WHY THE FEAR? It Is now announced that on the legal advice of . Senator James E. Watson, assurance is being given 'by Clyde Walb, chairman of the Republican party, that the Senate committee of Senator Reed of IVWssouri has no authority to conduct a probe in this State. The Senator is quoted, whether by authority or not is questionable, as telling the leader of his camz paign that the resolution under which Reed dis--closed gigantic frauds in Pennsylvania and Illinois limits him to the primaries and that he has no power to dig into the present election. It is reported that Walb is giving this assurance to men on his ticket who seem to have some misgiving about a visit from the Reed committee. They should, is willing to admit that lie is an irresponsible libeler, be the first to seek • the intervention of Reed into the State. Three days ago Clyde Walb made the most serious charge yet made in this campaign. ' It was more grave than those of Stephenson in regard to corruption, bribery and graft during the days when he ruled the State. For Walb charged, in an open letter to Senator Borah that there is “evidence everywhere” that the money barons of Wall Street have gone into every precinct in the State with money which they put ; into the pockets of “fakirs” for the purpose of insuring slanders and libels. There was no qualification of the charge. He gave as the reason for this wholesale debauchery which *he said was in evidence everywhere and whose activities he had seen, was punishment for the two .Republican Senators and Congressmen for their .'stand on the League of Nations. He told Borah that he had just been in conference with a member of the Coolidge cabinet and gave the plain inference that his letter went with that indorsement. The only attitude which Senators Watson and Robinson took on that question was in opposition -■to that of President Coolidge. The charge of corruption by venal interests because of that vote is a charge against Coolidge for if those interests are willing to debauch a State to get revenge upon Watson and Robinson, what grip " did they hold upon Coolidge whose policies he fought? It is more than strange, then, that Walb should now be concerned in preventing an inquiry into his own charge of wholesale corruption of the coming -election. • If he has any evidence at all, such a protest might be expected from the “fakirs" who, says Walb, have this corrupt money in their pockets. The men who might be reasonably expected to -fight against the coming of the Reed committee • would be the people he says are corrupting the 1 State, not those who, says Walb, are targets for a . purchased campaign of slander. This newspaper believes that this charge by Walb cannot be passed over and it appeals to Walb who made his charge, to disregard any senatorial advice he may have, and waive any objections. His own self respect should demand that he ask the aid of the one organized machine for investigation in broadcasting that evidence which he says is everywhere. To endeavor to stop such a probe is to cast suspicion upon himself and his charges. Why should he be anxious to assure the candidates on the ticket he is trying to elect that the -Reed committee has no legal right to investigate his own charge? Would you not expect him to call them together, marshal his State committee, and ask them to join in a demand upon Reed to come in and use whatever authority he has to discover the debauchers of the coming election. Would-you not expect him to take this means of saving his congressional candidates from defeat by any such methods? / 1 It is hardly complimentary to read that Walb committed a “political blunder.” Men do not blunder when they tell the truth. He made a blunder only if he sent that serious charge to Borah with real lor fancied approval of a cabinet member and had no basis for his charge. That would have been a bluntler. There Is yet time to redeem himself from the rapidly growing suspicion of the truth of his charges. He can do it by responding to the open letter of The Times and asking Senator Reed to hurry his committee to Indiana and conduct a search for the money of those international bankers who, he said, have put their money inf he pockets of “fakirs” in every precinct in the Star* , He need have no fear that Senator Reed would under any circumstance fail to conduct a real inquiry. Perhaps he had this in mind when he said that the money came from the international bankers. Senator Reed has often in the past sounded a warning against just these influences. He might be reasonably expected to welcome just the proof that Walb says Is to be had on every hand and everywhere. Mr. Walb, are you a political blunderer or are you a courageous man intent upon protecting the State from debauchery? Your attitude and activity in the matter of securing the coming of (he Reed committee will write the verdict for the people. THE ASTOUNDING ASPECT Amazing and terrifflc as were the charges relayed from I lie prison cell of I). C. Stephenson that he could prove huge corruptions and briberies and . graft, there is something even more amazing and ' teriflic in its significance. That is the universal reception of the people of ' Indiana of the apparent liklihood of his charge, so universal that upon every lip is the question of whether the law has forced him to disgorge proof or if he has offered it in a spirit of revenge. What would have happened had any other inmate of the penitentiary made the same charge? No attention would have been paid to it. Not a newspaper would have printed it. Certainly none of the great Metropolitan dailies would have sent their best investigators to the State. What would have happened had any other citizen, aside from those who were the political friends and associates of Stephenson hurled the same challenge?

