CIRCULATION GUARAN' THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICAT AS MAINE GOES the Republicans have won the second Reports indicate they have talking point was made by the Democrats when Alaska gave the New Deal a rousing vote of confidence in re-electing J. Dimond. However, the Republicans are one on the Roosevelt party for Maine has five electoral votes which will count in the final verdict and Alaska has none. But it can not be overlooked that Maine cast its five electoral votes in the Republican column for Hoover in 1932, one of six states only in the entire nation to do so. The others were Connecticut with eight electoral votes, Delaware with three, New Hamp- shire with four, Pennsylvania with 36, and Vermont with 3, or a total for Hoover four years ago of 59 electoral votes compared with 472 for President Roose- velt. As a matter of fact, the trend in the primary today in New York state is much more of a baro- meter of how the election may go in November than is the election of yesterday in Maine. With the ex- ception of 1912 when the famous Teddy Roosevelt and Taft split the Republican party, Maine has always voted in the Republican column. But in New York there is a prize package of 47 electoral votes. Today 15 only that state’s primary but the strength of the two parties in that election will be much more signifi- cant of the November outcome than anything Maine can do about it, except of course, the psychological effect which proved to be uneffectual four years ago, for Maine voted Republican then, although Mr. Ham- ilton of the Republican National committee and his staff doubtless will not call the nation’s attention to that fact. Another primary which may give some idea of what may be expected in November is being held in Michigan today. That state has 19 electoral votes. In 1932 they were cast in the Democratic column. The volume of Democratic and Republican votes in the state's primary today should give an inkling of which way they may be cast in November, although the most optimistic prognosticator is often wrong until the votes are actually counted on election day. The Maine election reveals but one thing, and that is that Maine is voting just about the same as it did in 1932. It is far from a landslide for the Repub- lican party. In fact, with only 12 precincts to be heard from Senator Wallace H. White, Republican, is leading Gov. Louis J. Brann, the Democrat, for the Senatorial seat by only about 5000 votes. As Maine goes, so goes the nation is the tradition. If the rest of the nation goes as Maine did in 1932 and again this year, the Democratic party will carry the nation. But, of course, we'll all wait until the votes are counted. Apparently, psychological advantage. captured Maine. First WHAT THE BONUS WENT FOR Just what did the soldiers’ bonus money go for? It is an interesting question. The government reveals that since the bonus bonds were issued $1,204,689,800 worth have been redeemed for cash, or about 69 per cent. day. But more than a billion dollars is a lot of money to put in circulation. What did it go for? The New York Times makes the following inter- esting study: It must first be observed that the season’s trade recovery is susceptible to ready explana- tion, quite apart from supposed “bonus pur- chases.” But it should also be remembered that no one can surely measure the actual use made of “bonus money” by its beneficiaries. Part of the bond issue would be retained in its original form by the recipients; at the end of last month, 31 per cent had not thus far been redeemed in cash. Considering the period through which the country had lately passed, a considerable part of the amount received would go to payment of debt or would be placed in savings bank. Except for the not unfamiliar instinct of the average citizen to increase his personal expenditure after a sud- den windfall of ready cash, there is no way of Jjudging how much would be thus disposed of and how much spent at once. Country-wide purchases of automobiles during July—perhaps the favorite American objective for the use of sudden wealth—were lately reported by the Census Bureau to have increased nearly 36 per cent over 1935. But in May, before the bonus distribution began, the increase over 1935 ex- ceeded 27 per cent, and comment in the trade has generally been that this summer’s sales did not come up to expectation. Still, in de- fault of any information as to just where the “bonus money” went, and exactly to what extent it influenced business, any one is en- titled to form his own opinion. | westion {cutlook upon life.

Fair Warning suffered harm. There is great danger for them, never- theless, and 1,000 of the 1500 Americans in Spain have been taken out by American or other foreign battleships. The 500 who remain have had ample warning of the risks they will incur by staying on indefinitely. Their decision to stay should absolve the American Government of any further respon- sibility. The U.S.S. Kane was nearly struck by bombs re- cently, indicating how grave a situation may develop if American war vessels remain in Spanish water: Probably the crew of the plane which dropped bom| near the Kane did not know it was an American ve: sel. Certainly the Madrid Government was not de- liberately responsible for the bombing, for it has every reason to desire cordial relations with the United States. The point is that while our vessels remain in Epanish ports there is danger of friction. The course of the Washington Government should be clear. It should warn all Americans in Spain who can be reached, and a day or two later should with- draw its vessels from the vicinity of the hostilities. Diplomatic and consular personnel also should be withdrawn, excepting those actually needed to carry on our official relations with the Spanish Government. Those American citizens who remain in spite of this warning should then be considered to have given | up any right to assistance by the American Govérn- ment. is not willing to intervene to aid one side or the other. This policy is not inconsistent with the proposal made some time ago that a small European squadron be maintained for the protection of Americans abroad. revolution abroad are entitled to their government's ald. Some American vessels might well be kept in readiness to serve this purpose. But after our nation- als have had a reasonable warning, those facilities should be withdrawn. The safety of a few stubborn or reckless Americans abroad is not as important as the preservation of peace between this and other nations. “A Cheering Spectacle” (Emporia Gazette) The rencmination of Senator Joseph Robinson of | Arkansas is a hopeful sign. Robinson defeated a Townsendite by a substantial majority. For any Dem- ocrat to defeat a Townsendite in the South is a cheer- ing spectacle. For Townsend, plus Coughlin, plus the Rev. Gerald Smith, plus Lemke, seems some way to fit into a hill-billy ideal and a hill-billy of the South is just as dumb and menacing to democracy as the controlled Tammanyized moron vote of the great cities of the North. But for a man of Joe Robinson's caliber to defeat a Townsendite—there is more than a cheering spec- tacle; there is hope for the country. No other Demo- crat in the United States Senate today surpasses Joe Robinson in intelligent courage and honest, clear-eyed patriotism. Few equal him.
