Su. phom.n. k. will p"ba"iy;than 5t is today.-but the fact A Krazy Cat Performance POLITICAL conventions may come and go, party platforms may ebb and flow, but keynote speeches go on the SAME forever. There is an unwritten law never deviated from, by the keynote speaker of the party in power, namely: To deliver the speech with the solemn pomposity of a Decor ation Day orator during the Grant administration. To claim the opposition party can do no BIGHT, the ad ministration party can do no WRONG. To point to mistakes as achievements, and achievements as evidence of unparalleled administrative genius. To shout continuously for at least three hours, until the speaker's stiff collar has entirely disappeared, and most of the bored and perspiring delegates have. To never forget the Civil War, and end on that stirring patriotic note, while the band plays, the gallery claquers func tion, and the press boys file in aftT their three hour recess, during which PROFESSIONAL duties were confined to putting the following three words on the wire.1 ' "KEYNOTE SPEECH RELEASED 1'' There is the G. O. P. keynote formula, and it is just as sacred an ark in the Republican covenant, as it was half a century ago. Those who can explain WHY, can no doubt also explain, why during such a depression as the present one, the Republican convention should remain in session for a week instead of adjourning in two daysl Why Not Talk Sense! THE present writer has attended several party conventions in the past and has always if the keynote speaker should instead of nonsense for two or We know what Jhe reaction j these hard working lads would fa B t d b tfa . would fall over dead, and it is 1 their relatives, that this ', lously adhered to. 7E wonder what would have Senator Dickinson had erflt;on 0f the prohibition problem, instead of ignoring that issue entirely. -nr. wnnrlnr what would have time for lowering the nation's of lauding the Smoot-Hawley prosperity, a protecting wall from Europe. We wonder what would have happened, had he admitted that while the formation of the farm board, represented a sincere effort to keep up prices on wheat and cotton and grain, thanks to the law of supply and demand, this effort had failed, and that t!.e problem must bu attacked from another angle. X7"E wonder what would have happened, had he maintained that President Hoover had done everything in his power to end the depression, had done more than any other man in his positipn could have done that but for his efforts the de pression would undoubtedly have been even more disastrous naa grown sieaauy worse instead 01 Deuer, ana mat it returned to power the Republican- party pledged itself to a program in harmony with the NEW rather than with an OLD economio era. a.) OUCH a keynote would have been sense instead of nonsense, would have rung true instead of false, would have been realistio, instead of fantastic But such a key note has never been dolivered in a Repub lican convention or in a Democratic convention, and probably never will be. The venerable professional politicians who de termine the ritual of major party conventions, like the Bour bons, remember nothing and forget nothing. Liko Nero they continue to fiddle, while Rome burns. DERHAPS some day party conventions will be held in an atmosphere of rationalism and common sense. But those who have high hopes in this direction, should not be too sanguine. When all is said and done, party conventions merely represent the lovel of political consciousness, throughout the country at large. A:, long as the rank and file fall for unadulterated whang doodle, clap-trBp and hooey in their local politics, they can expect little better in their national conventions. HOUSE POSTPONES , BALLOT ON BONUS I UNTILWEDNESDAY (Continued truth Fag On.) sentatlv Ralney, the Democratic leader, told newspapermen "th bon us I licked." "It will pass th house but there are not enough votes for the neces sary two-thirds to psaa It over a presidential veto," Ralney said.

The Unknown Speaks, Hanging for Kidnapers, Copyright King Features Bynd, ma For the Republican conven tion, telegraph companies have provided wires and operators enough to transmit 350,000 words an hour. They will be needed, for Americans like many words. A few would suffice for the actual news, enough to tell that President Hoover has been renominated, that another man has, or has not, been chosen to take Vice President Curtis' place, and that the Republicans, have adopted a prohibition plank, to please the wets as much as possible, and offend the drys as little as possible. The Republican party will demand a plank for the preservation of the gold standard, though the heavens fall, because the gold etandard Is the only reliable foundation of prosper ity. Some may ask: "What KIND of prosperity? This kind, or the 1929 brand?" The old Republican party, with the sorrow of failure In her heart, wlU appear at her convention grasping In her arms the little gold fetish, even as a criminal goes to the elec tric chair having on his person some thing to represent -his particular re ligion. The new German government will tell assembled nations at Lausanne that Germany can, and WILL, no longer pay for losing the war. After that, the French and Ital ians, and the British, probably, will announce that they will not pay us. Paris announoes that the French and English prime ministers, have "an understanding" that Includes an understanding about the debts. This country ha already reduced ten billions of debt to five billions. and five billion more or less wtU not "make or break" the United States. The attitude of our foreign friends, which the United States should remember In future wars, is about this. A man borrows from hi friend. and later says: "I regret to tell you that I expected to pay that debt of honor by beating another man and taking the money from him. I have beaten him, and taken a good deal from him, but I can't get any more, so you don't get paid." , We shall not get our money, but we get a lesson that ought to be use ful. The next time Europe comes begging, borrowing and sobbing, It will find Uncle Sam wltb his fingers tightly crossed. A delegation of veterans, camping In Washington, went to pay tribute to the unknown soldier. It would not have aurprlsed them to hear from the tomb these words: "The country that was supposed to be so grateful doesn't know and doesn't much care who you are. It only wishes you would go home and atay home. It doea not know who I am either, and by this time probably doe not care much." Martin Deputy, alias Marshall De- pew, arrested as the leader of a gang that kidnaped a woman In Kansas City, tells detectives: "Boys, you're only wasting your time. I did It. I'm going to get the noose, and I'm not afraid." Missouri, In which the kidnaping was done, seeks to discourage that crime by punishing It with death. Capital punishment Is abhorrent. but If the five men that combined to kidnap the Missouri woman and extort $75,000 from .her were all strung up at once, It might make kidnaping seem less attractive. The republlo of Columbia makes up its mind quickly. Ten days ago it established "partial prohibition," stopping the sale of liquors between 6 in the morning and 6 In the even ing on holidays. The people did not like It and the partial prohibition ceases, by presi dential decree. We do not decide so rapidly. We wait until prohibition bootlegging has financed an army of crime that will be dangerous and hard to handle lf an end of prohibi tion cuts off their supplies of money. Different countries, different trou bles. In Turkey, the price of wheat has doubled, Turks are crying for bread, and the government seeks to prevent an Increase In the price. In this country, the price of wheat has gone to almost nothing, the far mers are crying for a chance to make both ends meet, and the price of bread remains as usual.

