JIMMY WORKS FAST
ON OPENING SPEECH
CONSIDERABLE PROGRESS MADE
ON ACCEPTANCE ADDRESS.
Says Western People Seem to Real
ize That Governor Cox is One
of Them"

Dayton, Ohio, July 26.-Governor
Cox made considerable progress to-
day on his address for August : ac-
cepting the Democratic presidential
nomination. The governor found,
however, that he was unable to carry
out his plan for "locking' himself in
his library to work on the speech,
but between several visitors the can
didate put in some good licks in
drafting his address.
The address, the governor said,
will be "just long enough to tell the
story" but because Of it's embryonic
stage he could make no definite pre-
dictions as to length He is to send
it in installments, as subjects are
completed, to his newspaper office
here for composition and, then ne
promised ''to use the blue pencil Wig
orously" on proofs to eliminate every
unnecessary word. Between shifts
on his address the governor today
conferred with Judge J. G. Johnson
Of the Ohio supreme court, who made
the Cox nominating speech at the San
Francisco convention. 1t was theil
first meeting since the convention
and Governor Cox thanked the judge
for the successful outcome of his eff
forts.
Refer to Him as Jimmy
|The Western people seem to real
ize that Governor Cox is one of them
in their ideals and aspirations,' said
Judge Johnson, who toured the West
en- route to his home at Springfield
"Theyr believe Governor Cox is for
the people. They refer to him as

called Teddy 1t indicates feeling

LUDENDoRFF WARNS CIVILIZED
WORLD AGAINST BoLSHEyISM
Victory Over Poland Will Result in
Monster" Sweeping All Europe
and Eventually Entire World.

Washington, July 27.-Victory for
Soviet Russia over Poland would re-
suit in Bolshevism sweeping all Of
Europe and eventually the entire
world in the opinion of Gen. Eric
Ludendorf, the famous German war
leader. His views are set forth in
specially. prepared and hitherto. un-
published memorandum on the "Dan-
gers Of Bolshevism," written last
month and received here today in Of
fetal circles.
J. "Polands fall will entail the fall
Of Germany and Czecho-Slovakia,' -
Gen. Ludendorf. says. "Their neigh
bors to the north and south will 9ol-
low. Fate steps along steadily. Let
no one believe it will come to stand
still without enveloping Italy, France
and England in its coils. Not even
the seven seas can stop it." -
Addressing himself to the "civil-
| lied nations as man who knows
war;" Gen. Ludendorf pleads that
his message not fall on deaf ears.
AThen it will be too late,' he de-
clares,. and the present civilization
will crumble as did that Of Greece
| and Rome. And the cause will be
the obtuseness of government and
the lethargy of the burgeoise, as the
! latter always and everywhere liked to
stay quietly at home en days OF de-
cisive events.
"Bolshevisni is a monster that
must advance to exist. 1t is advanc-
| ing now and in a gradual progress
from East. to West and is crushing
everything between the Mediterran-
can sea and the Atlantic ocean.
"The world at large must, there
fore, figure with Bolshevist ad-
vance in Poland towards Prague. The
time will come. when the Bolshevists
will menace Germany and Czecho-
Slovakia directly.
I described the impending menace
] of Bolshevism in my interview with
the press early in February. My
warnings were cry in the wilder
ness. These menaces are now real
ity. Lenine has advanced his lines to
the frontiers of China, Afghanistan.
Persia and India and is now prepar-
ing to continue his victorious prog
ress.
"The prodigious combative re-
sources of Bolshevist propaganda
tackled both it's far-fung fronts long
ago with perfect logic.
"Poland and Roumania are under
mined. The Bolshevist propaganda
operates with more caution in Fin
land, Sweden and Norway; these
countries expect to drop in the Lap
OF Bolshevism without noticeable ef-
fort. The great objectives Of the
jBolshevists are now in Germany and
perhaps Czecho-Slovakia and Aus
| tria." 81.

