WITH which Introduction we come to our
VV story: Among the wise ones, you'll learn
that it was Steve Hannigan who "put over”
Gene Tunney. If today the common stock of
Gene Tunney is up 20 points, you'll have to
give credit to Steve. Steve was called in some
weeks before the "big fight” to popularize
Gene. At that time it was hard to make the
average fan believe that Gene was much more
than a student with a couple of unusual fists.
At that time a half dozen of the leading sport
writers found It difficult to mention the name
of Tunney without a parenthetic sneer.
Power Enough
NJOMINEE CURTIS makes a very vulnerable
It statement as to the 18’ amendment In
declaring that by their ratification the states
"delegated to the federal government their full
and original power and responsibility on' the
liquor prohibition question."
What the states did wis to ratify an
amendment which, specifically, gave the states
concurrent power BF’rrifofM said’amendment;
and, to confer or to accept concurrent power,
certainly implies the obligation to exercise it.
The amendment clearly lives the states full
power to enforce; and, the present deplorable
condition is largely due to the fact that many
of the states have not exercised that power,
anywhere near fully, fof the reason 'hat tney

P ER HOWELL, now running
for re-election In Nebraska, is
incorrigible in his constant
study of the possibility of us-
ing various plants for food
which are not now so used. For
some years he has been investi-
gating the possibilities of arti-
chokes for producing sugar and
for use as substitutes for pota-
toesand other vegetables. Ex-
tensive experiments are being
made at the Bureau of Stand-
ards to determine their sugar
value. More recently the Sen-
ator began to figure how the
United States could raise its
own tea crop, pioneering in a
new field.
Just now he is Interested in
dahlia tubers as. a possible
source of sugar and is closely
following experiments along
that tins by Dr. B. 8. Norton at
the Maryland State Agricultur-
al College. It is known that .
dahlias have considerable sugar
content and both Norton and
Howell are confident that a
type may be bred with much
more, easily collectible.
Howell's secretary. Wi)son C.

lias in his home garden so that
he and his boss might study the

the following .little incident .which, I, wit-
nessed set me to thinking: The picture shows
in those days were rather crude affairs, and
cost only ten cents. On this particular evening
many were trooping toward the garish display
sign. A group of men were standing on a
street corner gossiping. Men are really awful
gossips, as you will find if you ever live in a
small town. The wife of one of them walked
meekly up to the group,, saying: . ...
"Henry, I thought I’d go to the picture
show this evening.” Her tone was suppliant.
Henry, with the most generous gesture imag-
-inable and a benign stroke of his mustache,
reached slowly into his pocket and with mag-
nificent abandon deposited into the outstretch-
ed hand of his overworked wife one small,
slick dime.
And the woman took it gratefully. Think
of such humiliation to an intelligent creature.
Think of such a recompense for a hard-work-
ing woman!

Foresight Needed
WVERY time there is an industrial strike or
Ca lockout there is either stupidity or
arrogance on one side or the other. In the
end there is always some meeting of salads
and a settlement. But in the meantime there
has been a great economic waste.
Stupidity, arrogance and bullheadedness
isn't confined to either side of industrial wara.
There is no essential difference between em-
ployers and employes. In these days of gen-
eral education a man’sintiitgence is not meas-
ured by his bank roll, or by the job he holds
in mill or factory. All of the big captains of
Industry didn't come from the office. Many of
the big railroad executives came up from the
yards.
One thing needed in the interest of indus-
trial peace is more foresight and less hind-
sight. The best time to have vision is before
a fellow gets into a fight and gets lieked. Any
fool can have commonsense after it has been
pounded into him. The sensible man has it
first.

117 ASHINGTON, Aug. 31.—
W Mrs. Eugene O. Sykes, wife
of the vice chairman of the
Federal Radio Commission, has
become an inventor.
Recently she was granted a
patent on a device which may
become as common in American
homes as radio sets. She calls
it a "handy picture hangar"
and expects to market it.-
With this contraption, pic-
tures may be Uken off or
placed on the wall without the
necessity of standing on a step-
ladder, ehair or piano and with-
out a hammer. Also, pays Mrs.
Sykes, it ean he used to suspend
or remove bird cages, eurtains,
mirrors and other articles.
It appears that in Mrs. Sykes'
Mississippi home there are
many pictures which have to
be taken down and cleaned
twice a year. A friend, helping
her clean the pictures, fell and
was injured. An idea subse-
quently came to Mrs. Sykes in
the middle of the night and she
.arose and sketched it. Next
'May she made a cardhoard mod-
el which a blacksmith used to
make the first "handy hanger."

STEVE’S first act was to sweep all visible
P books under the bed at the Tunney train-
ing camp. One day a camera man came upon
the champion poring over the pages of a
steamship guide, In preparation for his Euro-
pean trip. The news photographer snapped it
and was about to send it out as another shot
of Tunney "training with his books and not
his hooks." Steve managed, to squash it.
To the camp came a dozen hard-boiled
sports experts, ready to "burn Tunney up.”
But Steve had given the champ a special course
in behavior. , He arranged to bring up the
wives and families of some of the hard-boiled
crew. Gene played with the babies and made
an instant hit with the wives. Overnight 'two
of the most antagonistic writers did a com-
plete turn-about-face. Not even the old friends
of the champ fell quite so hard.
When the big fight was over they were
first to protest that Tunney wouldn’t marry,
he wouldn’t quit the ring, there was no girl in
his life. Steve had built a'careful fence for
the champ to lean against. He had the wise
boys drawing swords in defense of the hand-
some heavyweight. They were prepared to
swallow whatever was given them without the
aid of water, ginger ale or Canadian beer. Out
of all this emerged a new piture of the cham-
pion. And Steve, with bla green shirt, green
tie and Irlah hoorah came back to New York
enroute for Florida where, from time to time,
he sings the glories pt Miami Beach.
WE Cannot venture forth very
VV much, even in a peaceful
way, without adopting meas-
ures which might be construed
as imperialistic.
The only way we can avoid
such a charge is to stay home,
put our money in local banks
and buy raw material from
other people at the price they
set.
We must buy the raw ma-
terial, however. Our indus-
trial structure depends on it.
Rubber is but one of half a
dozen commodities without
which we cannot get along.
We can regulate the price by
creating competition If our
people are allowed to develop
enterprises in other lands.
They will not develop such en-
terprises, especially In semi-
savage lands, without reason-
able guarantees. Those guar-
antees necessarily rest on a
certain degree of control over
local politics, and a certain
degree of monopoly. And there
you are. •

We were abundantly warned before the

maintain armaments as long as other nations
do. Treaty or no treaty, the time has not yet
arrived when the country is willing to rely
wholly on the good faith of other nations for
Ms security.
The maintenance of adequate armaments Is
ane thing, however, and the ambitious program
advocated by the navy quite another. Con-

"IUSBANDS whose wives earn nothing are
far more content with marriage than the
husbands of wage-earners," says the Bureau
of Social Hygiene, which has been conducting
one of these innumerable researches.
That's not at all astonishing. Most men
like to feel themselves the sole family sup-
port. Having their wives come to them asking
for money or setting aside the household allow-
ance gives them a pleasant feeling of gen-
