'TALKS and TALES With and About CAPITAL’S GUESTS Probably no class of American people has recelved more notice in the press of the country during the past year or two than the farmer, especlally those who make their homes in the great middle west; and while the problem of the agriculturist is unquestionably a perplexing one, it will not be touched on here other than to show how differently the situation is viewed by those familiar ‘with conditions. In an address on transportation be- fore members of the Kiwanis Club at the Hotel Washington, the other day, James C. Davis, director general of the railroad administration, reclte the following to demonstrate how unstrung_the nerves of some Iowa ! farmers had become over the situa- tion. o “The Agriculturists’ Assoclation | fair is the big event each year in| that section” sald Mr. Davis. “As! many as 80,000 people congregate to inspect the exhibits. The past year ‘was no exception, and the big feature entertainment number was a collision hetween two old rallroad locomo- tive: While this antiquated attraction has long since seen its best days, It proved a great drawing card in lowa this year, and farmers from miles around drove into see it. One horny- handed tiller of the sofl, meeting a friend whom he had not seen for months, greeted him with this: 1 “Well, gosh-darn vour old hide, what be you doing driving 200 miles just to see two engines bump, with ttmes as they be?" “Two hundred miles!” snorted back the other. “Why, Hank, the way I feel I'd drive ten hundred miles to see hell battered out of anything! *x ok kX Seated m: hls rSoms at the same hotel, Rabbi Simon Glazer of the Great Synagogue, New York, for many years head of the United Syna- gogues of Greater Kansas City, laughed outright when asked if the condition of the midwestern farmer | was as serious as purported. “My boy,” sald Dr. Glazer, as he settled in his chair, “I am as famliliar with the state of Kansas as you are with your home town and let me tell you that as a whole there is not a happler, more industrious, more prosperous set of people in the United States than there is in that great state, and espeelally the farmer. “I have been in every nook and corner of the commonwealth and feel it worth considerable travel to take breakfast at the home of the average Kansas farmer. No, desplte a few setbacks to crops and low prices, the Kansas farmer—and I will_go farther and say the farmers of Iowa, Nebraska and Missouri— are far from crying ‘wolf.' as some would have you belleve. They wear better clothes, drive more automo- biles and_eat better food than mil- lions in the cities, and when you are told otherwise just wink your off eye." ’ Rabbi Glazer attributes these con- ditions to the dry state of Kansas and, after ridiculing the idea that prohibition was becoming a dead issue in America, pald a great trib- ute to Senator Curtls of the Sun- nower state, who, he said, alone was responsible for its present dry con- dition. “Back in the old days this cour- &geous man, then attorney general, practically ' single-handed, ~ wiped | saloons out of Topeka, and In four years made Kansas dry. He never let | up, and today the state is truly bone- . dry. He is one of our greatest Ameri- | cans, and if he would consent to run for the vice presidency would ake the republican party unbeatable. The rabbl resents any attempt to in- clude the usage of sacramental wines in arguments against prohibition, and says that according to the signed statement of Prohibition Director Doolittle of Kansas only fifty galions of wine were used for sacramental purposes by the 25,000 Jewish people of Kansas during three and a half years. Rabbi Glazer is an ardent admirer of President Coolidge, and predicts that 80 per cent of the women of the country, irrespective of party affilia- tions, Wil vote the republican ticket. * % % x When you've devoted more than thirty years of your life to the news- ' Ppaper profession, mastered all the fine points, cultivated a wide acquaintance among the biggest, political men of the country, and on the day many of them are to assemble in meeting you | start out to renew old friendships, only to be struck down by a taxicab and landed in a hospital, is rather tough sledding, what? That was the unpleasant experience | last Monday night of Harry Wilson Walker, veteran political writer for several 'St. Louls, New York and Chi- cago papers. Intimate with many big democrats of New York, Harry was on his way to the Lee House to KeeD an engage- ment with Dan Ryan, secretary of Tammy Hall, when at Thomas Circle he was run’ down by a southbound taxicab. The injured writer was rushed to George Washington Hos. pital, where it was found that his right ankle was fractured and his| left leg badly lacerated. the hos- | pital last night, Mrs. ker said she expected to remove her husband to_their home today. There are few notables in either of the two great parties who are not acquainted with Harry Walker, and many were the inquirles made for him at the democratic committee meeting earller in the week. No re- port of the accident had reached his friends at the time, and the supposi- tion was that he had returned to New York. * ok ok % And speaking of luck. With the entire world on edge and nobody quite certain of what the morrow has in store, it's rather refreshing to hear of a simple little movement * started for no other reason than to bring good luck and prosperity to all peoples of the world. January 5, a certain well known Army officer In New York, evidently imbued with the spirit of the joyous season, started on its way a “Let's Go Smiling Through 1924" campaign, Wwhich, judged by its spread today, will encircle the globe in very short order. Its exceptional feature is that it costs those participating absolutely nothing more than a kindly thought, one toward the other, and in this money-mad age that at'least makes it distinctive. Dropping into the Lee House, Wil- liam F. Shanahan, resident manager, was found busily fulfilling require- ments <vecifled in the following in- structions Copy wais and send it to nthe peo- ple whom you wish good luck. The chain was started by an American Army ofticer and should go around the world three times. Do not break the chain,. for who ever does will have bad fuck.

With $90,837 raised and a trifle over $9,000 yet to be- raised, the 150 cam- paign workers of St. Martin's parish for a new parochlal school are mak- Ing their last-day spurt to “go over tie top” at the rally tonight, to which all parishioners have been invited.

Owen of this city, who has served as an engineer in the of- for more than twenty-three years, reached the age of seventy years to- day. He would have been placed on the clvil service retired list under the law had not the Secretary of War approved the recommendation of Maj. Gen. L. H.

A dream of engineers that steam power may be obtained from the heated center of the earth by the boring of a deep shaft was shuttered by thé Interfor Department today, when the government agency an- nounced that the Idea is not practi- cable at the present time. The principal difficulty, according to government experts, is not the cost of penetrating to a depth of five miles or more, but the fact that the amount of heat that can be derived from hot rock 18 not proportional to its tem- perature, but s limited by the con- ductivity of the rock. Charles Parsons, inventor of the steam tur- bine, had broached the idea that such power development was possible, but {T. T. Read of the Interior Depart- ment thinks other®ise. s Another important phase of such ian engineering project Is that, al- though the heat might be available | five miles below the surface of the ground, there is a great problem con- nected with getting it to the surface without losing most of it on the way. The department suggests that a shaft five miles deep would cost $5,000,000. or more to dig, based on the cost of deep coal mines. The deepest mine in the world is in Bra- zil, 6,726 feet below the surface, and i cooled by dried air so the men can work in reasonable comfort at this great depth—more than a mile below sea level, WILL ELECT DIRECTORS.

Berryman, head of the art department of The Star, called the cartoon the sixteen-inch gun of the newspaper, in a discussion of the technique of. newspaper cartooning befors the evening class In journalism at George Washington University yesterday afternoon. Mr. Ber: nan told of the advantage that the cartoon had through its first- page position, and the fact that as a rule it was unon some subject in the day's news of immediate intevest. He said that artists wh, engaged in such work should possess a strong interest in politics, o that the ex- pression of ideas on nublic life would come naturally. It was their practi he sald, to read the papers with sreat | care. The spcaker mentioned cartoons vhich were begun and unfinished be- use of changes in the news; the alue of keeping collections of old rtoons for study, just as one would consult a library,' and the necessity for keepipg ideas in reserve for emergencies, when current affairs did not for the moment lend themselves to _the artist’'s pen.
