No Criticism Intended
AS HAS frequently been stated, the opinions of this paper
are expressed here in the editorial column and nowhere
else, not in its news columns,
Yesterday in a news story announcing that the world series
will be broadcasted by Joud speaker this year, instead of over
the radio, the statement was made that this action was due "to
the unsatisfactory service of radio broadcasting in the past
This has been taken by KMBD as a reflection upon the serv
ice of the local station , in broadcasting sporting events,
which was not intended and does not represent the opinion of
this newspaper.
.....
IN THE past the national hook-up of the world series has never
been satisfactory because local reception in mid-day has been
poor. IT WAS THIS CONDITION THAT WAS REFERRED
TO.
Broadcasting by KMED has been PERFECTLY SATISFAC
TORY for those who have received the reports on their own
radio sets and will continue to be so. But it has not been sat
isfactory for this newspaper's broadcasting of its own wire re
ports, and because of this a "public address" system has been
installed. ' ' ' 1 . .
This is the universal practice of newspapers, which do not
have their own broadcasting stations. The Mail Tribune be
lieves this will be a more satisfactory service than has been pos
sible in the past, as far as open-air broadcasting in front of its
offices are concerned.
Tins service will be of no use to those who prefer to get re
ports of important sporting events over their office or home
radios. They will continue in the future, as in the past, to get
their reports via the broadcasting stations, a type of service
which has many advantages, but which, by the nature of things,
only newspapers operating their own broadcasting stations can
satisfactorily supply.
What Will Become of England?
ONE hears a great deal about how well off financially
France is and how poorly off England is.
This is true- But few seem
positions came about.
Shortly after the war France depreciated her currency by
pegging the value of the frano at approximately 5 instead of
20 cents. In effect she paid her debts 25 cents on the dollar.
"'. John Bull refused to do this. With characteristic loyalty to
his traditions and high senBe of honor, he deoided to pay his
debts in full 100 cenjs on the dollar.
To do this put a tremendous load upon the British taxpayers.
John was able to carry it during prosperous times, but when
the depression broke, it also broke John Bull's financial back.
As a result England was forced to abandon the gold stand
ard, to prevent a persistant run on the Bank of England 's gold
reserve. This placed her currency virtually on the same basis
as the obligations of any confessedly insolvent institution. .
......
HOW long this will last of course no one knows. But at this
writing it appears highly, improbable that she will be able to
resume gold payments, without also doing what France did
repudiate the bulk of her debts. Germany of course even went
further and virtually repudiated ALL her debts, by working
her printing presses until the mark wag worthless.
' Such aotion would be entirely contrary to the traditions and
personal code of that splendid old aristocrat Johnathan Bull,
Esquire. It would impair his cherished ' prestige, injure his
pride, lower his self respect. ,
But the world is changing not only rapidly but fundamen
tally new and tremendous economic forces are being released.
Great Britain may well decide that she must either adjust her
financial struoture to these forces, or go down take her place
with third rate powers like Spain and Portugal.
Faoed by such a dilemma there is little doubt how John Bull
will act. He is a hard fighting and tenacious old bird and
while repudiation would be a bitter pill, he would swallow it
it rather than bIIow even his sense of honor to. overcome his
Instinct for solf preservation.

Republicans are on his side,
against prohibition.
. Senator Dwight W. Morrow
is among those expected to dis
cuss prohibition in New Jersey,
with the hope of bringing back
legal beer to replace, or at least
compete with abundant bootleg
whiskey.
The mention of Senator Mor
row will cause one non-loquacious
citizen of Massachusetts
to take notice.
When 1936 rolls around the
two conspicuous Republicans
will be Coolidge and Morrow,

has in mind.
Mr. Coolidge belongs to the prohi
bition era, now looked upon as mld-
Vlctorlan. Mr. Morrow, who swept
New Jersey on a wet platform, belongs
to the modern "prohibition 1 i
crime-breeding failure" party.
Both parties will soft pedal prohi

pedaling, for the politicians will
know what the people think.

