It is well if children do not see the news item emanat-
ing from Indiana, as some of them undoubtedly already are
a bit puzzled over this Santa Claus situation.
Two firms are fighting over the use of Santa Claus’
name, Claiming that it was incorporated first. Santa
Claus, Inc., foas brought action against Santa Claus nf
Santa Claus, Inc., seeking to enjoin the latter from using
that name. Both corporations are located in Santa Claus,

While all this may add to the gaiety of the nation, it
only tends to confuse still more the youngsters who, at
Christmas time, are eternally stumbling upon Kris Krin-
gles that suspiciously resemble their dads, or clutter up

trying to figure out how the rotound old gentleman got

‘ The king of England will marry Wally Simpson.
The king of England will not marry Wally Simpson.
The archbishops of Canterbury and York have snub-
bed the king on account of his devotion to the American-
born charmer. Queen Mary feels very baly about it.
Lloyds’ odds that nothing will interfere with the king’s
coronation next spring have dropped from 20 to 1 to 5 to 1.
American magazines telling about the royal romance are
mutilated before they can be sold in Britain.
And so on and so on and so on, until one begins to
wonder why jn a world with so many problems on its
hands, the attachment of the king of England to a good
looking woman must engross so many minds.
Is it because people generally have forgotten that the
tradition of the king’s* mistress is one of the most ancient
and firmly grounded traditions in all the long history of
British royalty? Or is it just because we have so many
worries nowadays that we welcome any diversion, however
frivolous ?
MOSCOW (UP). — A play
which cairned a furore in Moscow
literary circles has revealed that
a Stakhanovite gold miner will
receive as a reward for excep-
tional work an exact duplicate of
an overcoat worn by King George
V, made by the late king’s tail-
ors.
The incident was brought to
light when Micolai Pogodin,
prominent Soviet playright, read
a comedy to a circle of Moscow
writers. Criticised beacuse his
To read of Belgium’s recent proclamation of neutrality
is to be reminded once more of the desperate plight of
people who have to live in the middle of a great highway
for armies.
The people of Belgium might be the greatest pacifists,
the most pronounced lovers of peace, in all the world;
nevertheless they would have to live under the constant
shadow of war. For their little country lies between two
great nations which have a tradition of mutual enmity
dating back for many generations, and the handiest way
for these two nations to get at each other is to cross the
Flanders plain.
Belgium is one of thos supremely unfortunate coun-
tries which may, at any minute, be forced into a war with
which had nothing whatever to do.
In the late spring of 1914 the people of Belgium should
have been as well able to look forward to continued peace
as any people on earth. They had no territorial designs,
no plans for expansion at someone else’s expense; they did
not own anything in particular that anyone else wanted
They were on good terms with everyone and they would
have been glad to stay that way.
All this, as you can remember, did them no good. They
simply stood in the way of the juggernaut, and the war
was unloaded on their doorstep. The world’s armies need-
ed room to fight and the rich Belgian fields were the hand-
iest place.
What has happened now is just another valiant at-
tempt on the part of the Belgians to keep that sort of
thing from occurring again. How far it may succeed is an
open question.
By renouncing the alliance with France, they may dis-
engage themselves from the conflicting rivalries of
Europe; yet, if Germany and France go to war again, and
the Germans display a canny reluctance to butt their heads
against the iron line of French forts, it is all too likely that
Belgium once more will find herself a corridor for the pas-
sage of armies.
It is a tragic situation; and, in a sense, it is a symbol
of the situation in which all the people of Europe find
themselves these days.
The thing they dread the most—war, with all that it
means in the way of suffering and painandloss—hangs
over their heads, put there by forces which, ase individual
citizens, they are almost powerless to change.
It may come and it may not come—from day to day
they cannot tell—but there is very little they can do to
prevent it, for they live on a continent in which an infinite-
ly- tangled web of rivalries, hatred, fears, wrongs, and sus-
picions certainly must produce war sooner or later. .
Like the Belgians, they live in the path of the jugger-
naut. Can any American look at their plight without
breathing a devout prayer of thanksgiving for the supreme
good fortune which puts him in a land able to decide for
itself whether it is to have continued peace?

