is really tfuin; on is a Militical revolution, i Whctlier Hoover or
Smith wins. 4liis country alter November (i is jjoing to be some
lliino; mlilieally it lias never been before.
AVe were particularly interested today to see a letter from
a well-known .Michigan Liberal some mitfht call him a K-adica!
who lias voted the IjaKoilelte and Socialist ticket for many
years. He lives in UtnshiK and bis name is Frank Kiudon.
This is what he thiifli.s of Secretary Hoover:
The next elKht years are 'wUva to be crucial in the field of In
tel national relations. Ily UKIti a Kneralinn which had no per
Honnl experience of the war In koiiik to be lakiim poHsesslon of the
places of power over the world. 1'nlesH wise and patient direc
tion is .'iiven International aflaiiH so that peace Is thoroughly safe
guarded, it Ik koIiik to he easy for such a generation to fall again
into the fallacy of militarism.
Mr. Hoover knows the world, he Is acouainled with the leaders
of the nations, he has had unusual opportunities to reach the
mood of the rank and file of the peoples, he has the confidence
of the masses of Kurope.
In (his critical hour I believe he has such unusual qualifica
tions for humane leaileiship in this field that every progressive
should weigh them carefully before turniriK our leadership over
to the hands of a man who has had no opportunity for experience
in foielKti affairs and would necessarily he dependent upon second-hand
information given him by bureaucrats.
It seems to me, also, thai .Mr. Hoover's position on prohibition
Is much saner than that of his opponent. He proposes a thor
ough investigation of prohibition enforcement and the building up
of an enforcement organization which shall profit hy what the
investigation reveals. Me is for the retention of the Eighteenth
Amendment. That seems to mu lo he a perfectly candid and rea
sonable position.
(inventor Hmllh, on the other hand, proposes a new definition
of what is an alcoholic hevorngo and then, within sonic as yet uu
fixed llinll, the dclermimillon hy each state of its own percentage
of alcoholic content in beverages. Much a suggestion seems to me
so ehaolic as almost to cast a shadow upon the intelligence of
the man making It. . . .
Mr. lloover'H whole personality and career seem to mo to jus
tify liberal fait Ii in him. lie brings an unusual training with
which lo face the great engineertr..'; problems involved In the de
velopment of power; lie is committed to tho St. Lawrence, Water
way project, which will prove of inestimable benefit to the manu
facturing and agricultural interests of the Middle West; he has
never heen allied with any political organization which was inter
ested in perpetuating itself in office for the sake of the spoils
thereof. In terms of the number of people who have actually
been helped hy his efforts in limes of dire sufferi.:.;;, he Is the
greatest public servant on earth today. ... It Is true lie Is in
volved In our present capitalistic system, hut so is his opponent;
It is true that he Is bidding for the support of the plutocracy, but
so is his opponent. On that Issue they are Tweedledum and
Tweedledee. The only candidate with any constructive idea here
Is Norman Thomas.
The liberal who is seeking an immediately available camTl
date for the presidency who will bring knowledge to internaliolial
affairs, conviction and Hut scientific spirit to prohibition and ti
personality unwarped by unsavory ot;anizalion influences lo the
White House has no alternative hut to vote for Herbert Hoover.

Notes on Nearetlc Poisonous Snakes j
ami Treatment of the Itites, by Dr. '.
Afinnlo Do Amaral, noted for his j
work, in thin field in tho Itrazillan
institute as well as the American j
institute at Cllenolden, Pa. In this i
article Dr. Amaral advises that j
when there Is no nntivenin at hand, I
il is well to apply a tourniquet '
abovo the bite, tightly at first, but
partially released for a few see-i
onds at five or ten minute inter- :
vals. so as to maintain the neces- !
sary circulation In the limb, lie
says there is no particular advan-'
tage in making an incision in ap
plying permanganate of potassium j
solution or crystals, or any of the'
olliar chemical agents commonly !
recommended for snake bite, Jn
fact, it is advisable to avoid any
fiirlher mutilation of the tissues,
this authority assures us, becfttise
of the Increased danger of tetanus
or other secondary infection.
Dr. Amaral says that it has been
shown (that potassium permanga
nate must I m used in such concen
tration, to have any effect on the
venom, that It injures the tissues.
Dr. Amaral says that alcohol or
any other stimulant may help tbej
distribution of the venom through j
the body, 'by exciting the elreula-i
lion, mid he favors the use of cuf-l
fell i or strychnin if symptoms of
giddiness or weakness develop.
In a previous article about snake
bite. I adviser) the torniuet. then
Incision of the wound or fang punc
tures to favor bleeding, then per-
manganale. and 1 said this is good
first aid treatment whether one I
has nntivenin in Hie emergency kit i
or not. I note that Dr. Amaral
advises that no lornlrpiet be njis
plied If one has the antlsnake bite''
senim at hand to admiplstet im-
mediately, for the torniliet Would i
prevent the antidote from reach-!
Iiik the area . where the venom iM
presumably eoneeutrated about
the site of the bite.
This nntivenin Is now prepared
here in the American institute and
distributed widely through the reg
ular drug trade channels. It is
effective against bites by any of
three or four venomous snakes of
North America, (rattler, coral,'
moccasin, copperhead . conies In
a syringe package ready to Inject,
and keeps well enough anywhere.
Persons eainplng or traveling in
snake country should carry thi.;
antidote In the emergeriey ftit. Any
one may inject the dose under the
skin of the back, or one may in
ject" oneself under the skin of the
thigh. Dr. Amaral advises that
a portion of the dose be injected
around the bite when the serum
Is at hand for Immediate use. IL

