every way If the president-elect were
in office and the new congress In SEES
sion and business going on as usual
ut the old stand before the end OF
January? Well, the presidential cleo
ton of 1923 may be held with this
program in prospect. Anyway Senator
Henry f. Ashurst of Arizona has IN
trOduced a joint resolution Is. j. Res.
22S) providing for the amendment OF
the Constitution as follows:
SECTION /. The terms of the
President and Vice President of the
United States shall commence on the
third Monday in January following the
election of presidential and vice pres
idential electors.
SEC. 2. The presidential and vice
presidential electors, composing the
Electoral College, shall assemble in
the States by which they are APP
pointed and cast their votes for Pres
Ident and Vice President on the second
Monday in December following their
appointment, and the vote so cast, duly
certified, shall be filed with the Rresi-
dent of the Senate before the first
Monday in January next thereafter,
and the Congress shall meet in joint
session on the second Monday in JAN
uary following and open and count the
same: Provided, That Congress may
alter all the dates fixed in this Sec
ton, in its discretion.
SEC. 3. The terms of Senators and
Representatives shall commence on the
first Monday In January following their
election.
"Sec. 4. There shall be held two
regular sessions of Congress, conven-
ing on the first Monday of January
each year.
"SEC. 8. This amendment shall not
take effect until after the 4th day of
March of the year 1925"
Senator Ashurst's joint resolution is
simply worded-transposed a little
chronologically his proposed amend
ment of the Constitution provides that
the electors chosen in November and
composing the Electoral College shall
second Monday in December and there
cast their votes; that the new Con-
gress elected in the previous Noyem-
Der shall meet on the first Monday in
January; that the messengers shall
bring the returns from the various
States to the President of the Senate
and file them before the first Monday
in January; that on the second Mon
day in January the new Congress, sit
ting in joint session, shall canvass
ne electoral vote and declare the re-
suit, and that on the third Monday
In January the President and Vice
President shall be inaugurated
Thus, If this amendment should be
adopted without changes, the presi-
dent elected in 1925 would take Office

congress would begin its work two

Simpler Inaugurations

Senator Borah says that he would
like to see an inauguration which
would cost the government only $40.
Thomas Jefferson's first Inaugural
tion may not have cost the Treasury
that much. Legend has it he rode
to the Capitol on horseback and then
tied the horse to a fence.
This horse -hitching legend has no
basis in fact. Jefferson walked to
the Capitol from nearby boarding
house. The official ceremony Of in
stalling him was simple and mex
pensive enough to please the most
ardent believer in the democratic
simplicity" which Jefferson preached
but personally practiced but little.
There is much, however, TO be said
in support Of Mr.. Borah's protest
against costly inauguration. Con-
gress is in mood to discourage
useless spending, and the March a
pageant at Washington is often un-
impressive and hardly in key with
the dignity Of the occasion.
Congress, of course. has little to
do with the popular features Of the
celebration. These are in the hands
Of the local inauguration committee,
which raises funds by subscriptions
and by selling seats in the parade
stands and tickets for the inaugural
ball and concerts 1t would be un-
gracious and impracticable to limit
unduly the District Of Columbia's s
quadxcnnial splurge. President Will
son, however, pared it down some
what by declining to attend an in
augural ball.
AS for the official part, the Senate
chamber is deplorably overcrowdcd
while the President, the President
elect, the Supreme Court and the
diplomatic corps witness the swear
ing in Of the Vice President. The

Valera, president Of the so-called
Irish Republic. is back in Ireland,
but to bargain probably rather than
to fight, for he took ship only when
peace whispers began.
These things all point in one d.
rection-namely, that both sides at
last realize that it is time to send
extremists to the rear and to find
common formula. With the British
government practically Offering any
terms that will not jeopardize it's
power Of defense and will reasonably
protect the Irish minority, it should
be possible to arrive at an honorable
settlement. Every wcll-wisher of
both Great Britain and Ireland will
greatly rejoice if the news comes
that the people of Ireland are no
longer to be ground between the
millstones of murder. and that an
issue which has tended to divide the
two great English-speaking nations
has been disposed of.

A Cup Returns

The doubles victory at Auckland
that brought the Davis Cup home
was rs sensationally sweeping as the
American victories in the singles.
Not one of the matches thus far
went to five sets. Despite the best
that Messrs. Brookes and Patterson
could do, the result was scarcely ever
in doubt.
We shall have to wait for more
thorough estimates of the play to
decide just how seriously off his
game Patterson was and how much
the added years Of Brookes had
slowed down his strokes. But there
is no possibility of discounting the
overwhelming victories of Tilden and
Johnston. With every allowance,
there can be no detracting from this
striking triumph won on alien courts,
after long voyage, against the best
Of the Younger players and the best
of the older players, the United
States excluded. The skill of Patter-
son cannot be questioned; he clearly
outranks the best in England
Brookes was the master of them all
and at least in doubles still ranks
with the best.
The truth is that the swift, hard
| hitting American game has at last
developed two great players of merit
so nearly equal that either may we'll
win championships against the other,
and of a rank to class with the great
players Of all tennis history. Both
are young, with well-rounded games
to hold them safe, and many years
of tennis before them. The outlook
for American tennis was never so
bright as to-day, following this bril-
liant victory for the best and sound
est Of our young players.

