TUESDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1931 CURTIS IN POLITICS Just when the Republican party and most of the Democrats had given up hope, Vice-President Charles Curtis finally made his long awaited choice between candidacy for the vice-presidency and the senator's chair from his native state of Kansas. The eyes of the Kansas political ranks have been focused on Curtis ever since it became known that he was considering entering the race for his old office as Kansas senator now held by Senator George McGill, Wichita Democrat. Newpaper men in the nation's capital, and those in Curtis' home town of Topeka, have been trying for weeks on end to get the Vice-President to commit himself one way or another, but not until yesterday did he make a formal announcement. Many friends of Curtis supposed that he would seek his old chair in the senate, and his announcement in favor of his present office leaves a wide and varied field from which to pick an opponent for McGill, who will doubtless be denominated by the Democrats. In fact the field includes so many factional possibilities that it may mean plenty of concessions from different Republican wings if the Republican party is to concentrate on one candidate. Henry Allen, Homer Hoch, Clyde Reed, and Ben Paulen have been mentioned for the nomination, but within a comparatively short time, the Republicans probably will agree on a candidate if they wish to maintain party solidarity. However, it wouldn't seem wise to wait too long. There's just a chance that someone might ankle up on both parties. News dispatches report that an officer in the Peruvian army flew from Chile to Peru to fight a duel with the president-elect of the Peruvian republic. And after that, we wouldn't even call the King of Abyssinia a dirty name. A DISAGREEMENT George Washington is getting more publicity lately than he has received since his press agent invented the slogan, "Father of His Country." At present, front page space is being devoted to a controversy between two men, one a Kansas lawyer and the other a Harvard professor. They are arguing as to whether Washington swore or not, whether he drew a regular salary, or just got his expenses paid, and a few more vital problems concerning our venerable first president. Hutchinson, the home of F. Dumont Smith, Kansas lawyer who doesn't like things said about his pet hobby, Mr. Washington; and Harvard University and Washington, D.C., which harbor Professor Albert Bushnell Hart, prominent historian who wrote the questioned pamphlet, are all getting their share of the advertising too. Washington, D.C., probably is hearing lots about Hutchinson for the first time, and Hutchinson probably is growing sentimental about dear old Harvard. The newspapers are printing plenty of news on the subject. Professor Hart and Lawyer Smith are placing their names before the nation, and the news-reading public has something to talk about, for after all, everyone knows George Washington. Every person, town, or object involved seems to be getting something out of the deal, and we may go so far as to say, if this fight keeps up, that it may help fight the depression, relieve unemployment, settle foreign and domestic troubles, and a perhaps bring a championship basketball 'eam to Kansas. Dino Grundi, the Italian foreign minister, says that he missed his spaghetti more than anything else during his recent visit to the United States. Well, we can easily understand the signor's gnawing hunger. Think what it would be if you were stranded in Italy and couldn't get ham and eggs. HOPE IN MANCHURIA With negotiations for the establishment of a neutral zone in one of the most important of Manchuria's disputed districts progressing favorably and the Peiping-Mukden railroad preparing to reopen for traffic, hopes for a settlement of the Sino-Japanese controversy are now more promising than at any time since the beginning of the trouble. China has accepted the League's proposal for the neutral zone without hesitation and Japan, seemingly dropping the belligent attitude which it has maintained throughout the affair, appears to be negotiating toward the same end. Possible trouble between Japan and the United States over an unfortunate di- somatic complication also seems t have been averted. Peace in Manchuria, in consequence as it may seem, holds benefits of widespread importance. Active warfare in the Orient probably would not halt there. Russia would almost certainly be drawn into any general conflict and there the old system of alliances would once more spread out its tentacles over the world. Soviet military activity would arouse the nations lying east of Russia and holding the friendship of France. The result might be a second 1914. Another great war would be the least desirable thing which could be forced upon us. Our energies are needed for rebuilding, not for further destruction. Our Contemporaries Depression's Silver Lining Depression A playback in the IBI depression has been found by those who once bewailed the passing of the family hearth. Depression is forcing Americans to stay home during the holidays and in the places of the theatre and clubs. At least this is indicated in a report from the Washington Post. Taxes on club and theater admissions dropped $90,824 during a three-month period between July and October 2016, but the revenue over the same time. The revenue from playing cards, however, increased about $25,000. Perhaps the house-the-murders would prefer hearing a report that Cardinal Nicholas Pichardy had increased rather than that of cards, but at least they can get some pleasure in knowing that fun-loving Americans are spending more time under the light of the family change- Tobacco taxes, too, fell off $8,738,783 and the return from non-beverage spirits went down approximately $200,000, according to the report. Of course that is bad news to tobacco and spirit manufacturers but to the moralists it is good news; over rips in leaders, depression sky - Columbia Missouri. NATURE'S RIVAL Wise as well as beautiful is the woman who chooses one of these Nature's Rival foundations. For she seizes comfort and perfect support along with grace to wear the new clothes. By clever moulding of the figure, these garments give every one of your lifeful elegance. Some styles, like those shown above, are boneless. Others use light stays to obtain the desired restraint.
