A LOT OF MUCK Possibly the twenty-six State Senators who responded to the call of. Chairman Walb of the Republican party will change their minds about carrying out his orders not to investigate the Stephenson scandals and other matters in which the people have an Interest. They will change their minds if the people who vote tell them emphaticallj that their biggest duty is to look carefully into the various charges that have been made against State officials and departments for which they must legislate. These Senators, "who are now being corralled under the name of party loyalty, are told that to investigate would be only to stir up a ‘ lot of muck. Well, if there is muck In the records of the State officials which has become a stench and made the name of Indiana something of a byword, it should be stirred up and cleaned up. It might, of course, be rather unpleasant for some of the State Senators to go too deeply into the matters of which the convict Stephenson said he had documentary proof. Very important State Senators and officials of the Senate were on very intimate terms with this one-time czar, who is trying desperately to get out of his prison cell. Asa matter of fact .their names have been linked unpleasantly with the Stephenson regime In matters um avory and worse. Certainly the State Senators must wish to know, for the people wish to know, why it was that the board of managers of the State prison over which the Legislature has power, met hurriedly at the bedside of a sick member in order to prevent six members of their body from seeing Stephenson at' a time he said he would furnish evidence of graft. That would seem not to be a matter of muck, but of open question as to whether such a board should continue in office. Nor can it be possible that all the twenty-six Republican Senators will obey the demand of Clyde Walb and Lieutenant Governor Van Orman and refuse to inquire Into the truth of the charges made by Corporation Counsel Rucker of this city that the utility companies practically bought the membership of the public service commission through contributions to the campaign in 1924. If these things be muck, then the people will demand a clean-up. The pressure that is being put by politicians upon the Marlon County grand jyiry, the appeal to Its attorneys not to indict but to hide, ought not to be powerful enough to make every member of the majority party in the State Senate forget all decency. It is quite possible that it will not be so easy after all. There are some things decent men do not do, and host of those twenty-six are more than decent. A word to them might help. THE FINAL DEGRADATION The movement to wipe out the pardon board and place the power of recommending paroles and pardons In the hands of judges who sentenced criminals should be resisted to the uttermost by those who do not wish the criminal laws to be put into the baggage of the politicians) For that is just what such a change would mean. It would make the sale of immunities to criminals by the politicians, and they do some of It now', much easier. The pardon hoard, no matter what mistakes it may make and how it may yield at times to influence from the appointing power, is removed to some extent from the politicians. Members of that board will testify to attempts to use them by men who deal in votes. If judges are given this power, it means that the judge will more and more be subject to political pressure. There have been many suggestions made by the men who succeeded Stephenson in power and who seek to perpetuate the system he installed In this State, but this is the worst. This final degradation of the State to bossism must not happen. WATSON AND SMITH It Is rather unkind for Senator to become so active at this time in denouncing the giving of money by Samuel Insull to the primary campaign in Illinois. Watson, with all the enthusiasm of anew convert to a cause, declares that it is unrigheous and unholy for utility magnates to finance senatorial campaigns, especially when the candidate happens lo be a member of the public service commission. That may be the distinction. But it doesn’t matter much. The people probably will agree with Watson that such contributions do not make for a government by the people. But they may wonder where it was that Watson got his campaign fodder in all the years and especially in his past campaign. They might even believe that if utility and Insull dollars are tainted steel dollars are somewhat dirty. But the Watson crusade ought to have Its good effect at home and lend some courage to those who think that utilities ought not to contribute commanding and dominating sums to campaigns. It might even persuade State Senators, who say that they want no inquiries, that they really ought to know whether the charge that Insull and other utilities gave a big sum to the 1924 campaign in which the make-up of the public service commission was settled, is true. Os course, Watson may be Just giving the Nation a chance to smile. For In the role of defender of elections from corporation corruption and debauchery, Watson Is funny. AN OVERWORKED GHOST ' Administration newspapers are bound to sell that “specter of a Mexican-fostered Bolshevist hegemony’’ in Central America to the people of this country if it takes their last barrel of ink. The motive is twofold. .First, the State Department got into hot water to its eyebrows when it induced the Associated Press to broadcast the specter story for it (while the responsible officials remained under cover) so now those papers which fell for it are naturally anxious to have the “specter’’ make good. Second, as the British Manchester Guardian

