Sir: Tripping up DR.. Sinner on his
"Ps" and ines" brings back to mind
the story DR.. McCosh, then the vener-
able president of Princeton, told in
the '90s in lecture to the students of
Ohio Wesleyan. He said his Presby-
terian conscience got to bothering him
one night and he got up to stroll
back his sleepy mood. Spying a light
in window Of dormitory at this
hour-2 a. m.--he became curious to
know what was keeping one of his
students up so late. On gaining the
door he was about to rap when he
caught the click of chips and several
low-pitched voices. GIVING a vigorous
knock which resulted in sudden con-
fusion Of sounds within a voice trem-
bingly said. "Who's there ?" cts me,
DR.. McCosh." the president replied
you're a liar" shot back the voice.
"If you were DR.. McCosh you'd have
said 1T is ~" "I folded up my tent
and silently stole away said the good
doctor, "for / considered the honored
name of Princeton for scholarship Of
vastly more Importance than the break
ing up of a friendly game Of poker"

Sir: Surely the finding Of life belt

pricking conscience at a time when
the shadow Of another war is menacing
the battlescarred fields of Europe to
remind your mighty country that now
is no time to condone the blackest and

October Ia, 1916, published in one of
his own newspapers the following:
"Our skirts are clean as regards the
activities of the German U-boats. Thew
have committed no crime against u.s."
Did not Mr.. Cox also cause to be
published an allusion to "the splendid
Germans" declare that the American
army was being sent to France for
sentimental reasons and state that the
best means Of aiding Germany would
be to reelect President Wilson?
Was it for this latter reason that

II Would at Least Prevent Boss
Nominations for Presidency

II Would at Least Prevent Boss
Nominations for Presidency
To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The arguments in the letter by
Professor Loomis, Of New York Univer-
sity, in The Tribune Of July 10, 1920, are
we'll taken, timely and to the point.
The article however, is somewhat pes-,
simistic, and it gives no remedy for
popular control of the convention. It.
is. indeed, an unfavorable criticism upon
the character and ingenuity of the
American posple, of whom Viscount
Bryce so aptly remarks in his introduc-
ton to "The American Commonwealth"
"What he (the European reader) proba-
bly, fails to do is to realize the exist,
ence in the American people of re-
serve of force and patriotism more than
sufficient to sweep away all the evils
which are now tolerated and to make
the politics Of the country worthy of it's
material grandeur and of the private
virtues Of it's inhabitants" There seems
to be no doubt in the minds of the
American people that at the present
time the President is not truly the
peoples choice. In this they are cor
rect. But is there, then, no remedy?
Ny plan is the legal regulation of the
convention in conjunction with the
direct primary of delegates to the con-
vention. Do away with the unit rule,
the two-thirds rule in the Democratic
convention and the ma jority rule in the
Republican. Nominate your candidates
at the convention by mere plurality
and by direct primary, force the dele
gates of both parties to pledge support
to one candidate and make The delegate
rubber stamp of the people rather
than rubber stamp of the boss. Then,
when the delegates vote at the conven-
tion, the man who gets the plurality is
really the peoples choice.
Let us take a practical example in
the present Presidential election. Who
was the logical candidate on the Repub-
lican ticket, who received the greatest
number of pledged delegates, who re-
ceived the plurality on the first ballot?
In all cases it was General Wood. The
conclusion is evident: Wood was the real
choice of the Republican voters and or
ganization. But Wood did not get the
nomination, because the majority rule
permitted bossed manipulation. The
same thing happened to McAdoo, the
logical Democratic candidate, but the
two-third rule permitted Messrs. Muir
ply, Taggart and Brennan to put
through minority candidate
/ sincerely believe that the simple ex-
pedient stated above would give the
people their true choice in the Presi-
Dental convention. Make the convention
simpler, prevent manipulation, and put
it as far as possible under popular
control
NEW YORK UNIVERSITY, '21.
New York, July 81, 1920.
New-York tribune., 1920-07-26
only Socialist chieftain whose quail
ties approached genius, yet even in
him Snnen Of realit,1 x,as u, isrs..x

only Socialist chieftain whose quail
ties approached genius, yet even in
him sense of reality was missing.
Apart from Liebknecht the Social
lists produced no leader and their
opponents have produced none. The
republic is carried on and defended
by mediocrities; it has been assailed
mostly by humbugs like Kapp. The
one asset of the republicans is the
greater weakness of the monarchists.
Has the outcome of the elections
changed this condition? A COR
respondent of "The London Times"
thinks it has. He asserts that the
victory of the Peoples Party is not
that of monarchist reaction, as
it is usually interpreted, but simply
of constructive big business, in the
good sense Of that much abused
word. The Peoples Party, the cor
respondent says, "seems to have
more executive ability and more
constructive imagination than all
other parties put together. They
certainly have plenty Of money and
brains. Germany is going to
develop into highly organized plu-
tocracy, possibly with certain
amount Of Socialist window dress
ing"
This is by no means an improb-
able forecast. The heads of German
industry and finance, as expressed
politically by the Peoples Party,
may do two great things for the
German people: They may relieve
it Of the distasteful duty of govern
ing itself. They may, if installed in
supreme power, revive production,
and thus restore the material condi-
tions of civilized life and progress.
For the former task they may be
as good as anybody else in sight; for
the latter they ought to be better.
A German government of big busi-
ness may be in occasional need of
being reminded, like Herr SHINES
at Spa, Of it's manners. If it be
Intelligent at all it cannot fail to
recognize that its only chance to
survive is to adapt the interests and
needs of the new Germany to her
place in the new Europe.
