It was their night to crow, and they crowed at a pitch to which they had earned every right at the Territorial and national ballot boxes. Victory celebrations—regardless of which party it is that is celebrating — have a tendency toward exuberant exaggeration and mild outbursts of hysteria. Perhaps this may explain the startling prophecy by the chief speakers of the evening, Delegate E. L. Bartlett, that the two-party system in the United States has all but become extinct. Delegate Bartlett declared flatly that “the young- est person in this room, the youngest person who may be listening over the radio, will never live to see a Republican administration again.” ‘The speaker qualified this prediction “in only one degree: through some chain of circumstances not now foreseeable, similar, perhaps, to 1946, there could be possibly in the years to come a single Republican administration, but no more.” In the wake of an upset such as his party achieved nationally and in Alaska within the last 60 days, the Delegate must be permitted his excursion into the realm of prognostication. Victory is a heady brew, often stimulating a giddy sense of infallibility. In his other pronouncements, Delegate Bartlett veered nearer to the cold facts by which victories must be appraised as to whether they were just and deserved. He laid down a five-point program of develop- ment of Alaska to which, he stated, the new Demo- cratic regime, from President Truman down through | the ranks, is committed. Without exception, the program is that. which has | —(Bellingham Herald).

But a pickpocket who recently tried to ply his trade in a downtown Cincinnati store is likely to amend the old quotation. He knows from experience that “hell hath no fury like a woman"— scorned or not! Women shoppers who detected the thief in action surrounded him and held him in a corner until police arrived.

S. retail buying, but they set styles and quality standards as well. They have been known to clear undesirables from certain communities with an efficiency and a promptness that ordinary enforcement agencies might well emulate. Many of the great social reforms, not only in America but in other less advanced lands, are traceable to the female of the species. | The ladies — Lord love ’em — have their lovely hands in all sorts of undertakings, from the driving of taxis to the directing of large industrial enter- prises. They are proving quite as capable as men in most fields, and in others are admittedly more capable. Yet — fortunately — they still find time for their household duties, remembering perhaps another ven- erable adage — the one to the effect that “the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.” According to the Department of Commerce, women spend 78 per cent more on clothing than men —and look at least 100 per cent better, we must admit. “le washin 'o" Note—It was Slaughter who was m s” Ernst old the Small g | 12 ly responsible for farmers’ fail- Buciness Committee.

LOBBYING IN SECRET | Ex-Congressman Roger Slaugh-| ter, of Kansas City, now indict- ed for failing to register as a Icbbyist, has concocted a legal toe- stubber which he will take to the Court of Appeals. He claims that lobbying was' part of his legal work and that a lawyer’s service for his client is privileged. If the Kansas City €x-Congressman gets by on this one, lawyers will automatically be exempt from the Ilobbying laws. There's nothing illegal about lobbying providing it is done in the open. That is the reason for the Lobbying Act, which requires lobbyists to register with Congress, telling who they're working for and how much they're paid. | the United States.” At the same time, declared Ernst, the “mandate” of the Commerce Department should be rewritten by Ccngress to make that depart- ment the servant of 500,000 small free enterprises instead of the ser- vant of 400 big concerns “that control one-half of the resources of Ernst contended that the dis- membering of monopolies was not only good democrary, but good business for everybody, including the big firms. e cited innumerable studies, showing that the prime mouive behind a monopoly was power, not profits.
