ASSEMBLY HIT BY BEVERIDGE FOR DALLYING Real Work Delayed to Fight Primary, Is Assertion at Huntington. HONORED WlTfi BANQUET Special to Tho Times. HUNTINGTON, Ind., Jan. 20— Albert J. Beveridge, former Republican Senator from Indiana, in addressing a meeting of women voters here today, held to his protest against the proposed repeal of the primary. He will addnesa a joint meeting of business men’s organizations and women’s clubs of Huntington, tonight, after a banquet in his honqr. His subject will be, “The Vital Necessity for the Constitution of the United States.” In his remarks before the League of Women Voters, Mr. Beveridge said, among other things: The Legislature has on its hands the heaviest and most difficult economic legislation in our history; why, then, does it waste priceless time in the attempt to destroy a great and historic measnre for popular rights—an action for which the- people do not ask? This ought to be, and yet may be, a groat business session; all the people are expecting and demanding that It shall be; yet the real work is postponed while time is taken in efforts to abolish the primary, even against the earnest protests of the people. Poes any man or woman who will sttiiSp the State next campaign want to defend the destruction of the nominating primary and the restoration of the nominating convention? Is any member of the Legislature anxious to do so? PRIMARY ISSUE IX NEXT CAMPAIGN. Every one who votes to kill the primary and revise the convention will have to do so—that, of course, cannot be avoided. For the people's primary, if destroyed or mutilated, will be a burning issue at the next election, perhaps the decisive issue—nothing can prevent that. The women will see to that, even if the men are too indifferent or negligent to do so The most encouraging event since the women won their political liberty is tht-L prompt, intelligent and fearless mobilisation in defense of their imperiled civil rights. All over Indiana women are rallying to the colors with system, spirit and determination—and they cannot be corrupted. Those who planned this coup may have counted on the lethargy of the men, but they surely ignored or thought too lightly of the women. No wonder the women are up in arms, since their civic freedom is about to be taken from them. For no honest and thoughtful persons who has studied the subject denies that women, as a class, will be practically disfranchised if the primary is buried and the convention exhumed. PRIMARY PRINCIPLE IS NOT RETAINED. X *- Since even certain members of the Legislature are reported in the newspapers to have suddenly discovered that the proposed scheme to restore the convention allows all to vote at primaries for convention “delegates” and thus preserves the primary principle, it becomes necessary again to state the facts. 1. The nominating primary permits all party members to go to the polls and vote for party candidates directly. Notices of these open, direct nominating primaries are widely and conspicuously Sublished for a long time; everybody nows when and where they are held and the names of the candidates; and the heavy and growing majority of party members attend them. 2. The convention “delegates” primary permits party members to vote only for “delegates” to some convention, at which the party candidates are nominated indirectly. Such “primaries” are given scant pnblicity; few know when and where they are to be held; nobody, except the professional politician, has any idea what the “delegates” will do when they get to the convention; everybody knows that such “primaries” are fixed up in advance; and, of consequence, no one goes to such cut-and-dried affairs except politicians and personal friends whom they induce to accompany them to "put across” their slate. Even before women won the ballot, less than 7 per cent of the men went to these sham convention-delegate “primaries;" and those who have schemed and are now trying to put their scheme through know that even fewer women will do so. . ATTENDANCE AT POLLS GROWING. On the contrary, nearly 60 per cent of the men,went to the direct nominating primaries—the number was steadily growing when women were enfranchised: •nd it is certain that this large percentage will be greatly and constantly Increased, now that women ca nvote. It all comes down to this: Do tho rank and file of party voters want to nominate their party candidates or do they want professional parry manipulators to name the candidates for whom the party voters must oust their ballots on election day ? It Is said the primaries compel candidates to spend too much money. It is strange that that excuse comes chiefly from rich men —few, if any, poor men make that complaint. But is it true? It is not. The primary law does not require any candidate to spend anything; if he does that it is his fault and not the fault of the law. It is a fact that far more money was 6pent under the convention Bystem than under the primary system. The principal reason why the people finally, after decades of experience and debate, dethroned the convention and established the primary, was the disgraceful financial debauchery. Moreover—and this point is vital—the 'amount of money spent in the primary is made public; the amount spent in delegate convention is never made public and cannot be made public. It Is lmpossiUii. to trace delegate-convention corruption funds. Able iawyers have striven and failed to devige statutes that would locate and punish convention venlality. Human nature stands in the way.

