Hoover and The LaFollette Bunch About a dozen Senators of the LaFol- stripe in both parties announce that they favor an extra session of Congress.

It is difficult to suggest a reason for such an attitude, except to antagonize the President by holding up eleven big supply bills carrying appropriations required by the Government. In order give impetus to business recover)' by having no session of Congress between March and December, the President will urge the adoption of a continuing 1 resolution which will renew in the fiscal year the appropriations current in the present, which ends June 3D, 1931. On this proposition the country will be enthusiastically behind Mr. Hoover. With a holiday adjournment taken out there is but little of this session left.

That is the best news of the winter. Lucas and Morris The statement of Robert H. Lucas, the new executive director of the Republican National committee, that Senator Norris, of Nebraska, is not a Republican except in name, seems to be well within the facts. If Norris Is not a Republican, Lucas was justified as the official representative of the party in opposing his election. The fact 'that Norris voted for Smith lor President is not the Important charge against him.

Such breaches are frequently overlooked as they may be the result of a differe'nce of opinion on single point. But Norrifi has been at outs with his party for more than ten years. He also has a right to pursue such a course, if he sees fit. But has he right to persistently oppose a party and its administration of the country's affairs and still, claim that he is a member in good standing and entitled to the Important committee chairmanship which was assigned him as a Republican? As President Hoover is responsible for the governmental policy during his term of office, it seems there be no question that he is entitled to the support of his party in Congress and, that such honors and power as are associated with the chairmanships should be thrown to his support. But in the case of Norris, he claims the right to use his chairmanship to resist, retard and If possible, defeat the policies of the Hoover administration as he did the preceding administration of Ooolldge.

The only mistake Lucas made was in not coming out as the executive of the National committee, and opposing the re-election of Norris without any apologies for so doing. The only position in which Senator Norris can make a fair fight is BS a free lance with the right to the floor on all occasions when he has something to say, whether the country wants to hear it or cot Mr. Lucas's statement that the Republicans of Nebraska had good reason to oppose the election of Senator Norris is correct. His further statement that the situation is "intolerable" and must be ended Is no exaggeration. It is unfortunate, perhaps, that the break has come at Just this time, before the Administration has had time to fully formulate policy, but the remarkable thing is that it has been delayed so long.

Opinion Stirs The Nation The opinion by Federal District Judge Wiliiam Clark, of New Jertey, in a deliverance that the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution i a nullity has stirred the Nation. Although (he Judge is the youngest on the Federal bench, being net yet forty years of age, lie has been reversed in but three cases out of thirty that have gone up to Ihe circuit bench from his conn, and thote three were technical pilent oaseo. A summation of the argument relied on by the Wets was presented discussed in these columns so they need not be restated. The point thw. the Constitution provides two ways of securing rp'lflca- of amendment to the Cjr.

itlttitton: one by majority vote of threc- Jourths of the Mate legislatures, or by aUte conventions, the members of which were eleoUd for the special duty of considering the question at issue. The being already in the proposed amendment pre- ind elected pcwlbly two years Wort the presentation of amend- cannot have bexn chosen with this matter In view. Whereas, a convention in each of the states would be composed ot members elected by constituencies that were for or against the ratification of 'such an amendment. Thus voters by the convention method would be able to properly express their views on the issue. The court quotes a large number of authorities in support of the opinion, one of then; Lincoln, who said: I will venture to add that to me the convention seems preferable in that it allows amendments to originate with the people themselves instead of only permitting them to take or reject propositions originated by others, not especially chosen for the purpose, and which might not bo precisely such as they would wish to cither accept or refuse.

