Endorses Mr.. Davis.
To the Editor. The Washington Herald:

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
Believing that the salvation OF
our government depends upon its
being managed and engineered by
progressive and far-sighted bust
ness men, ] feel il no less than
my plain duty TO indorse to your
readers of Virginia former Governor
westmoriand Davis for U. S. Senate.
l have observed with pleasure TO
myself, and with greater respect
for that old State. the laudale ad-
ministration Mr.. Davis gave Nir-
ginia as governor.
II seems to me that the high
points OF his achievements are
monuments in his creation Of the
State Budget and his reorganiza-
ton OF the State penitentiary q
move that was a big step toward
the future good road program of
the who's State. His efficient, sane
and clear-cut business manage
ment of State affairs has been COM
mended by government experts on
a number OF occasions.
The safest way toward progress
politically In Virginia is to throw
out the old machine that has
dominated us TO no good advantage.
and give us former Governor Davis
who will represent all of the people
of the State.

Naming the Green Monkey.

protest against such an outrage

"And the Only One in Step

To the Editor The Washington Herald:
The tirade of c. C. Degman in
today's Herald reminds me very
much Of the story Of the old woman
who was watching a company Of
soldiers on parade. Her son was a
member of the company and as his
platoon passed by the old woman
clapped her hands and said. they're
all out of step but John"
Mr.. Degman ,n his second para
graph. says in effect: Anyone who
disagrees with me possesses a
small mind and is devoid OF reason

does not think he has a corner on
the wisdom OF our nation. He
weakens his entire argument when
ele flies of on this tangent. II re-
minds one of small boy who

Saving the Animals.

THE PAN-PACIFIC UNION appeals for the
i preservation of some of the largest animal
species in the world which now in danger of
becoming extinct-creatures like the South Sea
otter. for example which is dying away rapidly.
The society considers this matter of conse-
quence to the United States government and calls
attention to some of the creatures which have been
lost to the world-even within the memory of men
now living. Particular attention is given to the
sea COW, which used to inhabit the Alaskan straits
until it was killed off by Russian hunters.
1t is, of course waste to allow any form of
i've to completely disappear AS the appeal states:
Even one rattlesnake should be left alive for the
benefit of the future"
There is doubtless considerable ground for this
campaign. 1t must be remembered that America
usually starts work at the last minute when some
OF her animal species already have one foot in the
grave of the mammoth and the mastodon. Such
was the case of the bison-now saved fortunately
by energetic efforts. Such was the case of the
passenger pigeon, which has disappeared
