Objections to changing the pri mary election from May to Septem ber are now coming faat and fre quent. It la claimed the farmer, would be too busy pitching hay In September to vote. Thla la alao the month In which more Intereat la apt to be mantleated In ahootlng deer than nominating a clean Demo crat for conatable. It la also argued that If a farmer waa really In ear nest about voting, nothing ahort ol becoming enmeshed In the Internal mechanism of a thieahlng machine would keep him from the polls. May also has Its detriments. Agricultu rists have been known to atop greas ing a mowing machine, with the alfalfa ready to cut, to hold com munion with Nature and a fishing pole. The chief conern over a farmer being too busy to vote, cornea from the metropolis, and fears he will not mske It to the September voting re groundless. They have never seen them hieing In the harvest time to wrestling mstches. Pomona, atock shows, committee meetings. Santa Claua nights at the movie, and whatever offers excitement. The farmer'a wife Is more apt to be too busy putting up peachea to vote. Hoblas Deuel, the woodyard ty coon, Is splitting the wind In new automotive go-cart.

U ) Looking Forward TIE Republican national convention at Cleveland this year will certainly be worth the price of admission. The fight for the presidential nomination, will probably oe the most thrilling and sanguinary contest, since the Chicago convention of 1920 which resulted in the 11th hour victory of Senator Warren G. Harding. ' The two outstanding candidates when that convention open ed were General Leonard Wood and Governor Lowden of Illi nois. But for the single-handed efforts of one man, one or the other of these two estimable gentlemen would have been victori ous. That one man was Senator Borah of Idaho, who by spilling the beans concerning the purcnasing or soutnern delegates, naa the satisfaction of seeing Messrs. Wood and Lowden kill each other off. AT this writing it appears inevitable, that political history will repeat itself. Senator Borah promises to be an even more pestiferous fly in the ointment this year than he was 16 years ago. For he will be an active candidate for the nomination himiclf, with a sizable bloc of delegates, which he will be able to control, until he desires to release them. There is little likelihood the senator from Idaho will be able to secure the nomination himself. But there is every likelihood, he will be able to prevent the nomination of any candidate he doesn't like. And he won't like any candidate put forward by former President Hoover, or the Hoover faction in the Republi can party. IN short, the internecine conflict between the Wood and Low Hen fnrnea in 1920 Bromines to be duplicated this year, by a similar conflict between the Borah and Hoover forces, at the Cleveland convention.. It is a ten to one bet, neither will win; but it is equally certain, they will succeed in killing each other off. Borah doesn't like Hoover, and Hoover doesn't like Borah, but thev will both be factors in the convention, which must be reckoned with. Their struggle for control, during the first part of tho convention at least, will supply the fireworks. And then if political history DOES repeat itself, and the inevitable deadlock has been reached, the time will arrive for the ushering in of the dark horse, some acceptable candidate, behind whom the opposing factions can unite. WHO will it bet Knox, Landon, Dickinson, Vandenberg, or some horse even darker, who like Harding, 8t this period bofore the 1920 convention, had not been seriously considered? No one knows. Any prediction at the present time, is only a guess and a poor guess for between now and June so much may happen to alter the situation. . Still Looking Forward ONLY slightly less interesting than the fight for the nomina tion will be the struggle in the committee named to write the party platform. Two of the chief indictments against the Democratic party will undoubtedly be extravagance, the waste of money, the mounting national debt, etc, etc., and Radicalism, socialism, crack-potism, recklessly casting the ship of state adrift from the solid moorings of true Americansim. The first will call for a ringing declaration in favor of fed eral economy, balancing the budget, sound money, etc., etc. The second will call for an equally ringing declaration in favor of upholding that sacred citadel of our liberties, the Con stitution of the United States. . So far so good. But, A SSUMING when the convention convenes, unemployment will still be a major problem (eight or ten million people still out of work, and in need of food and shelter), will the Republican convention go on record as opposed to a continua tion of federal relief, or a transfer of all relief from the govern ment to the local communities, and, Will the convention take a definite stand opposing any modi fication of the Constitution through amendment, seeking a further centralization of power, in the hands of the chief execu and tho congress in Washington t There will be strong pressure brought to bear, for both these policies, and to be consistent in its blanket opposition to the Roosevelt program, such committments, specific in character, should be made, but here is our prediction: Few if any of them will be incorporated in the Republican platform. W HTt Because the excessive expenditures of the Roosevelt ad ministration have been for one paramount purpose, RELIEF, and until conditions in this country become far better than they are today, no administration in this country, Democrat or Re publican, would DARE to discontinue that relief. Nor is it probable any administration" would go on record as opposing a modification of the fundamental law, securing an Hmendmont to the Constitution, for any purpose, farm relief or what not, whieh in the opinion of the people of this country as a whole, hsd become necessary for this country's growth, stability and higher welfare. IN fact the Democratic party can, and probably will, pledge itself to sound money (certainly American money today IS sound). It will undoubtedly advocate a balanced budget, and at soon as the necessity of wholesale relief passes and business tnkes up the slack, the budget will be balanced. It can also pledge itself to monetary stabilization, just as soon as world conditions render stabilization, a stimulant rather than a deter rent to American recovery. Hut none of these things can be or in the opinion of the present administration should be, done NOW, yO sum ups That fight in the Republican Tlatform committee promises to be a tough one, because, m the discussions pro and eon, con tinue, it will be increasingly apparent, that lambasting the Roos"velt program, from A to Ir.iard is ONE things presenting a concrete, definite and specific program of procedure to take its place is quite ANOTHER !" So we predict the final platform will be essentially a nega tive rather than a positive declaration, and instead of the New Peal being knocked for a loop, as the conservative element in the party would like, (and tn!k of doing now) it will by impli cation at least come off, surprisingly well.

