To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Whereas, every man and woman,
IN the United States deserves a living
wage, and whereas, every strike
that takes place represents a distinct
soss to the owner of property and bur-
den and hardship to the workers them
selves; be it resolved, that strikes
should be made a crime and unlawful;
that a minimum wage be established; !;
that commission be created to de-
terminc the extra compensation to be
granted skilled labor
Whereas, education is a matter Of
vital national Importance and not a
matter for local or state interpreta-
tlon. be it resolved, that the United
States of America assume control and
ownership of all means of education
within the United States, operating and
directing the public schools to COM
mon end, that each citizen and future
citizen may be educated to usefulness,
to possession of national pride and to
realization of true Americanism.

To-Day's Prize Letter

To ths Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: A subject which has been
mentioned by several writer's. but
which has not received serious con-
sideration, is that members Of the
Cabinet should have a voice in Con-
gress. BY this l mean they should
be allowed to present departmental
legislation and to participate in de-
bate in both houses, without the pow-
er to vote. The present system ad.
mittedly Is unsatisfactory. Its de-
fects are: 1t does not fix RESPONSE
bility; 1t offers no necessity for, nor
guarantee Of, good men in these Of
fees, and it prevents absolutely any
cooperation between Congress and the
Cabinet. The question is: Would
this proposed arrangement lead to
a practical solution?
Fixing Of responsibility would be an
Immediate effect of this plan. Each
secretary would be accountable for
a statement to Congress, and thus
through the papers to the people. Of
New-York tribune., 1920-03-02

wise choice, they lose the confidence
Of the voters.
The final point, that Of cooperation,
is at once the most evident and the
most important argument for this
plan. No time would be lost in wait
ing for d committee to take the initia-
tive. Congress would know at once,
by word Of mouth, what was vital and
necessary. It would not be dependent
On roundabout channels for informa-
ton; it would have direct advice
from the secretary himself. Delay
would be ended, misunderstanding
eliminated, the affairs Of the execu-
tive departments would receive in
telligent and prompt attention.
1t remains only to show that this
plan may be put into effect. 1t is
constitutonally secure. Tho only
prohibition in that document is
against Cabinet members voting.

recommendations and given his opin-
ions 1t would rest clearly with Con-
gress to accept or reject the pro-
posed legislation. In this way, each
party to the action would have his
definite duty to perform; and, what
is more, the public would have first
hand knowledge Of his performance
Of that duty.
Having thus brought the position
of secretary into the public eye,
1t naturally would follow that more
care would be taken in the choice

He Voted for Lincoln;
Urges Loyalty as Plank
Principles Enunciated in 1860,
He Says, Are Ones Needed
to Guide Nation To-day

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The writer cast his first Presi-
Dental vote for Abraham Lincoln in
1850 He has tried to be true to the prin-
ciples laid down by that great states
man Nor the government of the United
States. While the questions Of the
present are very different from the
questions that were before the people
at that time, yet the same ideals and
principles of government which were
then formulated are just as essential
at this time as they were then.
The first resolution should be that
the Republican party is devoted to the
government, that is, "of the people, for
the people, and by the people," and
that it "shall not perish from the EARTH"
There can be no true democracy with
out that basic principle.
Another principle which should be
platform is Sir William Gladstone's
formulation of the Golden Rule: "God
has SO intimately connected, SO insep-
arably interviewer, the laws of eternal
Justice with the happiness Of each in
dividual that the latter cannot be at
tanned but by observing the former;
and if the former be punctually obeyed
it cannot but induce the latter, and
that man should be free to pursue his
own true and substantial happiness"
The great principles which were
enunciated by Republicans in Lincoln s
day. declaring for a sound and stable
currency, are as great to-day aS0then.
And the economic principle of protec-
ton, one of the successful measures
which has made the South as we'll as
the North prosperous and happy, will
be true guide in these times.

