MANY MEN WE'RE DEFEATED
Recent Primaries Held Retired A
Good Many of The Well
Known Statesmen.

Sad havoc has been created in
some of the most important legisla-
lative COMMITTEES in the house of rep
resentatives as a result of primary
elections in the various states, most
of which are now concluded. In at
least three instances, members of the
house who by reason OF long SER
vice have attained chairmanships
have been refused denominations
by their party constituents, and the
next congress will see them no more.
And of course new chairmen will be
named TO the committees over which
they preside.
Three notable committees which
have suffered vacancies through the
fortunes of politics are the inter
state and foreign commerce commit
tee, charged with jurisdiction Of rail-
road legislation, water power bills,
and much other matter in the ma
ture of reconstruction legislation:
the judiciary committee, which
is much in the public eye because it
handled all prohibition legislation;
and the river and harbors committee
the clearing house for local water
way and river and harbor develop
ment bills, more usually styled
pork barrel measures by those I'M
friendly to that form of legislation.
Representative John j. Esch, of
Wisconsin, father of the Esch-Cum-
Minis railroad law, and one of the
most notable authorities on railroad
and kindred legislation in congress,
was defeated for denomination and
will retire as head OF the interstate
and foreign commerce committee
at the close of the present congress.
Six other members of this committee
were turned down by their cOnstit-
uents or withdrew, including two
republicans, Hamilton, of Michigan,
and Ellsworth, of Minnesota, and
four democrats, Sims, of Tennessee,
Doremus, of Michigan; Dewalt, of
Pennsylvania, and Sanders, of Lonis-
lana. The latter was unsuccessful
in his race for the senate.
On the judiciary committe, there
has been a loss of six members.
Dick T. Morgan, of Oklahoma, in
line to succeed Volstead as chairman
died early in the summer. Currie,
of Michigan, another dry republic
can. fell by the wayside in the prim-
aries, as did three democrats on the
committee, Igo, of Missouri; Gard, of
Ohio; Whaley, of South Carolina;
and Steel, of Pennsylvania; Caraway,
of Arkansas will probably be elect
ed to the senate, having won the
nomination.
A New York republican. S. Wal
lace Dempsey, probably will become
chairman on rivers and harbors, the
present chairman, Kennedy, of Iowa,
( being out of it for the next congress.
Three other republican members OF
this committe not to be returned in
the next congress are Costello, Of
! Pennsylvania; Emerson, of Ohio;
who will be succeeded by former Sem
atOr Burton, JUL, of Illinois. Dem
ocrats on this committee who will
not be in the next congress are
Small, of North Carolina; Booher,
of Missouri; Gallagher, of Illinois,
and Scully, OF New Jersey, who vol
UNFAIRLY retired.

PRESIDENT GIVES cox AID
Wilson Enters Campaign and Comes
to Rescue of League of Nations.

President Wilson's entry into the
campaign, with the first series of
public statements in defense of the
league of nations, signalizes the be-
ginning of a desperate effort to save
/ James Nj. Cox and the covenant from
/ defeat.
This move on the part of the White
House is the result of negotiations
: between Secretary Tumulty and +.
H. Moore of Ohio, who made two
trips to Washington and discussed,
with those advisers of the president
who are friendly to the Cox campaign
the discouraging situation that con-
fronts the Democratic leaders. Mr..
Moore wanted to see the president,
but failed to obtain an appointment,
and left Washington explaining that
Mr.. Wilson was too i'll to receive
him.
II Mr.. Cox should be elected, now
that the president has entered the
fight with his trenchant pen, the re-
suit would be attributed largely, il
not entirely, to Mr.. Wilson's power
full aid as a defender and interpreter
of the covenant.
Conversely, however, the election
of Harding and the defeat of the COW
enant, now that the president has
assumed the burden OF its defense,
would be interpreted as a repudia-
ton of Mr.. Wilson by the people,
more Complementary than he ex-
perienced in the election of 1918,
when the country answered his ap-
peal for a Democratic congress with
the election of a Republican house
and senate.
The presidents assertion that
there is nothing in the covenant
which in the least interferes with
or impairs the right Of congress to
declare war, according to its own
independent judgment" again
raises the question of why he re-
fused to accept the Lodge reserva-
tions, making this explicit

JOBS EQUAL TO THE MEN

Reports made public by employ
ment agencies in the cities indicate
that Jobs will soon be scarce in cities.
Equalization of labor supply and
demand during the past week is re-
ported for the first time in two
years, as many men were found seek
ing work as were Jobs available.
A feature OF the week was fall
ing off in demand for unskilled Ia
Dor. Previously there had been a
greater call for this class of labor
than for the white collar" workers.
The report said 1t was all together
possible the near future would see
a return OF the conditions where
there are more men than jobs.

HARDING ODDS FOUR TO ONE

In response to President WILSON'S
statement published in the morning
newspapers relative to the league
of nations, odds on Harding to be
elected president receded in the Wall
street betting Tuesday,.
Whereas at the close Of last week
they were to 1. today they went
back to 4 to 1. w. l.. Darnell & Co.
of New York, were offering $4,000
against $4,000 The same firm last
week were willig to lay $4,000
against $4,000. Darnell & Co, of
New York City also were ready to
make the following additional wag-
ers. Nine to five that Harding will
carry Ohio; to he carries that
state by 10000; 2h to l he carries
NewYork state, and 6 to he carries
II by 100000. The firm likewise
has money to place at even that the
republican presidential candidate
carries Greater New York.
