DEBRIS of an automobile accident in December still adorns the gutter at College and Fortieth street, thus illustrating the necessity of relieve ing unemployment by adding to the city s street cleaning force. HAVING FOUND FAULT with about everything that was done by the present administration, it is fitting that Mr. Twiname should have a chance to show how much better he can conduct the business of the schools. A Real Fight in Prospect Almost as many and'varied are the opinions as the number of newspapers that comment on the approaching primary race for the Republican nomination for Senator. The Huntington Press advances the theory that the “Senate oligarchy” is bringing pressure on Albert J. Beveridge Jo enter the race because. It says, he would carry the rest of the Republican ticket with him to victory. The theory is thus elaborated: “The information has been that Beveridge would be the ‘goat’ of the situation. He would be used to put the rest of the Republican ticket across, but would be scratched by the old-line, old-guard Republicans, who object to the progressive ideas preached by the former Senator at the time when he was campaigning with Roosevelt and two years later. The insults heaped on Mr. Beveridge only a few short years ago came from the depths of old-guard disgust and hatred, and it is not to be expected that they have forgiven the former Senator for the part he took in the campaign. In the emergency that confronts the Republican party, however, the old guard of the Senate, with the cunning and scheming of a political President, is willing to use the former Senator for its own needs. “Whether Mr. Beveridge can be prevailed on to make the race, and whether the old guard will succeed in putting most of the Republican ticket over and slaughtering Mr. Beveridge at the same time remains to be seen.” On the same xlay. the Anderson Bulletin says Senator New “should be defeated” and explains its position as follows: i “Republicans who seek a true representative of Indiana interests are strong in their support of Beveridge’s candidacy, and the prediction is freely made that they expect Beveridge to emerge the successful candidate. “Senator Harry S. New Is not popular among Republicans of this class. He* is not and never has been a representative of the wants of * Indiana voters. His whole senatorial career establishes thi3 fact, but it never was more forcibly impressed upon the people than it was by Ids vote on the Newberry case—a vote which was obnoxious to his supporters and inexcusable.” The Ft. Wayne Journal-Gazette does not. yet appear to hare disposed of the rumor that Mr. New would succeed Will Hays in the Cabinet, for it remarks that "the Senator is not a wealthy man, having paid the usual penalty of devotion to politics, and he is no longer a youngster. Defeat in the primary would be unfortunate. And a place in the Cabinet for three years would not be bad. However, his withdrawal from the race would not leave Mr. Beveridge a clear field unless Governor McCray tees fit to appoint him to serve out the unexpired term. It is rumored that the plan of the machine is to have the Governor name someone like Will Wood with the understanding that he will enter the race immediately." The organization forces long since concluded that the Senator is weak in an appeal to the people, and the resignation of Hays points the way out. It is all very interesting." The peculiarities of these comments may be explained on the theory that all three of these papers are Democratism their leanings and there seems to be a sort of unwritten understanding among Democratic editors that since Mr. New has the Republican organization newspapers hitche, to his wagon, Mr. Beveridge should have tipi benefit of such publicity as can be disseminated through/Democratic papers. Indiana loves a political fight between two well matched adversaries and there is every indication that the love will be gratified this spring, for Mr. New has announced his determination to seek renomination ar.d Mr. Beveridge is only waiting for the largest swell in the “spontaenous upheaval of Beveridge sentiment” before he makes his plunge. Lenin and Goodrich It is interesting to note that the high esteem for. Lenin. Trotski and other Russian Bolshevists entertained by James P. Goodrich, former Governor, is not shared by recognized authorities in the United States. At about the same time that Goodrich was lauding these Russian leaders at the Columbia Club, the Philadelphia Public Ledger, with its unparalleled facilities for estimating national characters, was describing Lenin as the man who had led Russia into a cloud of insanity. Discussing the coming of Lenin to the conference table at Moscow the Ledger says: “Lenin comes shuffling into western Europe from a land that he and his led back into semi-barbarism, cursed with famine and damned with theories. He wants something that only an un-sovieted world has to give. He wants capital, which is the pet devil of communism. If he gets it, he must talk turkey. If he does net care to talk, if he frank, if he will not make pledges and give guarantees, all the Lloyd Georges in the world cannot save him and he will have had his journey for his pains. * * * y “What sort of a devil’s own carnival was it that has smashed tlio' intellectual life of Russia, caused the extinction of Russian brains and Russian culture and replaced it with a satanic hash of Marxism, cubism and post-futurism of Bolshevist pseudoscience and twisted school-* ing? * * * “They will ask M. Lenin to explain why, after smashing capitalism, nationalizing lands, mines and factories, putting every Russian on a breadcard basis and into a workers’ army, abolishing money and banks and wrecking the whole fabric of society—why have the soviet? started in to : all these things?” ‘ / Yet, we are asked to believe, by no less distinguished a person than ! the “business-like” ex-Governor, that Lenin and his red-handc-d crowd are honorable and capable gentlemen! Let Standardization Thrive! Some years ago there was a noble movement, successful in some Western Legislatures, to prescribe by law the long h ot sheets on no tel beds. Mas it the “nine-foot” sheet that floated proudly as tin banner oil those enthusiasts of uniformity? At any rate, the grand mov'-m-nl is! going on. The division of simplified practice of the Department of Commerce is simplifying the practice of beds and mattresses. There is to be no more irregular and wild individualism about these. Unitv, uniformity standardization are to rule. This, as the simplifiers say, “means a great deal to both the bed and mattress manufacturers and the general piHUic.” There will still be confusion and anarchy among collectors. Four-posters sleigh bedsteads and such remnants of antiquity will linger long. it. will take time for the community bedstead and mattress, so to speak to disp ace the hordes of their miscellaneous, happy-go-lucky ancestors- but u timutely the many must make room for the one. This is a beautiful old Bhuosophic idea, and one loves to see it applied to bedrooms. According to Sam Weller, in his time the little British postman was always sure of getting a coat too big for him and the big postman of getting onefar too small. Only the cynical will fear that the uniform mattress and lied may be unequal to the space demands of the long and longlegged or the Daniel-Lambertian. Even if this occur, it will be no new danger. Standardized beds and bedding should lie welcomed as further proof of the repression and decay of individualism. .Unwillingness or inabiity to be like everybody else is a mark of swollen self-assertion of eccentricity, of a reluctance to be yoked to the “community spirit.”’ it Is not necessary to have many opinions. It is necessary to have them a® much like everybody else’s as two peas in a pod. Ihe simplification applied so happily to bedroom furnishings should be applied to the exterior, as it already applies to the interior, furnishings w Ns?. en a . women. Lonely voices in the desert are crying for a national civilian uniform. Shall we have to wait for thAt last protest against individualism until the benign advent of socialism?—Ntw York Tmes.

