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.

What completed the effect were Ihe settings. ,Desnito the freakish taxi- cabs and sewer pipes of "Seventh Heaven" it is improbable that any stage execution ever looked more finished than this one. Lights and shadows and more room were princi- pally responsible, and the two sets were changed both times with speed and precision that ill bespoke the lack of room. It may be puerile to admit this, but a turn in the last act handed out a real surprise to the audience-and they weren't all morons, either.

LITTLE'S CONCLUSIONS Take half a dozen sane but disturl ing ideas, dilute them well in printer' ink and sprinkle them out on thf avid general public and the result a mixture whose explosive properties have not as yet been probed by ever 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: etfteudt, ; ion N a r birth con- trol, toward law and politics, toward international responsibilities, and to- ward materialism are inevitable dis- tasteful to those who hold these views. Still they are not necessarily radical r roiltiolary, but are plain state- -ment of his conclusions. His bolt statements, if sensational in a sense, are no more than those at which the person of average intelligence would inevitably arrive were he given the facts and scientific data upon which: to base them. 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.; The second factor which would be ------------------------------- ............................ -q actors into condition, but there are throwing-around of large chiAks of SOLVING THE PROBLEM none who deny that the above men- passion-decent and indecent-, of > The problem of transportation, one tioned actives in Mimes sure needed gray-haired guardians, or of grief. i of increasing complexity in the mod- the practice.
