It seems to be a rule of politfcs that the politician who admits his falli- bility has committed political suicide. The whole world may know that he has made an egregious mistake. He himself must never admit it. In 192S there was the famous promise of the two-car garage, the chicken In every pot. Has the maker of those promises ever acknowledged his mistake? You may read every line the president has written or spoken and never an admission of that error will be founL when the panic came there was the assurance that business was still sound; pros - perity just around the corner. Has Mr Hoover acknowledged that mis- take? Never by as much as a nod. There was the farm board, an eco- nomic experiment. Kolelv on the re- proved disastrou3 al5ke to the farm. erg d , th national treasury. The nearest the president has come to ac- knowledging that mistake was when, as a matter of political necessity, he promised the Iowa farmers that he wouldn't do it again. Aside from this minor concession, the president makes uig campajgn Dn the thesis that he j3 incapable of being wrong about anvthine lt isn.t president Hoover alone wno makes the bluff of infallibility. There is reason to believe that the peopie demand and expect infallibil- nv fhotr oniirintf.c- an,i what they demand and expect, the candi - dates, of course, must appear to give them. If this w'ere not the case tne candidatorial claim to infallibility wouid hardlv be so universal I Yet how refreshing it is to find a public official, in this case the sen- ator from xew Mexico, acknowledg- jng a great mistake. Senator Cutting tells the people how happily and heartily he advised them four years &io to elect President Hoover. Then he tells them with equal candor how terribly mistaken he now believes himself to have been. Senator Borah made the same mistake; but sulks on t0 Idaho making his acknowledg- ment brudgingly or not at all. Is it possible that a public should not j think better of a Cutting who makes ja ciean breast of it than of a Borah who locks up his bitterness in the boiling cauldron of his breast? it js a question whether the people, if given a chance, would not prove their nnnrpfiatinn of the frankness that admita mistakes, abandonine the bombastic claim of infallibility.

Young, outstandingly the ablest and wisest big business . man in America, an employe or tne r - i tt.i.i I lUfc'UKiai niaiiit i-iti uiiy W1UIC IVl advice as to how he rhould vote. Mr. Youne answered "I do not think that you should ask any officer of the General Electric company how you should vote or accept their advice If they were so unwise as to volunteer it, which I am thankful to say they have never done. What we need in this country, and in this election par ticularly, are votes reflecting the views of the voters free from the coercion of fear or favor." To a stockholder in the same giant corporation, replying to a similar re- Quest, Young Wrote: "I hope you will vote as your iTit.M HirpnrA Ann vniir intuitions. " .-hirh T T9 lie onna v hlirh rile- tate. The General Electric corn- pany can succeed only when, as, and if, the United States suc ceeds, so you will be serving your own and your country's in terests best by thinking of your country first." A third letter from Young is in rply to an inquiry from the Tax- payers' union. Ho was asked if "radi- cals will have the greatest influence" with Governor Roosevelt, if he is elected president, and he believed that Roosevelt "has in mind a pro- gram of private property confisca tion." This is his answer: "I have no thought that Mr. Roosevelt is the ki?d of man who will be subject to 'influence either of individuals or of groups, conservative or radical, if I did, I would not support him for president. "I believe him to be a man of sound intelligence, fine intui tions, deep sympathies, adequate understanding, and real inde pendence. "Because I think he has these qualifications, I have no thought that he will resort to any pro gram of confiscation on the one side or that he will be oblivious to the needs of masses of hu man beings on the other. "It will be easy to say that that sentence is a straddling one but the fact is you know, that with the great resources of this nation properly organized and handled, there is no reason why individuals should not be free from want and private property protected." Here in these letters is revealed a big business man who is really big, and really wise. How high, he looms above others who crack the whip of fear, who seek by coercion or intimidation to rob American citizens of the un trammelled use of their most prec ious birthright the freeman's bal lot! Think of your country first. What is good for the country is good for the General Electric company. And what the country needs at this time lis for president a leader "of sound I intelligence, fine intuitions, deep I sympathies, adequate understanding and real independence." What is re- quired is a policy and a program un der which protection can be assured to private property while at the same time the masses of the people are in- lsured against want That is what Owen D. Youne be- lieves. Because he believes it heis supporting Franklin D. Roosevelt for nersident. on the platform adopted hv thn tlpmnrratio. national ennven. -World-Herald. :o:- IN THE HOUSE OF HIS FRIENDS When President Hoover tried to make the country believe, in his speech at New York, that a demo cratic victory "would destroy the very foundations of our American system" he dealt his own candidacy the severest blow it has suffered in this campaign Mis fry of alarm, that his own defeat would mean that "the grass will grow in streets of a hundred cities, a thousand towns, the weeds iU overrun a million farms," was unworthy any president of the United States. i iTlrlETTTl vwtn utterances sura as these Mr Hoover throws away not only all dig- nity but all restraint. It is a sight to make the judicious grieve Of all men in this republic, its president should be the very last to attempt to arouse panic on top o J distress; to imperil the stability of his country in the vain hope of fur thering his own ambition. And con- siderlng the record and results of hi3 Ill-fated administration, Herbert Hoover should be of all president the last to raise the cry of distress and crack the whip of fear against an opposing candidate. It is significant of the resentment his course has aroused that no less an institution than the National City Bank of New York hastened, imme jdiately following his speech, to speak a sanely reassuring word. Its rebuke to Mr. Hoover is unmistakable. It says there Is no basis for anxiety. Both parties stand for sound prin ment. Economic panaceas of un- sound character have found but lit tle support. Nor is the National City bank '"" 3 . lcJUUIClllU6 alarm anneal to which his ramnslen r has Sunk. -i:, un tne very aay mat jut.

