All four-socialist can- didates are from Pennsylvania, which also offers one. democratic aspirant. The most prominent of the new women candidates for congress is Judge Florence E. Allen, who has been a justice of the Ohio Supreme Court for 11 years, and is a democrat. Mrs, Ruth Bryan Owen of Florida, daughter of William Jennings Bryan, was defeated for the democratic nomination in her district in the recent primary, although she is conceded to be one of the ablest women eyer,to serve-in' congress. It is said that prohibition was a factor in her defeat, her opponent being an avowed “wet,” while Mrs. Owen leaned toward the “diy’’ side. It may be recalled that Miss Jeanette Rankin of Montana, the first woman ever to be elected to congress, served only one term, 1917-1919, being defeated for re- election largely because of her opposition to the entry of the United States into the World War. She, too, was an exceptionally brilliant woman, but her pacifist tendencies at a time when patriotism ran high caused. her undoing. OHIO FOR ROOSEVELT o Ohio, which is one of the doubtful states, seems to be swinging into the Roose- velt column. : The Cineinnati Inquirer, which is tak- ing a poll of that state, and whose polls are generally reliable, is showing a vote of about two to.one in favor of Roosevelt, in the second week of voting. The vote has been taken mainly’ in the neighborhood of Cincinnati, but it must be remembered that this city is naturally re- publican, as are the outlying districts, and in a special election last spring at a time when the democrats were generally vic- torious, this same section elected a repub- lican to sueceed the late Nicholas Long- worth by a norma! republican majority. In that election the republican candi- date was a man of unusual popularity, which may have helped to prevent a voting demonstration against the administration. But the fact remains that Roosevelt is leading Hoover in the Cincinnati sections of Ohio. THRIFT AND CRIME Encouragement of thrift as a means of reducing crime is suggested by a_ well- known publicist, who declares that ex- travagant habits in.many cases are the direct cause of banditry. é Aside from financial gains possible through economy and thrift, the habit of saving has a stabilizing effect upon one’s character. The person who is laying aside something each week or each month with the idea of ultimately securing financial in- dependence is more dependable than one who spends his money as fast or faster than he makes it. Many who have resorted to dishonesty in order to obtain needed funds quickly are those who have been first led into extrava- gant living. Allowing themselves to in- duige in luxuries in excess of what their earnings warrant, they more easily yield to temptation to dishonesty in ‘its various forms. shady Habits of thrift should be inculcated Senator } Of the nine new, aspirants, | four are democrats, four are socialists, and | “Balancing an Eel on the End, of ils Nose” ecoone cecccccrccccccecccsvccscoencacsessooecooece Daily Cross-word Puzzle ecoocece iy.
