The whole problem is largely one
of speculation, for it is quite unlikely
that any such direct test will be pre-
pared by the planning powers. It
would imperil more than one head in
the party world, and such heads guard
their connections scrupulously.
A CRUCIAL TIME
Facing the crisis of their existence
-the decision on whether or not to
stand by the policies which will raise
their standards and enlarge their
scope-the faculty of Michigan State
college have agreed that the policies

THE ROLLS REPORTER, who in-

to the hopes of Ben Bolt. Most of'

Bolt was a nice fellow and hie would
win the election, BUT NOT TODAY.

Crane a long time ago was made for
that part-he didn't pick it up in re-

whole the show went over perfectly
as it was intended--eXcepting the

What completed the effect were Ihe
settings. ,Desnito the freakish taxi-
cabs and sewer pipes of "Seventh

stage execution ever looked more
finished than this one. Lights and
shadows and more room were princi-

were changed both times with speed
and precision that ill bespoke the lack
of room.
It may be puerile to admit this, but

DR. LITTLE'S CONCLUSIONS
Take half a dozen sane but disturl

ink and sprinkle them out on thf
avid general public and the result

the most erudite of our scientists. I
was this combination, apparently
which in a varying degree of satura-
tion broadcast President Little'
speech at the Princeton religious con
ference into the far corners of the
land as,a radical attack on the churcl
the clergy, and the general public.
To be frank is generally to be un-
popular, and it is the frankness of the
opinions which President Little ex-
pressed which doubtless accounts for
their unpopui arity. His deprecatory
exprinn,,im present da:

A GREAT EXPERIMENT
The viewpoint put forward recently
by a political science instructor re-
garding the election possibilities of
Governor Al Smith bf New York, and
the effect that such an election would
have upon the static electorate has a
unique angle of its own. The. election
itself would then assume the propor-
tions of an experiment on, a grand
scale.
Aside from all possibilities of either
the nomination or the election, the
assumption of such a choice by the
country would bring into play two
factors never before exercised to anyt
extent. Probably the foremost of
thse would be the testing of feeling
relative to religious qualifications for
the highest office of the - land. The
ideal viewpoint, and the one that
wouid be publicly professed by any
one so questioned, would be that re-
ligion would make no difference one
way or the other. But personal
prejudices and the privacy of a vot-
ing booth might unite to produce very
different results.;