The chances are that his friends would have put him in the Insane asylum. . N Yet everywhere and everyone accepts as a fact that it is quite possible that Stephenson could if he so desired, produce every document which his smuggled letters said that he could prove. That alone should remind the people of this State of the source of their present government and the bulwark of the present candidates for office. It should remind them that men now great and men now seeking office were the beneficiaries of his power. Had there not already been more than a suspicion that the things he said he could prove were true, at least to some degree, there would have been an outburst of Indignation. Instead there followed an appalled, an expectant silence on the part of the people and a greater silence and a more significant one on the part of those in power. For five days there Vas no promise of an inquiry of any sort. It was only when Theodore Roosevelt appeared at La Grange and demanded some expression on the part of officials that there was any activity. Colonel Roosevelt, from his sick bed, telegraphs confirmation of the fact that he urged publicity and a full investigation and that “Republican leaders present at that time, including Governor Jackson and Clyde Walb. stated their agreement with this position.” They had not stated this as their position until Colonel Roosevel had put them on record. The people are no longer intent on merely what Stephenson may or may not produce. They understand that a man under a life sentence is free from ordinary limitations. He need fear nothing more than has been done to him. Jails mean nothing. Penalties do not terrify. Only his keepers and guards can menace his comfort. The people are intent on self-examination. They are beginning to wonder why they were not amazedThey are wondering about this astounding aspect of the matter. A GOOD HEAD OF HAIR The bronze-red hair of Evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson was unpinned, uncoiled, and shaken down in the Los Angeles courtroom during her hearing on a charge of conspiracy. Aimee’s masses of hair have figured prominently in this strange case. One reads no words of description of the magnetic woman without happening upon a paragraph of comment on the masses and coils and piles of her red-brown hair, golden-sleeked. The reason why Aimee let down her trestes in court was to satisfy the incredulity of some miscreant who opined that the hair was but pinned on- The majesty of the court seemed to find it vital to know whether Aimee s tresses were attached by nature or hairpins, and commanded “Itapunzel, Rapunzel, let down thy hair,” which was done. A gtir ran over the courtroom, we read, and strong men leaned the nearer to see and drink their fill. Thereby proving that the world, at least the male world, gains certain aesthetic satisfaction from “a good head of hair” that cannot be inspired by a shingled pate.

BUSINESS IS BUSINESS By N. D. Cochran ■

In criticising the Detroit Young Men's Christian Association for withdrawing their invitation to president Green, of the American Federation of Labor, to speak from their platform, it is but fair to look at both sides of the question. President Van Dusen, of the Y\ M. C. A., was quite frank about it. He explained that there is a campaign on to raise $5,000,000 for anew building. The Kresge Company, of which he is manager, operates 5 and-10-cent stores. Kresge himself is one of the biggest contributors to the Anti-Saloon League ajid the great cause of prohibition. The Kresge Company gave $500,000 toward the $5,000,000 \’. M. C. A. building. Henry Ford gave $1,500,000 and the Fisher Body Company dumped in another $500,000. The Fisher Body Company makes automobile bodies and sells them to manufacturers of automobiles. So these three advocates of the open shop gave half of the $5,000,000) and might be said to have a half ownership in the proposed new building to house the young male Christians of Detroit. While most of the five millions has been subscribed it has not all been paid. So Mr. Van Dusen thought it would he indiscreet to have the president of the American Federation of Labor talk to the young Christians in his charge. , President Green is a Christian, so far as that part of it goes. He belongs to the Baptist Church, which has. a very large number of perfectly ‘good Christians and 100 per cent Americans in its devout membership. But President Green is more than a Christian church member. He is a labor leader. While it is possible to be a Christian and at the same time a leader of labor or of capital, and most of the employers and employes in Detroit industries are Christians and church members, still there are sharp differences of opinion on non Christian issues between leaders of capital and labor in the wonderful city of Detroit. For instance Brother Green believes that working people have a right to organize and to bargain collectively. Brother Kresge and his manager, together with other contributors to the $5,000,000 Y. M. C. A. building, don't agree with him. They concede to employers the right to organize into a Manufacturers’ Association, or union, and to bargain collectively with each Indlvdual worker, hut hardly think it fair for the workers to organize and bargain collectively with a single employer or even an association of them. They believe they are right, of course. And, so believing, quite naturally they want their Christian brethren in the Detroit Y. M. C. A. and churches which they support to believe as they believe. They don't want to put up live million in good American dollars for a nice new Y’. M. C. A. building and then have some labor leader, even if he is a Christian church member, walk up onto the platform of their building and tell them they're all wrong. , It is possible that they fear that even if President Green is a member of the Baptist Church and hence a Christian, he might not believe in the same kind of Christianity they do. Anyhow the big employers are putting up the money to put up the new building to spread the Christian doctrine among the young, so they feel they ought to have something to say about what goes on in that building. Being successful business men they are cautious about making safe investments. Being discreet business men they naturally expect discreet management of a discreet Y’oung Men’s Christian Association. So you see there are two ways of looking at this question. Christianity may be Christianity all right, but at the same time business is busnestr. NEXT: If They Abolish Hell.

