Gov. Judson Harmon is the strongest
OF the Democratic candidates for the
Presidency. according 10 former Gov.
Henry NJ warield OF Maryland. in q
statement to-day calling on Maryland
Democrats to support the Ohio Governor.
'Tt was a great pleasure TO me when !
saw that Gov. Harmon's name would be
before our voters in the coming primaries
and that his campaign would be vigor-
ously, prosecuted In Maryland" said
Gen. warfieId. ITO my mind Harmon is
the man Of the hour. Not a reactionary
by any means, but conservatively pro-
gressive, which is the character OF man
We should select to represent us at the
head of our great country. To say that
Harmon Is not progressive is certainly
not borne out by his course In Ohio.
which has twice elected him its Governor,
where he has brought about in a pro-
gressively business way many advance
ments that have enhanced the confidence
in which he is held by the thinking peo-
pie Of the State.
81 consider him in every way equipped
for the position of President of the United
States and deem It privilege to vote for
him in the primaries. His chances for
carrying the States necessary for cleo
ton, 1 believe to be better than any
of the candidates mentioned. have had
the honor Of meeting Gov. Harmon and
he is a big, broad man in every sense,
who will inspire the confidence so neces-
sary in the man to occupy the highest
position in our gift"

URGES VOCATIONAL
TEACHING OR YOUTH
Clarence A. Cotton Addresses House
Committee in Favor Of
National System.

Pointing out the benefits 10 be gained
BY establishing a national system for
educating the children OF the country in
industrial occupations and citizenship,
Clarence A. Cotton, secretary OF the
Dubuque Industrial Corporation. Of Du-
buque, Iowa, was granted q hearing yes
terday before the House Committee on
Agriculture, on the Page-Wilson bill,
which provides for an appropriation Of
81 100000 yearly for period OF three
years for the organization and establish
ment Of a system Of Industrial and voca-
tional education for the youth Of the
country.
Mr.. Cotton, who had a large part IN
the establishment OF Junior commercial
clubs in Dubuque, Iowa, and Grand
Rapids, Mich, told the committee Of the
results Of the campaign for the technical
education OF the youth of those cities
In a manner similar to that proposed by
the Page-wilson bill.
Mr.. Cotton stated that the membership
Of the Junior organization in Dubuque
was first open exclusively TO the sons
of members of the Dubuque Board Of
Trade, but that later the membership
was extended. Under the leadership Of
a committee Of men. the boys make
weekly trips to factories. mills, and like
establishments in the vicinity of Du-
buque, and see at FIRST hand how articles
are wrought from the crude material into
finished products.
The object Of the association Is to
assist the boys In the choice OF a yoca-
ton, to engehder in them high ideals
Of citizenship, and to teach them the
rudimSnts OF organization, the boys con-
Quoting their own club. and electing

WOULD AMEND PATENT LAWS.
II. Ward Leonard Favors Change to
Avoid "Patent Monopoly"

Asserting that the patent system was
designed primarily for the nation and
not for the inventor, H Ward Leonard.
chairman Of the board OF managers Of
the Inventors Guild. Of New York. and
an associate for many years of Thomas
Edison. was q witness yesterday before
the House Committee on Patents. The
committee is considering bills to amend
the patent laws so as TO nullify the
patent monopoly recently legalized by
the Supreme Court in the Dick mimeo-
graph case.
II the opinion I'm the Dick case Is to
be construed broadly. Mr.. Leonard said
yesterday the law ought to be amended
so that the owner of a patent may not
dictate the resale price.
THE resale question has not affected
me-" he said. "but 1 can see the dan
ger to the public which exists II the
larger corporations, which are now
closely connected, should combine their
patent interests. They could control
over 1900 patents and under the Dick
decision. broadly interpreted. could con-
troll every condition OF the ultimate
sale %

NAVIGATION LAWS INADEQUATE
Hay Points Out InsumcIency of Ex-
iatinE ReguIatIons.

The fact that the existing navigation
laws are entirely inadequate TO provide
for the safety Of human life on the high
seas, is brought out strongly by facts
gathered by Representative James Hay
OF Virginia, in support OF his bill pro-
viding $4,000 to equip all army trans
ports with enough lifebosts to carry the
entire crew and troops aboard.
=. was much surprised by the show
ing made" said Representative Hay
yesterday. Take the transport Thomas,
for instance; this vessel carries sixteen
lifeboats and twelve RATS. The capacity
of them in cubic feet Is 1O,2S9 Existing
navigation laws require a capacity OF
only 4.S20 cubic feet. The Thomas Is
two and, half times as well equipped.
in other words, as the law requires, and
yet her boats and RATS will carry only
LUIS men, while she carries 90 men in
crew, troops and officers.
The Argument that soldiers are paid
10 take risks has nothing in it. The
purpose, of the transport Is 20 get men
10 certain points. They are no more
paid to take risks IN getting there on
boats inadequatsly equipped with life
boats than they are paid to start TO
sea in a leaky boat"
