The Loan Shark Bribery Charge.

1t is somewhat of a relief to pass from
the District committees inquisition into
local affairs to contemplate the dis
closures just made before the House
..Afuihalr' committee, which throw into
distinction the figures of members and
employees Of Congress accused Of being
pecuniarily interested in the defeat Of
local legislation. While the loan shark
bill. which is specifically mentioned in
these disclosures, was pending In Con-
gress there were whispers here Of In
fuences working to the end OF prevent
ing action. During the long period while
the bill was in conference without any
move toward report. the rumor was
current that improper agencies were in
strumental In stalling or a full meeting
OF the conferees and consequent action
on the measure. Now comes witness
who tells taller that II true clearly ex-
plain the long delay and justify the sus-
picion entertained last year while the
District was waiting for legislative re-
lief from the usurers. If this story Is
substantiated 1t calls for court procedure.
The matter should not end with a mere
committee hearing Here is q distinct
charge OF bribery committed to the end
of preventing the enactment OF a Dill
aimed against the business of extortins
illegal interest from poor borrowers. II
may be difficult to prove the case out
it is worth while going to the bottom OF
it as far as may be. The loan shark
law enacted after so long wait has
not proved wholly satisfactory and may
require amendment to make 1t funy ef-
fective to protect the small borrowers
Of this community from extortion. Inc
disclosures before the "Mulhai com
mittee may open the way for such add
tional legislation as may be found requi-
site Surely In the light OF these tales
OF corrupt dealings to prevent action on
the original measure there is no reason
to fear a blockade hereafter II amenda-
tory loan shark legislation is proposed.

1t is much to have, the, Endorsement Of

ii may not be equally serviceable in all

In Maryland there is complaint. Two
senatorial seats are in the scale in that
state. and. among the democratic aspi-
rants for one of them is Mr.. Marbury.
He is personal friend as well as politi-

claims to be the latter's choice for the

CT Mr.. Sackett directed "the events

speak as they pass by.

ground for controversy. Mr.. Wilson has
been credited with Mr.. Marines sue

himself for the Senate, complained Of

claim can be substantiated. The Jersey

ZONES. Who paid the Freight. y

The value Of trade aphorisn or catch
line is well recognized by all business
men. Some Of the most notable CONNER
cial successes have been due to the adofl-
ton of short phrases that have served to
attract attention In advertising and to
give distinctive quality in the public mind
TO particular lines OF goods. This truth
10 brought freshly to mind In connection
with the death at Binghamton, n. V, of
Gen. Edward +. Jones, once lieutenant
governor OF the state. a man with a nota-
bic career in war and politics, but perhaps
best known as the manufacturer Of scales
who paid the freight" Gen. Jones built
up an immense business which became
known throughout the country as a re-
suit of his constant proclamation that
Jones pays the freight This had the
merit Of simplicity and directness. There
was no mistaking it. To say that Jones
paid the freight was to assure customers
in terms that they could surely under
stand. This was just as effective as
some eccentric trade name In time Gen.
Jones political and commercial fame
blended and in his public affairs the catch
line that had made his business known
throughout the country served a useful
purpose to distinguish him from others
OF the large family of Joneses. Then,
again, Gen. Jones had another means Of
distinction in his rema rkable combination
OF side whiskers and mustache, hirsute
production that long stood without rival
ry in the empire state. But with all his
brilliant war record and his political sue
cess and his flowing facial adornment
Gen. Jones will pass into history chiefly
notable az the man who paid the
freight a fact not OF itself exceptional
in trade but made so by dint of constant
itera ton.
