ALLEN r. 1 Now that all WASHINGTON the Republican shouting and the Democratic wailing over the New Deal defeat in Rhode Island has simmered down, the Inner Circle is mulling over a few salient facts about the meaning of the defeat and what caused it. The first fact is that Roosevelt will lose New England in 1936. In this connection, New Dealers point out that lie never did carry it in 1932, though he did make notable gains in 1934. The second is that the Rhode stimulated has defeat Island Democratic politicos to considerable national activity. Their smug , cocksureness regarding the outcome i of 1936 has had a dent knocked into it the size of a battleship. Simultaneously, and paradoxicbeen ally, this same dent has not Rean unmixed blessing to the not too publicans, for reasons obvious on the surface. Republican best bet for 1936 was to form a coalition ticket including Old Guard Democrats. thus splitting the DemBut with the ocratic Party. Rhode Island success staring them in the face, it begins to look as if they would sweep aside any amalgamation with Democratic Tories. If they do this, it will probably cost them the election. Finally, and not to be glossed over, is the fact that the Rhode Island campaign was beset with local jealousies and I which made it anything but indicative of the country at large. ' Here are some of the intrastate hornets which stirred up the unimals in Rhode Island: 1. Processing taxes on cotton bore down with a particularly heavy hand on the state's textile industry. Largely owned by abRhode sentee Boston merchants, Island textile mills are far behind were the South in equipment, among the first to close down. Republicans attributed this unemployment to the Democrats. F. ratio Governor T. 2. Green was anything but an asset to his party. He incurred Labor wrath by calling out the National Guard in the Woonsocket strike last year. 3. Racial animosities flared on both sides.

The onne quintuplets, worlds most famous babies, may become motion picture actresses, it was disclosed today. An offer to the five Misses Dionne with Harold Lloyd, bespectacled film comedian, has been made to Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe, physician who brought them into the world and member of their board of co-st- ar guardians. E. Lloyd Sheldon, film producer, approached Dr. Dafoe with the offer and declared negotiations were proceeding successfully so far. If the Canadian government agrees, the quintuplets would be cast as a hungry brood on Lloyds route as a milkman in the comedy The Milky Way. The actor and a production unit would travel to Callander, Ont., to film the scenes with the babies if negotiations are successful.

The strange death was explained by physicians as being due to an idiosyncracy possessed by Miss Keetch for insect bites. Three years ago, it was reported she was rendered unconscious after having suffered a bee sting, and was brought back to consciousness only after great difficulty. Miss Keetch was in the dining hall at the Aspen Grove campus in Provo canyon when she suddenly exclaimed that she had been bitten by a bee. She rushed from the room, but collapsed a tew feet from the building. First aid was administered by a graduate nurse who is a student at the summer school. She reported to the physicians that Miss Keetch was breathing with great difficulty. She was placed in a car and rushed to Provo but died en route near Wildwood. Physicians who performed a post mortem found the bee sting under the arm pit, a particularly vulnerable spot, especially favorable for the spreading of the poison through the circulatory system. Miss Keetch was born at St. Charles where she had always lived. She filled a mission for the L .D. S. church a few years ago and since that time had been teaching school, following attendance at the Utah State Agricultural college.