points out, the Administration is preparing the ground for possible drastic action in Mexco shortly and it knows from experience that it can generally rely on the American public to get wrought up every time the “red specter of Bolshevism” is dangled in its face. Thus, is one faithful, but rather moth-eaten, “specter” being paraded up and down and around the country, appearing here as the reason for American intervention in Nicaragua and there is an excuse for American intervention in Mexico. It is Coolidge economy applied to save needless wear and tear on spooks. Meantime Adolfo Diaz, conservative president of Nicaragua, recently recognized by the United States, Is making his friends in this country look ridiculous. He strives to please by accusing his opposition, the Liberals, under former Vice President Sacasa, of being Bolshevists, but at the same time he does his best to get them to take jobs in his cabinet and help run the country. He also accuses Mexico of fostering Bolshevism in Nicaragua and doipg all sorts of dire and sinister things against his country, yet he says unless the United States supports him in power he’ll make friends with Mexico. “Give me the support you promised,” he says in effect to the United States, “or I'll make up with the enemy.” Thus, either the Liberals of Nicaragua and the menacing Mexicans are not half as red as they are painted or Diaz is too fickle an ally to tie to. If the now familiar old “specter of a Mexican-fostered hegemony” is really about to gobble up Nicaragua, Diaz ought to be planning to do a Custer’s Last Stand against it, not embrace it. Really Diaz should be more considerate. It's not very dignified, not to say convincing, to have our State Department and its ready propagandists going to the mat to save him from a lot of terrible people while he himself makes goo-goo eyes at them. Americans may be too busy keeping their date with Santa Claus to see the humor of the situation, but we doubt it. THE BASEBALL SCANDAL “I don’t believe it,” said Clark Griffith. He was commenting last night on the baseball scandal Involving the names of Ty Cobb, Tris Speaker, Joe Wood and Dutch Leonard. And the disbelief —or the desire not to believe — voiced by the Old Fox, is echoed in the heartß of boys between the ages of eight and eighty all over the land. For these four men are among the boys’ national heroes and can not be given up easily. The story is that the.players threw an important game in a pennant race, away back in 1919, in an effort to make money by betting on the result. Judge Landis has made the story public. It is hard to see what else Judge Landis could have done, considering the possible temptations there is reason for pride in scarcity of scandals in organized baseball. But the only way to keep baseball clean is to expose it to the sunlight. Covering up the present charges would cause more, rather than fewer, scandals In the long run DIGGERS AND FARMERS Agriclture Secretary Jardine in his 1925 report: “Our agricultural exports for the year ended June 30, 1925, were 21 per cent greater in volume than in the previous year and 26 per cent greater than the aver age for the five years just preceding the outbreak of the world war. The value of these exports was more than double the value of the agricultural exports of any pre-war year.” Agriculture Secretary Jardine In his 1926 report: “In 1901 our agricultural exports made up 65.2 percent of our total exports. By 1913 the proportion had dropped to 43-6 per cent. In the year ended June 30, 1926, the proportion was only 40.6 per cent.” What a change in viewpoint lias resulted from a little agricultural agitation against the present high protective tariff for industry. The secretary is “now strongly convinced that the relative advantage of tariff protection will swing definitely to the side of agriculutre as the dependence on foreign markets grows less and that of our industrialists becomes greater.” THE CRISIS "America and the Crisis in Law Observance and Enforcement,” is the subject announced for a meeting in Wasihngton, Jan. 6. It Is called by the “Citizens’ Committee of One Thousand for Law Observance” The men calling this meeting are prohibitionists. Is It possible that It may occur to some of them that, the present “crisis” is itself a result of the law they are gathering to support? THE BRIBERY CHARGE Albert B. Fall and Edward L. Doheny were found not guilty of conspiracy to defraud the Government by a District of Columbia jury. Charges of bribery growing out of the same transaction are still pending under other indictments. These charges should be prosecuted. Two Federal courts have held in civil cases that the 9il involved were made fraudulently. A grand jury has returned criminal Indictments declaring that the Dohenys, senior and Junior, gave a bribe and Fall accepted it. They should stand trial. Famous tie-ups: Ships, traffic, malls, red ribbons, holly, the Christmas packages for Aunt Emma'i, and, oh yes, the mistletoe! As for the barbbr In Wisconsin who also is coroner we can only suggest the sign: “Inquests for the Bald.” When it snows in New York you can hire a sleigh for $25 an hour. Pretty smooth?

