RECORDS SUGGEST SPECIAL MATCH RACE. Not since 1923 has as good opportunity been offered for a special contest for the race horse champion- ship of the world as that presented by the victory of Mate over Twenty Grand and Spanish Play in the Arlington Classic Saturday. Twenty Grand W defeated by Mate in the famous Pimlico. Then Twenty Grand won over Mate in the Kentucky Derby. Twenty Grand followed the Kentucky victory by winning the Belmont Stakes. | at Chicago, and Twenty Grand Mate won the American Derby Spanish Play won the Latonia Derby. did not participate in either the American or Latonia Derby. However, Mate’s victory in the Arlington Classic over both Twenty Grand and Spanish Play with the latter running second to Twenty Grand’s third, leaves the 1931 three-year- old championship in such a state that nothing will clear it up except a special match race. The ideal sporting event would be a match race over a mile and a quarter on the Belmont Track, the best two out of three, in which the entries would be Twenty Grand, Mate and Spanish Play. The match is suggested by the fact that the racers this year have been breaking records. That proves that all of them are very fast horses. They have beaten each other and made new track records to accomplish it. Not since Man o' War broke not only track records but distance records, have such a string of horses as Twenty Grand, Mate and Spanish Play performed on the American race tracks. The racing fans of the country had about de- cided that Twenty Grand was the greatest race horse since Man o' War when Mate soundly trounced him in the Arlington Classic. However, notwith- standing the fine records that are being made by the 1931 horses, none of them have closely ap- proached the great performances of Man o' War. Not only did Man o' War win twenty firsts and one second out of twenty-one starts, but he made the one mile and a quarter in two minutes flat, -two and two-fifths seconds faster than the great 1931 fase horses have done. A special race to determine the 1931 champion- ship is suggested. “ORGANIZED LIQUOR INTERESTS.” In an attempt to prove that the “wets"—those oposed to Federal Prohibition—have changed front when they argue for the control of liquor by sep- arate States within their own boundaries, the Metho- dist Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals quotes articles printed nearly twenty years ago in the Wine and Spirit Circular and the Brewers’ Journal opposing local option. That illustrates very clearly how befogged is the dry conception of the whole movement for the repeal or amendment of the Eighteenth Amendment. The drys insist that the battle against Prohibition is being directed by “the organized liquor interests.” ‘That is not the case at all The back bone of the- movement for the repeal or amendment of Prohibition is the desire of people to remove unenforceable laws from the statute books and thus promote law and order and temperance. The American Bar Association, the American Fed- eration of Labor and scores of similar organizations are opposing Prohibition but they are far removed from and totally unrelated to ‘“organized liquor interests.” The next most important element of those who oppose Prohibition are men and women who oc- casionally drink wine and beer and liquors of various kinds and insist that others have no moral right to interfere with them when they do so. They believe that people have a right to govern their own conduct as long as they do not interfere with the right of others to do likewise. “The organized liquor interests,” if there are such, are those engaged in the unlawful traffic— or bootlegging. The bootleggers in the large cen- ters of population have been getting along under Prohibition to their satisfaction. Legalized liquor would do more than anything else to put the bootleggers out of business. TALKIES IN COLLEGE. ‘Teaching university students by means of talk- ing motion pictures has bzen put into practice for the first time at the summer session at Washington University in St. Louis. A continuous program from 9:05 o'clock in the morning to 3:45 o'clock in the afternoon was shown on the screen with noted educators from all over the country as the star performers. If the experiment is & success, it may mean the day of the “canned professor” is fast approach- ing, according to Dr. Frank L. Wright, Dean of the School of Education at Washington University, under whose department the show was given. “Go- ing to the movies” for college students in the future may mean szeing and hearing a favorite professor will_promptly | TO BE LARGER Preakness aLlawed. other nations. in some distant educational institution perform on |the silver screen. | Ten different feature pictures were shown on |the inaugural program with ten to fifteen minute 1?}‘.‘1](‘1])‘1] of the Horace Mann Elementary School. | The next was conducted by Dr. Arnold | Gesell, Direetor of the |discussed “The Study of Infant Behavior." class new Mayor | Seattle's Harlin threatens to have|of political victory and defeat, Cor- |a City Councilman impeached 'for saying mean'del Hull has fought high tariffs. |things about him.

On| |October 1, 1928, the famous Five-Year Plan was| launched. Its aim was to achieve by an immense | and ordered effort a large increase in Russia’s pro-| ductivity. Now, when the Plan is but half-com- | pleted, a Commission of seventy-three members has |been appointed to work out the details of a second | Five-Year Plan “for the industrial and general |economic development of the Soviet Union.” How {far the first plan has succeeded it is impossible to!| say with any exactness.

(Cincinnati Enquirer) Although they have had the franchise through- out the country for a decade, and much longer in some states, women have not become nearly as |significant a factor in the ordering of the public |business as was expected. Elections bring much the| same results as always, with the usual percentage of | unsound choices . 1 What is true of women as voters, is likewise true| of them as office-holders. Few have distinguished themselves, and few have been conspiciously incom- | petent or dishonest. A dead level of ability and| performance somewhat below normal might charac-| terive the record of the sex in political office. The ousting of Mrs. Jean Norris, New York City Magistrate, by the Appellate Division, is not culcu-‘ lated to help the prestige of women office-holders. She was the first woman appointed to the bench in New York, and after ten years her alleged dis- honest and unehtical actions brought dismissal. Something of the same trend is apparent in sev- eral other women office-holders, although dishon-| esty is not involved. Mrs. McCormick, of Illinois, after some service as a Congresswoman, not only| failed of election to the Senate, but was found by an investigating committee to be in a class with a' half-dozen men who, by spending vast fortunes,| sought to “buy” their way into the Senate. The| not-too-brilliant career of “Ma” Ferguson is another. case in ‘point. Emptying the jails by a tour de force may be charitable, but it is hardly a proof of good government, On the other hand, there are the former Governor | of Wyoming, the woman Mayor of Seattle, Judge Florence Allen in Ohio, who have creditable records,| and also a considerable bevy of Congresswomen from here and there, few of whom have dis- tinguishedf themselves, but none of whom has got into serious trouble. Perhaps after another decade the prospects of women in office will be clearer. “Abe” and “AL” (Seattle Post-Intelligencer.) In his recent speech at the rededication of Lin-! coln’s tomb at Springfield, President Hoover paid his | respects to another famous son of Illinois. When Lincoln was a boy clerk in a grocery store he sold tax-free liquor as openly and legally and cheaply as vinegar or molasses. There were such slight opportunities to get ahead in the liquor business in those days that Lincoln had to turn to the practice of law to make a living. Prohibition has changed all this, producing an Al Capone in a State which had produced an Abra- ham Lincoln. Until Illinois or some other State gives us an- other Lincoln who will tackle Prohibition as “Hon- est Abe” tackled slavery, the proportion of racket- ers to emancipators will be about as it is today. Great men, living, make a country great. Dead, they can not keep it great. But little men could at least do their best. Senators Brookhart and La Follette favor the in- ternational debt plan proposal, but think there should be a special session of Congress to pass upon it. Couldn't these gentlemen be a little easier on the country?—(Kansas City Times.) Out at San Francisco, Goat Island has been renamed Yerba Buena, exactly the same sort of “reform” as calling Bloody Run Boulevard, Victory Parkway.—(Cincinnati Enquirer.) The removal from the bench of New York's first woman Judge, for reasons a plenty, just reminds us that the Nineteenth Amendment was gonna purify politics.—(Cincinnati Enquirer.)