Washinoton Briefs

Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON, \ Jan. 19.—Herbert Hoover baa dispatched a personal emissary and trusted lieutenant, George Barr' Baker, to Europe for a close-up of the Russian relief situation. Mr. Baker has just reached other side, and probably will be at Riga this week to consult Hoover men fresh from the Held of operations within the famine area. He Is a trustee of the American relief administration, and with headquarters In the New York office, also directs the work of State organizations. Mr, Baker was the ; chief United States' naval censor In i Europe during the World War, with the ■ rank of lieutenant commander; was as- ! soeiated with the floorer relief organlzai tion in Belgium, and later was at Mr. Hoover’s elbow when the Secretary of Commerce was director general of European relief after the armistice. James Lord, president of the mining department of the American Federation of Labor, proposes prompt and full development of the deep waterway throughout tlie Mississippi region as a constructive remedy for national unemployment. The establishment of ship canals, he thinks, automatically would do many things besides making “seaports” of sonic of our inland cities. “With such an enterprise started.” says Mr. Lord, “building from the headwaters of the Mississippi, Missouri and to some extent the Ohio and Illinois libers, down to New Orleans, there soon would be an outlet by water for the produce of St. Louis, Chicago, Kansas City. Pittsburgh and other towns directly to either coast of South America or to the world. The price of one scrapped dreadnaught would go a long way toward financing one of those enterprises.” The President has as yet given no personal consideration to ceremonial ways nnd means of scrapping American battle ships under the naval provisions of the Washington conference. It was indicated at the White House that he Is not opposed in principle to such a scheme. ’Whether it would most appropriately be carried out near American -bores In the V e TOWNE GOSSIP !

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, JANUARY 19, 1922.

