Seek Olympic Games
For America in 1924

Philadelphia has inaugarated her
campaign for money with which to
build n stadium equipped 10 accom-
MEDIATE the Olympic games In 1924,
and before many months. st. LOUIS
Chicago, San Francisco and Boston
will have instituted similar cam
paigns, almost assuring this country
OF the great athletic meet In four
years hence.
Aside from the fact that the move
rnent for stadiums indicates n great
revival Of interest In athNtic games
Il would seem that at last the great
carnival OF athletic competition mas
reached that point In the estimation
OF Americans to which it's originators
Inspired some years ago.
There In apparently no order I"
system In the matter OF providing
place for the proposed Olympic meet
in 1924 in this country. 1t Is case
of first come first served. with civic
pride swaying the pendulum almost
as much as the desire for the landing
OF the meet.
In Philadelphia every organization
Of almost every kind is behind the
project. Athletic officials, OF course,
are blazing. the trail in the campaign,
but they are finding plenty of en-
thusiasn among secret and fraternal
organizations, automobile and cycle
clubs of various kinds, to say nothing
of promised assistance from purely
social bodies.
Sammual Dallas. president OF the
Amateur Athletic Union. who is tax
ing an active part in the Philadei-
phia campaign, declared there was
no need for an understanding be-
tween the cities engaged in a race for
the next Olympic meet. because II
all the cities interested succeeded in
building stadiums, they would be OF
use to the athletes. even tho they
were never used for Olympic games.
He takes the attitude that every
community, large or small, should
have an athletic stadium. Mr.. Dallas
pointed to the fact that with i'm
mense stadiums in Philadelphia. Chi
cago, Boston and San Francisco. this
country could hold annual athletic
meets that would lay the foundation
OF lasting supremacy in the various
games for Uncle Sans land. The
main idea seems TO be to provide
stadiums capable OF seating approx
mately $4,000 people.

EMERY,s ELECTION LAW.

tine statement of G.. S. Emery of
Newport candidate for the Republican
nomination for governor, that he in
troduced and advocated the passage of
. corrupt practices act in 1902 shows
that he possesses courageous convic-
tons. But in the enforcement of that
law in political contests he evades re-
sponsihlity He denies he ever said
that "This act makes it a crime for
candidates to employ political adver-
Using" and declares that is ques
ton for the courts to decide. He also
SAYS: "Neither do l expect to invoke
the provisions of the act in question
to prevent any of my opponents from
spending their thousands in this cam
paign, il they so DESIRE While re-
sponsiblc for the enactment of the law
in question, Mr. Emery evidently is un,
willing to insist upon its enforcement
provisions. Refusal to enforce a law Is
admission that it is either undesirable
or defective.
Mr. Emery makes it clear that he
does not consider a reasonable amount
of political advertising Objectionable
when he says: cit is undeniable thai
reasonable amount of publicity

not only proper, but is desirable. = I'm
limited advertising, however, would
give an unfair advantage to wealthy
candidate. The public generally vii
agree with Mr. Emery on this point.
That the law is not as effective a
it should be is admitted by Mr.. Emer.
when he says it is his purpose, . i

actment of law limiting campaign

clecting him governor on that scor

HOUSTON OPPOSES

Thinks Government Should Pay Run.

New Schemes for Spending.

I WASHINGTON, May 20.-When Re
publican members of the house went into
caucus last night on soldier relief legis-
lation, Chairman Fordney of the ways
and means committee laid before them
letter from Secretary Houtson fatty OPP
posing any bonus proposal in whatever
manner financed.
Secretary Houston's letter, which re-
| suited from an inquiry by Chairman Ford
ney as to the treasury's views on the
''lnsurgent' epublican-Democratic pro-

profits tax, declared that congress instead

should concentrate its efforts on raising

Il beg to submit to your committee for
lits serious consideration the treasury
secretary wrote, ''the question whether,
all things considered, it would not now
be advisable to seek out additional sources
of revenue to meet the current require
ments of the government in order to OBJ
viate the necessity of continuing in con-
siderable measure to meet them by Dor
rowing"
Mr. Houston said it was a matter OF
serious concern to have the government
appear in the market every few months
for loans, as this course would result in
additional credit expansion with higher
prices and more difficult situation.
Discussing the alternative of bono
issue-increased taxes-Secretary Houston
said

OF extraordinary interest, not only to
lovers of the motion picture, but like
wise to all who appreciate the highest Ia

that it has secured David Wark Grifiith's
superb screen creation, Broken Bios

corded reception comparable to the tri
umph that has followed every showing
of this production. Newspapers have de-
voted column after column to its beau

cess has been instantaneous and it is
safe to say that in bringing Broken

of the Latchis Theatre has to its credit