to Landon. But it is practically
impossible to find 'any astute,
well-informed person in Indiana
polis who will make .hat predic-
tion. <
A big reason for almost general
anticipation of a Roosevelt vic-
tory is the expected repudiation
by 50,000 or more Negro voters
of a Republican leal-m o which
a few years ago made onen al-
liance with the Ku Klux Klan.
Indiana has long been a border-
line state and its election is
bound to be close in any doubt-
ful year. The Hoosier state went
for Roosevelt by 185,000 in 1932.
The Negro vote always has
been the chief basis of what came
to be considered more or less nor-
mal Republican majorities in In-
dianapolis. This yeaj- most of the
colored voters are getting ready
to vote for Roosevelt and the state
G. O. I’, is engaged in a desperate
but apparently vain effort to wean
them back.
One reason Indiana may still
be classed as doubtful is found
in the fact that you never know
just how dirty its campaign will
be until it’s all over. Gov. Paul
McNutt’s Democratic machine is
openly assessing state jobholders
for campaign funds and Republi-
can whispering campaigns seem a
bit weirder than in other states.
Linet Sharply Drawn
But the essentials of the situa-
tion are obvious. Insofar as the
presidential contest goes, an Old
Guard Republican machine is op-
posing a pfo-Roosevelt mass move-
ment which draws its strength
from the sensing and feeling of
the poor.
The Republicans find anti-New
Deal sentiment strong among
farmers, business men, and many
conservative Democrats. But
income” tax by economies and
elimination of alleged beer graft.
His opponent .handpicked by
McNutt, is Lieut-Gov. M. Clifford
Townsend, a Grant County far-
mer experience in politics.
The “gross income” tax taps
practically everyone who receives
money for services or goods and
amounts to a disguised sales tax,
which hits the consumer first as
an earner, then as a buyer. The
proceeds of about $16,000,000 a
year go for education.
Small merchants are making a
terrific fight against it. The Mc-
Nutt-Townsend group insists
Springer’s election would mean a
general sales tax.
McNutt I* Issue Himself
Platinum-haired McNutt is a
big issue all by himself. He ad-
mits that a star of destiny is
leading him toward the White
House as a 1940 candidate. A
leader, a fighter, an astute politi-
cian, a brilliant orator, and dicta-
torial boss over a ruthless politi-
cal mabhine, he has built up a na-
tion-wilde network of contacts as
governor, as one-time national
commander of the American Le-
gion, and former dean of the In-
diana University School of Law.
Rumors that McNutt would be
given the War Department or an-
other cabinet post have been cur-
rent in Indianapolis, but are not
confirmed by anything this writer
has heard in Washington.
McNutt’s critics often refer to
him as a “man on horseback” and
many confidently expect him to
appear prominently in any Fascist
movement which gets going i.
America.
Angle for Veteran Vote
McNutt and his followers de-
cided, after he ran as strongly
as Roosevelt in 1932, that Mc-
Nutt would gain strength in the
state while Roosevelt would lose.
So they separated the State and
national ballots. Now they wish
they hadn’t, as Roosevelt appears
much more popular than McNutt.
Indianapolis is national head-
quarters for the American Legion
and intensive drives have been
made for the veteran vote, which
probably amounts to about 100,-
000.
Replblicans are crying that Mc-
Nutt never went overseas, that
Roosevelt vetoed the bonus, and
tha Townsend isn’t a veteran at
all.
Democrats shout back that
Hoover and Coolidge vetoed the
bonus arici that they have four
veterans on their ticket as against

He said that the gold miner,
whose name was not revealed, was
offered a reward for his Stak-
hanovite work. He requested a
“shuba” or overcoat such as that
worn by the late king.
Gold trust officials were shock-

Roses a Colossal Success
So much has been said of the do-

celebrated hueband, Charles Mac-
Arthur, that it would be pointless
to go over their blissful matrimo-
nial saga again. But It Is still a
matter of awe for playgoers to
know that when the curtain of
“Victoria Regina” descends upon
one of the most glamorous ladies
of the theater, Miss Hayes departs
hastily for home, to look in upon
her slumbering infant daughter,
Mary, and to take supper with her
literary Spouse.

That’s why veteran political
writers who have toured the state
are predicting a victory for Roose-
velt by 50,000 or more, but not
necessarily for the Democratic
state ticlftt.
Ex-Senator Jim Watson, de-
spite mistaken reports from your
correspondent and others in the
past, is still the most powerful
Republican in Indiana, A sort of
a “young guard,” which has ral-
lied around Watson, has at least
nominal control of the party.
“Knifing” Rumors Heard
Watson isn’t fond of Landon.
The Landonites weren’t very
respectful to him at the Cleveland
convention. Reports that Landon
is being traded down the river
for support of tho G. O. P. candi-
date for governor cannot be con-
firmed, although there’s more Re-
publican efforts in the guberna-
torial fight than the presidential
contest.
The old hard-hitting Republican
machine has disintgrated con-
siderably under Democratic rule.

volunteers, led by professionals
who have oeen away from the

Among the peculiar notions
which have developed in recent
years and which seem to persist
because of constantly active
propaganda is the theory that the
aluminum from cooking utensils
in some manner poisons the hu-
man being or promotet growth
of cancer in the human body.
This rumor persists notwith-
standing reports to the contrary
by important commissions set up
to study the subject in England,
Germany, and the United States.
Actually, there is not the slight-
est evidence to support the
charge. Investigations made in
some important centers indicate
that clean aluminum cooking
utensils are attacked to an insig-
nificant degree by foods that are
of neutral reaction.
Acid foods or foods to which
baking soda has been added may
dissolve small amounts of alumi-
num from the cooking utensils,
if, however, sugar is present the
amount of corrosion of the metal
is less.
The largest amount of alumi-
num found in any food after
cooking was 118 parts per million
in apple butter which had been
cooked in an aluminum vessel for
6 1-2 hours. If all the food to be
eaten in one day were cooked in
an aluminum cooking utensil,
there still would not be enough
of the metal in the food to inter-
fere seriously in any way with
normal activities of the human
body.
Occasionally, it would seem to
be conceivable that materials
coming from cooking utensils or
from foods might produce un-
favorable action in the human
body.. Thus, pieces of
glass occasionally in food
stances, and fools have
been contaminated ny splinters of
wood, wire, nails, and ether for-
eign bodies. The«e facts should
indicate the necessity of careful
control over food supplies.
Since chemical intecticides
used for destroying insect life
plants, poisonous materials occa-
sionally find their way into food
in this manner. Sprays of nico-
tine, tobacco dust, Paris green,
and lead, as well as arsenic, fre-
quently are used on growing
fruits and vegetables.
Such poisons should, of course,
be removed from fruits by thor-
oughly washing. In the case of
vegetables such as lettuce and
cabbage, it is possible to remove
