Washington, Oct. 9.-Events of
the week just closed have brought
Washington to the consciousness
that a great work of evolution is
going on within the ranks of the
all-dominant republican party.
Control of the party slowly but
definitely is falling into the hands
of the western elements. The pro-
cess of attrition has been so grad
ual that few have appreciated its
extent. But call them radicals or
progressives as you will. it came
to be an admitted fact today that
these elements have developed a
strength and a soliditary which
permits them to dictate just what
the party shall or shall not do.
1t is with something of wrench
that Washington sees the control of
the grand old party drifting out of
the restraining influence of the
tive east out of the keeping
of the prim New England states
and of powerful Pennsylvania
which so long have welded die
tatorship over it,
For be it known that Senator
Penrose and his all-prevailing fl
nance committee have been conf
PEELED to bend the knee to the So
called agricultural bloc which is
nothing more or less than an or
ganized group Of the determined
senator's of the west. Time was
when Senator Penrose at the
crack of whip could have mus
tered all the republican senators
in line and trained them in a Choir
us of "ayes" which would have
put through any form of tax or
tariff legislation which he desired,
But that time is no more. The west
has risen. The west is feeling its
strength. The west has very plain
ly told the east that it was the west
which gave the republican party
control of the senate, that it was
the west which produced nearly all
the new republican senators for
this session and that when the re-
publican ticket last November
swept every state west of the Mis-
sissippi river. with the exception of
Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas, it
welded a new and powerful influ-
ence for the west in the affairs of
the party.
The situation In Washington def
initely has developed the fact that
party control at the present time
rests entirely in the senate of the
United States The senate is all
powerful. 1t can set at nought the
best intended action of that more
popular branch of the national
legislature, the house of represent
atives. and it has shown only too
we'll that it can veto virtually every
act of the president If it be SO in
clined.
The realization has come to
washington with greater force
than ever, therefore. that the ele-
ments which control q majority in
the senate have all but complete
control of party plans and policies.
1t remains consequently for the
present majority in the senate. to
whom President Harding must
look for the execution of adminis-
tration plans to~preside over the

FALLING into WESTERN fANDS

destinies of the republican party in
the next three years.
Control and leadership OF the
republican party in the senate have
been so long vested in the east as
to have become traditional. This
tradition in itself makes the new
developments difficult OF realiza-
ton but just as surely as the party
itself sprang from the west, so the
direction of it is taking now its
westward way.
Analysis of the situation among
the republicans in the senate, how
ever, is tremendously illuminating.
The republican strength today is
sixty senator's. Thirty-three of
these come from states bordering
upon or lying west of the Missis-
sippi river. Five more come from
the middle western states of lndi-
ana, Michigan and Ohio. From
New England ana the east, includ.
ing West Virginia, come twenty
two republican senators.
Here we have total of thirty
eight midwestern and far western
republican senators against an east
ern representation of twenty-five.
If the midwestern strength should
at any time be counted with New
England and the east, the Missis-
sippi and far western states still
would have a majority of thirty
'hree to twenty-seven.
But this is not all. IF the re-
publican sweep of last fall was an
indication of more or less per-
manent epublicanization of the far
west, the republicans of that sec
tion will have an opportunity in
the next three years to elect nine
additional senator's. The republic
cans of New England and the east
will have an opportunity to elect
but two additional senators, with
possibility of losing one or two in
a state like Maryland.
1t is not difficult, in view of these
figures, to understand, why the
western republicans are coming to
the fore, why they are imposing
their will upon the party, and why
they are saying OF measures which
have failed to meet their favor,
"they shall not pass" 1t is per-
fectly true that there are scattered
conservatives among the republi-
cans of the west, like Warren, of
wyoming, and Smoot, of Utah, and
Phipps, of Colorado, but the pro-
gressive element is dominant and
militant.

