Still determined to have the last word, we suppose. :o: It is strange how a man's ability to take a drink or leave it alone r.ever appeals to him as a conver sational topic until after the third highball. :o: The hot sunshiny days that have passed since the national conven tions seem to have dried out the : wet planks in all the party platforms considerably. A Kansas City saxophone player was fined for breaking the speed limit on the way to a dance, which somewhat resembles sending Capone to Atlanta for. tax trouble. :o: One of the exhibits at the world's fair in Chicago is to be a model school, and promises to be quite a novelty in that city. One of it3 fea tures, we are told, is that the teach ers are paid their salaries regularly in cash. :o: It is now reported that "Jarring Jim" Bausch will make a trip to Australia. After watching the big Kan.-an heave his bulk over the bar at 12 feet 2 inches in the decathlon pole vault at the Olympic games, the Australians were seized with an ir resistible desire to take Jim along home with them to show the kan garoos what was being done in other rlaces.

He has had Mayor Walker's defense. He has given both men opportunity to add to their first statements. He holds a hearing. And he knows well that whether he removes the mayor of New York City or refuses to re ntove him, the tides of attack and abure will be unleashed. If Mr. Roosevelt does not remove Mayer Walker, the republican cam paign will ring from now until No vember with the cry of "Tammany." It is not quite fair. No one who is informed thinks Tammany one whit worse than the Republican machine in Philadelphia. But Governor I'in- chot is not on a hot scat with the necessity of deciding whether to re move Philadelphia's mayor. Chicago would be startled and abashed if it were even suggested that New York, under Tammany is as lawless and graft-ridden as Chicago. But Presi dent Hoover never had to decide whether to remove from office Eig Bill Thompson. He did not even suf fer much when his own attorney gen eral had approved a bargain with Al Capone for a light sentence. For the bargain was exposed and didn't go through. If Mr. Roosevelt does remove May or Walker, his republican opponents will say it was done for "politics" and entities him to no credit, while they will be chuckling with the thought that Tammany may try to take New York state from him. It is an ugly job. And it is ugly because there is not after all a hard and fast line, a black and white case. Tho Sc-abury documents are not enough to convict Mayor Walker in court of anything criminal. The de cision after all nas to De maae Dy the governor of New i ork whether the evidence calls for the removal of New York's mayor. There is only one thing for Gov ernor Roosevelt to do. That is to decide as governor of New York without regard to the national cam paign. Those dose to him, even po litical writers who have been covert ly attacking him. seem to agree that Mr. Rooseveit will do Just that. It is reassuring, with all the desperate politics that is being played thi3 year, that there is such general testimony to Mr. Roosevelt's integrity. He has a hard job, but he has the guiding thought that whereas the presidency is a matter of four or eight years, a man must live with himself as long as he lives. Milwaukee Journal. :-o: If it is true, as economists warn us. that government finances are no whit different from personal finances, then we're afraid that when the gov ernment figures t:p its next year's revenue from taxes, it's going to be disappointed, not only at the amount of cake it can eat, and also the amount of cake it will have left when nishes eating. :o: From the campaign speeches, it is already apparent that the nation is .certainly going to be saved from 'something awful in November. EDUCATION OS SLAVERY "The education of the young is for us a question of life and death," said Trotzky. But it is not so for every state, and not only Russia? The Rus sian educationalist starts with one immense advantage over the teachers of ether countries he knows exact ly what he intends to teach. It is his first and supreme task to teach every little member of the Soviet state to be a devoted servant of that state, a follower of Lenine, well versed in the doctrines and precepts of Communism. But where else is there a single educational purpose so Oluer cmlizations like that of England find themselves in posses-M sion of systems of education poised between ancient traditions and ern needs. Young civilization like that of America are confronted with a host of interesting but conflicting experiments. A country such as Tur key, under Kemal Pasha, is endeav oring to impress Western' positivist doctrines on school children who have been nurtured on the teachings cf Muhammad.
