STRANGE r—tr-q! 11] movement to make Senator Watson PresiMOVES IN I dent I Jar dinar’s campaign manager next year POLITICS creates a peculiar situation in Indiana politics. Watson has been generally considered in Indiana as a candidate for the Republican nomination. However, now that Harding lias evidently thrown his hat delinitely in the ring, it appears it will be necessary lor the G. O. P. cither to nominate hint or to repudiate his administration, thus admit-J ting Republican control of governmental affairs. It jpav be that the management of the Harding campaign will be offered Watson for the purpose of giving him a high place in the party and at the same time keeping him from being a dangerous opponent of the President. Campaign managers have a way of receiving important appointments if their candidates are 1 successful and Watson would be taken care of in this way. The peculiar part of such an arrangement would come from the presence of Postmaster General New in the situation. Wat- j son. if numerous reports can be relied on, actively opposed tbe ' appointment of New to the Cabinet. If Watson should become i associated with the Harding campaign it would mean he would also be associated with New This undoubtedly would result in a new line-up in things political in Indiana. Stranger things have happened. NEW FIELD--'* y EARLY forty years ago Comte do 1 hardouOPEN FOR < net, Frenchman, discovered how to make CHEMISTS .X. artificial silk from nitric acid and cellulose.!

We expected it all along, and therefore arc oOt overcome with. • 'xe.itement at the news, nor overwhelm ! with a desire to discuss this very regular, routine trer : < f e\ *:,ts. What is vastly more significant to the Ameri an public than Mr. Harding's decision to run for re-election is the fact that jehad to announce it two years before his present term of office expires. Mr. Harding’s present job is but half done, in point of time, still less has been accomplished from the point o f view of actual 1 achievements. His office is snowed under with work to be done, and yet he plans to leave if now to go out flying Ids kite for renomination and re-elect ion This is no special criticism we mete out to Mr. Harding personally. His predecessor? in the White House of both political faiths have generally done the simn thing that he is about to !o, saw back and forth to keep potential rivals of his own party from encroaching upon his right to renomination. During the next two years, Mr. Harding will probably be called upon to give his best thought to cinching the renomination. The same can be said for his Attorney General, and possibly his Secretary of War. lie has just chosen Harry New of Indiana for Postmaster General not for the purpose of running the post office system, but to run Republican politics. And so it goes It is an inefficient, impractical system which requires this, of a President of the United States It is not to the country’s good interest, and it works to the neglect of the public good. This situation is not to he blamed so much upon the men in office as to the ancient customs and practices with which we still content ourselves. Mr. Harding’s premature announcement of his candidacy is merely another example point in - to the need of rebuilding our government, either through constitutional amendments. or convention, to meet the needs of our sons, rather than those of our very distinguished forefathers.

Kay Laurell, Noted Beauty and Broadway Star, Warns of White Way; Model's Murder Shows Peril

March 24. — In the shadows of the shimmering ■*- ' lights of Broadway are enaeted daily hundreds of tragedies of which the Dorothy K’ g murder was just one of the many closing chapters.

Neither the veterans nor the public will endure an aborted inquiry. The thing is too sinister. Anywhere in the United Starts, in California, in New York, and between, you may hear the worst reports of things done in this great, bureau which charge such an abandonment of a sacred trust in tiio past as to fill the decent citizen’s mind witii shame. These stories are told with detail and circumstantiality. They are either true or false, and the country wants to know wtdeh. Tills bureau handled more money under a single head, money devoted to a sacred purpose, than any bureau ever handled in our history, and probably in all history. It handled more than either the War or tin- Navy Department, more than all the other civil activities of the United States.

It was not long before she wanted - to spend all her time in the gambling dene. Even old “daddy” couldn’t keep up with her. He finally dropper her—as most “daddies” eventually do.

for spring and early summer use are a good combination for the northern States. In addition plants such as basseila, swiss ( hard and New Zealand spinach thrive during warm weather. By the use of eoldframes. coverings of straw or pine boughs and other means of protection, spinach and kale may be carried through the #.nter rather far north. Beds on which late fail, winter and early spring kale and spinach are grown should be raised three to six inches above the surrounding surface so as to drain well. They are best located on a southern or eastern exposure to get the full benefit of the sun. A shelter of pine boughs or corn fodder along the north and west sides of the beds are a great protection against cold and wind. Plenty of fertilizer is essential where fall plantings are made for spring use. Highly nitrogenous fertilizers should not be applied until after the cold weather or until active growth of tho plants begins. The season for greens on the table can be prolonged by canning the surplus grown during the spring and summer Mixtures of young tender beet tops, swiss chards, mustard and other greens may be made. In combining the mixture for canning only a small proportion of mustard or of any pungent green material should be used. NEXT: Root crops for health and beauty.
