When, a lot of people would like to know, is television
going to become something more than just an experiment for
scientists to play with in their laboratories?
We've been hearing about television, reading about
television, and discussing the magic of television, but as yet
we have seen no television. There have been*vague rumors
of big combines tying up patents. There have been various
other rumors as to cause of delay. Some skeptics of the
‘I'm from Missouri’’ school declare that the whole thing is a
pipe dream, and that there never will be television of a practical sort.
As usual, all the rumors are wrong. Technical perfection of the process has been a slow and difficult job, but now
it is virtually complete. Broadcasting that brings what's going on to our eyes as well as our earns will begin in the United States as soon as the Federal Communications Commission assigns definite air channels on which television stations
may operate. They've already held hearings, and the decision
is expected any day now.
Another rumor, that the cost of television is prohibitive, also seems to be pure fiction. A broadcasting station now
nearing completion in the East is costing considerably less
than $100,000. And receiving sets, good sets that really work
satisfactorily, are being built already in some quantity for
$250 or less. You'll yemeniber that the first good radio sets
cost almost that much.
And all this means that within a year or hee two,
there'll be many an average man sitting in his home watching as well as hearing things occurring miles away, and_perhaps wondering what qconceivable magic marvel the world
of science will bring him next.
Two Gentlemen Meet .
+ Contributed)
By the very nature of it, that meeting of Landon and
Roosevelt at Des Moines last week was packed with drarfa.
Watching them, the nation was on edge wondering
what, if anything, would happen. Leaders in the rival political camps were positively jittering for fear their man might
be placed in an unfavorable light even by some mere word or
gesture.
The sportsmanlike way-it came off, the smiles and good
will each candidate had for the other, augurs well for the campaign. It looks as though neither candidate will permit his
campaign workers to indulge in. attacks on the personal charVacter of his opponent.
No one, of course, can prevent calumny oe playing.
some part in the’campaign. There is always that. Abraham
‘Lincoln, when a_ candidate, was libélled by all manner of
malicious whisperings started by unscruplous pigmies. Thomas Jefferson; too, and Teddy Roosevelt, when running for office, were maligned by censcienceless political enemies.
But those who said this.was going to be the dirtiest cam.paign, the most personally bitter, mud-slinging affair ‘in history, will now have to revise their prediction.
ALF. LANDONIS
VISITOR IN HIS
OLD HOME TOWN
Fifteen hundred ‘home folks” in
West Middlesex, Pa., found themselves swamped recently with over
100,000 ‘visitors’, not the least of
which was a popular hometown boy,
~ called “Alf.”’ He had come all the
way from Kansas, whence he “has
“been governor of the state for four
“years. He'd traveled:on a_ special
train, with every utterance and act
carefully chronicled by ten thousand newspapers. Many.of his talks
were broadcast so that hundreds of
Millions might know his thoughts.
When he spoke on the Tam-O-Shaner golf links near by, he spoke as
the Grand Old Party’s candidate for
Presidency. Fully half the peoe in the land believe he will be the
xt President of the United States.
she did some 49 years ago. He took
his ‘‘Aunt Emmy” and Uncle Bill to
church, where he sat as a boy, under his grandfather Mossman’s Methodist doctrine, and fanned them
both with a palm leaf fan. He seemed to take pleasure in finding the
“old homestead” and the 100-yearold red-brick church ‘‘unchanged.”’
He napped after Sunday dinner, in
the bedroom of the old manse where
he was born. He paid special attention to his mother’s old neighbors,
to ‘‘Lizzie’’ who’d “helped” her, to
the lady who ‘‘gave him the chickenpox” to 91 year old Uncle Willie
Padden who came over from Greenville. He shook off the swarm of reporters and photographers, to go
“visitin’ around’ all Sunday afternoon, and renew auldacquaintance.
He seemed unconscious of his new
importance. His manners were as
modest as‘any hometown boy’s. His
greatest theme at “the speaking”’,
to 100,000 in the audience and to
125,000,000 unseen radio fans, was
simply the ancient American slogan
of liberty, and freedom from dictators in government. That was the
American ereed of his forefathers.
It was the topic of the day.

FERRIES TO PLY
AFTER GOLDEN
GATE IS BRIDGED
SAN FRANCISCO, Sep. 10.—Joint
effort of management and employes
of the Southern Pacific-Golden Gate
Ferries, Ltd., and Northwestern Pacific Railroad Company to maintain
an attractive alternative service to
the public after the trans-bay andGolden Gate bridges are completed was indicated in the amicable
settlement of the ‘dismissal wage”
controversy, just announced.
The agreement reached is. designed to protect employes who may lose
their jobs-as a result of curtailment ;
or abandonment of service by either .
company due to diversion of traffic .
to the bridges.
The position of the Golden Gate
Ferries and Northwestern Pacifie is
different from that of the Key Route
and Southern Pacific transbay ferries, whose suburban business will
be transferred from ferry boats to
electric trains the latter companies
will operate over the bridges, it was
pointed out.
“Both the Northwestern Pacific
and the Southern Pacific-Golden
Gate Ferries, Ltd., will continue -to
furnish frequent service in competition with the bridges, to the “extent
of their_finanecial_ability to do so,’’
said A. D .MecDonald, who is chairman of the Board of Directors of.
both companies, ‘‘ and the agreements signed by the representatives
of the employes assure the hearty .
cooperation of the employes in this
effort,-as*it will mean continued employment for them and optional and
additional service for. . the public.”’
