that unless Long is nominated they will bolt the ticket.
The Reed men are retaliating vigorously, and the
campaign that is now coming to a close there is the
warmest that has stirred the aristocracy of Old Mis
boo since Claiborne Jackson's time. Tennessee, too,
is enduring one of the most interesting preliminary
contests exhibited in many years. Senator McXel

Adam Breede: The result of the

I The two campaigns required of the
semblance of integrity, support the growing charge
of pure commercialism. They give the championship
to the team with the longer purse, and make dollars
erene for renomination, while Simon D. Fess appears rather than managerial ability the measure of sue-
to be assured of the republican chance to oppose the
democratic nominee. In whatever way the glance is
directed, signs of the strife between the Wilson and
anti-Wilson groups is seen. November, 1922, is to
be the curtain raiser for June, 1924, and the con
trol of congress is of less immediate importance to
the sachems than control of the convention which
will name the party's leader in the next presidential
race. That is why the game is worth watching.

It may or may not make any difference to Omaha
what the New York managers are planning for the
coming season. Under some contingencies, however-
it is possible that those of us who like to gather at the
Brandeis from time to time will have the pleasure
of seeing some worth while pieces enacted there,
and by really good companies.
When "Gus" Thomas was installed as executive

point is that Mr. Thomas is expected to do a little
something for the speaking stage along the lines Will
Hays is working on with the movies. If this is true,
the new executive has work ahead.
More to the point is the news that Al H. Wood
frankly told a lot of actors the other day that salaries
would have to come down to a plana where activity
at the theater would again be possible, fsmcy figures
based on war inflation can not be sustained. Mr.
Wood, as well as some others, hopes to be able to send
a few companies on tour, but can not do so unless
the ventures can be made to pay expenses, and only
a few of them will with salaries at the peak. The
answer is yet to come.
Some softening is noted in railroad fares, which
will enable companies to make the jumps lots cheaper
than of late, and this too is in favor of the outlying
theaters. However, it is too early to get excited
about the prospects. , October, November and De
cember will tell the tale, but we do want to remind the
managers that Patricia O'Brien was right when she
said, "It's always a bad season for a bad show."

THE BOON OF ICING.
Food was first put up in tins to meet the need of
the forty-niners for a compact diet that would not
spoil. Today the world could scarcely do without it.
Much less could it carry on without the process of
refrigeration.
The cold storage system which preserves perish
able products receives more brickbats than boquets
because of the popular idea that speculation plays
too large a part in what is strictly speaking a pub
lic utility. Unquestionably there are profits there
are losses, too but the service is a very necessary
one.
R M. Birdsall, an aged produce merchant of
Chicago, who is credited with the invention of the
cold storage system, has just died. If the claim is
correct that he invented the railway refrigerator car,
all praise be tt him. Distant regions that now pros
per by the production of fruit and vegetables could
never have been developed without some such system
of keeping them fresh in transit Meat that now
hangs without spoiling in the coolers of the great
packing houses would have had to be secured from

Probably not For one thing, the world today
stubbornly refuses to sneeze when dts great ones take
snuff. For another, the British royal pair are re

Prince Edward introduced something new in
dress. His royal daughter-in-law strives to make
fashionable a sort of music that has been discarded.
There is no novelty in that to catch the vulgar fancy.
The only way she can send jazz to the block is to
sponsor something new.