To a layman, the argument is Impressive. Several hundred lawyers have already expressed opinions either for or against. As partisanship has become a part of these opinions, they have little value In the clarification of the issue. The court's statement of that fact is very clear and lo the point. As is familiar, all amendments so far made part of our constitutional structures have been proposed by Congress for ratification "by the Legislatures of three-fourths o'f the several Slates." This accustomed procedure has left unnoticed in Article 5 of the Oonstitutlon the companion provision for ratification, "or by conventions in thrcc-fcurths thereof." This language is now being lifted from its obfiurity by the claim that a lack of compliance therewith has invalidated the ratification of the Eighteenth Amendment.

As the question has now become a partisan one and all the legislatures have been elected on party issues, it Is not clear to a man up a tree how any ratification on party lines can to trie merits of a prohibition Issue. If the Supreme Court in the final opinion supports the New Jersey court it will mean simply that the job must be done over again by the convention method, which will be a real test vote on prohibition, in which three-fourths of the states must approve of the proposed amendment. WASHINGTON I By Herbert Plummer L. WASHINGTON--If one could tour the National Zoo its director, Dr. William Mann, he would discover that Mann knows about all there is lo know of the social groupings and such matters In the realm of birds, beasts, reo- tiles and fish.

He is a regular "who's ZOD" on that iluff. Yet get him out of that and into mankind's social whirl, and lie Is not quite so "at home." Fellow scientists laughingly tell of Mann's perturbation a year or so ago while on a European tour. He went to dinner In London, where he was ccm- pletely surrounded by Lord This anct Sir That and other titled folk. Hu was bewildered over what to call them. Finally he took to calling them all "my lord." It seemed the easiest way.

And he got by all right until he scoke to a waiter as "my lord." His titled table neighbor grinned: "I'll give you a tip. doctor. You can tell the lords from the waiters by thoir neckties. If he wears black he's a waiter." Dr. Mann presumably had no trouble with human social classifications on his recently completed trip to Central America in search of new specimens.

He did, however, encounter a. lot of mighty aristocratic snakes, reptiles, bugs and such. He broueht some of them back wim him to go into residence in the new reptile house of the national zoo. And when Dr. Mann says he brougnt them back, he means jiist that.

As tne Byslander hears the story, he and Mrs. Mann traveled vis-a-vis with the rjlue- bloods of the crawling world. They had snakes In sacks and cardboard boxes In their personal on one steamship jump. The doctor himself thought that a bit strong; but had no time to get proper boxes made. To prevent troublesome incidents, tne Manns sat up all mght watching their pets.

When they reached New York. Washington-bound, their companions had been adequately housed in nice 1 new wire-meshed packing cases. So Dr. Mann reserved a Pullman drawing room to Washington, had tne station redcaps put away his bags, including the snake containers (unrecognized as such by the redcapsi, and rode i calmly down that way. I To make assurance sure, however as Or.

Mann told the incident casually to a friend of the Bystander's, he Etit on one side of the heap of cases nnd Mr.s. Mann on the other, ready to turn back any adventurous crawler that showed a i head. It's all in the day's job to the Manns. Correct English A DAILY QUIZ, Improve the sentence. "Lift it up six foot highnr." Whnt is the meaning of the verb to PICOT? pronunciation?

Then with my wife to see "Grand Hotel." diverting drama but not worth the $15.60 paid for two tickets.

Late to bed. Many innocent side street hotels lit New York are heavens of organized vice. They make attractive rates to elderly and respectable couples, for they give an aura of benign and valetudinarian dignity they could not otherwise attain. Most of them are the proverbial stone's toss from Broadway. Here gather the stool nieeons and underworld fixers.

The drug and liquor caches arc often there, from which runners and peddlers are sent forth. Vice- barons buy a majority interest in such inns and control them In the same manner In which they control the night clubs. Gang murders, robberies and blackmailing shake-downs are hatched in this atmosphere of pseudo-respectability. Unhappily, many visitors to the city go Innocently to this type of hotel. In two instances recently utter strangers have been held as material witnesses, A gigantic hotel north 'of Times Square is the reputed keystone of tne biggest liquor ring in the world.

