Member Audit Bnrean Circulation, New York Primary SIGNIFICANCE of the New York primary, from the Standpoint of national politics, is being and will be over-emphasized by New Deal press-ajrents. in the opin ion of Robert Ruhl, editor of who has just returned from an eastern trip that took him to New York. Mr. Ruhl, however, believes the election does show that Mr. of any competitors nationally. Here are excerpts from esting discussion of the New lork vote: The victory of Mayor La Guardla Is a victory tor hon esty and efficiency In government. It is also a defeat an overwhelming defeat for Tammany government in Greater New York i.e.: for dishonest and corrupt government. Looking forward a bit it may make La Guardia President of the United States, and It may remove for all time Tammany Hall as a force not only in New York but Democratic politics. (This however must be placed under the heading of counting several barn yards of chickens be fore they are hatched.) It marks the political decline of Senator Copeland, and the exit probably the final one of Al Smith from the political arena In the state ot New York. So, all In all, the voters of Greater New York did rather a good job with their ballot boxes on September tht 16th. The significance of the primary, from the standpoint of national politics, however, has been and will continue to be overemphasised by the New Deal press saents. Thousands hundreds of thousands dyed-in-the-wool Republicans, who detest Franklin D. Roosevelt and all his works, voted for La Guardia simply because they refused to vote against honest and conscientious government. It wasn't that they loved La Guardia so much, but they hated crookedness and corruption more. They saw a golden op portunity to knock the tiger for a loop and took It. The medical senator, therefore, and his issue of anti-New Dealism, was pretty much lost In the shuffle. While the New York result has heartened the New Deal leadership, which has been somewhat shaken in spirit since the supreme court defeat, it is nevertheless plain on its face that the election involved a great many things beside the issue of Aged Traffic Victims UNABLE to cope with fast-moving traffic as well as younger people, the aged die in much greater num bers as a result of automobile accidents. Statistics gathered by the Metropolitan Life Insur ance company show that 17 boys out of every 100,000 between the ages of 1 and 14 die each year; the death rate among men from 15 to 64 years of age is 42 per 100,000; at ages from 65 to 74 the rate rises to the high figure of 103 deaths in every 100,000. The situa tion among women is proportionately the same. As one might guess, there are a great many pedes trians among the aged victims. About 75 per cent of them were walkihg on the streets or highways when killed. Speed and quick pick-up of automobiles is too much for those who cannot jump out of the way. Their hope lies in the courtesy and carfulness of drivers. Husbands who left home in red hats, telling their wives to look up the best menu for cooking venison, may have been taking things a little too much for granted. The Investigators haven't told us yet whether Hugo Black wears a hooded nightie when he goes to bed. Mention was made of summer weather in this column at the end of the week. That was all that was necessary to bring on a nice shower.

WASHINGTON, Make no mistake, moves Mr. R. la Fsr East meana Sept. o these cautious taking In the U. S. policy is being evolved. In the end it will probably result in the withdrawal of American marines, and the American government Itself, from China. Officials deny that now. They have to. The howl that went up when the president merely sug gested Americana should get out or the way ot the bullets was a pointed notice that evolvement of policy might be safer than announcement of It. Aa a matter of fact. Slate Secretary Hull later felt constrained to mount his rostrum and say the l s. has no intention of surrendering any righta In China. But the otf-the-record talk here la a plain indication the present policy can lead to no other conclusion. For example, you hear authoritatively there Is only IJ50.UOO.000 of American Investment In Chins tabout one tenth of the British). You hear alao It would cost the govern ment far more than K'00.000.. 000 to protect that property ade quately in the present situation. You are Informed this 'would be taking the money of al tax payers to protect the foreign in vestmenta of a few. Clearly, the controlling officials here, would like to get 'their hands out of China. As they cannot now, they win let things work around to the point where they cm. It may take months, or years, but it will come. The story hss been flitting about that one ot Justice Black's senatorial colleagues went around the senate and privately assured doubters the Alabaman was not a Klanaman. You can not prove that. (Senators hesi tate to raise the question of per sonal veracity. They would do it if such a statement were ma.le publicly on the floor but not If It was made In private conversa tion. Senators are elanlsh that way.) The real explanation ot the astounding failure of the senate to Investigate a situation which even polltlcally-mlnded children in Washington must have aensed. seems to be simply this: The senators privately under stood Black had been a Klana- man years aico but had resigned from th order. They (particu larly the liberals and the White House democrats) liked Black's economic flews and forcibly prevented wnai tbev thoucht waa an old obsolete Klan issue from being; raised against a man they wanted for economic and political reasons. Cholera has killed more men than ballets In some wars. It ruined the Turkish army In the Crimean war. and It took a heary toll of British trooss In Turkey. Tbe news that this irrim spec ter Is now Joining hands with the Chinese and Japanese to make death easier in the Far East has npset public health authorities, although no an nouncements are being made.
