"1 leaned over to look at the map ONLY FOR A SECOND. .. .
Wben I looked up again the car was almost In the top of a tree."
TTHE King of the Belgians, speaking.
The Queen of the Belgians is dead.
That glance at the map, which the Queen held in her hands,
was only for a second, but it was long enough to end one human
life, and change the course of another perhaps alter the destiny
of an entire nation.
' A shocking tragedy, and yet one that in this mad gasoline
age, with its mania for speed, is happening every day.
""VMY for a second" did the King take his eyes from the
road. But the car was dashing along the rim of a lake, at
50 miles an hour, which means that in a second it could travel
70 or 80 feet.
Seventy or eighty feet straight AHEAD on a WINDING
road, every motorist knows what that may mean.
And in this case that is what it DID mean, tragedy, heart
break and death ! not only for a husband, a father and a fam
ily, but for an entire nation I .
"NLY for a second !" That might well be adopted as a safety
slogan to be pasted on every windshield.
Too infintesimal to consider, as the days go on and the
years roll by; but in this machine age of ours if marked by a
lapse quite enough to end everything that makes life worth liv
ing. "Only for a second!"
Far, far too high a price to pay, and the heart of the entire
world goes out ifl sympathy and sorrow to the King of the Bel
gians, but if this tragedy, heart breaking as it is, shall engrave
upon the minds of the motoring world, the poignant arresting
significance of those four words "only for a second," there
will be this consolation, the Queen of the Belgians will not
have died in vain.
Don't Believe It
SO William Randolph Hearst, Bainbridge Colby, Al Smith,
Rirnhifl of Mnrvlanrl. Rasknh of New York and other dis
gruntled Democrats are going to form a third party. This is the
announcement from New York, the tentative title of the new
organization being the Constitutionalist party.
Whereupon a prominent member of the Liberty League re
peats the prediction Franklin D. Koosevelt will not be the nom
inee of the Democratic party in 1936.
T TO HUM So the crazy prelude to the presidential war dance
goes on !
That there will be a well organized and determined, effort to
defeat Roosevelt at the 1936 convention is certain. It is equally
certain that no one can defeat the President, for the nomination,
except the President himself.
In other words, if F. D. R. wants the nomination'he will get
it, regardless of the opposition that may be aroused against him.
This would be true no matter who was President. As party con
ventions are now made up and administered, no one can beat
the ocoupant of the White House, who has had only one term
and WANTS another. . '
NOR is at at all probable this Constitutionalist Democratic
party will ever enter the campaign. When all is said and
done, party loyalty in the Democratic party is pretty strong,
and from now on until the convention meets it will grow
stronger. Many prominent Democrats who like Glass and Byrd
don't like many things the President has done, will be back of
him and the party 100 per cent when the time to vote comes
around.
IN ALL likelihood the real purpose behind this Third party
movement is only to throw a scare into tho New Deal ranks,
BEFORE the convention is held. If this scare can be made
strong enough, the anti-Roosevelt gain sufficient momentum,
there might be a chance about one in 3000 R'oosevolt could be
persuaded to step down and out on the plea of saving his party.
For obviously if there should be a real split in Democratic
ranks, Roosevelt, the nominee of one faction and ex-Governor
Ely of Massachusetts or .anyone else the candidate of the
other, Democratic defeat would be practically certain.
Democratio defeat however would mean Republican victory,
and when these revolting boys are faced by such an alternative,
watch them run back to get on the party band wagon.
In other words, while there is a strong anti-Roosevelt senti
ment in the Democratic party, when it comes to voting for
Roosevelt a second term or returning the G. 0. P. to power, at
least 99 out of 100 of the insurgents will choose the former, even
though it may require some nose holding and a life-sized chaser.
IT was ever thus. There is very little partisanship between elec
tions, but when another four years roll around, even though
the people may split six ways to Sunday, the boys high up in
the party councils return to thcirhome fires to be counted.
It doesn't take as good a politician as the President is to ap
preciate this fact. So when all the shouting and the tumult dies,
it's a hundred to one bet Franklin D. Roosevelt will be'the Dem
ocratic nominee, and at least 99 per cent of the Democratic lead
ers will be behind him.

The most significant change lately j"
lias uccu in prices, incy arc mgiiei
than at any time In five years. The
recent bulge of food and farm prices
(meat and hogs particularly) has
drawn the Index up. Industrial prices
are generally unchanged.
People seem to have developed a
new buying psychology. They are
purchasing electric refrigerators,
vacuum sweepers, washing machines,
autos, cigarettes and clothes. They
are taking trips to Europe. But they
are not buying liquor, homes, real
estate or making investments, at
least not to a commensurate extent.
For Instance. July production oi
cigarettes set a new record of 13 bil
lions. But the amount of building
contracts awarded in that month
wa only 34 per cent of normal,
even with the PWA stimulus.
Thla wave is undoubtedly a bad
outgrowth of the depression era, in
which some people lost their sav
ings. They do not want to save now.
They want to spend for particular
low-priced comforts.
The Immediate outlook Is good.
During the last three weeks steel
operations have been pushed up to
about 60 per cent of capacity. In
early July they were 30 per cent.
The improvement is based on wide
administration to have toUled 617.
599.572 94.

