effect the consummation of such views
outside the party and that our duty IS
to endeavor to bring them to realization
within the party organization itself as
the issues on which they bear.
1.-THE tendencies of the party will gain
their meaning only from actual admin
istration.
UNITY OF ACTION
HELD SAFEGUARD.
II am convinced that unity of action
between the liberals Of the party,
especially IL they exert themselves in
the current of congressional elections,
will insure the country against legisla-
tive reaction.
IF the republican party is not to be
irrevocably split, ! can not conceive that
Senator Harding will for one moment
submit the administrative side of the
government to the domination Of any
group or coterie.
Furthermore, we have the possibility
Of having measures and policies deter
mined by full cabinet responsibility and
of having cooperation restored with
the legislative side of the government
For all these reasons l believe that
those of us who look upon party organ
ization, not from the point OF view OF
partisanship, but solely from the poini
of view of its usefulness as an agency
| of maximum service to the country should
support the republican party at thu
polls"

HOOVER ENDORSES
G. @. p. LEADERS
Platform, Too, With Some
Reservations.

WASHINGTON, June 1s.-Herbert
Hoover today threw his support sOlidly
behind Senator Warren G. Harding and
called on all shades of the republican
party to support the presidential
nominee.
Hoover announced his support OF the
republican ticket after breakfasting with
Harding at the latter's invitation.
! Hoover's letter Endorsed the republican
platform, with some reservations.
Hoover also declared against third
party which 1t Is understood many ele-
ments dissatisfied with both old par
ties wanted him to lead.
! Hoover reiterated previous statements
of Senator Harding that Harding would
Issue no statement of policies until after
the democratic convention.
"I need not reiterate my conviction that
the constructive ability critically
needed for the vigorous business reor-
ganization of the federal government and
TO meet the many economic issues before
us lies in the republican party" Hoover
declared.

ANSWER TO QUERIES.
In response TO inquiries, Hoover said

pendent and progressive republicans like
myself are disappointed over some ten

IF there was to have been unity in

XTRA SESSION
MAY RIDE UNDER
ESCHBACH WHIP
Speakership Contest Is Loom
ing Up in Legislature
Preliminaries.
SPECIAL BILLS ON, LIST

Jesse Eschbach, chief examiner of the
state board of accounts. may act as
speaker Of the house Of representatives
during the proposed special session Of
the legislature If the party caucus,
which will be held before the assembly
convenes, asks him to do so, but he will
not seek the position. he indicated today.
Mr. Eschbach was speaker of the house
at the last regular session and when the
special session was called for the pur-
pose of ratifying the federal suffrage
amendment he acted as speaker despite
tie fact It was the general opinion that
~ ceased to be a member of the house
when he became head Of the board Of ac-
counts.
Mr. Eschbach's action at that time
was not questioned, but there appears to
be serious doubt in the minds OF party
leaders as to whether he can act as
Speaker Of the house at the proposed
extra session without invoking the OBJ
lection OF persons who do not believe
he is entitled to the position.
LAKE COUNTY
NAN POSSIBILITY.
J. Glenn Harris. of Lake county, is an
aEowed candidate for the speakership
at the next regular session and it is pos
sible that under the circumstances he
viii seek the place at the special ses-
sion.
The question Of how to keep the legls-
lature from doing things when it con-
venes in special session also is worrying
the state administration.
Already the usual bills which make
their appearance just before any session
Of the assembly, regular or special, are
being drafted, and various interests are
determined to present them
The date Of the session. which Gov.
Goodrich has announced he will call, has
not been determined, but it appears to
be the opinion at the statehouse that
it viii convene June IS
The evident attempt on the part Of the
governor TO convene the assembly while
the democratic national convention is in
session has caused considerable comment
10 the effect that an effort Is being made
to prevent any attack on the Goodrich
administration on the part of democratic
leaders during the session.
SESSION NEARER
A PROBABILITY.
That the governor is determined to cali
such q session 10 becoming evident from
she fact that the order has gone out to
vacate Offices used in connection with the
assembly.
Among the bills which may come be-
fore the session is a new Gil inspection
freq grab" bill.
TWO "fee grab" oil bills were before
I the last regular session, and both OF
Nssem were passed
The oil inspection department is now
a part Of the state food and drug de-
partment
Under the proposed bin, which is said
to be backed by Marion Caldwell, de-
posed chief Of the oil inspection depart
menk, the state would be divided into
thirteen districts identical with the con.
Grsssional districts, with a chief in,
Epeetor, drawing a salary OF IS, 900 a
ysaE, heading each district. and a state
chief. drawing a salary OF $4,000 a year.
te kave charge generally.
These salaries would be paid from fees
collected from oil companies for inspee-
tlSn work.

New British Wheats.

Sir Daniel Morris stated at the last
meeting Of the British association that
as a result of the recent plant-breed-
ing work done by Biffen, at Cam
bridge, new wheats have been grown
over extensive areas in eastern Eng
land, yielding crops at the rate of so
to 90 bushels per acre, and even "
bushels in the case of one area of 81
acres. The average yield in England
is 80 bushels per acre. Besides being
more productive, the new wheats are
less liable to disease and make better
flour than the ordinary English
wheats. In India, the Pusa wheats,
developed by the Towards, will soon
be grown over an area of 100000
acres, and are expected to increase
the value of the wheat crop in India
to the extent of $25,0O0,00O annually.
