LIQUOR SENTENCE UPHELD Muneie Man Loses Appeal on Conviction in Transporting Charge. Supreme Court Judge Fred C. Gause has affirmed judgment of the Delaware County Circuit Court in convicting Court Asher, Muneie, on charges of transporting liquor. Asher’s appeal said he was walking down an alley in the city of Muneie and was arrested without a warrant or affidavit. He said the offense did not constitute transportation within the meaning of the statute. Judge Gause held otherwise. GOVERNMENT LIKE ENGLISH FORM IS IITEMEME ‘Responsible’ Type Would Last Only as Long as People's Confidence. By HERBERT QUICK WASHINGTON, Feb. B.—" Responsible government" is the kind of government which changes whenever the Congress, or Parliament, or whatever the law-making body is called, refuses to support the administration. It changed In Great Britain. And now easily! The King delivered his message. The people in power offered a resolution, a reply to the message. And then the opposition—like the Democrats and Progressives in our Congress—offered an amendment to the reply to the King's message. It was a very’ simple amendment. It only suggested that the men in office did not possess the confidence Three High Schools Furnish Debate Tearn HUTCHINSON STORER Three Indianapolis high schools are represented on the Butler University debating team.

of the House. It passed, and under the system of responsible government the old crowd resigned at once and a labor government took their places. No shooting, no mobs, but a revolution —a peaceful revolution. Can we have such a system in this country? Easily, if we desire it—and most of the sound thinkers believe that it is the best form of government. Responsible government, which Last only so long as the people through their representatives have confidence in it. The King does not govern. Gov-

ernment is carried by the cabinet. The King does not change when the government changes. The cabinet changes. In our country, while the President does a lot of governing, the business is carried on more and more by the Cabinet. This is because it 13 too much for any one man. If we were to change our system so that the President did no governing at all personally, but only through his Cabinet, and if wo gave to the majority in the House of Representatives the power to appoint the Cabinet, we

should have an approach to the plan. Then, if whenever the policy of the Government failed to muster a majority in the House on a Government measure, the Cabinet wore obliged to resign, we should have "responsible government." It would work out like this in 1924. President Coolidgo would deliver a message. Congressman Longworth would move, as he would be required to do by the rules, a reply to the message. Garner of Texas, or Nelson of Wisconsin would move an amendment to the reply saying, “But the House

respectfully suggests to the President that his present government does not possess the confidence of this House.” The amendment to the reply would be carried by a coalition of Democrats and Progressives. Immediately the whole Cabinet would resign. Immediately the House would name new members of anew Cabinet. The new Cabinet would take over all the departments. The President would be obliged under the law to accept their advice on everything. It would really be a Government by the House of Representatives, with

the Senate possessed of law-making powers as now. We should not have to wait four years for a change in Government if public sentiment happenned to change. The men running the departments would always bo in sympathy with the Congress. The President would be a cipher, with certain ornamental and historic funotions. But the Government would be vastly more democratic than now. The will of the people would come much nearer to having something to do with their Governmental policies.

A sixteen-story office building, with a large restaurant on the top floor, recently was completed In Stockholm. It corresponds in many ways with American skyscrapers. At least four email Islands were "born” in 1923. Two appeared off the coast of Cochin-China, one off the Japanese, and the fourth in the Bay of Bengal. The women of Lapland are among the smallest in the world, averaging only four feet nine inches in height.
