The heartfelt sympathy of the whole Nation goes out to Speaker Garner whose mother is dead at the old family home at Detroit, Texas. It is agreed by those who have studied the remarkable career of John N. Garner that he owes to this 8l-year-old mother who is now dead a lot for the character and ability that made possible his remarkable record. Garner's career has been achieved by a determined and persistent fight. It did not come through any special turn in affairs that gave him prominence in the spotlight. It came by a lifej time of devotion to duty as he saw it. He grew bigger and bigger as the years came and departed. He never relapsed. He always pushed forward from achievement of the past to greater and greater achievements through continuous hard work. He mastered the tasks of today and was thereby fitted for the greater tasks of tomorrow. His mother was that sort of a character. She did her work well She reared her family and performed the duties of a house-wife and mother well. She sought neither fame nor glory. She was content in doing well the | tasks that she met from day to day, permitting the future to care for itself. She was very proud of her son. not so much for the reputation gained by him as for the reason that she watched him grow and knew he was deserving of the position and fame that he acquired. “They have made no mistake,” she said when her son was chosen to be Speaker of the House, “John was a good boy and is a good man.” the Vice-Presidency. It seems a pity that she could not have lived another two months. Mr. Garner and his mother were very close They understood and loved each other intensely. His loss is all the more on that account. The sym- pathy of the people for him in his terrific loss is greater because of it. LET THE BEST TEAM WIN. “The World Series, the annual baseball classic, will be a battle between the two great American cities. The American League team of New York will play the National League team of Chicago. The situation is one that ought to bring out large attendance and produce large receipts. No other two cities have as large population from which to draw audiences. On the record the New York team ought to win— if Babe Ruth sufficiently recovers from his illness to participate in his best form in the games. How- ever, there have been times aplenty when the outcome did not favor the team with the best record in the pennant contests. Philadelphia ought to have won last year, but she did not. The Giants have won against the Yankees when the record pointed toward the latter as deserving victory. Whatever may be the result, we are certain to have some interesting baseball news during the days that follow the beginning of the World Series on September 28 and continuing until the contest is completed. So let those of us who are unable to witness the games follow the reports with interest. Let the attitude be that of one who can say: “Let the best team win." WESTERN RECEPTION TO ROOSEVELT. Beattle's reception to Gov. Roosevelt was worthy of that enterprising City. The indications are that the Puget Sound metropolis greeted the New York Governor as one that her people believe will be the next President of the United States—and in a spirit of approval of such a result. Gov. Roosevelt's whole Western tour has been one that ought to be gratifying to him. The senti- ment everywhere seems to be inspired by a desire to do honor to the great man who has made a good Governor of the greatest of American States and one of character such as meets with the approbation of Americans. THEY LIKE HIM STILL. In spite of everything, even among those who have bitterly condemned former Mayor Walker of New York, there is a sort of wistful liking for him apparent in all utterances. His good nature with his fun-loving and charming personality, his amiable friendliess, have won the hearts of people who will not forget, even though they did not like his manner of running his office. The New York Herald Tribune, leading anti- Tammany publication, when Jimmy Walker salled from New York, with unsupressible friendliness, We wish Him a, restful voyage and a full recovery. We trust that Mr. Walker as a private citizen will long coptinue to enliven whatever circles he choosés to move in and that there will be no dimming of that engaging personality and celebrated wit.

Smith made his Western tour in 1928 consisted of fourteen cars at a cost of -43,000. Both trains were made up by the New York Central. Two distinguished women were among the Na- tional campaigners in the recent Maine political dispute. Dolly Gann, sister of Vice-President Curtis, the Nation's second lady, represented the Republi- cans and the beautiful Nellie Tayloe Ross, former Governor of Wyoming, Vice-Chairman of the Demo- cratic National Committee, represented the Demo- crats. Nellie fared better than Dolly in the results, John H.

Canadians and Hoover’s English. (New York Times.) b An interesting correspondence was provoked by an Ottawa newspaper when it published an edi- about it was Hevlyn Dirck Benson of 108 Madison Avenue, New York, who agreed that the comment on Mr. Hoover was “sound, logical and just.”” He ex- plained that “cultured Americans” do not “talk that way,” that is, in “Americanese,” and then went on with an eloquent tribute to Franklin D. Roosevelt, She was proud \who it was presumed, does not talk “that way” at all. Came Gertrude L. Warren of Amherst, Mass., who admitted President Hoover's pronounciation might have been faulty “to a slight degree” but, after all, were not Canadians “just as faulty, if not more s0,” by any recognized dictionary? There was a word of reproof from Frederick Tench of New York, who said “it would be very much better if such things were not published.” And finally came word from Estelie B. Lorimer of 2240 Winton Terrace W., Fort Worth, Texas, who wrote the editor severely about ‘judging the entire United States by the Northern half.” The Last Prop! (New York World-Telegram.) We have yet to find a single law-re- formed drunkard or a single family in the whole of the United States who has bene- fited by the passage of the Eighteenth Amendment. That knocks the last prop from the tottering argument for Prohibition. The statement quoted above is no reckless one. It is the report of a committee of five, headed by Paul Morris, of the University of Wiscdnsin, who have covered 12,000 miles in thirty-six States in a serious effort to discover authentic cases of benefit from the Prohibitiaon law. The expedition was backed by the Women’s Organization for National Prohibition Reform, the Voluntary Committee of Lawyers and other organizations and individuals. Its autobus “Diogenes” has come back to New York to complete the quest. In State after State and city after oty the chal- lenge has been carried direct to leading dry organi- zations to produce their shining examples of Pro- hibition’s reformed and reclaimed. Mr. Morris says: Of course, wé found many alcoholic ad- dicts who had given up drink for one rea- son or another. But never from statutory compulsion. Investigation always showed them to have reformed for some other rea- son. Many of the cases brought to our at- tention actually turned out to have reformed before the enactment of the Prohibition Amendment. It was a bold undertaking—with an extraordinary and compelling result. Dignity of the Willow. (New York Times.) The willow has long been a symbol of grief. “On such a night,” said Shakespeare in “The Merchant of Venice," “stood Dido with a willow in her hand.” But it has now come to be the symbol in name as well as the substance in its wood for the bats both of British cricket and of American baseball. In England, landowners, so Science Service reports, plant willows for the special purpose "of raising cricket-bat timber. The willow must now hold its head up among the trees. There is not a boy in Britain or America that doesn’t take his turn “at the willow.” Incidentally, it is incorrect to speak of him as Acting Mayor McKee; but if one wishes to speak of him as acting Mayor or as active Mayor, there is nothing to stand in the way.—(New York Times.) Campaign managers on both sides are on the hunt for effective slogans. They remember how successful we were back in the Spring of 1930 in using slogans to cure the depression.—(New York Times.) At that, Al Smith may have preferred to have a look-in on the nomination to getting the Out- look.—(Cincinnati Enquirer.) Mayor Jimmy Walker has resigned, but he is a long ways from feeling that way.—(Cincinnati En- quirer.)