Every clerk and bellboy Is said to be an illicit salesman. For two years it lias been the topic of vaudeville and musical revue jokes, but continues wide open. Two of New York's most sensational and recent crimes have taken place In Edison Answers Anli-Saloon Queries on Prohibition His Views Considered the Most Influential of Any American Question 1--Do you approve cf the Eighteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States? If so, why? Answer--Yes, It Is a necessary aid to permit practical enforcement of prohibition all over the country. Question 2--Has it helped the industrial and economic life of America at home and strengthened -the Industrial standing of our nation abroad? Answer--Yes, and to a greater extent than realized. Question 3--In judgment, are children better fed and clothed and educated since the coming of national prohibition than they were before? Answer--in my Judgment, I would say, decidedly yes.

In support of this opinion and in tills connection let me cite my experience as a manufacturer which is similar to that of other manufacturers. On pay days, before prohibition, hundreds of pale-faced women, shabbily dressed, some with faded shawls around their heads, appeared at. our factory at West Orange. They were waiting to get some of their husbands' money before he got to a saloon. Witn- ln a year after the amendment, not a single woman appeared.

Surely wo Americans do not want a return of this state of affairs. Undoubtedly the condition of the mother Indicates the condition of the children, although they ate perhaps a little better off than she, because she will do anything, even to the giving up of her life, to protect them Question 4 -What attitude should the womanhood of America hold toward prohibition, and why? Answer--Woman is custodian of the home and the children. She certainly. It a normal woman, decs not desire the introduction of narcotics Into her home, which in many cases changes a human man Into a brute. Question 5--Are the boys and girls ol America more likely to develop a lllghe- degree of physical anti me-ti fitness and become In every way better and more useful citizens under national pro- OUR CHILDREN Angelo Palri ANOTHER BOOK "On, mother, look! please get me a book."

When it Is possible lie should have another one. Books are about the very best investment one can make for a child's recreational hour. The child of today must be trained to use leisure time profitably for it Is becoming clearer every day that he is to have plenty of it. Books arc one of the best uses to which such time can be put and the sooner the habit of reading is established and encouraged the better for everybody. There are many fine books for children.

The modern library offers the best of books for a dollar each. One has to be careful that the type Is good, of tne right size and clear, as poor printing ana small type Is not gocd for young eyes, and buy books the child likes from the which includes many of the mas- lerpieces of the wcrld. Do you know The Little Library? it is a collection of lovely books for children. The books arc small, clearly printed, and real. I have Just finishing read- Ing Nathaniel Hawthorne's tale.

The donkeys of southern Ilaly de-serve a story all to themselves, and when you add to a perfectly charming specimen of this donkey, an adorable litUc Sicilian girl and the iport- ingett kind of American flrl. you have an unbeatable rtory of South- hotel rooms--the pistoling ot notorious Arnold Rothstein and the equally notorious Diamond. In each Instance, when the arrived, trails grew immediately cold. And, see here Mr. Commissioner, being done about the Rothstein and Diamond In such hotels one hears the jargon of the underworld--such words as "grand," "cutins," "a deck" and "a hurt In the arm."

It comes, oddly enough Irom respectable Kew Gardens, where all roof tope are red. Lait Is ako authority for the origin of that Broadway slang: "It's the real McCoy!" A token of superiority. Kid McCoy was once In front of his cafe on Broadway and 39th Street.

A dvunk lurched up, blubbering: "You ain't the real McCoy. You are a four- flushing faker." McCoy let one go flush to the Jaw. Coming to ten minutes later the drunk murmured: "It's the real Mc- Cov!"

Answer--Yes; they certainly cannot develop on alcohol and other narcotics. Question 6--Should the Eighteenth Amendment be retained as a blessing to our American homes today and to those of future generations? Answer--Yes, enforcement Is getting more practical day by day. We now attack the large manufacturer right In our midst instead of men with flasks and hcmc brews.

