Hints to Office Seekers rESCRIBED'as an infallible guide to political success a new book, "The Politician," by J. H. Wallis, hag been written fop vote-getting neophytes who would rise up to or beyond the courthouse. The hi-falutin' principles of political science are boiled down to the understanding of precinct committeemen by ex posing the innnrds of the political game. The text book for office seekers is designed to start aspirants off on the right foot by giving them hints on what office they should run for. Once the candidate is in the campaign for nomination or elec tion, points are outlined on how to garner votes and at the same time avoid bnby-kissing, hand-pumping and back-slapping. If one's opponent resorts to plain or fancy mud-slinging, rank and file chiseling may be started to insure X's marked on the right spot on the ballots by the dear people. Tactics on making breakable promises- and ask-and-ye-shall receive planks are outlined, as well as suggestions for catch slogans that bring results. , Mr. 'Wallis describes the shenanigans of sucb master cam paigners as "Ham" Fish, "Alfalfa Bill" Murray, "Bossy" Gillis, Huey Long, F. D..R., Gifford Pinchot, Al Smith and John Nance Garner all of whom rose above the courthouse. And for us, the peepul, the timely book exposes what we should not know to insure success for budding or seasoned pol iticians. R. M. R. Two Socialists 'T'OTOHIKO Kagawa, "Japan's No. 1 Christian," visited Kansas City this week, spoke to 23,000 persons and wended his way on to Springfield, 111., .where he probably will speak tn as many more: But what we would really like to hear is not Kagawa speaking to a crowd, but a private conversation be tween Kagawa and Josef Stalin. If you ore an Epworth league or T. M..C. A. meniber, yon already know that Kagawa is more or less of a socialist. The Kansas City papers called him a "Japanese socialist," but they probably are wrong. lie probably is not a Socialist with a cap ital "S" for that would mean that he puid dues to the Socialist party; he probably" is a socialist in the sense that he believes llie sacredness of privato property hag been greatly over-estimated. Possibly he doesn't think the government Bhould own and run all a country's businesses, but he, on the contrary, does not believe that a man with an over-developed acquisitive in stinct can get into heaven any easier than a camel can go through the eye of a needle. Kagawa is one of those individuals who take the New Testament seriously. e took it so seriously that he gnve away his worldly goods, and the money he receives for lecturing he gives to charities. Once he was put in prison for his "radical," ideas. . ' i THAT is why wo would like to overhear Kagawa and Josef Stalin talking over the ultimate milounium, Kagawa and Stalin are alike in their hatred for selfish rich men, their love for mankind, their faith in their missions, and their Utopian ideas of a future ideal world. What fun it would be to hear Stalin and Kagawa going at the doctrines of equality and fraternity, from their radically different perspectives I They represent two types which we have had with us always. Stalin believes in violence, Kagawa in non-violence. Stalin be lieves in restriction, Kngawa in freedom. If they met, Japan's preacher might become too vociferous in favor of his doctrines of freedom. He might too violently uphold non-violence. N" that ease, what a perfectly colossal joke it would be if Stalin turned him over to some OGI'U's for expounding subversive doctrines. And what a perfectly tremendous joke it would be if the OGl'U would murder him. How Pontius Pilate might spin in his gravel Emporia Gazette. NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O. O. Mclntyre b ... NEW YORK.

I'm not abating one Jot or tittle what I have said about the neurotic hoax, but tt 1 really difficult to tell some people anything. For Instance, 1 know from your own ' testimony that a lot of you assume t am "agin" psychiatrists, since I have no use for "nerve spec ialists" -but that's your mistake. A psychlstrist'l a physician who limit hla p rant Ice to the diagnosis and treatment of mental conditions. Good ness knows, there Is plenty of work for such specialists. So don't get pat ronizing with me. When I say "nerve specialists" I mean neurologist, not psychiatrist. To one with a knowl edge of physiology and pathology "nerve specialist" in the popular sense of the term Is as ridiculous as a spec ialist in that tired feeling. If or when I am crowned King of Yankeeland, all doctors holding themselves out as neurologists or nerve specialist had better duck. I like a Joke as well a you do, but there Is such a thing as carrying a Joke too far. The A. M. A. carries thia one too far when It "rec ogntse" as a legitimate specialty "neurology" but refuse to recognlzo as a specialty private preventive medi cine, plastic surgery, heart, gastro nterology, and other fields In which good physicians specialize In spite of the A. M. A. politicians who would discourage them. - . Medical ethics and tradition sanc tion the specialty of pediatrics, dis ease of childhood, and a a large portion of the population remains in that category until voting age, pedi atric makes an attractive field for pampered youths to enter In practice young doctors who have indulgent mama or rich aunt or mayhap a wife who will support them for the five or ten year it takes to build up a practice. Yet the same medical ethics end tradition blindly declines to recognize a more logical and In deed more essential specialty, namely, geriatrics, dlsenses of old age. Of course the medical profession ha an excellent reason for this strange dis crimination; tn.faet two reason: first, the study of geriatrics ts comparative ly new, and therefore probably should be condemned: and second, baiblcs are easier to manage and much better paying patients. Mine Is a strong stomach and I oan stand quite a lot. but please excuse me a moment when a young mother who 1 Just able to support a house maid get a snobbish notion that she must run to a child specialist every time the baby squawk snobbery Is too much for me.

Practically all differences are com posed In private. When the bills are brought forward, they are already backed by a staggering majority. That leaves little to talk about and nothing upon which a flrst-claso fight can be started. Resistance by the minority Is useless and often routine. The reason behind this unusual strstegy, of course, Is that the presi dent wants no clashes In a campaign year.