.Enough Dirty Linen Without Digging Up Old Baseball Scandal,

By M. E. Tracy Judge Landis treats the country to an odd sensation. It centers on an affair that is seven years old, involves men that are out of baseball and presents an issue that has been dead too long for even an obituary. You can’t help wondering why he did it. Even if the evidence were conclusive, which it is not, the exposure of such a scandal at this late day would hardly be in order. We have quite enough dirty linen on our hands, not only in sport, but in other lines, without having somebody raking over the trash pile of a previous generation. Probe Epidemic Either the past few yeai-s have witnessed such rottenness in our Government as was never before known, or the Senate is being asked to undertake a lot of useless probes. You wonder if It will have any time left for making laws, considering appropriation bills, approving treaties or passing on the fitness of presidential appointees. First and foremost, it is faced with the task of digging into the slush fund scandals, which moat people thought would go over to the next session, but which Frank L. Smith, Senator-elect from Illinois, seems determined to impose on this one. Then there is the case of Senator Gould of Maine, who is charged with having been concerned in the bribery of a New Brunswick official some fifteen years ago and wants to be Investigated right now. There is also the question of whether Federal patronage has been sold in the South, whether Negroes are permitted to enjoy their full rights as citizens, whether alien property has been honestly administered and whether Jesse Smith died by his own hand. Something's Wrong You can pass all this off as Just politics, attribute it to scandal, or explain it in any other way that suits your fancy, but you cannot get away from the fact that there is something definitely wrong. The thing Is simple without precedent in our history. We have hud periods of muck-racking and seasons ot-probes, but never to compare with this. Have we adopted anew moral code, or has the full dinner pail made us dumb? The most appalling aspect of the situation is the indifference and un concern with which each exposure is received. Legal “Speak-Easy" The Government runs a “speakeasy” to discover bootleggers and trap dry agents, as was brought out In the New York Federal Court on Monday, but who cares? Two Cabinet officers are indicted and put on trial for serious charges, but who is alarmed, though nothing like it ever occurred before? Senatorial campaigns cost ten time as much as that which led to the Newberry scandal, but who feels ashamed? We are excusing quite a few 1 things, it seems, on the ground that business Is good. Colorful Roumania A dying KirT, restless Queen and a wayward Prince lend color to the ever-colorful Roumanian situation. Old Ferdinand, sick and tired of his Job, wants his son, Carol, to come home and take the throne. Carol is willing, but only If his former wife Is made to leave the country and the present conserva tive regime put out of business. The Liberals, lo whom Carol j looks for support, are not so enthusiastic about following his lead unless he consents to a reconciliation with his former wife. Queen Marie, undoubtedly the cleverest of them all, and not the least ambitious, maintains a continued but not meaningless silence. She will yet have a hand in shaping the course of events, and that is what worries everybody most. Risky Game* Meanwhile and as though Europe didn’t have enough on its hands in the Roumanian mess, Lithuania must stage a "putsch." Russia the "putsch" was made in Poland and Is designed to carry out a trade between that country and the Germans, the big idea being that Poland is to grab and annex Eithuania, while Berlin gets Danzig back. Just to let folks knpw that he is among those present, Mussolini not only aramges a treaty with Germany which is of such character as to greatly disturb France, but picks a quarrel with the Pope, al though, as he himself admits, the Pope scolded about incidents that are of the past. ,* These things are on the surface, and may signify nothing more than the usual bluff and blather of secret diplomacy, but they bespeak one of those risky games which a false word or a chance shot could convert into trouble. GREAT LOTTERY CLOSES Millions of Christmas Money Distributed in Spain. Bu United Pretn MADRID Dec. 22.—Millions of dollars In Christmas prize money was released for distribution today, after all Spain has waited enthralled with suspense during the annual drawing for the great State lottery whose first prize amounted to approximately $2,250,000. Ticket No. 17,229 won this year as an orphaned child from a local institution manipulated two bowls that two by two dropped numbered discs which determined the prize winners.