total of 12.632.182 75 for wheat con

They probably welcomed the
money, but this writer, who Is fright
fully old-fashioned In soma ways,
finds It Impossible to believe that In
the long run either farmers or any
body else will profit by getting paid
for NOT RAISING crops.
THAT, of course. Is an unpopular
idea at the present moment, and
avybctfy who expresses it u likely
should be brier and written In Ink.
A BREAKDOWN
assist In tho oxidation of carbohy
drates such as blood sugar. Dr. Har
ris shares this view. Dr. White found
in laboratory testa that vitamin B
lowers the blood sugar level. All these
observations and conjectures coincide
with the opinion of Drs. Abderhalden
and Werthelmer that vitamin B is
the oxidation catalyst concerned with
the utilization of glycogen, blood su
gar, carbohydrate.
As our knowledge of nutrition in
creases from day to day, It does not
seem quite so absurd as certain half
baked critics thought at first, to
propose that lack of vitamins In the
ordinary refined diet may have ft
good deal to do with the common
nutritional diseases mentioned. Ex
perience of physicians who think for
themselves Indicates that correction
of this fault of modern diet may
prove a. great preventive measure
against these common dlseaaes.

DAY BY DAY
By O. O. Mclntyre
NEW YORK. Aug. 29. Authors de
clare the most Interesting letters they
receive are from people they do not
know. Mark Twain often inquired
of his secretary:
"Any letters to
day from strang
ers?" He wanted
to read them
himself. A letter,
to be fascinating,
must have aban
don. The moment
one has responsi
bilities and re
ports to make,
the Jutoe of cor
respondence dr:es
up. There are no
sparkling surface.
Many yeara ago
there was a battleship
sillor who
wrote entertainingly to well known
authors while In the navy. His list in
cluded Kipling. Tarkington and Con
rad. All gladly replied.
One of my favorite correspondents,
receiving praise for his epistolary
froth, replied: "If I'd ever known you
I could not have written to you. Not
aa I have anyway." Among hla treas
ures was this simile: "My memory
for names is as confused as those of
an old post-office blotter."
. Without exception the better letters
preserved in books are those never In
tended to be published. Pepy'a diary
would have been forgotten long ago
had he known It would be a hand
down to posterity. Noel Coward's
choicest mots are said to be In his
personal correspondence.

They are still lost without Oliver
Hereford at The Players. Almost as
much as the actor Booth, its found
er, he was the club's tradition With
out conscious effort he was the source
of constant and dignified publicity
for the Institution. He was. in relax
ing momenta, always pursuing some
quaint fancy. Such as one day he
discovered the word "looking-glass"
was strange and intriguing by simply
repeating it twenty tlmea or so and
thinking about. He had the whole
club goofy with the Idea.
The Players is famous for the
equally famous men It has black
balled. Two dawn duels are said to
have been inspired by this in eailler
days. There Is a day once a year when
the membership deserts. That is Li

I have been "discovering" the so
sadly neglected charm of State:, Isl
and again this summer. Especially the
venerable sun-baked Richmond road,
the earliest white man's path on the
island. A seretch of It rises to the
highest peak of any land on the At

And there was a heavily timbered,
wooden-nailed tea room, called the
Old Perrlne House, which Sam Wal
ter Foss must have had In mind when
he expressed the poetical wish "to
live in a house by the side of he
road snd watch the race of men go
by." On a veranda drowsed a figure
out of an old Dutch canvas, puffing
at a goose-necked chlna-bo'led pips.
A tame goose waddled up honking a

LAND LiiWnSIA
SEATTLE, Aug. 29. (UP) Discov
ery of a hitherto unreported sub
merged mountain range, rising from
the floor of icy Bering sea. was re
ported to coast guard headquarters
today by Capt. L. V. Kellhorn of
the cutter Chelan.
Apparently the mountains are part
of the same general ranse whose
peaks form the long Aleutian Island
chain, extending from Alaska nearly
to Japan. Once It may have formed
a land bridge, from Asia to North
America, over which primitive tribes
men crossed. "

Ye Poet's Coraei
Glad I caught you old friend f-r I
am going away.
And I wanted to say farewell.
I am leaving thia town at the break
of day.
For ft land the world oalls H .
The wife? well, hardly, you we. Pal
o' Mine,
The lady who bears my name
Haa squandered my guilders and
drunk my wine.
But never has played the game.
I've given her all and she haa given
me naught.
Though I've seated her on a throne.
The taste of Love's bread I've so long
forgot.
That I've ceased to ask for the awne.
She certainly is lavish enough with
her smiles.
And with favor for others to gleom:
But she's never considered me even
worth while.
Except as a money machine.
So I've found me a woman at la.t
at mate.
a gin irom cne aarK siae or town.
But she's sick of it, too and it's not
too late,
Though we both were sinking down.
I'm willing to take the full brunt of
the blame.
But I want you to understand.
The Girl? well, she worth every bit
of the game,
God Bless you my friend for your
hand.

To An Army Plnne
As you soar above me I can not see
your beauty, for my eyes are blur
red by visions.
I see you, not as you are now In your
clean-cut beauty.
But a heap of burning wreckage upon
the ground. '
r see bursting bombs and the ruins of
burned cities.
I see dead men lying oold under txrs
and women fleeing befo-e a
hurricane of death.
Death that flashes down fr:m a sum
mer sky, waving a b:ocd cniked
mast behind It.
Back of all this I see broken bones;
Children crying for lost fathers;
Mothers with empty arms;
White tragic faces
Bleeding, broken heart.
Of all this, and more, are you a vm
bol? Thing of Beauty I Thing of Death I
