Word of the dramatic rescue of Lincoln Ellsworth (above) and Her-
bert Hollick-Kenyon in the Antarctic was flashed to civilization by the
British Royal relief ship Discovery II; which found them safely en-
camped on the face of the great ice barrier at Little America. A projected
flight across Antarctic wastes failed because their fuel had become
exhausted.

Liquor Control
By State Seen
As Big Issue
Gov. Fitzgerald Declares
State Has No Business In
Liquor Problem
LANSING, Jan. 19. - (/P - The
controversy over whether the state
should be in the liquor business
reached a stage today where political
leaders believed it will have to be
accepted as a campaign issue.
Indications were that major par-
ties will have to eoate the problem
in their conventions and take a stand
in their platforms. The fight evi-
dently will carry not only through
this year's political debates but into
the next legislature for final settle-
ment.
Gov. Fitzgerald, the official lead-
er of the Republican party, reiterat-
ed that he believes the state "has no
business" in the liquor business. He
contended the state should limit its
activity in this direction to regulation
and the collection of revenue.
Debate Store System
The state store system promises to
be the hub of the argument. Fitz-
gerald intimated he might not object
to a state monopoly on purchase of
liquor, but insisted retail vending of
liquor should be left to "taxpaying
merchants." He said that as long as
the state is in the liquor business to
the present extent the system will be
liable to charges of corruption and to
political manipulation.
Frank A. Picard, Democratic leader
and former chairman of the liquor
control commission, favors continu-
ance of the state store system. He
holds the opinion that liquor can be
dispensed in a more orderly manner,
and with greater profit to the state,
through liquor stores than in any
other manner. His view is shared by
former Gov. William A. Comstock
and other chiefs of the Democratic
party.
Indirect Vote Expected
If the parties take a definite stand
the people will have an opportunity
to cast an indirect vote for or against
the state store system. Their ballots
presumably would do much to in-
fluence the next legislature. While
it is within the province of the liquor
control commission to do away with
the store system by merely abolishing
the state stores, it is conceded gen-
erally that the system probably will
not be uprooted unless the legislature
so directs. Legislation to regulate
the profits and methods of handling
and warehousing would be deemed
necessary before the state store sys-
tem could be wiped out.
The governor's contention that the
state should get out of the liquor
business is supported largely by those
opposed to any invasion of private
business by the government. It also
has the backing of certain groups
which believe that any state liquor
system involving the army of em-
ployes and the various ramifications
of buying and selling liquor will soon-
er or later be put to political uses.

Gains Success By Unique
Combination Of Luck,
PersonalAbility
Dorothy Thompson, wife of Sin-
clair Lewis and widely-known as a
foreigncorrespondent, feature writer
for Saturday Evening Post and au-
thor of "The New Russia" and "I Saw
Hitler," will speak next Thursday at
Hill Auditorium.
She will lecture on the subject
"Rediscovering America," and is ex-
pected to include in her talk a type
of analysis of conditions in America
similar to that presented in Sinclair
Lewis' latest book "It Can't Happen
Here."
When Dorothy Thompson and Sin-
clair Lewis were married, people who
were interested in them wondered if
she would abandon her own literary
career. Her present lecture tour and
her recent magazine articles are
ample evidence that matrimony does
not interfere with journalism as far
as she is concerned.
Combines Luck and Ability
Her career as a journalist repre-
sents a unique combination of per-
sonal ability and good fortune. The
"lucky breaks" she has received as a
newspaper correspondent are de-
scribec by herself in a recent article.
"Ten years ago," she writes, "I decid-
ed to go to Europe. _ I went to a
steamship office and told them I
wanted passage on the next boat
wherever it was going. The destina-
tion happened to be England. I had
an idea that I would be able to do
some newspaper articles, but not the
faintest notion where they would be
published."
Arriving in Europe, she for no par-
ticular reason, went to Ireland and
talked with Terrence MacSwiney, and
two hours after she left his office he
was arrested. Upon her return to
London, she was greeted with news-
paper headlines of MacSwiney's hun-
ger strike, and her interview - one ofj
those lucky breaks - was printed at
once.
While commissioned by the Red
Cross doing publicity work in Paris,
she was sent to Budapest and ar-
rived inside the lines just following
the arrest of Emperor Karl and
Princess Zita. Without assignment
from any paper she obtained per-
mission to interview the Crown Prince
in the castle where he was held pris-
oner. It was a "scoop" and the next
day the story was sent speeding
around the world.
An additional flourish of luck sur-
rounded Dorothy Thompson only re-
cently, when Chancellor Hitler put
her on the front pages of the press
of Europe and America by expelling
her from Germany in August, 1934.
Has Unique Interview Method
As to her own part in the success
she has attained in journalism,
friends who know her attribute a
major portion of that success to her
unique tactics in the development
of news stories and interviews. A
typical method of hers will be to
approach some personage to be inter-'
viewed, who refuses to talk, and in-
sinuate to him that he is in sympathy
with whatever she knows to be his pet
aversion. More than likely the in-
terviewee will not only begin talking
but, in denying the accusations, come
out with his real opinions.
Tickets for the lecture, priced at
50 to 75 cents, may be obtained from
Wahr's State street bookstore.
