Th Inability of Man to fly. high and handsome, or low and level, so doubt protected him from pot thou of careful humeri. Since fnt wai wounded by a nlmrod who mistook an auto license plate for a cougar, people suspect they look like what the trigger puller wants them to look like, when squinting down the barrel of his weapon. "In all his long years Bants Claus never Increased the standard of liv ing of a nation." Wherein, a great truth drlppod from the Hps of former President Hoover In a recent radio speech. A boy actor of Hollywood who re ceives (If you care to believe It) B9B.000, should have his pay raised. m a court suit, wherein his parents ought his custody, and to set aside his sdoptlon by an aunt, the lad testified, when saked If he had any mffectlon for his parents: "No," he ssld matter of faotly, they're strangers to me." Right then and there, In the now detested "rugged Individualist" dsys, there would have oeen spanking, without waiting for a writ to march the prodigy to the wooWshed.

They are riders bold as the knlghta of old (As an earlier atanse blaba) ut their rldln's done snd their wsges won Is toe Angeles tsulcsh, e-iPoeur, Good Government Wins 'T'HE expected happened. Mayor La Quardia wag slated to win re-election as ohief executive of Greater New Tork. He not only won, but rolled million voteg. This is a great victory for and a crushing defeat for Tammany Hall. It may make La Guardia president of the United States, and it may destroy Tammany as a dominant political power in the state of New Tork, for all time. THE first is less likely than the second. For while La Guardia, is not, as has often been stated, foreign born and therefore ineligible for the presidency; it is difficult to picture the Republican party ever accepting him as its standard bearer. While he is nominally s Republican, he is at heart, and in' his political philosophy, a Roosevelt new dealer. He was opposed in yesterday's election by Postmaster General Farley, Governor Lehman, and other Democratic many Hall put on the heat, and they couldn't or wouldn't openly break with the organization that had supported them, and technically controlled their own party machine in Man hattan. It was noticeable that none of the Democratic leaders yanked off any suspender buttons, in going down the line for Judge Mahoney, while President Roosevelt himself, maintained a "hands off" policy throughout. fF course reform movements in New York City, come and '" go, while Tammany goes on forever. And if political history should repeat itself, the old tiger will not have to lick his wounds very long, before the skies clear, the revival of civic morality passes, and "King Richard is himself again." But there are reasons to itself. As long as President Roosevelt controls the Democratic party, either within or without the White House, Tammany will have no patronage from La Guardia still in the saddle, New Tork. And judging by the results of yesterday's election up state, with a man of Governor Lehman's type in control, there will be slim pickings in Albany. Tammany lives on patroimge, and can't exist without it. If it can't pay off its organization workers, and subsidize the electorate, it can't get to first tion of proportional representation, in Greater New Tork, .Manhattan where Tammany rules, will no longer hold the balance of power and control will probably move across the river, where Tammany opposition is now firmly entrenched. In fact this ballot reform venture, if retained, may do more toward putting a quietus upon Ise. SO all in all, the final passing of Tammany Hall as a con trolling force in New Tork politics, state and city, looks hopeful. The triumphal progress of La Guardia, from New York's city hall, to the White House via Albany perhaps, doesn't appear so likely although stranger things have hap pened in politics, in the past and may again. Honesty and efficiency win in New York. Tammany re ceives a terrific, perhaps a fatal blow to the solar plexus. Thomas Dowey, the most forceful and fearless foe of crime and corruption in Manhattan history, becomes district attorney. Regardless of what the ultimate results may be, the people of Greater New York, can congratulate themselves, upon having done a swell job for themselves and for the cause of good government, in yesterday's election.

BEI.LV BREATHING Certain Individuals, whether they are regarded or regard themselves as "neurasthenic" or not. are unable to hold a deep breath for anything like the normsl pe plod (around 40 seconds). In moat Instances this Is directly due to some tmpslrment of elrculstlon or perhsps Impair- me n t of the lunga. One who la unsble to hold the breath more than 30 seconds may not have any specific heart or arterial disease, but he or she unquestionably needs medlcsl at tention. No matter what alls the person whoso breaking point In the breath holding test is below normal, and no matter what the main causo of the condition may have been, there Is good reason to believe that the essentlsl basla of the trouble la an oxiaoxygen deficit In the tissues, We might go Into the causca and the symptoms In greater detail hut, after all, that la not the layman's con cern. Medical men may find It en lightening to read the chapter on "The Nervous Control of Breathing" In J. S. Haldane's "Respiration" (Yale University Press, 1935). Haldane suggests that common aympotoms or complaints of "neu rasthenic" persons or those suffering from fatigue or shock are "analog ous to the exaggerated reflex restric tion In the depth of breathing and the Inability to hold the breath. All these symptoms seem to be due to whst Hughlings Jackson called 're lease of control'." Haldane then re fers to the shocks to the nervous system In connection with various In cidents of warfare and the part this played In the causation of "soldier's heart," "chronic gas poisoning" and permsnent "shortness of breath," but It waa equally evident, he adds, that "Infections of different sorts were also In part responsible for the con dition, the nervous system appsrently hsvlng been weskened by toxic In fluences." Only way I oan conceive that bacterial toxins could "weaken the nervous system Is by damaging the nervea or the nerve centers, pois oning them.

