Hour. Ahead Of Schedule


Ormond Beach, Fla, Jan. 23.-The
house boat Victoria, on which Presi-
dcnt-elect Harding Is cruising down
the Indian river, made the first stop
Of her voyage at Ormond Beach this
afternoon and disembarked her pas
scngers for two-hour motor ride
along the Florida east shore. boule-
ward The stop here and a brief tie
up when the Victoria tried to go
through the Ormond drawbridge
were the only incidents on the log of
the houseboat during a peaceful Sun
days rest.
Taking advantage of perfect
weather she pushed ahead Of her
schedule and when she tied up for the
night she was within a few hours OF
Rock Ledge, where the party expects
to go ashore some time tomorrow for
golf match
During the automobile ride. Mr..
Harding and his companions drove
into Daytona, oight miles from here
and brought back Senator A. B. Cum
minis Of Iowa, who has been at a
Daytona hotel and who will make
the remainder Of the houseboat trip
as a member OF the vacation party.
Under hot sun tho president elect
came ashore wearing white woolcns
and a straw hat. His visit attracted
littla attention, though the Victoria
dockcd within a stones throw OF a
big tourist hotel Details OF his va
cation trip had been kept confidential
and only a few OF the guests here
learned OF his arrival until after the
Victoria had headed downstream
again.
The trouble at the drawbridgc oc-
Cured soon after and held up the
Victoria for more than an hour. She
attempted the passage at too shallow
a point and stuck In the mud in such
a position that the bridge could not

time moro than a score Of automobiles
wore held up and crowd OF several
hundred gathered on the bridge and
cheered tho houseboat when she finally
extricated herself.

Nearly 1000 automobiles escape
taXation in this county, according to
Comptroller General Sutherland. This
is about one-third of all the automo-
bles in the county. Something is
proportion of any class Of taxable
property escapes taxation. On the
"Forty-two Per Cent" basis the tax
able income from these cars would
pay for the top-soil road from here to
Clinton in year or So 1t occurs to
us that it is not yet too late to collect
this tax. 1t is due those who have
turned in their cars for taxation to
have the dodgers pay up also.

CAPITALISM Az ASSET

b. G. Forbes, one Of the foremost
writer's on financial subjects in the
United States, writing in Hearst's
Magazine, points out that there has
been two great cras or swings of the
pendulum in this country during the
past few years and that the pendulum
may swing back again to where It was
twenty years ago.
The first era he referred to was the
capitalstic era. during which time
capital was In the ascendancy, enor-
nous trusts formed with large blocks
OF watcred stock, unjust and unearned
profits being wrung from the consum-
er and out OF the products Of labor
The second era Is that Just past or
possibly not past yet. where labor had
come into the ascendancy and had
capital at its knees.
Mr.. Forbes does not risk saying
which era was the best for the ma
ton, contenting himself with pointing
out that the greed and rapacity of the
labor unions may force the pendulum
to the other extreme and capital again
be supreme. But. looking back over
the years, surveying the progress the
1talism and then seeing to what end
the business life is brought today, It is
reasonable TO believe at least that the
era OF capitalism was not without

ITALIAN PRINCE
SAYS ARBUCKLE
TRIAL is SLOW

LOuderbGck Such Cases
End Quickly.

SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 2S.-The Ar
buckle trial has invoked from foreign
royalty q diplomatic criticism.
1t is in effect the gentle comparison
between the courts Of our country and
those OF Italy.
The critic is T. PiEnatell, an Italiar
prince on board the cruiser Libia, an
chored here in San Francisco bay. \ seat
IS reserved for him at the trial. The
Italian vessel IS taking the Prince on q
pleasure trip around the world
In my country there Is much more
speed in bringing such issues as these
TO a close" he remarked today. after q
visit to Judge Louderbacks court, where
he had been observing the proceedings.
There we have murder cases and have
sentence pronounced within a single
week"
The Prince had something to say, too,
on the point Of women Jurors:
1T is q spectacle to see" he said. 1T
is democracy indeed"
According TO the Prince, Italy knows
no women Jurors. They do not even
dream Of such thing In his country.
In most cases women are excluded from
the courtroom.
His royal highness was dressed in cor
rect street attire without any symbol Of
rank He was attended only by n lieu
tenant from the Libia.

EYE ON
LINEUP OF NEW
CITY COUNCIL
Local Politicians Much Inter
ested in Maneuvers on
Which Hangs Presidency.

Although the date when they take
ofice is more than a month away, mem
bers Of the city council already have
begun to align themselves into majority
and minority factions. the division aris-
ing over the candidates. Of Walter W.
Wise and Lloyd D. Claycombe for the
presidents chair.
Mr.. Claycombe appears to have the
edge in the race at the present time, due
TO the fact that he is understood to have
pledges Of the support Of the three Demo-
cratic members-elect, William T. Clauer,
Otto Ray and Heydon ". Buchanan,
and at least one Of the other Republican
members. Both Wise and Claycombe are
understood to be still working for the
support Of Ben II. Thompson, Theodore
J. Bernd and John E. King. 1t is IN
derstood that Ira Bramblett is aligned
with CIaycombe.
Men who have been appointed for
executive positions by Mayor Elect Sam
uel Lewis Shank are watching the cOun-
cilmanic maneuvers with great interest
because they hope there viii be no per-
manent division Of the council, such as
proved such embarrassment to Mayor
Jewett during his four years. Throughout
the campaign Mr. Shank pleaded for the
kelectiOn of a majority of Republicans
~tO the council so he might be assured
OF support from the city council In carry
ing out the major improvements he plans.
In such movements the council has power
practically equal to that Of the mayor
since It passes upon bond issues, tax
levies and appropriation ordinances.
The new council takes office Jan. ..
along with MavOr-EIect Shank and will
elect officers on the evening of that date.

1t will expire automatically and

diplomatic shot from any quarter.
That is the amazing situation brought
about by the rapidly unfolding Ameri-
can-Chinese program for regulation Of
Asiatic problems. 1t is too early to ac-
claim it as triumph for American diplo-
macy. Events have developed in a direc-
ton agreeable to the United States, rather
than in consequence Of any systematic

Of declaring at some psychological mo-

such action Both Great Britain and

But whenever John W. Talbot sets his

that it IS covered with sensualty, be-

There is something synonymous with
