Calvin Cooidge's Campaign.

There is wealth of instruction to would be
politicians in the present standing before the people
OF silent man from Massachusetts-Calvin Cool
idge. He isn't elected yet, and though he probably
will be, that fortunate result will be due to forces
over which he has control. The tail Of the
ticket" doesn't count for very much in Presiden-
tal contest, and-if it may be said without ofense
to Senator Harding-the head of the ticket does
count this year. Next Tuesdays election will be a
distinct party triumph, whichever side may win.
And we do not think that any open-minded OBJ
server will doubt that the Republicans today would
be in just as strong position as they are had the
ticket been Coolidge and Harding instead OF in its
present form.
Gov. Coolidge has stayed at home attending
diligently to his duties chief executive of Massa-
chusetts. OF the four figures engaged in the
national struggle he has been least in the public
mind His immediate opponent, Franklin D. Roose-
welt, was nominated by the Democrats with the
very commendable purpose of adding dignity to
their ticket. and offsetng, far might be, the
appeal which Gov. Coolidge would make to the
electorate
Mr.. Roosevelt has been the direct antithesis of
his opponent. He has campagned necessarily, and
talked-Lord how he has talked He talked him
self into fat issue of veracity with the American
press upon the question whether he did, or did not
claim to have possessed part of his personal
whether he claimed to.have written the constitution
under which Haiti is happily living with the aid
OF few Marines. And he has campaigned himself
into libel suit against prominent New England
Journalist who has habit Of fighting back
From his quiet Office, under the Golden Dome,
and hard by the Sacred Goldfish, Gov. Coolidge may
we'll contemplate with philosophy the activity OF his
immediate rival and OF the two candidates for first
place on the ticket We doubt if any politician will
assert that Senator Hardng's strength has been
materially enhanced by his sales from the front
porch, out into the battle front. True the neces-
sity for lending helpful hand to Senatorial nomi-
nees compelled these excursions, but so far as his
own personal fortunes concerned the front
porch campaign serving them admirably As
for his opponent, the careerngs OF Cox over the
land have been followed by so many corrections
and restatements OF his position that the days when
he and the occupant Of the White House were COM
pletely at one on the league issue seem now far
away and fabulous.
To get fair idea OF the value OF the Coolidge
type OF campaign, ask yourself if you have ever
seen attack on the Massachusetts, governor since
the campaign began.

NEW SCHEME
BY SOCIALISTS
Devise Original Method Of
Disseminating Propagan-
da as News Shrapnel."
By RAYMOND G. CARROLL.

New York. Oct. 27.-Propsgands
has been called grown up public
ity." The New York Call, the So
cialist daily. is spreading propa-
ganda by a unique method. 1t is
called Socialist shrapnel." An en-
tire inside double page is divided
into nine squares, each containing
the identical message" On one
side 1t is a short pa mphIet and upon
the opposite side a Ryan Walker
cartoon.
Instructions TO readers are printed
at the top of the page: Tear the
page into three parts from top to
bottom. Now you have three strips.
Divide these into three parts by
tearing across the lines indicated.
Now you have nine pieces of shrap-
mel. Scatter the message"
In order to see how many Socialist
readers participate in the distribu-
tion the newspaper asks: Send us
postal card on which you write
these words: On the job! then sign
your name and address"
1t is the endless chain idea linn
tied to the nine persons to whom
the regular reader hands the dod-
ger. A clever brain thought it out,
for there is the saving in printing,
and by making it a part of a news
paper a circulator is found for
the dodgers. Each day the mes
sage" is changed. In the matter OF
energy and ingenuity the old polit-
ical parties could well AFFORD to
study some of the publicity methods
OF the jealous Socialists.

Writer Says Puritans
Differed From Pilgrims

Pilgrims and Puritans are often
confused in the minds of those
speaking of the early days of New
England history, Frank NJ. Gregg.
in his book. The Founding of a
Nation" explains the difference.
The colonists Of the Mayfower
were Englishmen OF the period OF
1908, while the Puritans Of Massa-
chusetts Bay Colony (salem ada
Boston, were Englishmen of the
period OF 1928. The Pilgrims, at
tributing their prosecutions to the
bishops Of the established church,
and not TO the King, came to Amer
ica to enjoy religious freedom, while
the Puritans came to enjoy politi-
cal as well as religious freedom,
While the latter did not agree with
all the forms and rituals of the
established church, they also re-
fused TO withdraw from IL, hoping
to reform from within rather than
from without. The Pilgrim sep
arated himself from the church al
together.
The Pilgrims held that church ana
state should be separated. ANY re-
spectable man in Plymouth could be
a free man and vote whether he
was a member of the CONGREGATION
or not. The Puritans of Salem and
Boston, however. vigorously held
that only members OF the church
had the rights Of free men and the
power to vote

Unity in Central America.

Citizens and officials OF this country welcome
all signs of unihcation of interest and outward
political form in the republics to the south There
fore they welcome reports indicating that the
referendum to be taken in Central America
the issue OF the union of the FIVE republics
bids fair to be conducted fairly and in a thor
oughly democratic way that all communities
voting may freely record their wills and rural as
we'll as urban dwellers count in shaping the verdict
To create public opinion favorable to such
referendum and a supplementary joint consti-
tution-making convention which will meet in
Costa Rica in December has been slow process
owing to nationalistic jealousies; and even now
there is chance that at the last moment some
one OF the republics may revert to its traditional
position. But Minister to Guatemala who
has just arrived in Washington, is optimistic
about the plan going through, providing at the

The decision OF the u. S. District Court in

claring the fourth section OF the Lever act uncon-

it will be we'll to that the defendants counsel
and the court rested their argument and decree on
the lack of equity in the penalty clause of the sec

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
I do not believe that The Herald
would deliberately misrepFesent the
facts, but in one of your editorials
OF October rs, Governor CoX's Lat
est Stand" you surely make an in
gloriously misleading statement.
Emerging from the White House"
you say, Gov. Cox enthusiastically
told the waiting reporters: What
he (Wilson) promised, l shall. if
elected. endeavor with all my
strength to give Upon this Presi-
dent Wilson commented: I found
what I already knew. and what
Gov. Cox has let the world know
in his speeches, that he and ! were
great issue Of the league of ma
tions.' The contract between the
two" you say, is definite" What
was that contract, and how did
you get it? Now, you say. he de
ogize for having declared him in
favor of the league"
But Gov. Cox in all his speeches
declared himself in favor of the
league, and also that he would ac-
cept such interpretations as would
preserve our constitutional rights.
Mr.. Wilson has made no objection
to such interpretations. Senator
reservations went quite
as far in that direction as Senator
Lodges. What he insisted on is
the obligation OF members OF the
league to support each other against
aggression. What kind of
a league would it be in which the
did not agree to stand to-
gether against attack?
People can be very blind and can
by reiteration persuade themselves
Of very remarkable things, but it
is hard for me to believe in the
of the Republican objec-
tors to the league.