North American snakes If Iven

Rippling
Rhymes
(By Walt Maaon.)
THE LOUD BAZOO
"Old Jasper Jingle makes me
tired," re mar iced my friend. I-o-renzo
Leeds; "he wishes so to
be admired he advertises all hia
deeds. If he dixs tip six bones
or eight, to buy a cripple salvo
and splints, he'll ask reporters
to relate the story In the public
prints. He gives to this, he -lives
to that,, he helps good causes, I
admit; and then he heats a drum
thereat, to see his kindness
makes a hit. You meet him on
the public street, and he will
tell, without delay, how he just
took a pickled beet to someone
lying ill today. Or he just paid
a widow's rent, and kept a roof
above her head, or gave an or
phan boy a cent to !uy himself
a slice of bread. 1 do not like
the man who tells his goodness
in the market place, who hands
himself a string of hellH,and
thinks he ornaments the race.
"Thero is a prejudice," I said,
against the man who1 toots his
horn, when he has given loaves
of bread, a pound of tripe, an
ear of corn. No doubt It would
be better taste to tool no horn,
to shoot no gun, to show no rash
unseemly haste in boastin; of
good he's done. Old Jasper gives
a cord of wood to heat some
poor man's lowly hut; and if a
man is doing good, we should
allow that man to strut. Old
Jasper takes some beans in hags
o comfort some unlucky hicks;
we should forgive him it' he
brags, forget his little foolish
tricks. We shouldn't criticise
the man who's doing good from
day to da;. ; oh, let him beat a
gong or pan, or sing some lines
from Hoom-de-ay. Old Jasper's
heart is good as gold, and all
the rest we should forget when
he comes up, bombastic, bold, to
tell the biggest story vet,"
attribute his troubles to his neacc
ful neighbor.
The American business man, pay
ing ri'i or fl per cent interest on
money, wonders if he is dreaming
when he reads this headline in the
financial news, "Varis money sti!l
easy, per cent continues for
discounts; bank ralo to hold at H
per cent."
If you want to fly you can in
sure your life at small expense.
When Fulton ran his little steam
boat, manufactured with iron from
Allaire, X. J the people waited
on the Hudson's hanks to see him
blown into the air. He probably
could not have got insurance. Now
insurance covers steamboats,, rail
roads and automobiles, and soon
will cover airplanes.
Nothing could be more childish
in a campaign affecting the wel
fare of 1(10,000,000 people than
whisperings and answering whis

The quest Is eternal for the per

dweller is spurred each auium'i
to seek among new residential
'structures a. suite moulded a '.ttb
closer lu his heart's desire. S'
hunting a new apartment comes1
to be a habit, and moving season
becomes a holiday as inevitable
as Christmas or summer vacation
, lOven to many of the movers
themselves the September proces
sion of moving- vans seems to be
a parade without rhyme or re:.-;
(on. prompted by restlessness mil
fostered by a willingness to give;
up one advantage to gain another.
One family is willing to live eight,
.blocks from the subway in order j
jto have a good view and an epen
fireplace. Another, tiring of the
view, and finding that the firo-
i place smokes, wants to get closer j
to transportation. One house
holder wants to live nearer his of -1
:fice. another wants to get farther
away from city dins.
i From year to year the trend
is lo new buildings, which, to rent
'at moderate prices, must be stead
ilv farther awav from the center
of the city. When these are filled,
'dwellers in humbler flats occupy
Ulu npartmenlH thus left vacant,
and In their wake come residents
j the poorer downtown districts,
to whom even the meaner and
older outlying apartments are de
sirable. The counter-trend to new
and costlier apartments closer to
ilhe city's center is comparatively
'small, and through the years Man