FOR rARALVSlS THERE IS NO END Unlike nevspaper doctors And cer-. Uln health r.epartment savants, level headed pht'clan are atlll in doubt as to whether the paralysis which no? rarely occurs after Pasteur treat ment la due to the vaccine In jected or to the nrAllimntlVB rabies which the Pasteur virus purports to pre vent. The health department s s v snt. on the one hand, appears to know Intuitively or by divination that auch para lytic accidents sre not due to the Pasteur virus; while I, on the other hand, can't savvy any other rational explanation for It. Put, remember, folks. I am a newspaper doctor, a-nd that's pretty low as status Is rated In the nvdlcal world. I mean s doc tor who holds forth In the news papers regularly snd unblushlngly Is practically a quack whereas If he Jumps In only when a good occasion presents he Is a leading or well known representative of the profession. The matenoJ. Injected In the Pas teur treatment to prevent alleged rabies Is s variable suspension of dried spinal cord of a rabbit which has died of some hypothetical disease pre sumed to be rabies which was Inocu lated Into the original rabbit from s dog which was presumed to have died of rabies. It Is all quite complicated and perhaps a bit too deep for a mere newspaper doctor to grasp any way, but I have- said enough to give you s, rough Idea of the nature f Pasteur treatment, and to make s few more bitter enemies for myself. Ordinarily I should call It a day. but there Is still something what was I ?olng to say' oh yes, earnest, level headed physicians at ill give Pasteur treatment to persons excited about dog-bites, and on the same basis up snd coming practitioners now believe In and administer convalescent se rum ss a remedy In poliomyelltla, or virus or vaccine of one kind or an other as a means of Immunizing s?alnst poliomyelitis.

Prince of Wales, eldest son of George, waa IMME DIATELY proclaimed king. Under the theory of royalty (which waa dlacsrded by the founders ot our nation) that fact la very Im portant Indeed. - WHY la It Important? In order to answer that ques tion, It U necessary to go clear back to the beginnings of the In stitution of hereditary royalty, which Is one of the oldest Institutions in the world. We of America are contemptuous of royalty, with all lta silly trap pings, .but an Institution that has endured aa long as that of royalty must have hsd some good reason for existing It did. - The Institution of hereditary king ship, under which the eldest son or nearest blood relative of the dead king becomes IMMEDIATELY the new ruler provided the world wltn some measure' of - STABILITY Or GOVERNMENT. 4 BACK In the dim beginning ol time the chief was the ruler. The chief won his offioe by the strength of his arm and the cun ning of hla brain. While he LIVED, there was gov ernment and established authority, and things went on from dsy to day much aa they had gone before; but when the chief DIED, and while a new chief was establishing his title by means of his strong arm snd his cunning brain, there was ANARCHY, . Humsn beings learned early that under ANY kind of government they are more secure In their lives, per sons and property than under NO GOVERNMENT, QO, seeking security for themselves, humsn beings evolved the sys tem of hereditary rulershlp, under which by common understanding and consent the eldest aon of the dead chief became Immediately ana automatically the NEW CHIEF, thus avoiding the period of anarchy and bloodshed and universal insecurity while a new chief was establishing his title to power. It was thus that the Institution of royalty had lta beginning. IfOU will note, of course, that under the Institution of royalty a SON becomes of Immense Im portance, because if the dead chlel had no son the line would be broken and there would be CON TENDERS for the office and title ol chief. That Is why, down through the ages, the birth of a aon to the king haa been cause for popular rejoic ing and why the LACK of a royal son haa been regarded as a public calamity. So, It follows, one of the first duties of a king Is to beget htmsell a son. NOW, please, note this dispatch from London: "The British Em pire Is without a queen and with out a Prince of Wales." - The queen of England Is the wife of the king of England, and the Prince of Walea la their eldest son. The new King Edwsrd Is a BACH ELOR. SO. you see. the new King Edward haa his Job cut out for him. While he was only a prince. It was permissible for him to be a gay and carefree bachelor, wandering over the world aa the goodwill salesman of hla empire, the most envied ol "catchea" and aa such the qusrry DR. A. R.

Those who are closest to him say the Washington stories are correct. It waa not a specific Incident which caused him to resign, but an accumu lation of spending policies with which he could not go along. Incidentally, the resignation was presented long before It was announc ed. He let Mr. Roosevelt hold It up and fix the time. Whether Al Smith haa lost weight In his old New England atronghold Is & matter of dispute among the au thoritative. Some hay his row with Father Coughlln last year has hurt him. It Is generally agreed that Coughlln has fallen off In these paits. but probably not as much as In the rest of the country. Townsendltes. are on the up. Tne movement la comparatively- new In these regions and still has the ad vantage of fresh appeal. Such an edu cational leader as the assistant su perintendent of schools In Boston (Dr. Frederick Gluts) came out for the plan 'a few days ago, although he doubted Its "feasibility" his word at the present time. The fact seems to be that the Townsendltes will be a surging poli tical Influence in the developing presidential campaign, but not a dominant one. The most thoroughly retired of all retiring Bostonlsns Is probably the most Influential one Professor Frankfurter. Hla advisory relationship with the president Is confidential, and he lives his life accordingly. He handlea his classes dally at the Harvard university law school, slips off to Washington occasionally, get ting In and out of the White House without publicity. There are also tele phones available to be used. With It all. he lives In the cloistered seclus ion of the confidences of his clique of friends here. In New York and Wsshington. all the young lawyers he has helped along. He does not talk freely with news men, even to two of his good friends on Boston papers. Concerning political-economic subjects, he lets hlc books speak for him, and they speak loudly enough. He Is highly respected locally, even by his political adver saries. No national political character has been so elusive since Colonel House functioned In a somewhat similar, but more official way, for Woodrow Wil son.
