County Clerk William + Schneider

yesterday suggesting that IL Charles F
Murphy would follow the example OF Will
lam Barnes, Jr.. and retire from political
leadership his act would mean 100 900
additional votes for the Democratic can

of Barnes as an issue has brought about
a subs tantial union between the Progress
sive and Republican parties and that in
most Of the Harlem districts there has
been an agreement on candidates for Con-
gress the Senate and the Assembly.
Not until Murphy steps aside. either
voluntarily Or under the coercion of the
undoubted sentiment Of his party, will

prove suicidal" for the party because his

X. W. BabsOn.

Roger W. Babson, the well known

Kaiser has yet to make his most effective
diplomatic move in his contest with the
allies
When he Was In Europe last year en-
deavo-ing 10 organize an internationl

by what he considered the weakness OF
inost OF the rulers. They perform few
functions, II any. he says. but enjoy
grea, privilege which they are In con-

countries the royal families and their
'1lrts yet have tremendous privileges
which they would not have under a re-
publican form Of government.
IN tho case of nations like Russia ana
