Friday, November 11, 1932 LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER, LA GRANDE, ORE. Page Seven ') i Is Politics Improving Or No? . ' 1932 Campaign Has Good Points By Byron Price At the end of every national cam paign, serious-minded persons are apt to bo asking themselves whether poll tics Is getting worse or beter. Well, what about 1032? Viewing the case now, while the animosities of battle still linger, a good many commentators are Inclined to be pessimistic. They are appalled at the grant quantities of slush and bunk dished out to the voter, and at the .free and easy Way In which charges of demagogy and unfair tac tics and even plain lying have been bandied about In the final weeks of the campaign. t They are unanimous in their con clusion that some of the materials which have gone Into the fabric of 1032 politics never will be a source of prldo In years to come, either to the respective parties which sponsored them, or to the American people. But those .who are Inclined to be worried and discouraged at the cur-, rent level of politics may modify their verdict somewhat when they have cooled off and remembered the past. Much that has been said this year was cribbed directly from the text books of other campaigns. As bad, and In some Instances far worse, ap pears to have happened more than oncti before.

A HTK1' FOHWAItl) For .instance, this has been the first time within the memory of most of ue when anything resembling a Joint debate took place between the two leading' contenders for the presi dency. Tho voters have heard the Issues talked back and fourth; they have not had to be content, as In most presidential years, with mulling over the utterances of the candidates and figuring out foi themselves, by read ing between the lines, who was talk ing about whom. Names have been named, 'flntl quotation and reply have been direct. 1 This method of conducting cam paigns has been hoped for by many who have been seeking to get po litical discussions out of the murk of veiled allusion and the mire of false pride. Pew will dispute that, in theory at least, it marks a step forwurd. PA It TV LINKS ItKOKKN For many years students of pol itics have looked forward to a day Royal Romance Rumor Linking Prince George STOCKHOLM tm Rumors of a royal romance between Princess In erld. Drettv 22-vear-old daughter of j Sweden's crown prince, and Prince ' George, fourth son of the king of .England, will not down.' Not cycn tlle dl8counts Blven out by court clrclcs ln vnAoa nor thc 1 departure ui Hie prjiiwcoo jiuui mv j British capltnl unattended save by hor holiday host, tho DUKo or Atn- lone, served to stifle the talk here Swet'rm remembers the many ap pearances of the two in public when Prince George accompanied hlr. oldest brother, the Prince of Wales, on tho latcr's visit to Swed en ln October. At Haces Together Ho was constantly at her side at tho opera, tho race track, the lunch con table and on promenade. It was even related that they were seen walking hand-ln-hand and ln Sweden that is a sign of betrothal, cither onnounccd or imminent. When tho British visitors arrived, rumors had It that Ingrid might be come the bride of the heir to the British throne and hence olmost sure future queen of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. But from railroad stn.tlon greetings to rsll roac1 station farewells, It was the 29-year-old George who appeared alongside Sweden's royal daughter when tho news photographers de veloped tholr plates. Wales Too Busy? There was, of course, a logical reason for this, but romantic gossip lo seldom logical. The Prince of Wales, as honored guest of the na tion, had to devote most of his time to his royal host, King Gustaf and to Ingrld's father, Crown .Prince Gustaf Adolf. There were opportunities, how ever, when the British heir might have helped fix rumor on himself. Thcro was, for example, the first dancing party given for the visitors. But Wales tangoed most of the time with Mrs. Clark Kerr, wife of the British minister. It was George who was the partner of Ingrid. Again, at the first formal dinner at the 'Castle, Ingrid took George's arm as her escort to the table. England, ond Sweden olrcady are linked through royal marriage. Thc young subjects of the present crop of rumors are, ln fact, great-grandchildren of Queen Victoria. In grld's mother was Princess Marga ret of Connaught, daughter of Vic toria's second son, tho aged Duke Icf Connaught. This granddaughter of England's great queen married the present crown prince and bore him all his children. 1920.

This year, from the beginning, the Democratic nominee directed his ap- peal across party bounc&rles, and at ked , openly far Republican votes, In. the later stages of the campaign the Republican nominee repeatedly asked for the support of Democrats. In many states, in far greater meas ure than in ony other recent elec tion, party ties dissolved almost com pletely. For the first time, on old - line minor party had a really respectful hearing on the part of the great moss of American voters. Although fthe tost majority disagreed with htm, the Socialist nominee became oy popular consent a reai iiguro in the campaign. HKNRI'ltS OF iK!HKStOX Thus cn Its positive side, 1032 has not been without its evidences of a lnrgzr outlook on politics. On Its purely negative side, it has seen fewer chargers of outright cor ruption, of illegal use of money, than most of Its predecessors among the presidential years. Of course this may be only a tem porary Improvement, due to the scarcity of campaign funds. But if the 111 wind of the depression Is to be blamed for tho harm It has done in politics, why not give It creC.it as well for the good It has done? 8 Persist in Europe and Princess Ingrid They Are cousins Prince Georgo, of course, traces bock to Victoria through his father, tho present ruler and his grandfather thc late Edward VII. The relationship figures down to tho thirtt degree of couslnship bo tween George and Ingrid. Stockholm has become accustomed, of lote years to a lot of this sort of weighing and balancing. The crashes of thrones since tho world war has restricted the royal marriage circle materially and the daughters of the House of Bernadotte have occupied an increasingly prominent place in it. Ingrid, despite her youth, has not been exempt. She was mentioned frequently when it became known that Crown Prince Frederick of Den mark was ready to marry. Another rumor had her engaged to Count Nils von Rosen.
