A great hue and cry has been raised
against Governor Wlnshlp by one ele
ment of natives. Another group
blames Washington. One talks about
the repression of civil liberties (a
charge reiterated by Arthur Garfield
Hays, who headed an Investigation
commission of the civil liberties un
ion). Another begs for a stronger

Bennett Champ Clark of Missouri,
They have their act rehearsed to a

He's on his feet whenever there's a
chance. You may miss Burke, but he

Governor Wlnshlp. who Is also
general. Is called too militaristic by ; for flHbU8tw by the bnra opponents.
It wasn't any surprise to Clark. An
ancient rule had been dug up pro-
political elements other than the na
tlonallsts. The businessmen, and their
colleagues In the United State who
deal with them, less Interested In
politics than profits, would like a
stronger hand. They would not only
swallow a general, but would be glad
of a whole army. They sigh, audibly,
for the good old days before 1934.

Of course, sending the army down

Dollars and democracy 1
Just aiiother hot weather problem
for your old Uncle In Washington.
The blEge.-t ?how in Washington lc
still runninct to standing room only
the court fight in the senate.
It's exciting, the senate chamber's
air-cooled, and It Xsn't a bad place
to spend your vacation.
But the real show Is going on be
hind the scenes.
It combines a display of the per
fect rrwirdinstlnn of tnm on the
htbltlng any senator from talking
more than twice on the subject In
the same legislative day. The Mis-
sourlan and his colleagues knew It
was coming. They have. It is said, the
antidote ready to apply when needed
All of this, however, doesn't scare
the administration a bit.
The president, as Indicated earlier
in this column, believes that a fill
buster will turn the country against
the opposing senators. If they Insist
on staging a marathon debate, he
will simply betake himself to his
yacht or his homestead and let them
talk themselves to death.
The way senator Clark plans to get
around the new appropriation of the
old rule to stop the filibuster by al
lowing each senator to talk but twice
on any subject Is simple, but effec
tlve. New amendments to the bill will
be Introduced by the opposition sen'
a tors as desired. An amendment la
new subject and so the talk can go
on forever as long as amendments
hold out.

Autobiographies nowadays are writ-
en when the authors are still young
and virile and not, as used to be
the case, when they are old and se
nile. Perhaps that Is why they have
Igor and a keen perception not yet
dulled by decadence, a frankness that
Is refreshing and a realistic viewpoint
not yet softened by the mellowing
Influence of old age.
Whatever their shortcomings, the
autobiographies that have been pour
ing from youthful pens are dynamic.
Such a book ts Present Indicative
which tells the story, of Noel Cow
ard's life even though the author
hasn't lived long yet. Coward is not
yet 40 but even as years go he had
attained International fame as play
wright, author, composer and libret
tist.
Present Indicative, which Is prov
ing exceedingly popular In Medford
public library. Is a candid biography.
It tells of Cowards rise from pov
erty, or his brief exposure to formal
schooling, of his early Jobs as a boy
actor. It Rives frank analyses of the
numerous celebrities who pass
through its pages.
Sprightly Written
Like some of Coward's plays. Pres
ent Indicative ts at times shallow
but never Is It dull. It Is a sprightly
written bok, always freBh and vivid.
Another library book that has been
considerably in demand Is Be Glad
You re Nenrotic, by " Dr. Louis E.
Blsch. It la a volume that should be
especially consoling for persons who
do not fit into a mold, who are not
average."
Oenlua comes from the neurotics.
Dr. Blsch says. "Normal persons."
he declares, "are Invariably without
imagination. In the extreme they
are stupid . They are frequently
wiaeiy esteemea, grow rich but never
creative."
The book Is an Interesting research
Into human behavior. Uncluttered
wixn scientific vermage, it is a very
readable volume.
Mining Rush Recalled
A library volume possessed of a
quaint charm Is Suns Go Down, by
Flannery Lewis. The book centers
about the life of the author's grand
mother who, though a New Englander
or rigid upbringing, married lmput
slvely and set out with her husband
for the Comstock Lode when the
mining boom attracted hordes to the
Nevada fields. The grandmother Im
mediately attained a certain disttnc
tlon by being the only woman In the
mining town who was not a prosti
tute. ,
Although she never liked the mush
room city with Its bawdy life, she
refused to leave when the mining
boom collapsed and has continued to
lead a solitary life in the srhost town.

Her shrewd observations are recorded
by the author, who manages to depict
quite vividly the life on the Com
stock Lode when life was raw and
ragged. The style Is quiet and dig
nified yet, paradoxically enough,
strong and forceful.
In the fiction field, Conrad Rich'
ter's The Sea of Grass Is much In de
mand at the library. Essentially a
tender love story. It depicts the
southwest of pioneer days and re
calls a life now known only to fading
memories.
