This column's prediction is it will be large. For with the net result no longer in doubt those boys who were on the fence are getting off. And need we sny on which SIDE they are getting offt Foolish question there is onlv one side that is ever considered under such circumstances, the WINNING side. . . Tes, it's all over but the shouting, but WHAT a shouting! We crawled out on a limb in our last, predicting Sheridan Downey of Ham-and-Egg fame would go far. We had no idea at the time how right we were. In fact he has already gone further than we ever had an idea anyone could go. He talked for seven hours straight or almost straight. Poor old Sheridan, if he had only KNOWN WHEN to stop! Had he called it a day Friday afternoon everyone would have given him a hand, and put him down as a "comer." But when he finally dropped from exhaustion, Monday evening, not a hand was extended to pick him up. We doubt if history records a clearer case of a freshman senator with a great chance, not only fumbling the ball, but knocking himself outl ' ..... But there will be another chance no doubt. Downey has brains, guts and political "it." Moreover the old gray Benate ain't what she used to be. Twenty years ago such a flop would have put the perpetrator on the blacklist for a couple of years at least. In fact Freshman Downey would never have been given his chance in the first place. Not so today. The senate is still i,te a down-town club, in many ways, but one black ball is no longer enough. And you can THANK, or blame, the New Deal for that. So unless this column is as wet as the Potomac (there is always a chance), the remainder of this historic "battle of the century", will consist of merely going through the motions. If the isolationists had a Webster or a Bryan, or even a Beveridge, in reserve, one would not be so certain. For the arms embargo bloc not only has a case, a true leader with another "cross of gold" speech, might very well transform senate sentiment overnight. But nothing is clearer than was the big shot, and let it be grand old man today is but a fact after observing the upper gallery for over a week, we REASON for placing an age limit ;he Supreme Court. The Senate where a strong voice, dynamic tremendous assets. And while the no doubt clear enough, no man when their LEGS have given out!) While on the subject here is have a week looking over either house of congress, without being impressed as never before that men are but children of a Following Mr. Downey's sad discussion ensued concerning the measure, presented by (another by the way), Senator Dnnnher During the following discussion, imam Johnson or Cali fornia engaged in a controversy with Senator Connolly of Texas, over the preparation of the bill, at the hands of the foreign relations committee, the burden of which was this: Senator Johnson: "You didn't invite us to your meeting, why should be have invited you to ours?" Senator Connolly: "You never invited us to your meetings why should we have invited you to OUHS?" That's not exag geration, that's the fact. So these two distinguished gentlemen, stood facing each other lika a couple of venerablo fighting cocks, slinking their fingers in each other's faces, their voices fairly trembling with emotion, over a question of picayune procedure, which we submit, might seriously concern a couple of boys in the sixth grade, but should hardly be a matter of concern, to adults, much less to two of America's cider statesmen. But this is only one instance. Many might be cited. And this is not offered in criticism so much as elucidation. So many things in 'matters of state, both here mid abroad, could be more clearly understood, if one never forgets that a vast majority of men high or low, NEVER completely grow up. ..... And Hiram Johnson, incidentally, is one of the most distin guished looking members of the upper house. He always has a high stiff white collar, a colorful cravat, a well fitting double breasted suit; but his crowning glory is the most extraordinary head of hair, we believe a man of his years ever possessed. Like an extraordinary sunset or a rare combination of clouds, it is one of those things that would never ho believed if placed accurately on canvas. He not only has apparently never lost a hair, but the effect is precisely like burnished silver, one can hardly believe it is hair, it loolcs so perfectly groomed and so METALLIC. Did we not have unimpeachable evidence to the contrary we would believe Hiram had benefited by some wig maker who is a genius. But we know it is all his, if it isn't a yard wide. And unlike the glamorous McNutt of Indiana, he doesn't even put bluing on it! R. V. R. NEW OFFENSIVE 10 By John A. Tnrrls, Jr. United Press Staff Correspondent MEMPHIS. Tenn., (UP) Aided by Major J.

