Yale Coaches Nav
Try to Develop
New Quarterback
From Special Correspondent

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Oct. 21.-Al-
though the Yale second team defeated
the varsity to-day, 3 touchdowns to l.,
the downfall Of the regulars is given no
Importance, because so many first
string players were given a rest, owing
to the heat. Eddie Jones, quarterback
for the varsity for the first time this
season, took the ball over for the soli-
tary tally from the five-yard line on an
end run.
Thornc Murphy started the practice
at quarterback, but retired because Of
the heat after he had missed an easy
field goal. Because the coaches regard
Kempton's quarterback play as unsuc-
cessful in field generalship, and be-
cause Of .Murphy's liability to injury, q
new quarter may be developed, and the
choice may lie between Jones and Dan
Kelly, who captained the freshmen part
of last season
Dan Kelly's game shone even more
brilliantly than that of Jones's o-day.
AS quarterback for the second eleven
he was the prime factor in scoring all
three touchdowns. Twice he took the
ball over himself and .he third time he
contributed two goodsized runs, but it
was Bob Lays forward pass to Peter
son which finally counted.
Frank Kelly, the former Rutgers
star returned to the first eleven late in
the practice, and his ground gaining
featured this period. Dutton, junior,
was tried at end during part of to<day's
practice, and will get /. further chance
Saturday. He S six-footer and
weighs ITO pounds.
The lineup of the first team follows:
Left end, Cutler; left tackle, Walker;
left guard, Bean; center, Calvin; right
guard, Into; right tackle, OBrien;
right end, Dilworth; quarterback,

Varsity Scoring g
From a Special Correspondent

PRINCETON, N. j., Oct. 21-In the
final hard scrimmagc of the week be-
fore the Navy game, the Tiger varsity
team scored fifteen points against the
scrubs. Johnny German, last years
freshman quarter, was again the star
of the day, and played an active part
IN all the scoring. He Tailed two
touchdowns and, by making a fair
catch on the 35yard line, made it pos
slblc for Thompson to boot pretty
drop kick over the bars.
The first touchdown came after the
varsity had paraded the ball down the
field and the second after German had
run back a punt forty five yards to
the tiveyard mark. The gencralship
and running of the team by the little
quarterback were flawless, and he is
almost sure to get Into the Harvard
and Yale games for at least time

Let Uncle Sam Become
Landlord to Cut Rents
Purchase of Lands in and About
Cities Suggested as
Relief
ne Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The spectacle Of delegations
Of landlords and tenants bandying in
suits and almost coming to blows over
legislation to curb excessive profits
IS not an edifying one. You cannot
make a man or a class of men decent
and honest by means of legislation. I
do not agree with those of your CORE
spondents who advocate a plank Of
legislation to curb the rent profiteer.
The remedy for high rents OF for
high prices Of commodities is the
same, increased production. IF the
government is to remedy the evil of
high rents, let it become a producer Of
dwellings. There is land in abundance
Within easy committing distance of
New York, and there are sections of
Manhattan Island where land encum-
bered with old buildings can be ac-
CURED cheaply and improved with
model tenements.
Let the Republican party advocate
municipal purchase of lands in and
about our larger cities, the immediate
erection Of apartment buildings
thereon, and the rental OF apartments
in such buildings at a rate which will
return the municipality not over 10
per cent upon its Investment. The

Place in Cabinet
Proposed to Proride
Vice-Presides,t Work

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Why not give the v~ice-Presi-
dent q real job? There has been a
great deal Of talk lately about efficiency
and economy in public office, but in
most Of the discussions of useless and
almost useless Offices no mention has
been made OF the Vice-Presidency. A
striking illustration Of the Vice-Presi-
dents position as it exists now is af-
forded by the difficulty always encoun-
tered in securing candidates for that
thankless Office.
1t present the Vice-President has
nothing to 90 but preside at the ses-
sioNs of the Senate. This is hardly
work enough to keep a capable pu5iic
official busy.
My suggestion is that the Vice-7resi-
dent be made q member Of the Cabi-
net, in the anne capacity that foreign
ministries have Cabinet ministers
without portfolios. Then he Will be
able to devote his knowledge and
ability TO the solution of governmental
problems. He VIII also be kept en-
tlrely familiar with all the details Of
governmental operation and policy.
More, he would serve to 3 greater ex-
tent as a connecting link between the
executive and legislative branches.

Laid
To Neglect of Ballot

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: 1t seems to me now is the time
for the people of this country to wake
up and avail themselves Of suffrage.
I believe that a large majority of
the successful men of affairs in this
country of late years have failed in
their duty to take much interest in
suffrage, and it is probably true that
a large number Of such men rarely
ever vote unless in a Presidential year.
Will the people get together and de-
eide to put honest, capable. successful
and well known Americans in office and
eliminate the schcming lawyers and
professional renegade politicians who
seem now to me a strong element in
all of u political parties? 1t is a great
problem that should be taken serious
ly in hand by all thinking people.
Office should seek the man; not the
man the office, as now.
Personally I would be happy to see
one of u political parties adopt as
q platform the ten points Of the Ten
Commandments, and pick mon for Of
flee who believe in those command
ments and if elected to Office would en-
force them as the political policy at
home and abroad as onr foreign policy.