Chicago, Oct, 9.-Chicago So
ciety. shocked by the very cold and
extremely formal announcement
last week that Mr.. and Mrs. Harold
Mccormick, the former head of
the International Harvester COM
pany, and the latter daughter of
John ID. Rockefeller, were no
longer living under the same roof,
is wondering now just what part
in all of this domestic infelicity
Mrs. McCormick's new school of
synthetic psychology" is to play.
Mrs. Mccormick came home the
other day after eight years Of exile
and study in Switzerland, an
nouncing that the new psychology
was calculated to make all things
better. The most startling an
nouncement she was quoted as
making was this: 81 am a pyschol-
ogist and ! believe in freedom of
action. My psychology does en-
able me to understand my husband
very thoroughly and my children.
ut enables me to keep in touch
at all times with what my husband
and children are doing. however
great the distance between them.'
Its Possibilities.
1t was seen at once that the pos
sibilities of such school of psy-
chology were infinite. Wives have
been wanting to know what their
husbands were doing all down
through the ages, and 1t was cer-
tain that Mrs. McCormick's school,
If it could guarantee such vision,
would be swamped with students
from the very start.
But has this synthetic psychol-
ogy'' met it's first test? According
to the friends of Mrs. Mccormick,
if Mrs. Mccormick could have
looked any lonely evening from her
chateau in Zurich through utterly
negligible space to the Mccormick
country place at Lake Forest she
would have beheld through sny-
thetic IL not through sympathetic
eyes the figure of a man pacing
back and forth, longing for the
companionship of wife and children
and for that domestic completeness
which only a woman in the home
can give.
IL Mrs. Mccormick, with the gift
of the new cult occupying her mind
and soul, saw. she shook her head
sadly and murmured to herself
that synthetic psychology had an
appeal far above the common
places of a united home or of do
mestic happiness.
Woman Unpcrturbcd.
Since her arrival in Chicago and
the announcement of the separa-
ton, which announcement came
exclusively from Mr.. Mccormick,
Mrs. Mccormick has remained the
most unperturbed of women. 1t Is
said that Mrs. Anne Potter (FifD
Stillman made a pilgrimage to
Zurich last summer when her own
home was In process of dissolution
and sought solace and strength
for her coming ordeals in the same
school of thought in which Mrs.
Mccormick was immersed. This
was the school of DR.. Carl Jung,

Belfast, oct. 9 (by the Associated
Press. Damaged by one vessel in
a dense fog off the southwest coast
of Scotland and then sunk by an
other coming to its aid, was the
fate early this morning of the Laird
Line steamer Rowan, plying be-
tween Glasgow and Dublin. Thlr-
teen of the Rowans $ crew and three
passengers are missing. Two pas
sengers died after being rescued
by vessels which responded to the
wireless S. .. S. call.
An official statement says that
the Rowan carried ninety-three
persons, including the crew, seven
ty-seyen or whom are accounted for
by the four vessels which went to
the Rowan's assistance.
Aboard the Rowan was the
American Southern Syncopated or
chestra, composed largely of coll
ored players, who had been tour
ing this side of the water since
1919.
One of the men who died after
being taken out of the sea was
Pete Robinson, the drummer Of the
orchestra.
The accident was due to a double
collision in the North Channel, off
Corsewall Point. The Rowan first
collided with the American steamer
West Camak, both of them being
damaged. The West Camak stood
by with forepeak full of water
meanwhile sending out wireless
calls for aid. The Clan Liner, Clan
Malcolm, responded but in the con-

Immediately.
The West Camak helped In the
rescue work, afterward putting in
to Glasgow with twenty-six sur
vivors. Captain Donald Brown, of
Glasgow, is reported to have gone
down with the Rowan. Three other
vessels also answered the call and
completed the work of rescue, as
far as was possible. The Clan NAL
colin, which rammed the Rowan
amidships. was damaged slightly.
The Syncopated orchestra, which
went to London in June, 1919, gave
performances there and vicinity
until two months ago, when they
made tour of Scotland.

Washington, Oct. 9.-Basing the
conclusions upon practically COM
plete reports of business on main
line railroads during August, the
Association of Railroad Executives
announced today that indicated
betterment in earnings on the
country's transportation system
has so far been due to skimping of
expenditures on maintenance work

Mainly by virtue of this reduc-
ton, which represents in a large
measure the failure to expend
money which must later be put
into the properties" the statement
asserted, "the railroads in August
of this year were able to show a
net operating income of $90.200,-
600. Had they spent the same
amount for maintenance during
that month that they spent for the
same purpose In August. 1920, they
would have had this August an op-
Grating deficit of $6o,S00.000."
