CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION IMPATIENT REPUBLICANS. The election is a year away, but the attack of the| Republicans on the New Deal is in full ery, for which | the Democrats are grateful in that it gives the Roose- welt party ample opportunity to get the lay of the land and see in just what quarters the G. O. P. ex- pects to center the political assault. The impatience of the Republicans to get started ‘reveals at the outset their weakness, for as Louis ‘McHenry Howe, the President’s Secretary, points ,out, their ammunition will be gone by the time it really counts. Interviewed recently by Bess Furman | for the Associated Press, Secretary Howe, who has ‘been confined to a hospital for some time, drew this | interesting word pifture which gives an insight into !the theory back of the New Deal and the fallacy ol’i the G. O. P. attack: | No one can forecast yet anything what lines the campaign will take. There is a dim possibility, not a probabil- ity, of independent tickets. . If there should be a real war, the issues would be entirely different from those at present in sight. There are. possibilities the campaign may develop into an effort of the Democrats to catch the liberal-thinking Republicans and an effort on the part of Republicans to catch the conservative Democrats. The campaign next year will see a far more intelligent use of the radio. ‘There’ll be less spellbinding, less soap-box stuff. The speeches will be comparatively few and unimportant. There’ll be more.intention on both sides to keep the platforms down to what they really intend to do. You see, the women have, in the last eight years come a long way toward “debunking” political platforms through their habit of in- sisting that every kind word lightly thrown out to catch a few votes, embodies a promise which must be lived up to. It has been a good thing in reducing the length of our platforms from columns almost to inches, and I think this RN R Ny 2 like ear’s platforms will be even more concise n both sides. There'll be much effort really to explain things on both sides. Torchlight parades once sufficed to settle issues. But now we have women voters, and women have an insatiable curiosity. What has been done and why will figure prominently All the old issues have fallen down. Pro- hibition is cut of the way, thank heavc Tariff has simmered down to a compromise, both parties taking about the same attitude. State rights—the Republicans are try::g to steal our clothes on that issue! But go back through the Prc.ident's speeches, and you will see that he has preach- ed a new doctrine in the relation of a gov- erment to its people. Fifty years from now you'll find it in the history books. Look it up. I won't be here. 1 am asking you—because you are out and about, and I have been held in—if it isn't true as so many of my callers tell me—that the great mass of the people have really taken an interest in Government such as they never had before, and if it is not far more generally realized that so far as restricting liberties is concerned, that, as a matter of fact, personal liberty of our citizens as civilization advances are taken away more and more at every turn? Red and green lights at every corner—Lord bless you, you can't even sing in the bath tub in an apartment house without running the risk of a jail sentence . There is not much in our lives but what is bound by law. If we take away from the strong man the right to hit the little man over the head with a club, is that too, great curtailment of liberty? We must assure the little man’s right not to be clubbed. The Government owes, not a liv- ing, but equal right to making a living. The issue is going to be whether this Administration is doing that wisely or not. To me the Republicans are too eager in their efforts to try to find an issue that will stick. This is not the time to fly kites of that kind so long before election. We are very grateful to them, because it gives us ample warning and chance to prepare on all arguments in rebuttal, and they have started nothing disturbing yet. The weakness of the present Republican management has been its disposition to shoot off all its fireworks now instead of waiting for the campaign. That reminds me of the boy who gets so eager, that he just has to buy a giant firecracker three days before the Fourth of July, and then on the night of the third he simply can't stand it any longer, and gets up and fires it off. There will be no failure on our part to reply to these various points the Republicans are agitating so early, but we will wait near enough te election, so that the voters will re- member, before we undertake any extensive answering. y o CONSTITUTION WAVING. The old-time politician used to say that if you had a good platform but a poor candidate the thing to do | was to make much of the platform, and if you had a poor platform and a good candidate you should make capital of the candidate. Lastly, if you had both a poor candidate and a weak platform, the best plan was to wave the Constitution with great gusto. Which may give an ankling of why there is so much Con- stitution shouting on the part of the Republicans at the present time. We suppose when Selassie goes out to lead his | troops the boy'll sing, “Haile, Haile, the gang's all here, what the duce do we care.” — (Ohio State Journal.)

Dautrick on Distin “The stars incline Horoscope but do not compel” THURSDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1935 Unfavorable planetary influences | are active today after the early morning, according to astrology. While there is a good sign for those | who sign important papers, the judg- | ment should not be too implicitly | trusted. Good news of some sort is forecast | as the month closes. The public press | will profit throligh increased inter-| est in international affairs. | Women now come under a rule of the stars which presages important | duties in the way of rehabilitating members of their families. Men will | depend greatly upon feminine cour- | age and resourcefulness. For the young bride promises are seen in the stars. There are to ke new opportunities in strange voca- 'tions. Chemists and engineers will profit. : el ® Physicians will meet with anxieties | | rezarding hospitals and public in-| ctitutions which need financial aid. | The winter will bring added work for | surgeons and nurses, it is forecast. | Schools and colleges will benefit through preparing students for vari- ous practical callings. The West will be especially concerned with ed- ucational problems. Under this rule of the stars both men and women should discipline themselves by throwing off habits of thought and action. Much lazines and lack cf focus in effort are fore- told. Rio de Janeiro next month will come under planetary influences that disturb certain lines of business. Dis- ruption of commerce is presagzed for a brief time. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of possible anxicty caused by treachery or dis- leyalty. Subjects of this sign should be constantly on guard. i Children born on this day probably | will be restless and difficult to man-| age, but they have possibilities of high achievement.
