SIDELIGHTS Former Editor of The Key Wes Some oddities of the Novensber eice- tion: Ii cost the city of New York $500 to allow Rabbi Nathan Wolf to vote. He is the only voter in the 40th district, which ‘was once a residential section, but is now a factory center whose operatives yote else- where. A special voting machine and three inspectors were employed to record and covnt the Rabbi’s yote. Neither of the three mayoralty candidates carried his own precinct. LaGuardia, the winner, lost his home precinct to O’Brien; O’Brien in turn lost to LaGuardia, while McKee lost also to LaGuardia, pasvernrei “Repeal of the 18th Amendment in 1933” would have been considered an utter- ly foolish slogan a year age, yet it willshort- ly be an accomplished fact, only the formali- ties of convention ratification by four states and the ofticial proclamation being neces- sary to end national prohibition. But the liquor question is not settled so long as some want to drink and others want to prevent them from doing so. =~ General Italo Balbo, who led the Ital- jan air armada in its epochal flight from Rome to Chicago and return, has been de- posed as chief of the Italian air ministry and Mussolini has taken the post himself; in fact, the dictator is almost the whoie eabinet again. It is whispered that Musso- lini was jealous of Balbo’s popularity, so he ' sent him to be governor of an obscure and remote province. ne Tn the election of Fiorello H. La- Guardia as mayor of New York on a fusion tieket, Tammany suffered its first mayor- Alty defeat in 19 years. Four years ago La- Guardia was beaten. ‘by Jimmy Walker by 500,000 votes: “Jimmy cabled congratula- tions from France to, LaGuardia on his’ re- cent victory. The new mayor calls him- self a Republican, but in the past has been Socialistic in his leanings; he was an avia- tion major during the World War; he was born in New York of Italian parentage and will be 51 years old on December 11. Attempting to play the part of his fa- ther in a film being made in a Holiywood studio proved to be too much for Pancho Villa, Jr., 21-year-old son of the late great Mexican bandit. After a short time in the fhovie colony he went haywire, refused to Wear clothes and attacked his mother with & piece of iron. A Los Angeics court de- elared lim insane. a Utah Is credited” With the winning touchdown in the great battle against pro- hibition. The voters of New York have demon- Strated the accuracy of the Literary Digest poll, just as did the electors of the pation in the prohibition potl, Adversity sharpens the wits of man- kind, and it is to be sincerely hoped that the years of depression have taught the people of America that economy is essential . to preservation—in government as well as domestic life. THE HARDIE CASE (Orlando Reporter-Star) Dan Hardie no longer is sheriff of Dade ecunty. Elected by the people ovér a number of aspirants for the job, Sheriff Hardie was removed tate last month by Gov. Dave Sholiz. In Hardie’s o:fice, the governor install- ed the man Hardie defeated in the run-off. The governor gave as his reason for ousting Hardie “malfeasance and mis- feasance” and said he also was.of unsound mind. The ex-sheriff demandcd a hearing and spent Wednesday parading --itnesses before the governor in Tallahas N. B, T. Roney, the Miami Peach hotel | * operator, told the governor business con- ditions were intolerable befor? Hardie be- came sheriff. A psychiatrist added be had examined Hardie and found him to be of sound mind and mentally stable. A former deputy sheriff told the gov- ernor that cheap confidence men and gam- blers had swarmed into Miami since Hardie had gone out of the sheriff’s office. From all of this it looks like the gover- ner has waded knee-deep into a_ pretty muddy situation. To g~* out, he must reinstate Hardie. Tf he duce this, he will.jump from the irying pan into the fire as it is said business interests of Miami wanted Hardie on the re- tired list because he was too strict. Mi- ami is an internationel resort, catering to liberal-minded people who seek as well as sunshine, the variegated pleasures of a life of leisure. If the governor stands pat, the state senate will review the entire matter at the next session of the legislature. Such a spec- tacls would not exactly be a coming out party for the governor. Meanwhile, liberal Miami looks for- ward to a brilliant season. Damen Runyon, worldly-wise expon- ent of all things sporting, in Hearst and other newspapers, has suunded the tom- toms to the thousands of followers of his syndicated column: “Everything is going to be okeh in Miami this winter,” he wrote in explaining the ousting of Sheriff Hardie. What cares Miami if the serate of the hext legislature picks and probes into a year-old case of a sheriff’s deficiencies or efficiency. Miami desires one good season. Give the town a little long-sought prosperity and perhaps they will give Hardie back his job as sheriff. MODERN EDUCATION In a series of articles Dr. Glenn Frank, president of tho University of Wisconsin, discussed some of the laws which he be- lieves underlie a thoroughly modern educa- tion, Coming from such a distinguished source, they are worthy of serious consider- ation. Among the principles he set forth are these: We learn by action :2the~ than by absorption; learning is specific - cher than general; the best things to study are those which are important to our lite and work; we should study the things tl ot will most directly contribute to ovr efficiency and happiness..4 ++ Like many other progressive educators of the present day, Dr. Frank does not be- Jieve.that a cojlege education. is either nec- essary or desirable for everyone. The four years spent in college might often be better employed in gaining practical experience in a workshop or in business. It depends iaigely on the natural talents and incli- rations of a young person whether he should go to coilege. Fe. one who has a studious disposi- tion aud aspires to enter one of the learned p-ofessions, a college education is indispen- sable, of course. For thoze who go to col- lege merely to be able to say that they have gone to college it is a waste of val- uable tire. As Dr. Frank very truthfully says: “We cannot prove that a college education : guarantees a big income, or that it makes us happier men or women. Most of the old ar- gt.cents for college education are ‘in the / ashcan.” Cubans are learning American tricks. Joseph W. Bradham was held up in down- town Havana by four men last week and { robbed of $200. The only difference is that in the United States one lone highway- man would have performed the operation unassisted and considered the haul a mere bagatelle.

In many cases, so long as he is in the limelight and can make his constituents believe they have elected something ex- ceptional as their representative, he is perfectly satisfied. He draws his pay and remains more or less unaffeeted by the depres- sion, A city is usually judged by its | @ppearance.
