Every man and woman over
twenty years old ought to try to

Boston. Oct. S.--Edward Filene,
former shipping commissioner, re-

today his observations during four
months tour of the war-riddcn coun-
tries of Europe except Russia. In
all, with the exception Of England,
he found conditions which could be

States should take part.
France, he found. torn by conflict

indemnity which she needs and a fear
lest in permitting Germany to gain
the economic power necessary TO pay
the indemnity she would create u
rival who would later crush her.
In Germany, Mr.. Filenc said, there
was general agreement chat until
the indemnity was fixed no real
progress toward German industrial
reconstruction could be made"
lie quoted Herr Boyer, the Prus-
sian secretary Of state fand an un-
named important official connected

expressing the belief France was de
liberatcly trying to make it impos-
sibe for Germany to recuperate."
Reporting on study of industrial
and labor conditions which he made

Affected BY THE

Choosing of Harding Means
Senate Oligarchy Will
Control Appointees of
High Judiciary Body

Paducah, Ky. Oct. EFFECT of the
presidential contest upon prospective
United States supreme court vacancies
was declared by Governor Cox in an
address here today. TO he "the real
danger Of n reactionary victory" next
TO the scrapping of the league of ma
tons"
The Democratic presidential candi-
date stated that at least four vacan-
cies on the high court were in pros
pect, and. referring to the senate's
control over combinations and Sena-
tor Harding as the "reactlonary can
didatc," he added.
1T would naturally follow tina a
reactionary president wuld appint
appoint four reactionary members Of
tho supreme court" The governor de-
ciared this was one of the reasons
why ''the senatorial oligarchy," should
bet defeated ''There are several rea-
sons why the senate oligarchy should
lnot be permitted TO win this election, ,"
he said. Throughout the years the
senate has trespassed on the authority
of the house Of representatives. The
Constitution provides that all legis-
lation providing for the raising of
revenues shall be initiated In the
house. Yet there has probably not been
tariff measure in the last fifty years
which was not changed In its every
line after the enacting clause once it
reached the senate. The nomination

dency, it affords the opportunity Of
anneXing the executive department. If
the senatorial ring would win the cleo
tion | naddition TO controlling the
president. 1t also possesses the con-
stitutional right OF confirmation Of
members Of the supreme court ap-
pointed by the president. Four men,
bers Of the court being now eligible
for retirement, there win beyond doubt
be at least four vacancies in this
court within the next four years.
at will be seen at a glance that the
senatorial crowd is playing for big
stakes, which are no more or less
than absolute control of three con-
dtional branches OF our government.
president of the United States will
appoint anyone that he deems un-
worthy of a place on the highest court
in the land, but we must be reminded
that the senatorial nominee for the
presidency has confirmed his faith
many times in the theory of plural
government, which means that he will
not only confer with the group around
/ him, but that this same group has
| the constitutional right TO apply its
check if the president should show any
signs OF independence. Besides, II
would naturally follow that a reac.
tionary president would appoint -four
reactlonary members OF the supreme
court. This would bind the country