Calif. have had bad nights no longer re sort to the ancient formula, "a bit of the hair of the dog that bit them." Nowadays they depend most ly on bromides but sometimes "a bust In the arm," a needled drug, to carry them through the distress of a morning after. But In the Manny Chappelle days they knew that the wine agent kept open house at Rec tor's Sunday morning, where all the bloods of the town were welcome. Manny's recipe was a chlllled bottle of champagne and heavily spiced raw oysters. In extreme cases he sug gested an old-fashioned with a few drops of absinthe. And In no time at all he had everybody singing anl buying wine for all comers, which was, after all, the big Idea. One of the most amusing remarks I ever heard was from the mumbling Una of a hang-over, rt was in the men's bar at the Rite In Paris one sunny Easter morning when the whole city was on promensde. Save for myself and white aproned Frank and a figure sprawled over i tsble asleep, the bar was deserted.

Since you are a radical New Deal er, nothing, of course, would please you mora than that tha opposition go to sleep and not wake up till bal loting time next summer. That Is the way th dryi lost prohibition. That U the way to lose any battle. Hence you advise the Republicans to take that course. Why don't New Dealers take a nap? Why are they so feverishly at work right now weld ing the chain, that they can't even wait till the regular January aeasion of congress? Not a minute is to be lost If they are to place a controlling hand on everything before the next election. If the opposition would only go to sleep for six months all would be lovely. But who are these people who claim that the European brand of despotism la already established here? You are evidently "seeing things." But these swift, subtle, multiform, preparatory steps being taken, these persistent, determined policies that pave the way and pre pare the people for absolutism, while they cripple or hogtle the opposi tion, such things fully Justiry the warning cry that Is raised while that warning may be given wttliout fac ing a firing squad as a traitor, in some Soviet "purge." Another thing: Why Is dictator ship so commonly linked with fas cism? Far the darkest menace In this world today is Sovietlsm, not communism, which is merely the Soviet's weapon for destroying all other governments. This writer believes that Sovietlsm is tour times as powerful in this country right now as fascism and Nazism combined. Why Is the fas cist bogle man kept so constantly be fore our eyes? That la part of the game. The Soviet can work much faster If unobserved. They have a "passion for anonymity."

Comment on the Days News By FRANK JENKINS TpHE Japs, It Is reported from Brus sels, (where the nine-power treatv conference is about to begin) are willing to call off their war on China if they are permitted to keep what they've already taken. THEY RE willing to do this, they say, for two reason: 1. They don't really want to crush China. They Just want to force her to "co-operate" with Japan instead of with Russia. 3. They're afraid that if they get too deep Into China they may weaken themselves to the point where they will be open to a successful attack by RuAsla. piGURE it out for yourself But v e vruiuM ucnoBi llltatl IV sounds too honest to be true.

They are afraid that, in some ol those intimate chats on the sofa in the White House, Lord Cecil will win President Roosevelt over to the interventionist side of the scale and Inspire him to back up the famous Chicago speech with some kind of action. The day after election day last year, the Reverend Gerald L. It Smith was, according to his own statement, in duranca vile. The day before election day this year, he was consorting with the great (out side the New Deal) and had enough money to make a down payment, according to his own statement, on a $96,000 radio hook-up. Self-appointed head of the "com mittee of a million," the ardent evangelist -crusader is getting ready to go after the president, the New Deal, John Lewis, et al, hammer and tongs with the zeal he learned when he was a lieutenant of the late Huey Long. Mr. Smith may or may not build up a following as important or un importantpolitically as Fatner Coughlln's (whose network he is taking over) but he has a long-time program ahead. He believes the Anti-Saloon League was the greatest pressure group ever organized In American politics, but he says It made one mistake. They had a bad name. They put in "anti-saloon" and then put the ss loon out of business. And that put them out. Mr. Smith makes no such mistake. He ts antl-nothlng on paper. He is Just a "committee of a million" fighting against "concentrating au thority In the hands of the presi dent," a "tendency to establish an Industrial dictatorship" he Is by no means limiting the worlds he has to conquer. How much Impression his an nounced plans have made. If any, on the New Deal scene so far. It is hard to say. He might become an important factor. Secretary Wallace must be getting Jealous of the president. Anyhow, he has picked one of his ace aides, M. S. Elsenhower, as "co ordinator." Mr. Elsenhower, unlike secretary James, will limit his co ordinating to within the department Of 4 agriculture.