I Atlantic or Pacific, or In mld-Paciflc, ! President Harding has not made up his j mind. He thinks some plan for simulr taueous sinking of scrapped craft at various symbolical points at sea migh* 1 not he i.measible. But the main thing, j It was emphasized, is “to scrap them.” i Somebody In pursuance of a tlmej worn stunt, came home from Europe [the other flay as a steerage passenger jin order to portray in heart-throbbing j terms the misery of a • fourth class pasj senger.” One of the complaints leveled j at officials at Ellis Island was that the ! experimenter, a lady, was “shouted at” and “jostled” ,when she came down the gangplank. James J. Davis, Secrelary of Labor, the Cabinet executive in charge of Immigration affairs, refers tp the Incident in an article just written for the i Alooseheart nfagazlne, the official organ jof the Royal Order of the Moose, of which he is the supreme potentate. ! “The truth of the matter is,” he writes, I "that with an economy policy in force in Washington we have only three or four attendants at Ellis Island to handle the crowds from a ship unloading 1,700 aliens.” * The star piece of the January Issue of the “American Consular Bulletin," just out, Is a hitherto unpublished addr css by Secretary Hughes to a newlygraduated class of young American diploma; s. “You are entering upon a service,” he said to them, “which is richer In Its promise today than It has ever been. 1 think we are entering upon a I new phase of the world’s history. As : we are forced Into more and more lm- | portant relations with other countries; and as Ihe Intimacy of the relations is ln- | creased, it is only a question of time ; when the full dignity, worth and necessity of the diplomatic service will lie r v'/ed generally by tho American people." . .Ie “American Consular Bulletin,” also prims TT" pyramid chart entitled i “What your consul does.” Here is a partial list of services performed during the fiscal year ended June 30. 1921: Protection and welfare cases, 45.075.

His gross cost In the fiscal year above mentioned was $4,400,598; his receipts, $8,317,0201 representing a net gain to the Governrueut of $1,111,422. There Is only one general, vociferous criticism leveled at Secretary Hughe* these day s—namely, that he is too stingy with his plenary sessions of the conference. it is nine weeks since that the .conference was opened. Including tho “bombshell” session of Nov. 12 there have been oily four plenary meetings, or an average of one every 2'* wet ks. Asa matter of fact, the interval had been vastly longer. Things began with a thrill and a bang with two “plenaries" within four days— Nov. 12 and Nov. 15. Then there was the llriatid spectacle of Nov. 21, the Lodge fidtr power treaty 'pageant of Dee. 10. and since then slle.ncc.

By order of Senator Curtis of Kansas, chairman of the Committee on Rules, historic seat ■ number 7, long occupied by the late Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania, was assigned to Senator Kenyon of lowa, "farm bloq" leader. There be those In ,Washington who will tell,you Kenyon is being groomed by '“farm hloeaters” as a some-day G <h P. candidate for the presidency.

HOUSE TO MAKE FIGHT ON DIRT FARMER’ BILL Measure, Passed by Senate, Faces Rough Sailing in 4 Lower House. „ • Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.--Tlie bill preparing a place for a “dirt farmer" on the ! Federal Reserve Board passed by the i Senate will meet intense opposition in the ' House, especially In the Banking and ! Currency Committee, according to predici tlons. Representative McFadderf of Pennsylvania, chairman of the committee, j made public his stand In a strong state- ; ment attacking the measure as violating I “principle and one of the main fundamentals of the system.” From various I quarters also, come confident predictions the bill^will be weighed In committee or on the floor which already have been Introduced. Those amendments, it was forecast, will be of a character likely to de- : lay tho measure Indefinitely If it reaches conference. “The Federal Reserve System should bo kept free from the control of politics, classes, or interests," Mr. McFadden said. “It was built to serve all the people, and if any special Interest!! are permitted to dominate, dictate or control It the sya tom eventually will he destroyed. If its fundamentals are wrong, let us correct them. If the Administration of the system Is wrong, the President has the power to correct that. OBJECTS TO AMENDMENT. “I understand also a Senate amendment provides that before any one of tho twelve Federal Reserve Bunks, nr any of the branches, enter Into contracts for buildings costing more than $250,000, the contracts shall be submitted to (Jon gross for approval. This provision should not be enacted. It Is governmental Interference with private business. And there Is Just as much reason that a national bank, contemplating the erection of n building In which to conduct its business, should first submit Its proposal to Congress. “The business' of the twelve Federal Reserve banks is conducted by a board of directors, six of whom are elected by its stockholders. These banks are private Institutions under Government supervision, the same kind y>f supervision that Is exercised over national und member hanks IS OPPOSED TO FEDERAL CONTROL. “Tjig Interest tiie United States Government has in the profits or earnings of these banks begins when the net earnings of the twelve Federal Reserve Ranks are established. The law provides a large per cent of these net earnings shall be- turned over into the public treasury annually as the franchise tax. For the Congress of tile Enlted States to have power to direct the business affairs of These banks is sn Improper function and opens the door to complete Government control of these Institutions. And INiiui unalterably opposed to the United States Government entering t*se banking business at this time.”— Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.

