Buyers Week To Open August 6 stunts will mulic If Ilccburt Hoover's addiction to peanuts lias anything to do with the republican elephant, the question is, what should Al Smith eat hay or raw meat The United Slates Olympic team hasn't been doing so well. 1'or the first time in many an international contest, the .American runners flopped in the .sprints. They have pre viously done better than the new champions, should have (!onc so again, lint maybe the losses are more advantageous than the victories would have been. The meet, according to preliminary dope, threatened to be a bit too ail-American. First places won by other countries for u change will help promote Olympic good will, perhaps. We can well share ath letic fame with Canada, lor example, with Knglaml. The .'imrt's the thing. , To the ordinary layman who is just naturally dumb about I lie intricacies of building the recent bids on the normal school building are a puzzle. The general bids went from a low of ' .. 1 1 r,)00 to a high of around If 115,000 not a bad variation and one that might be explained by difference in efficiency and in profit conception. I'.ut take the painting bids, some thing like $2ill0 to !?.")1(I0, the low being just about half of thn high. The plans and specifications were the same in each case. A so-called standaid was set and will be required of the workmen. Material was .sceificd with reasonable ex actness. Vet one contractor figures a fair price is twice that figured by another for the same job. It's foolish to think that I he difference is exorbitant profit. The bidding is competi tive. Which brings us back to the original observation that Mich things are a puzzle to the layman. A S.M,i:SMANSIiIl' CON'TKKT 'Hie appointment and early activities of John .Jacob Kas l.ob, chairman of the finance committee of (ieneral Motors Vnd "most potent" of that corporation's high executives, as national democratic chairman and Smith campaign manager indicates partially what the campaign will be. Kaskob is "l!ig r.usiness." lie represents unusual executive and organ ising ability in a country where that kind of ability is vital to success, lie turns powerful salesmanship into the channels f politics for the first JUnie in many campaigns. Itaskob's appointment inspires the imagination and in-c-eascs one's admiration of Smith. It's not difficult to see that a new generation has come into power in the democratic party, at least for the period of the Smith campaign. When a big executive gives up the leadership of a corporation like (ieneral Motors, we come to the conclusion that Smith will not be lacking in men of money and influence. We arc also icd to assume that a least a fair proportion of the nation's business interests do not fear any serious injury to Amer ica's prosperity if Al is able to win the election. .Smith and his advisers have made a smart move. No one ever heard of Kaskob in politics before this appointment vas made. That's a happy variation from the usual ordor. !n speaking of his new job as director of the Al Smilli. presi dential fortunes, Kaskob is quoted as follows: "I am not a politician and have never been affiliated wi.tli i-ny pally. . . . This undoubtedly has been the position of many citizens in all walks of life. . . . There come times in the life of a nation when men not in politics, feel called upon to lake an active instead of a passive intouM in Severn inenl. .My belief that such a lime is at hand accounts for my willingness to accept In our business life today we suc- ' eed . . . Iiy having belter goods to sell than our competi tors. There is every reason why the democratic paity should follow this constructive business policy in this campaign." Il looks like a selling campaign; which is as it should lie. If more people can lie sold Al Smith than Herbert fllmvcr, Al .''inith .should win. It's one brand against anolhei. A husi ress proposit ion, with the better organization, the better eon leplion of the market, the bolter salesmanship dtei nuuin the final decision, l-'ol t unately for the country, both prod ucts are of high quality. Kolli can be guaiantocdao sati.-.l'y with reasonable assurance. . T ) 1 I i 'lh" .yiih'ty of iiiiliuiis h;irtlly ex-, hnsp i;oillmhii 111!
