U. S. MAYORS FUSS IN PARIS OVERSPEECHES Think Oregon Executive Is Getting All of ‘Glory’ and Trouble Brews. By United Prset PARIS. May 27.—Friction today developed among American mayors touring France. An open row narrowly was averted at a luncheon given them at the town hall by the municipal council. After the half-hour address at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier by Mayor George Baker of Portland, Ore. chairman of the party, some of the mayors began complaining that, he was "dominating the show.” Rich food and bubbling champagne lavished on the mayors failed to soothe their tempers. At the conclusion of the spectacular municipal ceremonies and the presentation to the city of a bust of the late Ambassador Myron T. Herrick. Mayor Daniel W. Hoan of Milwaukee suggested that a different chairman be elected daily. Others evinced a desire to settle the matter ‘‘right, here in the town hall.” Baker urged the mayors to be quiet and not indulge in an unbecoming row before the dignified mayor of Parts, Count Jean de Castellane, and Marsha.l Lyautey. The mayors then agreed on an "executive session,” and met at Claridge’s to determine who should speak and how long. A committee of five, representing all sections of the country, finally was named to govern the tour as a sort of "soviet council,” taking turns daily at, speechmaking and appointing speakers.

“/"\N the whole, it would be V/ extremely difficult for any one to prove that the supreme court <United States) has not done more harm than good through the exercise of the assumed power to declare laws unconstitutional.” It is paragraphs like the above which make "Fifty Years of Party Warfare,” by Professor William 6. Lynch of Indiana university (Bobbs Merrill), worth the reading, even if it were not for the manner in which, deftly and with meticulous care for accuracy, he paints pictures of the political events of the first fifty years of this nation. Professor Lynch set himself at a most difficult task. He attempts to give students of history and politics a kaleideoscopic view of what went on in the minds of the political leaders of the republic, and condense this information in 476 pages. a a a From the second paragraph of his book when he declares; "There was nothing in the new Constitution in regard to government by parties . . and then: "In some respects the constitution has prevented the normal development of party rule,” to the point where Is written: "The Federalist party did not decline because of what it had accomplished when in power, but because the 'rule or ruin’ element among its leaders was unable to understand the proper functions of a party out of power,” Professor Lynch shows a deep understanding of what is required of a. political party. Excellence of his work lies in the fact that, although curtailed for space, he manages to convey an accurate and living portrayal of Ihe political leaders between 1789 and 1837. a a a It is true that Lynch seems not to have discovered any new sources or heretofore unavailable data, but the very fact, that he has so well combined the information garnered by other researchers is to his credit. Lynch’s is at best a thankless job, because naturally his reading group is limited. Yet, "Fifty Years of Party Warfare” should appeal to every student, of American history whose acquaintance with the motives which caused certain national acts, such as the war of 1812, is limited to ordinary high school historical studies. • Called to Flying Corps By United Press BLOOMINGTON.