Pacifsts at War

The forces which hold thieves to-

the forces which drive the members
OF our intelligentsia apart. Let two

Just at the moment, when profes-
sional liberalism is at sadly low
ebb in America and most everybody
is too busy to be bothered by the day

the quarrel is particularly vocal.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Referring to The Tribune's srti-
Gle, "Sewility in the Navy" permit me
to indorse the comments of your corre-
spondent, Navy" who declares that
the names Of the "Great Admirals,"
who won this title by etacing them
selves in supporting Mr.. Daniels's dis
astrous policies. should be known, in
order that such conduct should not
cry stallixe into precedent"
The navy has always hated e"vilty;
it has proper idea az to what con-
stitutes naval greatness, and from per-
sonal Investigation I find that the gem
timent Of the service to-day strongly
condemns Mr.. Daniels's Great Admi-

duct Of the wal"

Up to the year 1920 no admiral in
our navy had been dubbed great" or
considered great, except as a result o,
distinguished service or personal gal

dering on -effacement, who would
place little value upon greatness that

the thrusting were done by Josephus

And the Farmers Wife

The California plan whereby
men of small means may become
independent farmers provides not
only for loans to prospective buy
ers, but for community settlements
and cooperative buying. Tracts of
land of 5000 to 5000 acres, pro-
viding farms for about four hundred
families, have already been popu-
lated. An engineer planned the
buildings and the stock was bought
in bulk by an expert from the State
Agricultural School. The dairy
herds to-day, it is said, are famed
throughout the state. Cooperative
selling, as we'll as buying, has
proved profitable.
This method, besides it's other adj
vantages, eliminates the isolation of
farm life, which as much as any
thing else is responsibl for the
drift to the cities. There is village
instead Of separated farmsteads.
Along the same line Secretary
Payne, in his annual report, urges
community settlement on farms Of
not more than forty acres
A comfortable civilization, except
for the telephone, has been long in
reaching the farms. Electric light,
gas, radiated heat and hot and cold
water have not yet arrived at the
farmhouse, and probably will not
until farm life is organized on a
new basis. Machinery has not done
as much to make the life attractive
as was expected. Work has been
made easier. but more Of it is
crowded into a day. There is still
little opportunity for the pleasure
demanded by young people, and the
farmers wife has remained a
, drudge, for the house comes last in
the list Of improvements.
There is some ground for the
grim humor in ths plea Of the Colo
rado farmer that law be passed
to permit farmers to have two
wives. And the woman who dis
agreed with him was not so far
wrong when she declared it should
be the other way round: the wife
! should have two husbands--one to
work in the fields, the other to help
around the house.

Official Prescription Blanks

TO the Editor OF The T -jbune.
through Your columns, on behalf Of
the people of this state, to a new ruling
given out from Albany by Mr.. Herries,
Commissioner Of Narcotic Drug Con
trol, and prominently published in q
New York newspaper. This ruling with
draws from doctors all unofficial pre-
scription blanks for administering
drugs and requires them to have official
blanks issued by the department. in
prescribing a narcotic.
The Commissioner holds it is princi-
pally through unofficial blanks that un-
scrupulous doctors are able to pass the
drugs to those with money enough to
pay for them. The ruling is made by
the Commissioner because he is con-
vinced that a majority of the despera-
does responsible for the crime wave in
New York City are drug addicts and
because he is determined to make il
CDl4ll
drugs.
No act OF lawlessness committed by
these desperadoes is in greater violation
o. the laws Of this state than this act
of the Commissioner of Narcotic Drug
Control. The unofficial blanks are dis
tinctly recogn.zed as necessary for
the legitimate prencribing of morphine
for the sick and suffering at the bedside
under the law creating the Commission
of Narcotic Drug Control. To apply the
same rules to them and to those wAo
prescribe for them that have been laid

The Lockwood Cleanup

Legislative committees operating
in this city have often plowed bar
rem ground Or plowed fruitful
ground barrenly. The Lockwood
committee has done neither. 1t
found an intrepid and fiery counsel
in Mr.. Untermyer. Its field was
fallow with abuses. It has rapidly
and adroitly uncovered the bur
rowlngs Of vast conspiracy to eX-
plot the public by "stabilizing"
building conditions--that is to say,
by embargoing all building except
that ON which the cost had been
artificially raised by the exactions
Of material men, constructors and
special handled labor organizations.
A fraternal union, all for one and
one for all at the expense of the
outsider, had been worked up in the
industries on which New Workers
depended to overcome the pinch of
the housing shortage. The city's
need was the opportunity Of those
who organized and interlockcd to ex-
tract an exceptional profit. That
costs were lifted by some mysterious
power and that prices were being
"equaized" so as to eliminate COM
petition was more than suspected.
But the public was unprepared for
the revelations wrung from non
plussed witnesses by Mr.. Inter
myers destructive and onlniscient
questioning.
Of the groups bro 5 ht into the
limelight and hurried into the courts
by Mr.. Untermyer, it is hard to say
which were the more rapacious or
the more regardless Of economic and
moral decencies. According to the
Lockwood testimony, Brindell fat
tened off the men in his union, as
well as off the builders who en-
ployed them. If so. he not only
joined in robbing the public, but be-
trayed the cause Of honest union
labor. But the material men and
| the builders also bespattered the
reputation Of their class. They lent
weight to the charge that business
men prevailingly put profits above
seH-respect and honor, even above
the law.
The investigation has already par

bund. But it will go further and
do more. The city looks to it hope

building and to give home construc-
ton on an honest and normal eco

ment as to the merits Of any par