The Christmas Blues Are Not So Blue When You Have Right Kind of Music

By Walter D. Hickman. Blues are blues any time of the year, but some people get the Christmas blues. But there is a grand and glorious way to chase the yuletlde blues away. And the method is this: Use the right kind of music on your phonograph. Kbelton Brooks, on anew Okeh rec ord, tells you in melody, by the aid of a dash of piano and hi* ba. tone voice. "When You're Really Blue." He claims that you ure really blue 1 when you are In the Jail or when you go to your best girl’s house and find another horse In the stable. On the other side. Brooks sings, | “You Sure Am One Sick Man.” The old-fashlened tunes are most welcomed on Christmas day, and tunes that your grunddaddy and grandmother listened to years ago. It is true that many of these old tunes have yielded to the syncopating baton and others are done In -he old-fashioned way. Okeh has many of these old-time | melodies and I will list these Okeh's as follows: "By the Side of the Omelette Sea.” sung by Billy Joues. tenor, with piano; "Everybody's Got a Girl,” sung by Ernest Hure. baritone. Botli are comedy numbers. Sentimental Numbers "The Picture That Is Turned to the Wall." and "Pictures from Life’s Other Side.” two very sentimental numbers done by Vernon Dalhart, tenor, with fiddle and guitar. The word "fiddle” explains the oldfashioned nature of these two numbers. "The Railroad of Life” and “The Haven of Rest”- —two old-fashioned religious numbers done by the Jenkins family. This family just gets around an old-fashioned organ and sings these tunes. “The Old-Fashioned Meeting” and "A Child of the King.” both done by Homer A. Rodeheaver, baritone. This man’s voice is well known to

Don’t Forget Your Partnership Obligations in Bidding,

By Milton C. Work The pointer for today lit When determining whether to assist your partner’s suit-bid or to name your own declaration, be neither grasping nor timid; bid conventionally. This pointer is an important one for many players. Some are eo anxious to play the Dummy, that they forget their partnership obligations; with normal support and sound assistance for partner’s Major suit, so that game Is more probable with that than* anything else, they will bid their own hands Instead of assisting. Others (a distinct minority, I admit) are so timid that they fear the strain of playing the Dummy and so raise their partner’s suit without normal support. It Is quite true that when one player Is very much stronger than his partner, it Is sound team work to frame the bidding so that the stronger player obtains the contract; but only on exceptional occasions Is this situation admitted, and the advl>j we are giving Is intended to apij generally. There are many cases In which, over a partner’s No Trump, it Is advisable to bid a Major suit so as to give the No Trumper a choice between the two declarations; but that is distinctly the opposite of denying the No Trump. With Major suit strength (high cards) and length (five cards or more), it would be a serious error to fail to overcall the No Trump, as the overcall assures (No Trump help and if the No Trumper do not like the Major suit named by his partner, he can return to the No Trump. But when a Major suit has been named original. Iy by the partner, to shift to some other suit or to a No Trump when holding normal support Is generally most unsound. Many cases occur In which a Dealer starts with a Major, Second Hand bids another suit and Third Hand, with normal support for his partner’s Major and with one stopper in the adverse suit, seems to consider it his duty to bid No Trump (presumably to show his stopper, which is comparatively unimportant), and thus does hot support his partner’s Major. With the bidding; South one Spade, West two Hearts; North holding Sp.: x-x-x. Ht.: Ace-x-x. Di.: King-x-x. Cl.: Ace-Jack-x-x. should bid two Spades, not two No Trumps. Normal support will be tomorrow’s subject. “(Copyright, John F. Dille Cos.)

HIRED FOR ATTACK ON WIFE, PLEA Bu Vnitrii rretts CHICAGO, Dec. 22.—Three hnndlts arraigned in court here told a story of beating and robbing s woman “because her husband hired ue to do It.” “We were sent by Jack Schewell to the home of William Feldman to beat and rob Mrs. Feldman,” Paul Taxman, Fred I’oncher and Samuel Rlebman said. Schewell Is said to be the operator of a gambling establishment. Feldman Is a picture frame manufacturer. "Schewell told us Feldman wanted It done and that If we were arrested Feldman had enough political pull to get us out of It,” they "Schewell told us especially not hurt Feldman, but said he didn’t care what we did to Mrs. Feldman.’* Mrs. Feldman nearly died from the beating. Judge Emanuel Eller asked FVldman in court: "Can this possibly be true?" Feldman denied It, but Judge Eller issued a warrant for ScheweH’s arrest and delayed sentencing the bandits on their pleas of guilty until a complete hearing can be held.
