Taxing State Bonds.
State Rights and the Proposed Con.
stitutiOnal Amendment.

To THE New YORK HERALD: am en-
boldened to enter the discussion or the
proposition to tax the securities issued
by the States of the Union because OF
the apparent omission of mos I'M
portant element, namely. that the power
TO tax is not conferred on the United
States because the States never In
tended to give the power>;o destroy.
Legally 1t is recognized that when
once the power to tax is vested In a
government, it may extend to the point
of destruction. The States when they
confederated into a Union did so for
the purpose of defense and offense
against foreign enemies. as well as 10
advance trade and protect their citizens
from unjust encroachment. They never
contemplated the surrender OF their own
existence and ever reserved the power
their separate entities.
The proposition now favored would
be much more far reaching than merely
to tax the securities, and the trend
toward Capitalization would soon COM
plete the effacement Of the State. This
separate entity of the State has served
in many Instances as salutary check
to such encroachment. and 1t also brings
to the citizen a more intimate and sat-
isfactory service OF the governing body.
I believe it is one of the great nfiu-
ences which help to preserve truly
democratic government. To destroy it
would lead to Capitalization and prob
ably change In government.

URGES REORGANIZING
u. S. FOREIGN SERVICE

WASHINGTON, Nov 9.--Far reaching
reorganization Of the foreign service as
proposed in the bill pending In Con-
gress and presented by Representative
Rogers. Republican. Massachusetts, was
indorsed to-day by Secretary Hughes.
Post war conditions have rendered a
general betterment Of the present or
ganization so imperative" Mr.. Hughes
wrote Mr.. Rogers, that failure to- pro-
vide for reorganization along construc-
tive lines would be tantamount to retro
gression."
The principal features Of the original
Rorers bill were enumerated as follows;
Classiications of Ministers, amalgama-
ton of the diplomatic and consular SER
vices into single foreign service on an
interchangeable basis. representation al
-lowances, substitution of a corps of for
eign service pupils for the present corps
of consular assistants and a retirement
system.

the prizes to be won by the finest of
the familiar specimens or the newest
types. Gardeners have been tireless
in their patient efforts to change and
to improve the flower which has un-
dergone SO many transformations
through the years. The Chrysanthe-
mum Society of America has made a
list of three thousand varieties.
One of the blooms exhibited this
fall is named In honor of the Princess
NAGAKo, who is soon to marry the
Crown Prince of Japan. One special
reason why the blossom should have
this title is that no other country
has done so much to show It's appre-
citation of this flower of autumn as
Japan. The chrysanthemum has a
place, on the seal of the Japanese
Emperor, although more or less con-
ventionalized, and In this same form
it may be seen on other State SYM
bols. One of the medieval rulers
even set aside day for its special
veneration.
Yet the chrysanthemum, SO far back
in its history that the date is forgot
ten, came originally from China. OF
more interest to present admirers OF
the chrysanthemum is the fact that
England began cultivating the flower
generally in the early years of the
nineteenth century. In New England
much of the earlier cultivation of the
flower took place. There Is a rec
ord of an exhibition of the plants in
Boston as far back as 1880.
England helped to improve the hot
house flower in size and beauty, but
growers give to France the credit for
having developed the pompon, which
is the no less admired little sister
of the snowy, long petaled blossom.
There are prizes also for these
smaller, harder varieties which find
their place among the spectacular
exhibits submitted to the judges.

Next Congress May Lift Bar on Aliens
Administration Behind Proposal to Admit More De-

