Broadcasting from Washington to the Southern States on Friday night, Gov. Ritchie appealed to the descendants of those who gave the party its| early leaders and doctrines. In an article in the | August number .of The American Mercury, John | Hemphill of Pennsylvania addressed himself with even greater vigor to the same subject. Mr. Ritchie has our times been elected in Maryland and is an aspirant for the Presidenal nomination next year. Mr. Hemphill, as the Democratic candidate for Gov- ernor against Gifford Pinchot in 1930, lost a con- [test so close as to constitute a record vote for his party in that overwhelmingly Republican State. | The Nation again ‘needs the South, asserted | R g ol |Gov.

He declares further that the present system of Federal enforcement, aside from being ineffective in commonwealths where Prohibition runs counter to public sentiment, is in radical conflict with the traditional Southern doctrine of State’s rights. More and more, he the belief is gaining ground that the Eighteenth Amendment is contrary to the spirit of the, United States Constitution and posed to the best interesst of the people. Mr. Battle’s statement continues: Particularly in the South, I believe that this realization is deepening. The increasing chaos, confusion and crime which have re- sulted from the attempt to enforce the Pro- hibition fiat have forced serious considera- tion of the situation upon us and have led many back to the faith of our forefathers —local self-govenment, strengthened and se- cured by Federal safeguard. In a great and diversified nation only a few topics can be governed by uniform rules of conduct without subjecting many, if not most of the communities, to all the dis- astrous effects of tyranny. The system on which our country has been built up and which has been responsible for this, the oldest republic in the worid, was founded on the recognition that ‘all questions of habit, custom, manners, domestic relations, crime, etc., are essentially functions of the State Governments and that the function of the Federal Government is to protect the citi- zen in the enjoyment of his constitutional guarantees and protect the S}ates in their constitutional guarantees. As a lawyer and a Southerner, I believe we should return to this principle. To do s0 we must repeal the Eighteenth Amend- ment. op- CONTROL OF MOSQUITOES. Although to most people humming insect which goes around puncturing skins, there are many different kinds of them, says the United States Department of Agriculture, There are mosquitoes which breed in old tin cans containing water and in rain barrels, mosquitpes which breed in swamps and ponds, mosquitoes which are found in clear cool water, and mosquitoes which are most at home in the stagnant water of sewers. ‘Workers use this knowledge of the different mos- quitoes in their campaigns to eradicate the pest. For one type of mosquito they concentrate on the rain barrels, tin cans, and other receptacles near homes. Often water-lily ponds or stock ponds are breeding places of mosquitoes. Here the placing of top-water minnows or goldfish is effective, for all mosquitoes pass through a “wiggle-tail” or “wig- gler” stage and the fish feed on them. Frequently the mosquitoes breed in swamps and ditches. If it is too expens to drain these areas, the method most widely used is that of spraying fuel oil on the surface of the water. This destroys the wiggle- tails. Oiling should be very ten days during the summer to catch new crop of wiggle- tails. done each SCREEN TALKIES FOR PROFESSORS‘ In a darkened lecture -hall, with the tempera- ture of a Turkish bathhouse, students of Washing- ton University in St. Louis recently perspired freely under the instruction of “canned professors” on the silver screen. It was the university's first experi- ment in instruction by means of talking pictures and from every viewpoint except that of the weath- er, was declared an outstanding success. Eoch “movie star professor” was given a personal introduction by some resident member of the sum- mer school faculty, and then the lights were turned out, curtains pulled down and the lecture was on. It was a most realistic performance. ‘The professors, notebooks in hand, stood. before the prespiring ‘class @nd ‘deliversd their Speeches a mosquito is just a| hard times with Democratic administration.” a case,” says the Pennsylvania, “of shoot or give up the gun” What these two Eastern leaders are |urging stems from the same thought, and will un- doubtedly be powerfully supported at the next Na- tional Convention | German Psychology. { It has long been a truism that German psychology (was distinctive, if not peculiar. That was erarkcd‘ as far back as Tacitus. And now Secretary of State | timson as the most recent commentator. Returning yesterday to London after his visit ito Berlin, he appeared to put his chief emphasis thereon when quizzed at a press conference. He, noted the need for a complete change in that psychology—or frame of mind or state of con- sciousness—as a prelude to the Reich's recovery from its economic ills. A change of front by the Gov- {ernment. a change of heart by the people, are| recommended. Secretary Stimson went on further, as reported, to do some plain talking about the difficulty of altering thinking processes when given to excess of complaining, and the difficulty of borrowing from others by a man or nation claiming always to be “broke.” Such words, relayed to Berlin, may not be palatable but should be very salutary. Especially so when followed by the ‘observations that the Ger-| mans are beginning to see some bright spots, and that their condition is already bettered. The Germans have long been noted for some | odd - psychological slants. Before and during the war days there was the almost universal comment | on their lack of mental reciprocity or innate in- ability to anticipate and follow the mind-reactions of outsiders. That led to some unfortunate and | costly mistakes on ‘their part, very puzzling to them- selves. Much earlier in their national career they were addicted to a deep strain of malnacholy self-com- miseration, quite sentimental in type. It was re- flected in their literature, however much excused by collective misfortunes. 1Is it a recurrence of that . mood which has now impressed Secretary Stimson? Their burden has been and still is heavy.