But the final and compelling argument so rthe people'* primary and against the politicians' convention Is that the primary Is right and the convention is wrong •—provided, of course, that we care to continue to develop our American Idea vs popular representative government. RESPONSIBLE TO PEOPLE. The people’s primary makes those who run our Government representative of and responsible to the people who elect them; the politicians’ convention makes those who run our Government representative of and responsible to those who nominate them, and, unfler the party lash, compel rhe people to elect them. If it Is said that unfit men are sometimes Dominated at primaries the answer is twofold: First, that such result is the fault of the citizen —and the women who now correct that—and. second, that fewer bad citizens have been named at primaries than at conventions. In the evolution of political parties as the necessary agents of popular representative government the convention has come to be destructive and the primary the savior of both. Just as "King Caucus’’ was overthrown and the convention established in its place, so "King Convention” was overthrown and the primary established in its place. Each step was a natural, righteous and Inevitable advance in party responsibility and in popular representative government. A rul just as the "old timers” of ISIS bemoaned the caucus and fought the convention, so our present-day ancients bewail the convention and de* nounce the primary. Nevertheless, the world moves on.

Science to Evolve New Race in Hundred Years

Drops Test Tubes to Study Mind , Says Psychologist, “Man will advance so far in the next 100 years that he will bear .about as much resemblance to us who are living as the first Wright airplane does to those of today.” This is the assertion of Elsie Lincoln Benedict, psychologist, who has been talking to large audiences at the' Masonic Temple the last two weeks. “I believe that we have just passed through the sge of material inventions the telephone, telegraph, wireless, airplane and many others—all have been invented during a very short period of years,” Mrs. Benedict says. “I believe that science will turn to man himself and make astounding discoveries of the possibilities .yet untapped or even dreamed about of the human mind. "Man has accomplished wonders with all the elements, has reached out and harnessed the wind, waves and lightning. Yet of his own seif he as yet knows little. Edison says, ‘We think we know a lot at this modern date, yet we know nothing, absolutely nothing, of the wonders to come.’ “Many of the world’s greatest scientists believe the same way and, like Edison, are turning their attention away from test tubes and chemicals to the human mind. The results of their efforts in the next hundred years or less will startle the world more than anything material ever could. I do not mean spiritualism, although I do not decry intelligent research along those lines, but I do mean the possibilities of the mind absolutely having the say as to what kind of life

‘BRITAIN GIVEN SEA ADVANTAGE’ Washington Senator Charges U. S. Shipping Agent Favors Chief Competitor. WASHINGTON. Jan. 20.—Charges _that an agent of the United States Shipping Board disapproved establishment of an American ship line out of Newark, N. J„ because “it would injure business of British lines sailing out of New York” were made public today by Senator Jones, Washington. Jones told of incident during a speech at tW opening of the convention of the National Merchant Marine Association. He also charged: That British interests had conducted a deliberate campaign to destroy the American merchant marine. That the International American Marine, an American corporation, had agreed with the British admiralty to pursue “no policy injurious to the British mercantile’ marine of British trade.” That the United States Chamber of Commerce, its magazine, the Nation’s Business; the Chamber of Commerce of the State of New York and international bankers, as well as heads of railroads and steamship companies, were “witting or unwitting” agents of the British in their attempts. Admiral Benson, chairman of the shipbuilding board which was hit by Jones’ charges, was also a speaker before the convention. “Onr principal competitor for the world's carrying trade,” said Jones, "is Great Britain. She will do everything possible to keep us off the seas. “A short time ago a reputable gentleman from Newark, told me of his experience in attemptlng'to establish a shipping line between Newark and England. He applied to the shipping board to buy or charter Government ships for this purpose. His application was referred to the shipping board'srepresentative in New York and he said he wns opposed to it. On being pressed for his reasons, he said the establishment of such a line would injure the business of British lines sailing out of New York.” / The shipping board agent was a former employe of the International Mercantile Marine, Jones said, and then entered into his details of charges against that corporation. He said that the international’s agreement with *'ie British made the lord high chancellor of Great Britain the final Judge in any dispute between the American corporal lon and the British. Jones then quoted from the alleged agreement.

Edward Hammond, 2, was saved hy his father, who threw the child from the roof of a porch into the arms of a neighbor. 1 Trouble It Was “I am trying to find my brother,’’ said . the Englishman timidly to the fiercelooking person with a sheath knife on one side of his belt and a six-shooter on the other. “He was In this neighborhood about four years ago. His name was Dobbinston.” “Dobbinston —kind of goody, goody chap?” “Yes, that’s the man?” “Guess I know him. H* committedsuiclde three years ago.” “What! My brother committed suicide? Was he ill or In trouble, or what?” “He called me a liar, stranger.”