Special Dispatch 10 TIE NEw York HERALD

Special Dispatch TO TIE NEw York HERALD
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington. ID. c.. Nov. D.
An Administration proposal to mod
ify immigration restrictions to admit
larger number of desirable Immigrants
is expected I'm the next Congress.
The Cabinet is essentially agreed that
Industries of the United States In their
present cramped labor situation needs
more of the better classes of foreigners
to help American industry to get mass
production, and the only relief appears
to be a liberal extension of the 3 per
cent. limit now imposed on all countries.
Members of the Cabinet agreed that
the country faces a crisis because of the
labor shortage. They concluded that the
nation Is hampered In productive proc
esses by the restrictive attitude Of labor,
which has had the effect of forcing high
prices on the American people.
The Administration no longer will
srbmit to the tactics which labor has
employed In forestalling more liberal
immigration laws. 1t is said the Presi-
dent is ready TO reveal to Congress. nor
in the form OF message, but in confer
ences with certain of the leaders, the
view that the country now must have
the added help Of some Of the surplus
labor of Europe. Government trade ex-
perts say that high prices of commodi-
ties and materials in many lines are due
directly to the labor shortage
Republican leaders in sympathy with
the President on the matter viii. initiate
legislation which will broaden tho scope
of the present act In raising the per-
centage OF immigration it is expr cted
fao a,de ha y1a n n
sure the entry of only that class of i'm
migrants adaptable to work in indus
tries or on farms. Cabinet members
held the view that II Is possible so to
restrict immigration that the ,st!ftless
type of foreigner will be barred while
Industrious workmen OF good character
will be allowed to come In and obtain
employment.
The opposition OF organized labor is
expected, but 1t is not believed labor
leaders are strong enough to defeat a
plan which means greater output for
American industry and lower prices for
the average American consumer when
that is possible by strengthening the
labor force behind industry to give 1t
that impetus that 1t now needs to catch
ur with increasing demands for prod
ucts following postwar readjuAment.

The Humble Voice.

Some like the voice Of dancing waves
Upon a wide white shore.
Some like the wind among the pines.
And some the thunder's roar;
To some the voice OF singing birds
Is light and melody,
Some choose the whisper of old leaves
That drift down dreamily.
like the voice of common men
On common duties bent. g.
Who trade their little griefs and Joys
And reap brave content:
The voice of living lips that scorn
To trife with despair.
That take the beauty from plain toll
AS swallows take the air.
No speech with patient wisdom fraught
No flaming song 1 need
Give me the voice of common men
Who love the lives they lead.

The Lausanne Conference.

The Near East conference called to
meet at Lausanne is likely to open
next Monday. II was earlier believed
owing to the Turks attempt to scrap
the Mudania truce and their high
handed demand for the occupation of
Constantinople that the conference
would be either delayed or not held
at all. Great Britain asked for a
postponement until November 81 but
has apparently withdrawn the re-
quest at the wish of France and
Italy. Both of these nations see grave
peril in the existing tense situation
and fear that postponement will be
taken by the Turks as an act of hos
tility and precipitate the war which
the conference hopes to avert.
There is no doubt that in the pres
ent unity OF Europe on the Near East
KEMAL finds a condition which he did
not foresee when he left Angora for
his western conquest. The Turk at
European conferences always de-
pended upon q division of Powers to
react in his favor. This kept him in
Europe after the congresses of vi
emma and Berlin and he expected that
the differences between Great Britain
and France would continue until he
was reseated at Constantinople.
The evident fear now is that rather
than face a European accord the
Kemalist hotheads will attempt to
break through the neutral zone and
gain control of Constantinople and
the Turkish straits by force of arms
This is the situation to which Pre-
mier PoINcARE referred when he said
the French plainly fear there are
irrevocable incidents on the horizon.
Lord CuRzoN also referred to this
condition when he asked a postpone
ment Of the conference until after
the British elections. He declared
that in these circumstances the Gov
ernment could not bear the burden
alone but would have TO appeal tc
the country TO sustain II in its policy
of action and strengthen It "in the
defense of our honor and of our flag
and the peace of Europe"
In view OF these facts the Lau.
same conference promises to be the
most important of all attempts tC
settle the Near East question. Pre-
mier MUssoLrNI has said that he will
attend himself and not send a repre-
sentative. Premier PofNcARE will b,
represented by M. BoMPARD. former
Minister at Petrograd and Constan
tinople, and an authority upon Neal
East affairs. The Turkish delegation
which has already left Smyrna foi
Lausanne, is under the leadership o.
IsMET Pasha. KEMAJs representative
at the Mudania conference.
The Turkish delegation is charged
by the Assembly at Angora with an
unconditional adherence to a pro.
gram OF demands which the confer
ence is not likely to accept in its en-.
tirety. There is an indication thai
the program was drawn by the ex
tremists OF the Nationalist party and
with the assistance of Moscow, Will
which they are in strong sympathy
Among the demands are the restitu.
tion OF the Mosul region, aimed es-
pecially at British control in Mesopo-
tamia, and the readjustment of the
Turko-syrian frontier by which the

Michigan Breaks a Chain.

