    Notv You Hear Opinions
A House on the Roof
Mr. Dempsey Will Dor
The Hoys of California
^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^
You begin now to hear opinion*.
Senator King of Utah, who studies
and knows politics, says if the
democrats would name Ford, he
would be elected. But they won’t
name Ford, says King; they will
name McAdoo, and he will be
tiected unless unprecedented pros
perity lasts up to Hhe election day,
in which case Harding will be re
ilected. _
That’s it, It depends on Secre
tary Mellon. If he, who knows fi
nance as Sarazen knows putting,
can keep money plentiful, easy to
borrow, without any inflation ex
plosion, Harding will get in. His
< -mpaign speech will be short: ‘‘If
you are tired of $14 a day, vote
for someone else.”
One of the ablest republican
senators, who knows farmers bet
ter than any other republican, said
t" this writer: ‘‘If the democrats
should nominate Ford, he’d be
elected overwhelmingly. Millions
of republican farmers would vote
for him\
‘‘But the democrats feel very in
dependent and think they don’t
need l ord. So they won’t nominate
him.”
Meanwhile, remember Ralston
of Indiana, and Hiram W. Johnson,
and some others, and all the things
that can happen between now and
November, 1924.
Mr. Harry S. Black of New York
is building a town house on top of
the new addition to the Plaza hotel,
which is 18 stories high.
All the comforts of home on top
of a hotel will amuse Europe as
another “American idea.” Mr.
Black may have in mind beating
the hanging gardens of Babylon
and adding one to the world’s
seven wonders. Or he may have
read about the dwarf standing pn
the giant’s shoulders, seeing farther
than the giant.
The next similar announcement
will tell of a residence, not 18
stories up, but two or five miles
up, on a lighter-than-air machine,
able to supply any climate desired.
At Shelby, Mont., Mr. Dempsey
will fight somebody else, in a
month or so. One hundred car
penters are working on an arena.
And already $400,000 worth of
tickets have been sold. That is only
a beginning. Two millions or more
will be the total, and tens of thou
sands will spend other millions to
travel from all over to Shelby.
What other show would draw a
crowd so far in America, or draw
$2,000,000 for a few “minutes
pleasure’’ in America? When the
historian of 5,000 A. D., gets the
facts on that fight, do you think
he will need much more informa
tion about our civilization in 1923?
The boys of California beat all
the other colleges in college games.
A little group of 13 California boys
qualified 17 times in the inter
collegiate A. A. A. A. at Philadel
phia. Yale came next, qualifying
16 times.
Contrast these white athletes of
modern California with the Indian
aborigines, too laz.y to catch rab
bits, too cowardly to attack bigger
animals.
Those that visit California won
der how the people there have time
or energy for anything except en
joying the climate. Then they look
around and see the most energetic,
progresive people on earth.
The New York Times finds the
conduct of Trotzky amusing, in the
matter of England’s ultimatum.
"Trotzky took a sedative and back
ed down,” says the Times. Trotzky
did what England often has done.
He avoided a fight for which he
wasn't ready.
Trotzky is a Jew r d Jews are
not fools in diplomacy. That was
proved by Gambetta, putting the
French republic on its feet; by Dis
raeli in England, making Victoria
empress of India; by Carvalho, in
Portugal, and many another.
It will be time enough to laugh
at Lcnine and Trotzky when they
fail. The extraordinary thing about
them is their standing up in the
face of a tempest apparently irre
sistible. —
One hundred thousand men in
the Ruhr are on strike, threatening
to seize the great factories and run
them.
"Reds,” our dispatches call them.
It’s a convenient word. Those Ger
man workmen are doing what Pitts
burgh or Chicago workmen would
do if Japanese or English troops
were in possession and the men
had not enough to eat.
The American workmen, how
ever, more nervous and high
strung, would not have waited as
the Germans have done, and their
rebellion would be considerably
more violent. -
Seizing territory with millions of
aliens in it, able to read, think and
fight, is a doubtful investment.
Ancient Rome managed it for a
while by making her conquered ter
ritory more prosperous and just as
independent as before.
President Harding has officially
fixed the proportions of the Ameri
can flag. If it is a foot wide it
must be 1.67 in length. Not quite
twice as long as it is wide.
The next thing Is to fix the lo
cation and the job of the United
States flag. It should fly at sea, on
American ships, and be seen in
every port. It should not be mixed
up with other flags in Europe,
Africa or Asia, playing second fid
dle to a collection of bankrupt
foreign flags. ---
England, France, Italy, are ex
cited about our law forbidding
them to have wine on their own
ships when in our ports. But it
can all be settled easily enough.
Our law says that anybody can
have as much wine as his doctor
thinks good for him. Ninety-nine
out of 100 French, English and
Jtulian doctor* will certify that
crews at sea need wine or beer for
their health. That w:ll settle tin'
problem. Passenger* from abroad
will probably get their little medi
cal certificate* and their "supply”
three miles out. |

