Alma Mater js the name of the gov- ethment-controlled newspaper in Havana. Let’ trust this mother will remain benign, and in the interest of the people. The writer has at least something in common with O. O. MeIntyre—the mat- ter of mixing up identities. He invariably confuses Upton Sinclair with Sinclair Lewis. Periods of time have been designated as stone age, bronze age, iron age. Pre-j sumably the age throuch which we are now passing is the crazy age—at least politically. A newspaper is a strictly private en- terprise and the publishers have a right to accept or reject any or all advertisements submitted for publication. Try us and see if we reject any advertisements. While in the wishing mood we pre- sume to wish that Administrator Stone may be endowed with the gift for which King Midas was renowned. we trust that our bread may not be turned into stone. The familiar cherchez la femme of the French police is an injunction that applies everywhere. Dillinger was “fingered” by a woman in red, and now Homer Van Meter met his fate by his at- tachment for Marie “Mickey” Conforti. Alphonse Brengard, three hours be- fore being electrocuted for murder, was re- H prieved for a week by Governor Lehman j of New York. When informed of the gov- ernor’s action, the condemned man glee- fully exclaimed: “I'm tickled to death.” “That would be easier than passing out via “characterizes Los Angelés asthe the chair.

The spokesman for the people is the press. It is through the columns of the press that the people speak. this opinion and interprets need run blindly. it correctly cupations do, but there is such a thing as accustomed to sifting press comment know this opinion. Today, the composite opinion of the public, as expressed through the press, is that President Roosevelt, sincere and courageous as he is, is listening to some bad advice. advice remains to be demonstrated. The Washington Star, decidedly friendly — to- ward the New Deal and known as “slow to condemn,” the general trend of opinion torial that said, in part: “President Roosevelt—whether he knows it or not, whether he likes it or not, and whether he intends it or not—is. by his in tablished business life of the nation wishes to lead into happier days. “Whatever his motives and whatever his ultimate goal, he cannot be from large responsibility for the present he ; than any other factor in the equation of | our national depression.” With all respect to those who are; recognized as “close to the President,” it thus interpreted by the conservative pre visers. American industry is seriously turbed. How much reason it has to be thus disturbed is open to dispute, but the fact that industry fears partures from tested practices should com- way from the President down.