"Business Week" disclaimed the "in r-s i v 1 1 1 mm ;,i-;,:ii-l THE PUBLIC should be prudent in seeking relief from pain. Take nothing which does not have the approval of the medical profession. BAYER ASPIRIN win never do you any harm, and almost always brings the desired relief. But remember that the high medical endorsement, given Bayer Aspirin does not apply te all tablets for relief of pain, THE DOCTOR is careful to specify Bayer Aspirin for these important reasons: It has no injurious ingredients. No coarse particles to irritate throat or stomach. Nothing to upset the system. Not even any disagreeable taste. The Bayer process insures a pure, uniform product. INSIST on the tablet yen know to be safe. And the one that has sped. Bayer tablets dissolve so quickly, you get immediate relief from your headache, neuralgia, or other pain. (BAYER) theory that the election would have any adverse effect on business con ditions. Prof. Irving Fisher, a strong Hoo ver supporter, declared that "wheth er Roosevelt or Hoover is elected, America will continue to climb out of the depression." And the Commercial and Finan cial Chronicle, the foremost organ of finance in the United States, said: "Many of the president's most ardent supporters seek to instill a feeling of fear in the mind3 of the voters. For ourselves we have no patience with tactics of this kind. Without wishing to exprss a preference for either one of the two candidates (and the editor of this paper is not yet entirely clear as to how he shall cast his personal vote), we have no hesitation in saying that things will go on pretty much the same whichever can didate is elected, and w still be lieve that things will improve after the election, whatever the outcome." These are the responsible voices of American business and industry. They refuse to throw in with the discreditable panic campaign or to be affected by it. They are not will- ing to attempt to scuttle the ship merely because they cannot have their own pilot, iney put tneir country above their party, and pur- pose to continue the hard battle for recovery whether Hoover or Roose velt is the next president. It is too bad that Mr. Hoover, be fore engaging on his last despearte barnstorming effort, did not stop to learn a lesson from the wisest of his supporters. World-Herald. :o: A WOMAN CABINET OFFICER? The attitudes of President Hoo- . ver and Gov. Franklin u.

In fact, she has been talked of a3 the Secretary of Labor if Mr. Roosevelt gains the presidential position. With the importance, of women In politics growing rapidly, there is no reason why a woman Secretary of Labor or a woman secretary of some thing else should not be acceptable to all concerned, should the next President make such an appoint ment. :o: ROOSEVELT'S ENEMIES As in the case of the great Gro- ver Cleveland, many persons wno m the beginning could not find it in their hearts to love Franklin D.