publican party was organized the
Democrats of Michigan have elected
United States Senator. The vic
tory of WOODBRIDGE N. FERRIS over
CHARLES f. TOWNSEND last Tuesday
broke a record of nearly seventy
years standing.
The last Democratic Senator in
Congress from Michigan was CHARLES
E. STUART, a man from Columbia
county, New York, who was one Of
the early settlers of the Michigan
wilderness, He was elected in Janu-
airy, 1853, and took his seat in the
following March. His colleague WAS
LEWIS CAss, that great Jackson
Democrat who was soldier, statesman
and administrator all in one.
A year after STUART's election
Michigan saw the formal launching
of the Republican party, when, on
July 6, 1854, convention of men
who represented the various bodies
opposing the extension Of slavery was
held at Jackson apd>formed State
organization known as the Republi-
can party. One Of the prime movers
in this was ZACH CHANDLER, and it
was the fiery, vigorous and very
capable ZACH who was chosen by the
Republicans to take CAss's seat at
Washington when the old warrior,
after twelve years in the Senate, left
it to become President BUcHANAN's
Secretary of State.
CHANDLER stayed inthe Senate for
nearly twenty years. Even his ora
torical attacks on McC' Ian, deliv-
cred in 1862, before tl..- General had
lost the confidence Of the people OF
the North. did not result in rebuke
from Michigan. CHANDLER's various
colleagues were less known to fame
than he: KINsLEY S. BINGHAM, JACOB
NJ. HOWARD, THOMAS w. FERRY and

CESAR BURROWS, whose leonine face
and powerful oratory had been ia

tives for many years before he was
elevated to the Senatorship; and
General RUSSELL A. ALGER. whose
long record OF public service was
olouded only by his unfortunate ad-
ministration of the War Department
in the Spanish War. Widely as
ALGER was criticized for his mistakes
Michigan remained faithful to him
and sent him to the Senate in 1902.
The last of the Michigan Senators
to be chosen by the Legislature was
WILLIAM ALDEN SMITH. The first TO
he elected directly by the people was
TOWNSEND, who was beaten this week
The second was TRUMAN II. NEw.

FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 10. 1922.
PresidenfHarding's Economy AK.

Some of the United States Treas
ury experts are saying that the Gov
erninent's expenditures should be got
down somewhat under three and a
balf billions of dollars. But President
HARDING says more than that. Be-
cause the Governments revenues are
estimated at not much better than
three billions Of dollars for the next
year he says that the national ex-
penditures must come down where
they will be nearer three billions of
dollars than three and half billions
of dollars.
With the sound business sense and
the great common sense that always
mark the man now in the White
House he knows that when the in
come you would like to have cannot
be made to flow in, the only business
like way to meet such situation is
to chop expenses with an ak. That
is what the President with his Bud
get Director is by way of doing. to
blCdl SuSA q III LAC OAly
manner that will make both ends
meet without heavier taxation, and ii
is safe to say that, barring unforeseen
emergencies or crises, he will come
pretty near to making both ends
meet.
But to get the Governments outgo
down to three billions of dollars a
year will be no small undertaking
when the interest and sinking fund
charges on the war debt alone call
for a billion OF dollars a year, the
rehabilitation and care of crippled
and sick soldiers call for half bill
lion of dollars year. and the army
and navy costs call for about three
quarters of a billion a year.
These four items may be Jumped
together as a war debt and war in
surance charge of two and a quarter
billions of dollars. 1t is not possible
to cut them out or to cut them down
noticeably; nobody would want to try.
So to hold the total expenditures
down to three billions of dollars
means that all the rest Of the Govern
ment departments and activities
would have to get along on about
three-quarters of billion of dollars.
Even as late as in the fiscal year
preceding the outbreak OF the war in
August, 1914, the Congress appro-
priations for the Governments spend
ings were approximately 100000, 600,
exclusive of the postal appropria-
tions.
The military establishment in that
year got only S94.266,145 for the
army; S140,71S.434 for the naval SER
vice; s1,O99,7S4, military academy,
and $5,2SS, ,250. forts and fortifications,
or a matter Of less than a quarter OF
billion of dollars.
II the President therefore succeeds
in chopping the Governments spend
ings 10 three billions of dollars, with
two md a quarter billions Of that
sun .ccounted for by wax debt and
war insurance charges, he will not
be very far with the controllable
spendings from the peace time basis
OF before the war, Notwithstanding
the higher costs of everything the
Government buys or does. And for
him to achieve such an extraordinary
result as that within two years after
becoming Chief Executive will fur
ther testify to the now generally rec
ognized fact that WARREN G. HAIR