MOST PEOPLE K.VOW Early in the century when amnesia was "aphasia" and certain criminals were Invariably "morons" there was widely prevalent a concept of like character to the effect that in order to be in telligible to the general public one must use only such word or allusions as a 12-year-old child understands. In the past 25 years Z have received letters from more than five million per sons, chiefly res idents of North America, but not a few from other continents, bearing on the question of personal health. Not all have asked for advice or Information; explanation would be the fact that many have offered it and some have given It In one mood or another. At first analysis It might seem extraordinary how small a proportion of these letters come from persons with arrested mental development. Oh, of course an adult with the intelligence of a 10-year-old child may write or type a short letter with out betraying deficiency, but as a rule feeble-mlndedneas is manifest. On second thought a jnore rational the child-minded portion of the population doesn't care so much for column written for readers of normal intelligence. Irrespective of the evident high I. Q. of these correspondents many of them are members of the various learned pro fessions it seems to me that the questions they ask and the Ideas they have and the assertions they make concerning hygiene, health and the prevention of disease only go to show that the popular health edu cation program up to the present has failed miserably In competition with effective obfuscatlon of the public by the nostrum and quackery interests. The determination of these Interests to keep the majority of mlslnforniedf people ignorant or concerning hygiene, health and pre vention of disease la backed by mil lions of dollars appropriated annu ally from their profits for this pur pose. For no one comprehends more clearly than the quack or the nos trum monger that a credulous, gul lible public and of course a nice discrimination In enforcement of such laws as may impede bxislness constitutes the most favorable mar ket condition for Humbug & Ho kum.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13. The Russo-artrman pact, which might better be called an alliance. Is the most Important political fact In the world today. It has already changed the balance of power In Europe. By shell-shocking the radical move ments, it is profoundly affecting the domestic politics of this and many other countries. It may, per haps, prove to be the foundation of great Russian and German em pires, which will dominate the world of the future as the English and French empires have dominated tho world we know. The detailed history of the pact will only be written when the Rus sian or German archives are open to the inspection of historians. From official information available in Washington, however. It is already possible to piece together a sort of skeleton story of this great event. The at .ry begins, strangely enough, shortly alter the last world wu, when Orpin ny and Russia were th parlah powers of the world. The allies were demanding that the so called "war criminals' be delivered for trial, and the German govern ment was resisting the demand. At a meeting of the German general staff, It was actually proposed that, before submitting to the alUes. the remnant of the Oerman army might take up Its arms again, retreat to a defensive line on the Elbe, and Invite the Bolsheviks to Join in and reoecupy Poland. The romantic notion, of courv. came to nothing, but tt was an interesting early symptom of the tendency toward cooperation between the Germans and the Red armies. During the "twenties, the little group ot German generals who were keeping the German army Mlve de spite the restrictions of the Versailles treaty formed a working arrangement with the Russian htsh command. German officers were secietly sent to Russia to be trained In use of the arms which had hern forbidden to Germany at Vervallles, while se- lected Rus-Man officers were taught j the lesson of Oerman efficiency.

A few of the more Intelligent cl-sa adopted this practice, but the wise-acres still pre fer to try whatever the nostrum and quackery interests are promoting this season for the familiar complaints of "tired feeling." "overwork," nerv ous exhaustion" In the earlier stages of CVD. One encouraging sign, at any rate, is that a far greater portion of the population today Is health-conscious than was the case twenty-five years ago. QUESTIONS 4 ANSWERS Silver Nitrate Stain Tell the lady who was so worried by the black stain left on the sink by the allver nitrate solution to wet the stain and then drop a . few crystals of oxalic acid on it, let It stand 10 minutes, wash off and the stain will be gone. (H. D. Q.) Answer Thank you. From the large file of correspondence incurred by the stain on the lady's sink I gather that she must have tried that, tho let us hope the suggestion Is effective. You say you've tried It and you know. But, tell me, did you succeed In breaking the tobacco habit. What with the tragedy of the Stain in the Sink (where the lady should not have gargled anyway) we. have lost sight of the purpose of using the solution of silver nitrate.

