The White House pigture theater, |operating on Monday and Thursday nights, is being turned laboratory of deep thought on screen topics instead of a place where the President can sit down in peace and is a into a | lexcept what is being shown on the ‘I(‘l‘el‘n. The talkies have played a sad trick on the President of these United Btates. With every personage in the screen plays talking, hollering and singing, it seems imposaible, too, for | the President to take a quiet snooze | while he's undergoing visual treat- | ment. Time was when anybody, a little tired and craving rest, could sit himself down in a soft theater seat and go to sleep while the silent pictures soared their deeds. Now talk all the time and such somnolent recreation is woefully dis- turbed. It is as if one were trying to snore in a boiler factory. It simply |can't be done. The President evi- dently has found that out. Unfortunately it is impossible to give the President any sound advice on this Issue. Perhaps the Senate, in its wisdom, could proffer the advice. | | | they UNDERWORLD SPIES Anything that hurts the nefarious operatione of the underworld helps society.

Yesterday | CITATIONS FOR COPS WHO EARN THEM | Knowing his duty and doing it is | one of the cardinal virtues of a good | Policéman. Most of them follow this | principle day in and day out and are not lauded in song and story. But should he set up whereby big ¢i postal workers llarger wage than the same workers would in the small towns, seems sound. No other industry is operated on auch a standardized plan as the postal de- ! partment. Considerable surprise has resulted | from the belief of President Hoover that the cost of | should be included giving the service. For years there has been no such calculation; build- new buildings in the cost of |ings needed were put up as a result {of congressional appropriations |therefore, and then not a cent charg- ed to the operation of the depart- | ment. There is sound reasoning, too. that this should be the governmental policy. Certainly if the government begins adding capital expenditures to the cost of operating the depart. ment the cost of the mails will al- ways be high. as improved facilities |are constantly needed. ONE VIEW ENOUGH Mayor Paonessa, making a person- al trip to the Black Rock bridge in company with a lawyer, did not look at the dilapidated structure long before concluding tnat the thing needed fixingk and that the sidewalks needed to bé smoothed out. In announcing that he weuld push improvements the mayer has made a very popular move. there are times when a particular | gallant effort in behalf of the public ‘ and public order deserves special commendation. There is no reason | why the through the i board should not award recognition such city police special under circum- mances The plan to award an insignia for | such service is commendable. There should be no hesitancy about it. Po- | licemen who earn and receive such recognition will be proud of it and the city which bestowed 4 will be keenly alert to continue serving the public in the manner that earn ed the award.

Horace Donivan THE MINSTREL By Stephen Leacock The other day I went to dine in a restaurant where they had what is called a cabaret show during the dinner. In the course of this 'show & black-faced comedian leaped on te the little stage and shouted that he had lost his honey, lost his honey, and wanted to be taken back to Alabama. 1 couldn’t see the man personally. But I wrote him a note. I said, “My dear sir, T gather that you want to get back to Alabama. I am all for it. You ought to be in Alabama. Let me know when you can start and T will make an appeal to the public for funds. You'll go al right.” Take the case of Virginia. Again and again 1 have heard cabaret singers plaintively begging to bz “carried back to old Virginny.' Carried back, you nolice in this case. They have got so lazy and so enervated living up North, that they walk or even use the cars. But it seems that it's not merely Alabama and Virginia.

It ap pears that if they | their O1d Kentucky Home they will sing one song and then it will be good night. That's fair enough. Most distressing of all perhaps is the case of the Scotch. These people are really suffering. 1 attended the other night a Scotilsh concert at which a singer, a responsible person of adult years. asserted fhat Max- wellton braes had such an attrac- tion for him, coupled with the name of a Miss Laurie, that if he could | enly get back into one of these braes |he would lic down and die. The | opportunity here is too good to be lost. Somebody ought to take that man over to Scotland, place him face down in a brae, and challenge him to live up to his promise.
