.JUDGE CHAMBERLIN SEEKS RE-ELECTION

Circuit Court Jurist Will Make No Campaign, He Announces. Judge Harry O. Chamberlin today announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for judge of the circuit court. His action was prompted by the presentation of a petition Tuesday signed by 100 prominent Republican attorneys soliciting his candidacy. in order “that the high standard of the court be maintained.” Upon the issuance of his announcement, Chamberlin, who has presided over the circuit court here since Aug. 1. 1920, when appointed by Governor James P. Goodrich, said he will make no speeches or pre-primary solicitation of votes, but merely will base his candidacy upon his record. “When I complete my second full term as judge of the Marion circuit court at the end of this year, I will have served more than twelve years in that capacity,” he said. “Not wishing to bear even the appearance of an effort to perpetuate myself in this position, and realizing that there are many lawyers at this bar who would make capable and satisfactory judges,- I had not expected to become a canJidate for a third nomination.” He was G. O. P. election commissioner in 1914 and 1918, but during the war served as a captain in the chemical warfare service of the army. 200 TO~ATTEND~pTn NER Program Is Arranged for Annual Safety Meeting.

COOLIDGE CALLS FOR ORGANIZED ECONOMY FIGHT Workers, Business Men Are Urged to Compel Lower Governmental Costs. By United Prts PHILADELPHIA, March 22. criticism of governmental extravagance and a suggestion that wageearners and business men organize solidly against it are offered by Calvin Coolidge in an article entitled “Debts and Taxes,” in the current Saturday Evening Post. “Scarcely any one questions the necessity of some increase of tax rates and the imposition of new taxes by the national government to pay the present deficit,” he wrote. “But it seems apparent that such remedy ought only to be for the existing emergency that must be met to protect the public credit. “The nation has the resources to provide for such action, and they must be used. But the only permanent remedy, the only relief for high taxes, is a reduction of public expenditures. Such a reduction must be made.

Urges Non-Partisan Fight | “The local governments, on the ! whole, have been the worst offenders and find themselves in the most | serious difficulties. Nothing but drastic detrenchment will restore | them to financal health. “The only remedy for the situation in which we find ourselves is jan aroused public opinion. High j expenses have created great debts ! and heavy taxes. The disaster these have brought is felt most keenly by the wage earners, but the source of the evil is most apparent to our business interests. “The time has come for a combination, on a nonpartisan basis, of wage earners and business men for their mutual protection. They need to be organized, alert and vocal. Then the congress and other bodies will listen because they will feel they have some support in re- | sisting further expenditures and some encouragement in pursuing a policy of retrenchment.” Soak-the-Rich Policy Hit Coolidge branded as economically unsound the “soak-the-rich” slogan of some political demagogues. In the first place, Coolidge pointi ed out, there are not enough sufI ficiently rich people in the United States to contribute enough from their incomes to meet a deficit of $2,000,000,000, and even though it •! might be possible? 1 and legal to confiscate under the taxing powers, the situation would not be remedied because the rich could be taxed I only once. One tax would exhaust its source.”

OKLAHOMA OIL LAW GETS TEST Act 'nvoked by Murray Is Argued in Supreme Court. By United Pre* WASHINGTON. March 23—Oklahoma's oil curtailment law. which Governor “Alfalfa Bill" Murray enforced by calling out the state militia, came before the supreme court for argument today. Murray’s military activities are not involved in the case, but the validity of the Oklahoma law is a key question, affecting the whole effort to pro-ration oil production in western states. The test case attacking the act's validity was brought by the Champlin Refining Company, an independent producer with a refinery in Enid, extensive pipelines and distributing systems, and wells in both Oklahoma City and Seminoie fields. The action is directed against the Oklahoma corporation commission, the body authorized to carry out the act. It was pased in 1915 but no effort was made to proceed under it as a conservation measure until the heavy production of 1927 threatened to demoralize oil prices.