No Place for Party Lines
I'm Considering Treaty
Issue Held One That Should Be
Decided Without Wasting
More Time

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Why not a plank urging less
p~artisanship and more Americanism ?
1t would be refreshing after the numer-
GUS evidences Of the first mentioned on
the part of our lawmakers. Although it
has been stated tr%uthfully that par
~tisanshlp was practically abandoned by
Republican Congressman during the
war, yet it IS becoming more apparent
day by day that it is sweeping back, to
influence to a more or less extent the
DECISIONS they arc called upon to make.
The President himself established a
precedent and showed frank PARTISAN
ship when he requested the people to
return a Democratic majority to the
Senate.
If the treaty is not American and
cannot be Americanizcd by rescrva-
lions or otherwise, that is. in a sense Of
conforming to our ideals and safe
guarding our interests, why not reject
1T! If it car be Americanized approve
1t. Let's cast aside all party lines in
considering this issue.

Universal Service
ADVOCATED to Assure

To the Editor of The Tribune

10 the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: heartily support the principle
that Equality of opportunity implies
equality of Obligation" and believe that
IN universal service lies the sure hope
Tor { sound American citizenry under a
sound American government. We have
recently had costly evidence of the
need for universal service, the applica-
ton of Equality of obligation'' as it
is usually interpreted.
But Equality Of obligation" must be
construed in a different sense. 1t should
mean not only that every citizen 10
, obligated to defend his country in time
OF need, but also that our government
us obligated to defend its citizens at all
times in all places.
The Republican party must 20 on
record as standing for protection of
american citizens at home or abroad,

such a way that neither Mexican ban

Stand by the Constitution,
Plea of "Dry'' Advocate

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: W. II. c. proposes that the
Republican party frankly avow its
policy on prohibition. He takes &C.
casion to ask if the politicians are
paralyzed with fear of the Anti-Saloon
League. The league never has asked
any one TO fear it and does not require
that attitude of any one, because the
league merely carries the question 70
the people and we have never heard
that that was either cocrcive or un-
American from any one except ONE
New Workers who haven't observed the
progress Of the temperance movement.
| suggest the following plank: The
party pledges itself to uphold the Con-
stitution of the United States in the
spirit of its trainers and in keeping
with the spirit Of its several amend
ments as long as any portion thereof
remains as the supreme law of the
land. 1t advises its members that any
changes thereto or modification there
Of should originate under recognized
lawful procedure with that portion o.
the people interested in such changes.

Prison Sentences for Rent
and Food Cougers Pro-
posed to Curb EUiEs
To the Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Ono cannot fail to be struck
with the new spirit abroad in the coun-
try. 1t is common to hear people saw
that there are no true lines of ~cleayare
between the parties; that there is no
demarcation; that both are one. We
no lonAsr stand aghast at prospect of
change; the halo surrounding cstab-
lished institutions seems to have been
dimmcd.
This feeling is indicative of the sub
dued protest in the hearts of many
citizens. They are weary of the in
efficient service rendered by public Off
Gals and their utter disregard of the
common good. The need of the present
Is government and more government;
a government to stand between. the
u~norganlzed people and their ~despoil-
ers, the food gougers, the clothing and
tho rent proftecrs.
NO government that says, or by in
action implies, that it is powerless to
protect the people in the matter of
food and shelter can long command
their respect and confidence. No cam
Da!gn OF Americanization, no reference
to ineXorable economic laws will sat
lsfy the domand that the government
make possible for our citizens the &C
quirement Of their animal necessities
at reasonable prices.
If the patriotism and sense Of obli-
cation Of the food distributors and
property owners cannot be relied upon,
then the government will have to step
in and assert its power. | would heart
lily recommend this policy to the Re
publican party. 1t is not my
nor am | fitted, to propose legislation.
Perhaps the easiest way would be to
treat all profiteers as traitors and give
them sentences ranging from five to
twenty years in Federal penitentiaries.
1t is the determination to act for the
people in the matter Of the vital neces-
sites Of life that I would commend.
The next four years will be indeed
portentous. The party in power will
have to vindicate before the people the
democracy Of the United States. be-
lieYe that the Republican party Is
lifted for this task.

Living Cost Buoyed

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: l beg to i%nclose a plank on tho
"~keduction in Cost Of Living"
The three greatest excuses are com.
mitted in tho name of taxes. Govern
mental extravaganza and rent proftecr-
ing; Taxes, like rivers seeking the sea.
find themselves saddlcd upon the ulti-
mate consumer. Direct or indirect
taxes, he pays all. Governmental cx-
travagance and waste add to the al

an immoral principle of conduct. Rent

One could not expect tho return of
the old prices formerly prevailing. oven
efforts to reduce living costs; cspeci-
ally as tho incxorablc laws Of supply
and dcmand and the economic handi-
cap resulting from wars interruption Of
commerce will leave their train Of

However, the matters Of unjust taxes,
governmental expenditures and rcnt
proiteering arc artificial buoys Of liv-