She said “Please,” and then “I haven't told you why I came to meet you. It's very important.” He turned around frowning. “Can't you tell me at dinner?” “No I can't. It's urgent.” He stopped, faced her and sald. “What is it. Page will curse me.” The color burned in Nan's cheeks. How can you tell an im- patient champing man that you believe someone is going to try and kill him in the open street in broad daylight? She said with a gasp. “It's no good—you won't belleve me.” and could have said nothing that would so instantly have caught his at- tention “Why—what's up?” “I don't see how you're going to belisve me” said Nan desper- ately. Jervis stared at her. What on earth was she going to say? He decided that it wouldnt hurt Page to wait. “Go on” he said. “People do get run over” said Nan breathlessly. “Oh, constantly.” “Someone’s going to try and run over you.” “What for?” “Money,” said Nan in a tired shred of a voice. Jervis stared further. She was pale. Her eyes were wide, and solemn and frightened. “My dear girl, what are you talk- ing about?” Nan began to tell him as well as she could. Now that she had put the thing into words, it set not only her but the whole Nothing Venture « by Patricta Wentworth THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 21, 1932. of her shaking. “I don't understand,” said Jer- vis. “You heard these two men talking?

You heard my name?” “No—ilot your mname.” “Then what does all this amount to?” “Please, please, listen.” He moved impatiently. Nan went on. “The driver said, suppose you took a taxi, and the other said. lrhen you must do the best you can’ Ard the driver said he wasn't keen; and he said, ‘Take it or leave it!' And the driver said was twenty-five hundred dollars was twenty?five hundred dollars and that jail was jail. But in the end he said, ‘All right, T'll do it.’ ” “And what's all this got to do with me?” said Jervis. “1 know they were talking about you.” “But why? What made you think of #? \yho were these people? Did you know them? What made you lis’en to what they were say- ing?” “I knew them,” said Nan in & small, steadfast voice. “Who were they?” “She got out of the taxi. I knew her at once.” “She? This is the first time you've mentioned a woman. Who was sho?” “Rosamund Carew,” said Nan. Jervis threw back his head and laughed incredulously. “Go on with your fairy tale.” A fire of anger burned”in Nan’s cheeks and brightened her eyes. She stopped looking at her hands and let Jervis have the full bene- fit of the blaze. “Mr. Leonard got out after her end went into the house. That was waon T got behind the car. I wasn* going to listen—I just didn’t want him to see me. Then he came out of the house and talked ‘v the driver. I told yon what they said—and I told you before I began that you wouldn't believe me.” “What have you got against Leonard? Good Lord — what a mare’s nest. What conceivable mo- tive. could there be?” Nan looked up at him, white end steady. “Who would come into your property if you were killed in an accident today?” she said. Jervis did not start, he stiffen- ed. There was a tingling pause. Nan felt as if she had hit a lump of dynamite. She waited for the explosion but it did not come. The silence went on. She could not take her breath while it went on like that; and just as she was feeling as if something must give away, he said a low, concentrated “What a perfectly foul thing to say!” “Yes, it's foul—" She paused. “But not because I said it.” He became vividly aware of her. There was & bright stain of color high up in her cheeks—a round bright stain. Her eyes were bright and wide. There was something in them that winced and yet held firm.. In his own consciousness an implse flared — the impulse to beat down that wincing, resisting something. It flared, and went out. He rose abruptly to his feet. I expect there’s some explana- tion. Bits of a conversation are very misleading. Thank you for taking so much trouble about it.” said and turned to go. When he had gone a couple of yards he became aware of Nan|,. running to keep up with him. “I'm sorry—but—oh, you will be|? careful, wont you?” This time she got a black frown, yand then suddenly he laughed. I “I'l take a policeman along to pick up the bits!” he said, and was gone. (Copyright, 1932, Lippincott) Nan spends hours of worry, tomorrow, and writes her first check. ———e———— W. 0. M.