70 the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The history of the United States,
and particularly that of recent years,
would seem to indicate the advisability
Of somewhat remodeling our system Of
Federal government to provide for a
nearer approach to responsible Cabi-
net type OF executive control. would
offer the following specific proposals
for amendments to our Constitution to
the trainers Of the platform of the
Republican party:
l. The President shall choose the
heads of the executive departments OF
the Federal government from among
the members of the Congress, one-half
from the Senate and one-haf from tho
House OF Representatives.
2. The heads of the executive de-
partments, together with tho President
and Vice President, shall compose the
of this Cabinet shall be held at in
tervals designated by statute, and at
such other times as the President, or
the acting head of the Cabinet in his
absence or disability; may designate.
5. 1t shall be the duty of the Cabi-
net to report to the Congress the facts
in case of the inability of the Presi-
dent or the Vice-P President, or both, to
perform the functions of their respec-
tive Offices.
4. The members Of the Cabinet
chosen from the Congress shall retain
their seats in their respective houses
Of Congress and shall perform the
duties and retain the privileges of
members Of Congress.
S. The President. or the Acting
President may at any time. without as
signing cause, request the resignation
OF member of the Cabinet (other
than the NicePres dent) and may ap-
point another member of the Congress
In his place.
6. 1t shall be the duty of the Presi-
dent, with the advice and assistance
of the Cabinet, to present to the Con-
gress q detailed estimate of the ex-
pected revenues and the proposed ap-
preparations of the Federal government
for the ensuing fiscal year.
Z. The basis of representation in
the House OF Representatives shall be
SO arranged that the total number of
Representatives shall not exceed twice
the total number of United States Sem
ators. but no state shall be deprived
Of representation in the House of Rep
resentatives.

is due only to the lack Of public
opinion on the matter.

case, the voters should be urged to

Give Labor Share of Profits

As the laboring class is the back
bone Of the nation, so labor is the
root of capital. This statement is
automatic. Capital is the outcome
of labor; the two are interdependent,,
hence a partnership. Partners of cor
porations are it's stockholders; all
stockholders are partners because
they share the profits of capital.
Labor, capitals true partner, should
share the gains proportionately in
unissued stock of the concern whose
capital il algments. There being no
unissued stock, additional shares
could be ISSUED, based on the en-
ployees' labor. thus making them
partners, and participants of profit
as we'll as Of labor. A. J..

See Why Essex Made
a Worlds Sales Record

Few care to extend the Essex TO top

less speed is yours when wanted. J
Moreover, Essex power means acceiera-
ton. 1t gives Essex right Of way every
where. 1t means that every performance
is met at half effort-th,as accounting for itn
long life.
These are reasons .ny In It's first year
Essex set new worlds sales record with
more than $35,000,0O0 paid for more than
$4,000 cars, III its first year.
This year it will be even more difficult to
supply the Essex demand. Thousands
waited last spring. Many were disappointed.
Yet at that time Essex had not given the
conclusive proofs Of endurance, it now
holds. You will avoid having to wait BY
making your reservation now.

In Performance as I'm Stvle
Essex Truly Leads
It's 50ours at Top Speed Endurance Mark is Unmatched
But That is Proof of Only One of the Fine Car Qualities
ESSEX Brings to the Light Car Field

Thousands at first bought the Essex,
knowing nothing Of its greatest quality.
Perhaps no one expected great endurance in
a light car. Perhaps it's dynamic perform
ance appeal swept aside the natural caution
buyers feel about the durability of any new
car.
More speed they found. More power
quicker acceleration - finer hill climbing
ability, and such riding ease as they had
never known in light car.
These things the Essex established
quickly. A ride was sufficient It left no
vestige Of comparison with former light car
performance standards.
Such attractions were irresistible to those
who knew former light car limitations.
But only time or abnormal1y abusive
tests can prove car endurance.

It Wor, on Endurance
Minus Useless Weight

Now Essex has met these require
ments. Not only have more than %, 900
owners proved its dependable, punctual re-
liability and freedom from repair and re-
placement needs. Essex has set a new
world endurance mark of 3O37 miles in so
hours. 1t is the only official test ever made
Of stock car, driven at top speed for so
hours. Counting other tests, the same Essex
stock chassis travelled 5870 miles in "a
hours, % minutes, actual driving time,
New-York tribune., 1920-03-02

averaging more than mile a minute. Of
hcials Of the American Automobile Asso-
clation supervised the test and certified the
stock character of the Essex chassis in
every particular.
And another Essex stock touring car set
world 24-hour road mark of 1861 miles,
over snow-bound Iowa roads. Not single
adjustment Or tire change was made.
Ssrely such endurance proofs must re-
double the value of Essex in the eyes of all.
1t proves Essex car you can buy to
keep. It means the day is past when one
need look only to large, costly cars for dis
tlncton IN power, speed, reliability and
comfort. 1t means the retention through
years of those wanted car qualities of per
tofmance and uninterrupted operation, even
after hardest service.
The Essex requires little attention. The
longer your acquaintance with it, the
greater will be your esteem. Every sense
of pride and satisfaction that comes with
the possession of fine car performance and
quality that yields to none, is yours with