"No," Sam said. "It very possibly

"Then that settles my wide cf the
question. Wby should you marry
me? Well, I'm not such a bad young
man. My gentle nature Is a by-word

that, I'm rich. I could give you "
"Don't!" Sam pleaded desperate

"All right I wish you'd think It

"1 will."
"Fair enough." He got to his feet
"What about New Year's Eve?"
Sbe smiled up it him faintly. "I
suppose I'll go."
"Swell!" He grinned at ber, and
strode away down tbe corridor.
As Sam passed through the city
room sbe met Freddy.
"I'm thinking about giving a party
at my place the night after Christ
mas," he said. "Could you come?
Good. Meet me here about nine."
Tbe city room of the Express on
tbe night after Cbrlstmas was

"I want to thank you for my
Christmas present" she said.
"You're welcome," Freddy said.
"I wonder wby I sent It I must
like you. That's It I do like you.
In my opinion you're a nice girl."

The night before New Year's Eve
Freddy and Sam dined In a Chinese
American restaurant Sam was
aware that Freddy was moody.
Finally he aaid abruptly: "What
shall we do on New Year's Eve?"
She shook her bead. "I'm sorry,
I'm going to the Cricket Club."
"Ob." He scowled. "With Peak
Abbott."
'Yes." Sam realized, with almost
a sense of shock, bow little ebe had
thought of Peak during the past
week, Tbe week had been a vivid
Interlude an Interlude for which
Freddy was entirely responsible.
Freddy said casually: "I'm get
ting reatless. I think I'll throw my
Job and move on. St. Louis or Kan
sas City." He was elaborately car
less. "I'm tired of this town."
"Ob." Sam sat perfectly still tor
a moment. Tben sbe said quietly,
"I'll miss you, Freddy."
He looked ber In tbe- eyes, his
own sullen. "If yon marry Peak
Abbott," he said with distinctness
"you ought to be thoroughly
asbamed of yourself."
Sam stared. "Don't you think
that you'd better apologize?"
His smile was not pleasant "I see
no reason for an apology."
"Very well." Sam was furious, but
sbe kept ber voice calm. "1 think
I'd better be going now."
While Sam was waiting for Fred
dy to get bis hat and coat sbe saw
her balf-brother. Nelson, He was
dancing with a girl who seemed
vaguely familiar. Sam watched with
Interest and saw that tbe girl In
Nolson's arms was Martha Olvens,
tbe maid of all work.
Freddy found Sam half way down
the stairs. In silence tbey walked
to Sam's little car.
"Good night Miss Sherrlll," Fred
dy said mockingly. "I trust that you
may have a delightful time wltb
Mr. Abbott at the Cricket Club."
"Thanks," said Sam. "I'll try."
The Cricket Club was hot and
crowded. The orchestra bad been
placed In a narrow hallway between
the two table-lined rooms, which
should have been a strategic point
At the tar end of either room, bow
ever, Its melodies were almost en
tirely drowned out by the babble ot
voices, wltb the result that the danc
ing couples were packed near the
doorways In a struggling mass.
Sam tried to think about the
beautiful spray ot orchids on ber
shoulder. She wanted to forget
Nelson and Martha Glrens, and the
necessity of speaking to him about
her. She wanted to forget Freddy
Munson. She wanted to forget Peak
Abbott and tbe problem he present
ed. Able to forget nothing, sbe was
forced to surrender berself, smiling,
from one pair ot male arms to an
other. Finally tbe lights were turned
out as she sat at the table, and
Sam knew that tbe New Year bad
arrived. Someone touched her arm.
"Miss Sherrlll?" The uniformed
attendant looked harried. "You're
wanted on the telephone. I've been
trying to find you for ten minutes,
but"
Sam, vaguely alarmed, pusbed
her way through the crowd. Who
would telephone her at this hour?
