The high cost of living seems to be
boosting the marriage game. School
teachers and single ladies well along
in years are making matches, going
to housekeeping and home-making.
Boarding, living singly in hotels and
eating at restaurants is so open to
profteering that married life presents
economic advantages not here before
dreamed of. So much prepared food
can be had that a very inferior cook
can set up a good meal. Gas and
electricity, ready baked bread and
even ready born children can be had.
All the rest is to the good, financially,
morally and from the basis of equal
rights, Individual development and
personal liberty. Two can live cheap
er together than two can apart. The
sacrifice of club privileges, bachelor
life and social freedom is more than
compensated by the stabilizing in
fuence of the home, even if the mar
rage is childless. A partnership is
stronger than one-man or one
woman business if both work and con.
tribute equally of cash and other con
siderations.-Ex.

The master minds of the age are
devoted to the conquering of disease.
The desire for personal gain, fame
or power is gradually being replaced
by the desire to benefit humanity.
Vast sums are being expended yearly
in great laboratories and pathological
institutions for research work to
make healthier and happier people.
Great strides have been made in
medical arts and methods the last
few years, especially is that true in
the field of chronic diseases.

Abeles Denies His Vote
Ratified Prohibition

State Senator Peter Abeles. of the
Bronx. says that Tax Commissioner
Arthur Murphy, Democratic leader of
the Bronx, is in error in charging that
the vote of Mr.. Abeles on the ratifca-
tlon OF the Eighteenth Amendment was
the decisive vote. In a statement yes
terday the Senator said:
Arthur Murphy is in error when
he says 1t was my vote which was in
strumental in the adoption of the rati-
flcatlon amendment. My vote was not
needed: There were twentv-seven votes
for ratification and twenty-four against.
Had voted with the Democrats the
vote would have stood twenty-six for
and twenty-five against ratification.
My position on the question of per
sonal liberty is matter of record in
the Senate. l voted for the Sutherland
per cent beer and light wine bill, and
voted also for the Walker PTS per cent
beer and light wine bill. so it cannot
be SAID that my position on the whole
question is not consistent with the
Democratic state PLATFORM

Hays Sees Chance
For 80 More Seats
Ina the Next House
Tess and McCarl to Spend
Most of Their Time Lining
Up Close Congressional
Districts in the West

Representative Simeon D. Fess, Of
ONO. chairman of the Congress ion al
Campaign Committee. and J. R. McCarl,
executive secretary, will spend most of
their time from now until the end of
the campaign looking after the close
Congre ssonal districts in the Middle
West and Western states. Chairman
Hays, of the National Committee, has
got the work of the Congressional and
the Senatorial campaign committees
coordinated so as to avoid inter
ference
The headquarters of the Western
Congressional Campaign Committee
have been opened in the Auditorium
hotel, Chicago, near the Headquarters
OF the National Committee in the same
hotel. Chairman Tess and his assist
ants are in close touch with Chairman
Hays and Vice Chairman John T.
Adams. The drive for additional seats
IN both the Senate and the House will
90 forward with unremitting vigor.
Inc big gains made two years ago
shook Things up along the battlefront,
and Chairman Hays, after a thorough
survey, has discovered that it is en-
tlrely practicable, with hard work to
cap twenty or thirty more seats in
the House. Recently an agreement
was reached whereby the National
committee, the Congressional Commit
tee and the Senatorial advisory COM
mlttee united IN the establishment of q
JOINT speakers bureau, of which Sen
ator New is national director Con
gresham Good of Iowa, is the West
ern director, and Colonel Thomas w.
Miller has supervision in the East.
Inc bitterness caused by the defeat
OF Senator Thomas z. Gore in the
oklahoma primaries on the Wilson
League OF Nations issue has given the
republicans an opening there, and they
nave dominated Representative J. w.
Harreld, who beat his Democratic on
ponent IN the Oklahoma City district
last year, district which ALWAYS has
been Democratic
senator Gore of late years, has de-
veloped considerable independence
and he took strong stand against
permanently involving the United
States in the World War Furthermore.
he warned the Democrats that if thew
persisted in putting over the Wilson
League of Nations they would drive
thousands OF Irish Democrats out of
the party
The Wilson administration men
threw the whole force of the federated
aomlnlstratlon against him. 1t was
'" va 'he the primary campaign that
ne could not even buy Advertising

Wilson men, in one of the btterest.
campaigns in the history of the state

White Says He Is Ready
To Face Committee
''OW Books Aro Open," De-
clares Democratic Chairman;
M Oney Plans Uncertain

George White, chairman Of the
Democratic National Committee, said
yesterday he was ready to respond to
the summons Of the Senate Committee
which has called Governor Cox, Wilbur
W. Marsh, treasurer of the national
committee and himself to Chicago on
Monday to tell what they know of the
S15,000,000 slush fund which Governor
Cox says the Republicans are raising
"Our books are open. and I am
the Senate Committee" said Chairman
White
For the present there seems to be a
wide discrepancy in the plans of the
Democratic National Committee for
raising money A year ago W. D.
Jameson, financial director Of the
House in this city, explained
in detail to newspaper mon that the
committee was out to collect from
IS 100000 to $10.0U0,000, and that there
would be no limit to the size of contri-
buttons.
Mr. Marsh said last week that the
committee was proceeding with the
work OF collecting funds on the lines
laid down by Mr.. Jameson, but that
ne would now consider fund of $780,
600 large and adequate war chest for
the campaign.
Two years ago, just after the Re-
publlcans had made a clean sweep of
the Congressional districts in Maine,
the Democratic National Committee
sent out many letters to Democrats
asking for contributions Some of
these came into the possession of their
opponents. In a confidential letter to
John White, of Lexington, KY, Mr.
Jameson wrote:
Dear Mr.. White: Didn't the dona-
ton you gave the Democratic National
Committee two years ago to helr to re-
elect President Wilson prove the best
political investment you ever made?
All investments, including political
ones. have to be. protected.
The National Committee now needs
another donation from you to helr
safeguard that which we won, thanks
to your help and that of others like
you, two years ago.
The Republicans are out to win Con
gress in this falls elections Wha
would Berlin think if the Administra
tons party met with national defeat
l GU ana all the balance of US must no
permit this to occur
Sit right down, Mr.. White, and sene
us your check, making the contribution
at least as much as you gave before
and as much more as you can afford.
Here is an addressed envelope. We
are looking confidently for an lmmedi-
ate reply, for our campaign needs ar,
very urgent and very hard to meet. We
must depend on men like you, who viii
make little extra sacrifice to aid in {
difficult situation. Very sincerely,
''W. D. JAMESON.
"P. Sid you notice the return,
from the Maine election? They indi
cate the hard fight we are up against.

ventions, Republican mayors of pro-
gressive cities have come out openly in
favor of the Democratic ticket The
great big thing this means is that the
American voters, men and women. are
using their heads-that they will no
longer be controlled by party shib-
boleths and party expediency. 1t means
that they propose that the United
States shall keep on going forward"
Touching upon events at Chicago
Mr.. Roosevelt said
I'm the matter of the nominations
the country believed progressive Re-
publican should be nominated for the
Presidency. A number of progress
sive- minded candidates were dis
cussed-one of them, the present Sena-
tor and former Governor of this great
progressive state. had indeed received
majority vote in almost every state
IN which he had been a candidate in
the Primaries yet it became very
clear from the opening day of that
Chicago convention that no progressive
Republican would be nominated. In
fact, l understand on exceedingly good
authority that Senator johnson has
since stated in definite terms that at
no time did he have 'Chinaman' s
chance of being nominated"