Longworlhs Win Long Social Fight President and Mrs. Hoover Dim; at Their Home WASHINGTON--The long fight of Mrs. Alice Longworth and her husband to gain recognition for the Speaker of the HOUES of Representatives has been won. The last measure of success lor their efforts was attained when President and Mrs. Hcovcr went to the Longworth home for dinner, in accepting the invitation Mv.

Hoover established a precedent which ranked the Speaker next to the vice President of the United States --a rank which the Loneworths have always contended was rightfully theirs. Heretofore during the social season, the President's dinners outside of the White House were flnrt with the Vice President, then with the ten Cabinet officers according to their rank, and finally with the Speaker. The controversy over seating of Mrs. Longworth and Mrs. Edward Gann, hostess and sister cf the Vice President, Is not involved.

The Lonirworths contended In that controversy that Mrs. Oann, not being the wife of the Vice President, the place should be given to the next In line, Mrs. Longworth The Federal statute of succession to the Presidency does not establish the rank of Government officials beyond the first seven Cabinet officers, it places the Vice President first In line for the presidency, then the Secretary of State and so on down through the first seven ranking Cabinet officers. The Secretaries of Agriculture, Commerce and Labor arc not named in the succession law. Neither Is the Speaker mentioned.

Senator Norn's' Strange Aberration Strange Message of Terror In Russia Pulpwood Block In 36,000 Cords Carries a Message from Russia to Pierccville, New York SARANAC LAKE, N. tragic tale of starvation, exposure to intense cold and the death of thousands of enslaved laborers in Soviet lumber camps was unfolded at Piercefield, about fifty miles from hore, with the translation from the Russian of a message written on a block of pulp wood imported by the International Paper Company at Piercefield. The writing on the block -was discovered by a workman of the paper company, who was about lo put it into a machine. He was unable lo translate It, and so he took it to the cloth- Ing store of Jacob Pimstein, who understands Russian, at Tupper Lake. Mr.

Pimstein translated the message, and the block Is now on display in the window of Mr. Plmstein's store, The workman who discovered the writing refused to allow his name to De used, but said tJiere were several smaller messages which he did net pay any attention to. The block was part of a cargo of 36,000 cords of pulpwood which were consigned to the International Paper company from Russia via Quebec Canada. The message is written In pencil on the wood, from which the bark had been removed. It contains about 250 words.

The message, according to the translators, is undated, but was evidently written in Archangel In Northern Russia, as the name of that city ts written at the start of the message. The writer. hoped that his message would come to light as it Is addressed to "brothers beyond the lines" and Is headed, "The Terrible Conditions Under Which Men In Soviet Lumber Camps Must Work." It states that millions are forced to enter the woods without proper cloth- Ing, and that once In the camps they are barely fed. The translators were specifically asked about tile use of the wnrd millions. They replied that there was no doubt about the number, which was written In letters and not numerals.

The message adds that each workman receives a half pound grain flour for each meal, and that he himself must cook whatever meal he can prepare from It. The message also states that the men look like skeletons, that thousands are freezing to death weESly from exposure, and that the men are forced to peel and cut the heavy wocd by hand with hardly any equipment. Workmen at the Ptercefleld mill say that the wood is purchased here at about $4 a cord cheaper than domestic pulp wood. are proteins which to meat or eggs iu food value and are them- I selves double the food value of a two- year-old steer.

But there no reason why man's opinion should not have weight, and Dr. Edward Lyman Cornell of Northwestern University has offered his to the co-eds at Evans ton. He advises the young business woman to hold out for ten points before she says Yes. The Ideal husband should be ambitious and Industrious, possess tact and a good disposition, and be healthy enough to swim twenty-five yards In thirty seconds. Among the other less conventional requirements Is perfect willingness to allow his wife to audit his finances.

The model husband should be willing to his wife an "equal partner," but Dr. Cornell cautions the co-ed who must live on an allowance to "keep a fund for yourself that you dont havt, to audit for your husband," so that also you win not the humiliation of having to ask for money.