Tracy Art of Politics Today l.s I Illustrated by Wat- * son’s Friends,

By M. E. Tracy , The art of fwlitics in this good day and generation is to switch issue* — dropping any that may lie too hot for you and substituting those tluit will prove most embarrassing to the other fellow. Ogden Mills, wet candidate pinning on a semi-dry platform for Governor of New Y’ork, talks about milk. Friends of Senator Jim YVatson, faced with the ikissibility of defeat through exposure of the Indiana Kliin machine, shout that. Wall Street is trying to destroy hint, because he voted against the World Court. -I- -I- -|. Machine Guns Now Banditry has stimulated a campaign for more drastic anti-pistol laws, but what good will that do If machine guns are readily obtainable? Man, whether good or bad, is too inventive to be checked by taking any particular Instrument out of his hands. They killed and robbed before gun powder was discovered not to mention revolvers. The idea of curing crime hy wnmeg other method than meeting it square® ly is plain rot. Whin we fall hack on the good, old-fashioned custom of catching criminals nnd of not paying too much attention to whether they use guns, knives, blackjacks or arsenic, we will get somewhere. i -I- -I* -I- ‘ Inventions Not So Good French scientists have developed two kinds of fuel in what has become a nation-wide struggle to free their country from American oil. One is synthetic gasoline produced from coal and water while the other is just plain ordinary wood made available by anew type of auto en gine. ♦ The trouble is that France has no spare coal from which to make the gasoline and no wood for the new engine. -I- -I- -I’ That Jersey Leopard New Jersey's leopard died Just be fore dawn Friday, after having roamed at will for more than two months. It was fat and sleek with the spoil of many a barn yard and showed no ill-effects of the worry that a State-wide hunt instituted to run it down should have caused. As is true of most evil-doers, it came to grief through its own weakness and self-assurance. An appetite for ducks led it to YYil • lard Iron’s farm night after night and it didn't have sense enough to know when to quit. Willard gave it plenty of warn® ing. too. by setting traps into whirl!® it fell but which wore not strong enough to hold it Finally he got an otter trap, with double springs and the leopard was caught, shot and shipped to the own er. who will mount it as one of the numerous specimens—practically the only one in captivity—that had made the summer so interesting for New Jersey. -I- -I- IAsquith Takes Back Seat Having tried in vain to read Lloyd George out of the Liberal party in England. Lord Asquith now reads himself out. Small as the party lias become, there is not room for both | of them In it. not as leaders at least. The final clash came over Lloyd I George's refusal to characterize the recent general strike as illegal. Lloyd George has always contended tfiat the government failed to do what it might, and that lalmr was virtually nagged into a posi/inn where it had to register a definite protest for its own self-respect. With him as leader, and with Asquith taking a hack seat, it is not impossible that the Liberal and Labor parties may find a basis for cooperation. which could not fail to have a marked effect on EngVand's political future. I- I IRight Kind of Charity August Heekscher, who wants (o raise half a hillion dolars with which to wipe out the slums of New York, and who is willing to hark the project with a lot of his own says that millionaires are under ligations to give away at least a of their fortunes. E. YV. Seripps, who founded the great chain of independent newspapers, of which this is one. said that it is an economic crime to give somqthing for nothing, or accept something for nothing. There is probably a way to reconcile these two ideas, a way to dissipate wealth and make it serve the common good without creating so many free institutions. What people really need, and what self-respecting people prefer, Is not ehnrity, hut justice, not a handout, hut opportunity. The tragic mistake of philanthropy in America consists in the fact that it has erected too many posts for hums to lean against. The help that counts is that which goes tp the people xvho help themselves, and which is reasonably contingent on their willingness to do so. There are certain types, who from disease, accident or misfortune, cannot contribute much to their own support, and who must he accepted and taken care of as publia charges. For the well and strong, however, it is had business and bad morals to provide comforts, facilities and opportunities which they can get without effort on their own part. THOMAS HOWE TO SPEAK Thomas Howe, former president® of Butler University, will address the men of the Loyalty Olub of the Immanuel Reformed Church, Prospect and S. New Jersey Sts., Tuesday night on "Our Loyalty and Our American Ideals.” His address will be preceded by a dinner served by :-women of the church. Ni ■■ •