THAT BROAD RIVER BRIDGE.
Mr.. Suber Seems to Think the Editor
Does Not Know Much About
Bridge Building.
tor The Herald and News:

Editor The Herald and News:
/ note that you say the bridge
across Broad river should be built
where it would serve the greater
number Of people. This is right and
exactly what we want, But then you
90 on and say it should not be the
purpose to build the bridge where it
can be built for the least money and
where the approaches to the river
are the best. Allow me to say that
in this you are lacking in the practl-
cal part. If the banks are not con-
sidered for the approaches and they
put on low land when the river is up
no one can get to the approaches and
the water would soon wash them (the
approaches away and bridge with
out approaches would be no more
good to the people than superln-
tendent of education would be with
out schools or teachers. I am sure
YOU would make a good superinten-
dent of education, perhaps one OF the
best, but I am equally sure now that
you would make a mighty poor bridge
builder. You made me say in my
letter that the people Of Fairfield
could cross the river at Shelton and
reach the Columbia road within a
mile. said they could cross at
strother and reach it within a mile.
No not Shelton. For no one can
hardly get to Shelton nor away from
there at any distance and some are
talking of putting the bridge at
Blairs. Impractieable, for there is
half mile Of sand bar there 40 feet
deep and long pond between the
hill and river that was once said to
have no bottom. Anyway we want
the bridge in or near the centre OF
the two counties. It can not be built
below Strother on account of the
back water from Parr Shoals dam:
Therefore Strother is nearest center
point and Strother is the idsal place.
It has all the advantages.

SOME STATES MAY
LOSE In CONGRESS
RESULTS OF CENSUS MAY CUT
REPRESENTATIVES.
Unless Membership of House Is In
created Ten States May Lose One
or More Representatives.

Washington, July 28.-Unless the
membership of the house is lncreas-
ed from 435 to at least 500 to meet
the increased population shown by
the 1920 census, 10 states Will lose
one or more representatives, accord
inc to Representative Siegel OF New
York. chairman of the census COM
mittee which will frame the new ap-
portionment bill. Those states are:
Indiana, Iowa, and Missouri, when
will lose two congressman each; and
Illinois, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland
Nebraska, Vermont and Virginia.
which will lose one congressman
each. ,
Mr.. Siegel explains that if the
house membership is retained at its
Nesent figure it will be necessary -
increase the population basis IN each
congressional district beyond the
211.OOO or major portion thereof
now fixed. If this is done, he says,
the 10 states named will lose one or
n,,ore of the present districts be-
cause their populations have not IN
creased in proportion to those of 9TH
er states.
On the basis of the estimated pop
ulation of 1O6,O00,000 for the whole
country in 1920, an increase of ap-
proxinately 14,000,000 in 10 years,
Mr.. Siegel says 65 or 66 new seats IN
the house must be created if the lO
states are to retain their present nu-
merical representation. While pre-
cdent warrants the increase, Mr.. Sle-
gel declares there is strong opposl-
ton to it on the part of some OF the
present representatives, while others
favor reduction to as few as 5UU
members. $50.
Mr.. Siegel expects the work OF
framing the new apportionment bill
in accord with the new population to
begin with the reeonvening Of con-
gress in December and he anticipates
that the measure will be passed ear
ly in 1921. -;
single exception Of 1910, the house
membership hiss been enlarged to
keep pace with the growing popula-
ton. Now the house, floor is crowd
ed when all members are present; !;
seats nearly fill the chamber; the old
individual desks have been discarded
and an increase in membership prob
ABLY will have. to be solved by, mar
rowing the width Of the seats.
Ten years ago the house member
ship. was increased from 3e1 to "a dy9
on the. basis of population: OF -9i,-
972,26S and. the only exception to
such a procedure occurred in l84o
when 10 congressman were knocked
out by the appertionment, the mem
tbership being fixed at 2s2 after ,hav-
ing been 242 for 10 years.
The last apportionment kept intact
the numerical strength OF all state
delegations besides providing Tor
certain increases, but even then sew
eral congressional districts fell short
of the maximum basis of :211,1oo
population.
