The People’s Institute, begun under the director- ship of Charles Sprague Smith thirty-six years ago, It now ceases Department of Social Philosophy in Cooper Union. Mr. Everett Dean Martii., the director of the institute, becomes the head of the department. Its scope is practically that of the institute itself, but in the reorganization it is admitted to full membership in the institution which bears Cooper’s name. Its courses are addressed to people of open and inquiring minds, and are free to men and women of every walk of life. The purpose is not to make propaganda but to d 1ss and arrive at independent conclusions “by examining life’s problems critically.” Under competent and Gisinterested leadership Cooper ice for de- ng the faith of its founder. Demand. mocracy, and justify (Everett News.) Japan seems definits committed to the policy of demanding a navy surpassed in strength by none. months, various and sometimes unidentfied spokesmen of the Tokyo Government have repre- sented the latter as planning to make this demand at the naval conference scheduled for next year, and, in the event of its not being granted by the | other powers, of refusing to become a party to any limitations agreement. In the last few days, official notice has been given the world that this is the attitude of Japan. Instructions have been given her representatives to demand equality of tonnage with the United States and Great Britain and to refuse to accept any ' The issue, herefore, is clear. Retreat now would seem to be virtually impossible. No room appears to be left for compromise on the part of Japan. Yet, it seems a little hard to believe that a country as limited in resources as is Japan in comparison with Great Britain and the United States would to a race in naval arma- ments. Should the challenge be accepted, Japan could have no hope of outdistancing either. May it not be that Japan thinks that the popular demand for naval limitation is so great in western nations that the latter will be forced by this to bow to the Japanese nation? If so, she may find | that she has followed a false clue. Japan's record | in the Far East is not one to cause the world to put much faith in her protestations of friendship and peaceful intentions. The rights and interests of no nation are sacred in her eyes when they stand in the way of her ambitions. This has been demonstrated. This record will not be overlooked when the time finally comes for her demand for naval equaity to be considered. The Wisconsin Primary. (New York Times.) For years the Wisconsin Democrats seemed con- tent to be useful vassals of the La Follette dynasty. In '32 they threw off their feudal obligations. They record this year needs no alibis. Last Spring “Dizzy” told a somewhat skeptical baseball world that he and his brother Paul would | win together 45 games this season. was fulfilled before the World Series started. Including vesterday's_game their one gamds 'won, agatist seventeeh lost. “Dizzy” won thirty-one games, lost eight; Paul won twenty and lost nine, “Dizzy’s” 1934 record broke a Cardinal pitching record, that has stood sincg 1899, when Cy Young pitched 26 winning games. The Dean boys are colorful additions to national baseball, both from the point of view of their ability as ball players, and from “Dizzy's” frequent pranks that keep the fans wondering what he will do next. A Successful Experiment. (New York Times.) For more than thirty years the People’s Institute has carried on an experiment in adult education under the roof of Cooper Union and in accordance with the will of Peter Cooper. He directed h¥ executors to devote the property and funds of Cooper Union in part to regular free courses of instruction at night on the application of science to the useful occupations of life—meaning not merely the science of political economy but the science of philosophy of a just and equitable form of government, based upon the great fundamental law. that nations and men should do unto each other as they would be done by, and such other branches of knowledge as in the opinion of the Board of Trustees will tend to improve and elevate the working classes Of the City of New York. At that time, education was confined largely to children and youth and adults preparing for scien- tific or professional careers. But the animating purpose of Peter Cooper’s plan was to give working men and women educational opportunities, especially such as would help them perform their duties as This prediction | total was fifty-| decided to rule instead of being ruled. Their |declaration of independence forced the La Follettes to give up pretending to be Republicans and form the Progressive Party. It was felt by some Pro- | gressives that La Follette for Senator and La Follette |for Governor were a little too much of a good thing; but the royal house had to be true to itself. Returns’ from the recent primary election indicate | that the Lafollettians, stripped of Democratic aux- iliaries, are just about as strong or as weak as the regular Republicans The Progresives made a ferocious attack on Governor Schmedeman. Mr. William D. Rubin, a Democratic aspirant to the nomination for Gov- ernor, whose heart bleeds for the farmer and work- ingman, denounced him as a reactionary. Mr Schmedeman beat Mr. Rubin by four to one. The “reactionary” Governor was true to the New Deal, but his official record was his strength. Phil La Follette is an engaging orator but no heaven-born administrator. The number of Democratic candi- dates for Senator and the size of the vote testify to the belief of the Badger Democrats that they are able to paddle their own canoe. Whatever Democrat was nominated for Senator is sure of Mr. Farley's blessing, ill-omened as Jim’s benediction have proved in a number of cases. It will be remembered that Mr. Roosevelt's prudent and formal reference in his Green Bay speech to Senator La Follette was twisted by the latter's worshipers into an approval of his re-lection. Clearly it was nothing of the kind, and before long the Senator committed him- self to a singularly wild-eyed program, even for him. The Lafollettian third party doesn't look like a healthy child. Whether the Senator manages to succeed himself or not, the Wisconsin Democrats are through with him. They are now in business for themselves. With the Dillingers on the vaudeville stage and Huey Long in the Senate, what business after all, fellows, have we to throw Hitler up to the Ger- mans?—(Lexington, Ky., Herald.) Nazi Germany is reviving the old Greek custom, the hemlock cup. But after the hemlock came Alex- citizens and share in the higher satisfactions while at their several gainful occupations.

We had no govern- |ment aid, but we sorely needed a field and we did not wait. The field is only 40 feet wide at present, but it is sufficient for a safe landing! for the time, and will save us miles of walking from our cabins on the Nelchina. We had to strip the moss {from the bars first, and then it was a matter of smoothing on the posed sandy surface. The dogs surely came in handy in the work, and proved that the old fEZows are |doing their part in the progress of |the territory in more ways than one, and this time to assist the development of their new rival of transportation across the great stretches of the big Territory.” Mr. Nordgren will go -out soon |in a Star Air Service plane to Nel- china, and be the first to land on new field. Heretofore the planes serving the region have landed on a lake with pontoons, but the lake was so far away the boys were anxious to have a field near their cabins, and got in and made it themselves. feet - eee Daily Empire Want Ads Pay!

Smith, corporation counsel. He told the city council it authorizes the re- moval of unsanitary and unsafe buildings over the objections of owners. In operation, the law gives the health department authority to or- der the fire department to raze buildings it has condemned. For 30 days before the work of destruc- tion begins a sign must be posted on the building telling of the city's intentions. That is all that is re- quired. The campaign was originated by Mayor Edward J. Kelly, who de- intends to have 1,000 buildings that he considers danger- ous removed. After hearing the report of Smith on the provisions of the law, the city council gave the campaizn ad- ditional impetus by requesting the health, department to begin making its inspections at once ‘While the actual work of razing the condemned structures will be under the supervision of the fire department it is planned to use relief workers as much as possible. e CRAIG WOMAN DIES Mts.
