Majority Voted Against Meas

WASHINGTON Sept. Realizing
the country and the world now look
upon the federal reserve act, passed
by Democratic congress and signed by
n Democratic president. as the greatest
piece Of fiscal legislation ever enacted
in any country, Republican politicians
are attempting to fool the public into
believing that the Republican party had
something to do with it's enactment.
Statements emanating from Republi-
can headquarters make the claim that
the foundation of the federal reserve
act 'is found In the report of a mone-
tary commission" appointed by Presi-
dent Taft, and that il is really the
child" of the old Aldrich- Vreeland
currency law.
why should the Democrats accuse
the Republican party of desire to
throttle its own child ?"sthe Republicans
ask.
Strange that this relationship was
not recognized by Republican mem
bers of congress when the act came
up for final passage. On the final
vote in the senate, A Democrats and
only seven Republicans voted for the
federal reserve bill. and "a Republicans
and no Democrats voted against 1t.

Republicans voted AYE" while IS Re-

NEXT PRESIDENT IS
MOTOR ENTHUSIAST

The motorlst does not have to worry
over the possible results OF the national
eleotion--either way 1t goes we shall
have a president who speaks the auto
mobile language and who parts his hair
the same way you and l do, says an
editorial in the current issue of Motor
Life Magazine.
Both Warren G. Harding and James
M, Cox can be classed as motorists
in the broadcast sense of the word.
They are not motor passengers, but
men who like to drive their own cars
whenever opportunity affords the
chance. They love the call of the open
road, the thrill of holding the steering
wheel at speed, the lure of long trips
and the adventure of motor life. De-
spite their prominence in national life,
we can even picture them changing a
tire or working on the engine IL occa
sion demanded.
Senator Harding demonstrated his
fondness for motoring in a most SEN
sational manner Immediately following
his nomination by buying a new car,
and with Mrs. Harding driving over the
road from Washington to his home
town. Marion, o., a three-day journey.
Gov. Coolidge, his running mate, also
slipped away on a motor trip to his
birthplace, while Gov. Cox motored
from Dayton to the old farm for days
relaxation.
All Of which is a good sign, we motor
lists think. We feel that the next &C.
