POLITICAL FIGHT
Communications
The Lesson in Louisiana
To the Editor:
The recent tragedy enacted In
Louisiana is to be regretted by every
citizen In this democratic nation.
Will Americans be wise enough to
profit by the lesson therein con
tained? When any Individual or group of
Individuals, assuming dictatorship,
deprive the electorate of their con
stitutional rights of "free speech,"
"free assemblage" and "free press,"
they are either attempting to set up
a fascist or communistic form of gov
ernment. When a man or men attempt to
rule people In the United States
through fear, suppression and threats,
the outcome Is the same whether it
be in Louisiana, North Dakota,
Maine or Oregon. Such procedure
cannot help but lead to violence In
a nation that was founded In order
that all men might be "free and
equal' and that all might be guaran
teed the right to the "pursuit of life,
liberty and happiness," together with
the "bUl of rights" (free speech, free
yress and free assemblage) and relig
ious freedom.
At approximately the very hour
that this "tragedy" was being enacted
in Louisiana, Dr. John W. Studebaker,
commissioner of education, Washing
ton. D. C, was addressing, via the
radio, the people of this nation on
the need of education in order that
our democratic form of government
might be preserved. He said, in sub
stance, that "civic ignorance" was
much to blame for the maladminis
tration of government; that the
remedy and salvation of this nation
lay in preserving those right guar
anteed to us by the constitution
namely, "free speech," "free press,"
and "free assemblage." He went fur
ther and said that public schools and
public buildings should be used for
the people to meet in public forum
and discuss the "pros and cons' of all
questions; that no group of Individ
uals should be permitted- to force
their opinion down the throat of
their fellow citizens, at the same time
denying them the right to publicly
express their view. He further said
that, knowingly or not, those indi
viduals, regardless of what organiza
tion they might be members of, were
thus advocating fascist and commun
istic forms of government, and were
tearing down the democratic form of
government which they professed .to
be protecting.
Communistic and fascist form of
government axe nothing more or less
than dictatorships.
Will this "Louisiana tragedy"
awaken the American people to their,
peril? Will those people who belong
to groups like the "Liberty League."
"The Minute Men," etc., awaken to
the fact that dictatorship, such as
apparently advocate, can lead only to
assassination and murder and event
ually the downfall of a great dem
ocracy? Will thoee men who appar
ently advocate free speech, only where
they, themselves, are concerned, real
ize that they are digging their own
grave as well as that of this great
republic? May I remind you that
our constitution was written to pro
tect the weak as well as the strong?

"American Legion" and "Veteran of
Foreign Wars" continue to be blinded
to the true situation In this nation
by those Individuals dangling "im
mediate payment of the bonus" be
fore their yas? Would the dear old
"Grand Army Veterans," who were
parading in Detroit, today, permit
themselves to be used to assist in
tearing down this nation, which the
blood they shed kept Indivisible?
I ask you to alt quietly and think,
where does the road of dictatorship
lead to? That road, down through
the age, has, always, led to violence,
assassination, murder and bloodshed
for innocent and guilty alike.
Whither are we bound, to oblivion
like some of the great empires of the
past, or, are we to remain a dem
ocracy, forever, a beacon of light and
hope to all mankind?

NEW YORK, Sept. 12. Out on
Queens boulevard near Forest Hills
there haa sprung up something en
tirely new In depression entertain
ment. The effect
ia Southern
plantation, crude
and country,
bearing the name
of "De South."
It's lit by oil
torches and lan
tern hung from
whiffle-trees.
Admission Is
free, a plate din
ner SO cents and
tin cups of beer
are dispensed
rrom a corn-crib
bar. Off-side Is a scrubby corral with
and old nag roaming around. The en
trance is over an old-fashioned four
step stile and benches and tables are
scattered picnic style.
The orchestra pit Is a dug-out In
a haystack where black muslciana In
overalls and straw hats play kazoos.
The only other Instrument Is a gui
tar. The waitresses are garbed in
pickaninny dress. A couple may dance
all evening for a dollar and the floor
is well filled.
The whole enterprise Is quartered
on a long abandoned lot and prob
ably represent an investment of not
more than $1,000. Yet from the open
ing It has proved a winner. The im
mense free parking space Is filled
with limousines of Long Islanders
stopping for a bit of slumming.
No poet In the world lives so lux
uriously a D'Annunzio. Hi villa on
the picturesque mountainside at Lake
Oarda, Italy, Is one of the most mag

a pretentious entrance, like a refined
gateway to Luna Park. One the high

gallant days In Flume. He ha two
planes, five cars, fifteen dogs and an
army of servants that fairly tumble
over each other. All at the expense of
the Italian government.
Robert Sherwood, the playwright, la
reputedly among the most welcome
American visitors to Vienna. His sym
pathetic play, "Reunion in Vienna,"
contributed largely to hi popularity.
A correspondent, visiting there,
writes: "My first visit since 1928 and
what a change. No one smiles. They
just keep hoping. On the anniversary
of the Dollfuss assassination the
whole town paused In mournful sil
ence. Everything was dark save for
the two candles that flickered In ev
ery available window. It's the most
lasting personal sorrow I ever be
held."

Aviators Evidence
Interest In Novel
Zenith Wincharger
The propel lor of the new Zenith
Frepower Wincharger which closely
resembles an airplane propellor at
tracted the attention of a group of
professional aviators who stopped at
Prultt's Melody shop several days ago
to examine It with Interest, according
to Almus Prultt.
The Wincharger Is a windmill-like
generator which keeps a 6-volt stor
age battery charged indefinitely with
only a few hours of turning In the
breezes each day. A breeze as slow as
10 miles an hour Is sufficient to set
it going.
In conjunction with the new Ze
nith battery radios, which run off a
storage battery only no B or O bat
teries required, the Wincharger gives
one of the cheapest forms of enter
tainment possible to obtain. Not only
Is the new Zenith Frepower system
the most economical of all, including
AC systems on the lowest power rate,
but the result are better, as a rule,
than can be obtained with a good AC
radio, owing to the lack of power
line interference, according, to Almus
Prultt.
The new Zenith battery radios have
full short-wave that really works, full
automatic volume control, continu
ously variable tone control , almost
unlimited sensitivity and splendid
tone quality.

Smith, "that, since -he had appointed

he should appoint one to investigate
his assassination."
Byrna recently designated a com

Louisiana politics to determine
whether a "Republican form of gov

dominance and legislation.
Hla action was in conformity with
a house resolution, generally Intend