HENRY MILLER PLACES BLAME For Dearth of Stage Stars on Managers

“There has been a great deal of newspaper space devoted recently to the Increased popularity of American-made plays, and the dearth of alien composition* on our native market,” says Henry Miller, who, with his co-s’ar, Blanche Bates, comes to English's Monday night In James Forbes’ American comedy, "Tiie Famous Mrs. Fair.” “Some affirm that the wholesomeness of the American product is preferable to the morbid or salacious Intent of the foreign contributions. Others assert that tho World War Is responsible for the absence of foreign plays and the development of the native drarni ntist. j “Personally, 1 feel that the principal j cause lies In the capacity of the player more than in the draft of the play. The gradual decadence of great players and* the total absence of any recruits to fill the depleted ranks have had more to do with the fostering of plays than the development of players. “A decade ago we had men nnd women who adopted the theater as a profession. They became efficient in all branches of its activity. Today we have comparatively few players who take their profession seriously. This is not so much the fault of the players as it is the fault of j the management, as there are really very few managers who look to the artistic side of the theater. The big majority are green grocers who offer a thing for sale, not for exhibition. They engage a man or woman because he or she looks thf* part and not because they can play it. i The average manager today argues ‘Give the public what it wants.’ Tliu?--rhe producer follows the demand, whereas—in order to develop art —the producer should recede the demand and create a public for its offerings. ' The stage requires a Marconi, an Edison and a Graham Just ns much as science, and so long as we have drones attached to the hive of dramatic creation. Just so long will the drama be considered merely an adjunct In tho general scheme of national affairs and not a necessity in tiie actualities-of life. “The development of the player has become almost a lost art. IRt or she registers a success In the delineation of a certain character. Thereafter, every time this player Is offered anew part It Is along tho same linos as the one In which the hit was made. Thus the creative or versatile qualities of the player are dwarfed and the artistic development retarded. “I believe In giving Just ns perfect a presentation df a play as a painter would express upon a canvas for a salon or a sculptor chisel upon a inarbie for the Luxembourg. To me the stage is a sacred in all its functions as Scripture;

MEN AND BUSINESS By RICHARD SPILL AN E .special to Indiana Dally Time* and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By RiCHARD SPILLAN£. PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 19. Lazy money is like a lazy of little service. There’s a lot of lazy money in America today. It Is represented in part by the bank deposits of iarge corporations that are rich and powerful, but which are operating on only about one-half capacity. Money such as this on deposit brings small return, 2Vg per cent generally, 3 per cent In unusual instances. Various of these corporations have established dividend records, the United States Steel, for example, of 5 per cent on its common and 7 per cent on its preferred. Dividends must be earned from business, not from deposits in banks.

Concerning this error, the brief on the petition for rehearing says: “In discussing this question, the court, in Its opinion, makes the following statement, citing Volume 13 Corpus Juris, page 34, to wit: “Liberty of the press as guaranteed by Constitution does not permit publications respecting pending causes which are reasonably calculated to interfere with tiie line adminisiration of justice, lienee tiie rule is ivw firmly seitled that it is contempt to issue publications which are calculated to prejudice or prevent fair and impartial action in a cause or judicial Investigation then pending,” ete. “It I* true that this court has correctly stated one of the well known rules governing eases of criminal contempt, but. it 1* equally true that this rule has no nppliearion to the facts lu the instant case.

REPUBLICANS SUDDENLY GET THINGS MOVING Word From Back Home Showt to Senate Trend of Future Events. PEOPLE DISSATISFIED Special to Indiana Dally Tims* and Philadelphia Publio Ledger. ! WASHINGTON. Jan. 19.—Republican! 1 In the Seagte have set In motion party machinery to expedite the Administration’s legislative program.