Nebraska to See
Irrigation Plans
Purpose ill Me to “Pep I p*
Projects—Tour Planned
on Return From
Alaska.
H> (iKOKGK I . ,\1 Till Kit.
Special Ulaputch tv The Omaha Bee.
Washington, May -X.—Secretary of
the Interior Work hopes to visit some
of the irrigation anti reclamation
projects of the country upon his re
turn from Alaska, where he will ac
company President Harding. Ho has
not decided which ones he will look
over. eNllher has it been decided
who will accompany him on his lour
of inspection.
It was slated at the Interior de
partment today thaat Secretary Work
did not know whether his Itinerary
would include Nebraska. He will not
arrange Ins schedule until the presi
dent's itinerary has been fully de j
cided upon. Secretary Work would
like to stop off in Nebraska, and will
do so if possible, but it was in- ;
timated this was far from certain.
To Put "Kirk" in Work.
The secretary's purpose in visiting
the reclamation projects is to give
more "kick” to the work of this
character and determine what can
he done in the future. Reclamation
advocates fear there will be opposl- :
tion to the appropriation of large
sums of money for these improve
ments, owing to developing opposi
tion front the farm bloc ns expressed
by Senator Capper of Kansas.
This group believes that so long
as tli© farms now under vultivation
are not selling their products at a
marked profit, it is economically
wrong to develop more soil for culti
vation.
Secretary Work has made it clear
he stands for a fuller development of
the policy of reclaiming arid lands
and will fight for his position. This
is one of the things the president will
have to harmonize and will probably
attempt It during his western trip,
on which he proposes to take boih
Secretary Wallace and Secretary
Work.
Hotter Prices Due.
"Recent reports from the irrigation
project of the Department of Interior
indicate that crops and better prices
for farm products are expected by
the farmers, and a much more optim
istic outloo prevails on the project
than was the case last year." de
clared Secretary Work.
"On the notrehern projects or- ‘
chards have bloomed heavily and
little damage to the fruit has re
sulted from frost. A large area is
being planted to sugar beets on these
projects where tills is one of the
standard rash crops, and test plots
have been planted to this crop on
several other projects to determine
Its practicability. The increase in
tile price of potatoes has resulted in
the shipment of large (luantltles.
whicli had been stored during the
recent price slump.
On a number of the projects the
settlers lire showing Increased in
terest in dairying, with the result
that new creameries and cheese fae
tories are being erected as fast as
conditions permit."

Indianapolis, May L’S.—The recent
: appeal by a group of prominent per
[sons to President liaiTlIng for the re
■ lease of (he D2 so-called political
prisoners, was declared "distinctly
unpatriotic'' by Lemuel Holies, na
tional adjutant of the American Le
gion, in a statement here today.
"These so-called political prisoners
sought m many ways to block the
government in the crisis of its inter
national reputation," declared Mr.
! Holies. "They attempted to turn aside
our yotilhs from the cause of the
nation when it called for aid They
evaded wartime laws and aimed io

"These men have received consid