No reply can be mads to queries aress ur. wiiuam uraay m care 01 Tne CUBE OF My little boy now three years old developed a navel hernia when three months old, writes an eastern cor respondent. O n the advice of our physician I pro ceeded with the same method of treatment which you described in a recent talk. Jt grew worse until after a few weeks It was the tlze of a large wal nut. A surgeon who happened to see the child assured me It would be necessary to operate. He said It was Impossible for a hernia as large as that to be cured In any other way. (The surgeon would. Neverthe less plenty of hernias, In children and adults, are being cured nowa days In ways which ever ready oper ators have yet to learn.) Despite; this, the correspondent continues, I took him to another physician. He Instructed me In the method of pinching the muscles to gether. He agreed that the method I had used would probably not help matters any; that the pressure of the padded coin or disc served mere ly to keep the muscles of the abdom inal wall spread apart. He explained that the better way la to push the protrusion back Into place and then by pinching the muscles together and strapping securely with, adhes ive plaster, hold It back In place In definitely. This Z did. as he showed me, for several months, and I am glad to say that the cure Is now complete. (Mrs. 8. R.) The muscles of importance In this treatment are the pair of rectus muscles which lie one on either side of the midline and extend straight up and down. With strips of ad hesive plaster applied crosswise above and below the navel, one can keep these muscles pulled together. But adhesive plaster la likely to excoriate the skin and In any case must be freshly applied every few days, and the mother may fall to get It on In such a way as to keep the muscles drawn together. Dr. Frank E. Brundoge, Buffalo pedlatrlst, designed a special belt for this purpose, and when used as he directs It Is effective in drawing the! muscles together and keeping them! together, and it eliminates the unde bidding members to sit in congress after the election of their successors, and being defeated in the primaries she will resign from congress De cember 1st, allowing the man elected In her place to take her seat and her salary. This sincerity sets before other congressmen a good example that will NOT be followed. It Is said that the Republican pro hibition plank will make the national government assist with funds and en forcement states that choose to re main dry, in case others go wet. Such states will need much as sistance probably. They will become the camping ground of all the highly trained bootleggers and their racket eer hangers on. It would be difficult for states re maining dry to support the bootleg ging Industry In the "manner to which It hase become accustomed." Eagle Point EAGLE POINT, June 14. (Special) R. C.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Your Dally 2,600 How many calories does a woman of 50 need, when she does very little work. I mean the amount necessary to keep the body machine going. (Mrs. J. O. K.) Answer 2,600. This Is the mean of measurements and estimates by various nutrition authorities. Well, It's Consoling Some time ago you gave an In structlve talk on , the disadvantages of smoking. You promised to give later a few points in favor of smok ing. If you have done so we missed It . . . (M. B.) Answer If you wait till you are grown up (age 25 years) and have a large flock of pipes and a good sup ply of 'baocy and reserve your smok ing for the hour of relaxation after the day's work or play Is done and always keep the habit In control. It's consoling and, I believe, harmless. Experimentation I thank you for this sentence in your talk about animal experimen tation: "It serves to remind us that we cannot apply animal experimen tation to human physiology." Evi dently you are one of the doctors who not only think but are not afraid to say what they think. How can we best help to stop this useless, cruel animal experimentation? (S. R. D.) Answer I cannot comprehend why an intelligent woman, especially the mother of children, should want to stop it. My plea was not to stop ex perimentation, but to get suitable human material for it.

Talks T& Playing Princess (By Alice Judson Peale) A mother Is distressed because her little girl plays constantly, to the exclusion of all more wholesome, re alistic play, a game of make believe in which she Is a princess. As princess she is surrounded by adoring servants and a devoted lady ln-waltlng who anticipates her every wish. She Is, of course, the most beau tiful creature in the whole wide world. She has long golden hair and she wears dresses of gold and silver sewn with diamonds. She dances so wonderfully that people crowd about the palace gates to catch a glimpse of her. This kind of make believe goes oqSjh day after day for hours togethet. The' dolls, the housekeeping toys, the skates and balls that her mother had hoped would stimulate her to ft more natural kind of play either are rejected or pressed into the service of the princess game. Her mother wonders how she can meet this sit uation. The difficulty obviously Is that thJ little girt needs so much to enjoy a direct outlet for her self love and her wish for power that the more usual child games make no appeal to her. An attempt to prevent her from playing the particular phantasy which she has made for herself would not help. Her imagination, her en ergies would continue to be occo pled with It In secret.