Beverly Hills, Calif. mands was maintained by members of the military intelligence services, and It was Stalin's discovery of this liaison which cost the lives of Tuka shevsky and the other Russian mar shals. Thus, a precedent at least existed for Russo-German cooperation when. In January of this year, planning his march Into Prague, Hitler ap parently anticipated the danger of Franco-British opposition. According to Dc-maree Bess, In the Saturday Evening Post, Marshal Goerlng had long been pressing for friendship with Russia. At any rate, German overtures were first made to Russia In January, and renewed again in March. On both occasions, the Rus sian foreign office gave Germany a cold shoulder. Lltvlnoff, the advo cate of collective security and a firm anti-fascist, was then in charge. On March 15. the German Invasion of the Czech state began. The Mu nich pact having been torn up. the appeasement policy was bankrupt, and, on March 20, English and Rus sian proposals lor Joint action crossed one another on the wires. The Rus sians suggested an Immediate con ference at Bucharest, to Include themselves, the English, French, Poles, Rumanians and Turks. The English suggested a declara tion, by themselves, the Russians, Poles and French, to the effect that an attack on the Integrity of any European state was an attack on the peace of all Europe, to be fol lowed by Immediate consultation as GolJIxtvl imiw Pact ifcni to ways and means of remedy by the four powers. The Poles and Rumanians, In con stant terror of their huge Bolshevik neighbor, protested Instantly and loudly, and the Russian and English proposals were both dropped. Nego tiations continued through April, however, with the English urging the Russians to announce guaran tees of the Integrity of the border states, and the Russians asking for an Anglo-Franco-Russian alliance. The French, more realistic and less timid than the England of Chamber lain, constantly pleaded with their ally to give the Russians their way. But the Poles and Rumanians were still violently restive. Chamberlain and certain other members of the English government were both sus picious of Russia and fearful that an alliance with her would Inflame Germany. The negotiations dragged on without result. Finally, on May 4, Maxim Lltrlnoff was dismissed from his post of com missar for foreign affairs. It was on that day that the English and French should have given up hope. Either immediately before or immediately after Litvinoff's dismissal, the for eign affairs vice -commissar, Potem kin, went on a secret mission to Warsaw. There he kept a rendezvous with General Syrovy, former jehlef of the Czech general staff, and the leader of the Czech element which accepted the German fait accompli. As a representative of his new mas ters, Syrovy made another overture to Russia. And whether the Potem-kln-SjTovy meeting caused or was caused by Litvinoff's fall, It was the moment when the Russians and Germans began talking turkey to gether. At The National Capitol with John W.

SECRETARY of the Interior Ickes doesn't know it yet, .but a bill has been drafted and is on the desk of Oregon's McNary, which will forbid Ickes from penny-snatching the pub lic. This year Ickes has started out to balance the budget by charging admission to everything he can. It costs a dime to visit the Lincoln museum in Ford's theater, where the president was shot; it costs a dime (and you must use the tradesmen's entrance), to inspect the Lee mansion at Arlington; it costs two-bits to visit Wakefield, where George Wash ington was born, etc. These are all public property, pub lic buildings, paid for and maintained by the taxpayers, but when a tax payer wishes to see these historic places he discovers that Mr. Ickes demands an admission fee. There is no charge to see Smithsonian Insti tution, National Museum of Natural History, the art galleries and other points of interest in Washington, but Secretary Ickes has no control over them. e TPEASON President Roosevelt Is eas- ing Elmer Andrews out of the Job of wage-hour administrator is be cause Andrews was a wash-out as an administrator. Mr. Andrews was so busy making speeches that he had no time to attend to his mail. Neither letters, special delivery, telegrams, could reach-him, as more than one member of congress learned. Those who penetrated his office found hun dreds of letters, unopened, piled upon his desk. He brought in a horde of youngsters out of law school ( New Yorkers), who worried employers everywhere with their rulings. Occasionally Andrews made an un diplomatic speech, such as when he said he would do what organized labor wants because the leaders had helped enact the wage-hour law. He was honest in his statement, but It was one of the reasons which paved the way for his exit. Unless something upsets the plan, the new adminis trator will be Colonel Phil Fleming, a West Pointer with experience as an organizer. GLENMORE KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON Pt. S51 Qt.
