon is known also for imaginative sculpture, his fame rests chiefly on a series of 200 busts, a collection forming one of the monuments of world art. Besides his bust of Washington, he also made likenesses of Benja- min Franklin, John Marshall, Rosseau, Moliere, and Voltaire. The circumstances of Houdon's selection to execute a likeness of Washington are themselves an interesting page in American history. On June 22, 1784, the year after the successful close of the Revolution, the Legislature of Virginia resolved “that measures be taken for procuring a statute of General Washington, of the finest marble and best workmanship.” After much consultation, in which Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin took an active part, Houdon, already at the height of his fame, was selected as incomparably the most re- liable and proficient artist. Washington himself has left a record of Hou- don’s stay at Mount Vernon for the purpose of modeling this bust from close observation and meas- urement of Washington's features and figure. He also made a life-mask of Washington, for correc- tion of the bust. Both mask and bust served as models for the statue of Washington by Houdon ordered by the State of Virginia and later erected in Richmond. The original bust was pgesented by Houdon to Washington and has been seen by every visitor to Mount Vernon. One especially interesting circumstance ac- counts for the life which Houdon imparted to Washington’s head. During the artist's visit at Mount Vernon, Washington had occasion to de- cline with some indignation a shady bargain offered him by a horse-dealer. The passing mood impress- ed Houdon as so characteristic of the man that he immortalized it in his bust. The result in the opinion of critics, is to give the likeness striking vigor and power. CIGARETTE MAKING INCREASES. Every minute American cigarette factories turn out more than a quarter million cigarettes on the average, according to estimates based on cigarette production figures for 1930 compiled by the Bureau of Internal Revenue. These figures bear witness to the increasing popularity of the cigarette which is attributed by authorities in the industry to the re- moval of harmful irritants and persistent advertis- Government reports that the total output Iwill deport international bankers i Democrats. {friend of prematurity.

If Mr. Hoover is renomi- nated, as nothing but our faith in Mr. Brookhart's clairaudience keeps us from regarding as certain, our prime Progressive may have to sneak back into the reservation. | Immigrants and Emigrants. (Cincinnati Enquirer) Although a great stir was made in the last Congress over the proposal to bar immigration into the United States until unemployment was reme- died ,the figures for recent months indicate that this was a wholly unnecessary alarm. In March, 1,100 more aliens left the country than were ad-| mitted. More were departed by law than were ad- mitted under quota regulations. In large measures the smaller arrivals are due| to the more stringent enforcement of immigration laws by our consular officers abroad. Checking| carefully the applicants for immigration vises, these officials have been able to cut greatly the num- bers coming here to live. This has been done under existing law, without invoking any emergency measures. Perhaps even larger numbers have been de- terred from coming, merely because they know there is no work for them here. Potential immigrants to America, whether they can read and write or not, have astonishingly accurate information of the con- ditions here, through some mysterious ‘grapevine telegraph” of their own, and their applications for vises reflect closely the economic conditions of this country. With the net increase of population by immi- gration reduced to a minus figure, we can be grate- ful that this aspect of the unemployment problem has been cared for without any new legislation, which would merely antagonize foreign countries without getting any better results than we have now.
