North Carolina.

The appearance of former Secretary
Daniels in current North Carolina
politics revives the report that he has
seat in tho United States Senate in
view. If the report is true. Mr.. Daniels
will have for his opponent Mr.. Sim
mons, who is expected to seek re.
election.
The contest would be very pretty
one. Both are seasoned politicians, ma
tives Of the Old North state. and IA
miliar with its affairs. Both have
many warm friends.
Mr.. Daniels has never held an cleo
tive office; has never appealed to the
people Of the state for their votes. He
has established his influence through
journalism. For some years before
accepting the Navy portfolio he had
been the foremost editor in the state.
and upon quitting Washington he re-
turned to his profession. lie is very
popular with both his recent chief. Mr..
Wilson. and Mr.. Bryan.
MIR. Simmons is in his fifth term in
the Senate, and holds high rank there.
He heads the democratic membership
Of the finance committee, and is his
party's tariff authority in the cham
ber. He superintended the revision OF
the Underwood tariff measure as it
had passed the House eight years ago.
and during the war, as chairman of
the finance committee. helped put the
big war loans into shape. Last year,
at San Francisco. North Carolina
gave him as personal compliment
her support for the presidential NOM
ination.
II next years senatorial race in Tar
heelia takes this complexion it will at
tract national attention. and probably
draw in national influences. Both Mr..
Daniels and Mr.. Simmons have emf
nent friends outside the state who
would be at their service.

ing ore another around the country,
waiting time and money, while the
enemy, with far better system, was
diligently at work.
These wartime experiences amply
proved the need Of consolidation.
Only by concentrating authority under
the head Of single bureau can dupli.
cations be avoided and efficient work
be done. Mr.. Burns Is a well known
investigator. He has scored some re.
miarkable successes in both public and
private employment. A better equipped
man for the governments detective
service could hardly be found, and if
the consolidation urged by Attorney
General Daugherty is accomplished
Mr.. Burns would make most salts
factory chief of the resultant service.
There is much work to be done by
the government in the uncovering Of
crime and the identification and cap
ture Of criminals. The war has left
some troublesome cases, and even
with them adjusted there will always.
owing to the predisposition of a large
part of humanity toward criminal
practice. be much ferreting out of mis-
deeds. There is no reason why the
United States should not organize this
essential work upon business basis.
and assure the greatest efficiency and
economy of funds and energy by in
trusting to one bureau all the in
vestigating work required by every
branch Of the public service.

The Virginia Campaign.

This is taken from a special to The
Star from Richmond respecting repub-
lican plans for the Virginia state cam
paign just opening:
ut is stated that President Harding
make speech for the state repub-
lican ticket. and that Secretary
Weeks Col. Theodore Roosevelt and
other republicans are to be asked to
come and lend hand in the contest"
The republicans are trying to set
their house in order in the south. In
half dozen states they are reorgan-
izing their committees. and assessing
what is necessary to meet objections
which have impeded republican growth
in that section.
This policy has been tried before.
Several times overtures have been
made looking to bringing the south
under the influence of two-party con-
ditions-conditions which best typify
American political life. and which
elsewhere have produced excellent
progressive local government. Never
theless. the south has remained a one
party section, and impregnably demo
cratic.
Does the present time encourage the
renewal of such overtures? Last year
the republicans made a decided i'm
preston on the border. In Maryland.
Delaware. West Virginia. Kentucky.
Tennessee and Missouri they showed
great strength. With the exception of
Kentucky all those states voted for
Harding. and Kentucky came within
a few thousand of joining them.
Virginia remained democratic. But
the republican appeal there this year
is made with a ticket excellent as to
personnel, and on a platform dealing
with live state issues. II the national
administration throws its influence
into the scale the campaign should at
tract wide attention.

Good American Doctrine.

The unionist party Of Porto Rico
continues it's agitation for independ-
ence for the island, and Gov. Reilly
stands pat on his opposition to the
proposal.
In reply to letter by the leader Of
the unionist party recommending the
appointment of friends to Office. Gov.
Reilly made this reply:
II shall never. appoint any man to
any office who is an advocate of in
dependence. When you publicly re-
nounce independence and break loose
from some of your pernicious and un-
American associates. then l will be
glad to have your recommendations.
along with those of any other good
citizens of our beloved Porto Rico"
This is in the right key. Put none
but Americans on guard" Men who
flag should not while living under the
Stars and Stripes be intrusted with
any governmental duties. The offices
in Porto Rico should be reserved for
those, native or foreign born. who sub
scribe without reservation to Ameri-
can rule, and favor it's continuation.
In no other way can that rule be ad
ministered to the full benefit Of the
people.
The Porto Ricans. like the Filipinos.
have profited greatly by the change
from Spanish to American control of
their country. The evidences are all
about. The people. indeed. confess
the fact. Visitors remark on the good
look of things. and speculate pleasant
ly on the future.
Why. then, independence, except as
a means of setting the stage for the
plans of men ambitious to play a
larger part in affairs? What would
there be in it for the rank and file,
who are not seeking Office but desire
only good government? And that they
now have.

Ball Act Extension Likely.

Little time was taken by the House
District committee in consideration of
the bill to extend for seven months the
Ball rent act. The hearing that was
given last evening was plainly su-
perfluous, as the members of the COM
mittee had evidently reached their
conclusions through a reading Of the
committee. which held an exhaustive
hearing on the subject.
- In the judgment Of the Senate and
OF the House committee an emergency
still exists in Washington in respect
to housing. 1t must be assumed that
both bodies believe that this is such
an emergency as would warrant the
supreme Court in again sustaining
the act If the case could be laid before
1t promptly. The court, it is to be as
sumed. judged the law in the light of
the conditions that prevailed at the
time Of its enactment. not those that

there is shortage Of accommodations;
that If the law is permitted to expire

The Governments Secret Service.

Consolidation Of the governments

it is to be hoped that the Attorney
General will succeed in his effort to
this end. Announcement Of his selec-
ton Of William J. Burns as head of
the bureau Of Investigations in the
Department of Justice Is coupled with
a statement to the effect that an as
semblage under one authority and or.
ganization Of all the now separated

Before the war there was occasional.
ly much confusion from the multi.
plicity Of the so-called detective
agencies Of the government. But dur
ing the war this confusion, became
worse ,confounded. Practically every
department had its staff Of "investiga-

modations Of which owners and agents
have been talking there would be no
occasion for a general advance in
rates. unless the rates maintained by
the operation Of the Ball law have
been unfairly low. Undoubtedly In the
event Of a failure to extend the law a
general custer and rate advance would
bring about an immediate reaction In
Congress and the swift passage Of a
bill perhaps even more drastic in
terms than that which Is now in force.
1t is plain that the present disposi-
tion OF Congress is to extend the act.
