HACKMEN TESTIFY
EMO GAVE NO TIPS
Saratoga Witnesses Used by
Contestants to Show He
Failed Mentally.

Testimony to the effect that Amos F.
Emo. whose reIatives are trying to break
the will by which he disposed of a
$13.000,000 estate, was never so feeble
in his mind that he could not remember
about the change Of SIS bill. was read
to the jury yesterday in the Surrogate's
Court which Is trying the question of
whether he had testamentary capacity
at the time he signed his will.
Part of the testimony read yesterday
was that of three liverymen who used
to drive Emo about Saratoga in 1915.
and their stories were offered to show
that he was falling metally then. Henry
Phillips's testimony was that Emo had
fallen into less fastidious habit Of
dress than in previous summers. sat In
the rear seat of the carriage and talked to
himself. Phillips remembered very
clearly that<this aged fare was careful
about not overpaying for his rides.
He used to tell me to drive in one
direction, and after I had proceeded a
short distance, according to instructions.
he would change his orders and tell me
to drive somewhere else. But he always
seemed able to keep track Of what his
ride was costing.
II used to charge So an hour, and one
day after we had been out two hours he
handed me q IS bill and said not to
bother about the change. II thought he
meant to give me the extra 81 for tip
and thanked him. but the next day when
we went out again he only stayed an
hour and then handed me- dollar with
the words, You owe me a dollar from
yesterday"
Schuyler Steinberg. another hackman
said:
zone day after ] had driven Mr.. Emo
I found a 20 cent piece on the seat where
he had been and supposed he had left 1t
for present for me. SO when ] drove
him again l thanked him and he said:
oh, did leave that quarter here? Well,
as long as you found 1t you can take 1t
off the bill instead of giving It to rne. :"
Harry McCahen remembered this
''It used to interest me a good deal the
way he kept track Of time and money.
Sometimes he would pay me for an hour
or more when we started, and IL he tired
of the drive and went home before the
time was up he always noted If there
were a half hour or fifteen minutes, or
even ten minutes. coming to him and
made me add 1t to the next days ride"
Major Marcus c. Daugherty. veteran
Of the civil war, said at the time Emo
made his will he was distinctly in fall
ing health. both bodily and mental.
The trial will be continued to-day.

SHIP SUBSIDY.

One Of the ableSt speeches that
has been made on the Ship Subsidy
Dill, or perhaps, will be made. is
That of Representative Ewin Davis
lDem. Tenn.) who has made an cx-
hauStlve study of the subject and
has stated most of the objections TO
The pending bill. Some of these OBJ
lectI0nS arc as follows: The bill
provides for the disposal of S3.OUO,-
uoo,0O0 worth of merchant shiDs 10
private corporations for about 5000
"o0.0OO. together with a loan of
HlZo,OoO.OOO to rccOnditiOn thc

inc persons to whom We practically
give the ships against loss i'm their

ing the Shipping Board to make a

erS' inc bill does not provide for
any report or accounting TO be made
Al any time to the President or Com
Rrcss of to anybody else. The bill
eliminates the Army and Navy trans

1lmated that this would yield the
private ship owners $1,000, 600 y
year, S5,O00,000 of which would no
profit. 1t is argued by the propo-
ncntS Of the bill that this subsidy
is necessary in order that American
merchant ships amy compete will,

cited a report of the Commissioner
Of Navigation to show that the COM

EDUCATION FOR DEMOCRACY,

The tests by which higher cduca-
ton in the United States can meet
the legitimate demands of dcmoc-
racy were outlined recently by DR..
Henry w. Holmes, Dean of the Har-
ward University Graduate School of
Education in addressing the convcn
ton of the National Education as
sociation.
The college, he asserted, will
meet these demands, first, if MANY
types of education can be provided;
second, if the economic bar can be
lowered; and third, if selection can
be made without discrimination in
favor of those of any particular
type of mind.
"Dcmocracy," said the SPEAKER
Requires OF education more than
a mere defense against the evils of
illlteracy. 1t demands the develop
ment of positive Loyalty to common
Ideals that are understood and free
~ adhered to. Does this mean that
the common resources must be used
10 give every man and woman n
college education?
Mental and educational tests
snow mat there arc limits beyond
which it is improbable to educate
many thousand boys and girls in
inc schools as they are now con-
Stltuled. On the other hand. high
er education may be given with
great profit to many who do not re-
ccivc it. There is an economic &C.
lcctlon at work which the COLLEGES.
even those maintained by the State,
cannot wholly overcome: but nj
least they ought to countcract if,
ms is a problem in the admini,tra-
lion of public funds and private
bencfactions for the education or
those who lack The means TO SIN.
port themselves through college. but
nave the ability to meet the intellcc-
tual standards in order TO receive
greater numbers.
The last thing the colleges ought
to do is to lowe intellectual stand
ards in order to receive greater
numbers.
1t is a mistaken policy, DR..
hoimeS asserted, which insists that
cducation of collegiate grade shall
be open only to chose of bookish
mind" There is probably basic
factor of general intelligence. he
continued, without which no
course of collegiate grade can be
successfully undertaken, but il is
doubtful if our psychological exam
nations really distinguish and test
this factor"

TIMELY.

An assault. ON The fiscal poiicv OF
the administration and the lcyiSla-
tive program of the majority in
Congress was recently made in the
Senate by Senator Borah. Republic
can. of Idaho. He declared the gov
eminent had failed. except in Il
most limited degree, 10 relieve the
burdens Of the people and thai
there was ahead Il program. which
would add to those burdens, not
only millions, but billions OF dol
lars.
In that program, Senator Borah
named the soldiers bonus, which
he calculated would cost from
S4,0O0,OOO TO $6,0OO,000; the ship
subsidy bill, which he said would
cost from S5O.00O,0O0 to 500, O0O.-
600 Il year, while at the same time
relieving some special classes of Il
large part of their taxes: the pro-
posed S3.000.000 loan to Liberia.
and the bill to create % additional
federal Judges.
"Ihc fact is" said Senator Borah.
That the constant increase in GOV
eminent expenditures has reached
Inc point where it has gotten on the
pubic nerve. and the people of the
country arc beginning TO manifest
II IN different wayS-Somctimcs i'm
the ballot box. sometimes i'm strikes
sometimes in riots and bloodShcd.
and the first and prime duty of a
party, which has the future of this
country in It's charge. is at ali haz-
ards to refrain from increasing cx-
pcnditurcS. and if possible to de-
crease them.
'lf We judge the future by the
past, we now have an Indebtedness
which it will take us more than t.
600 years to lift, to say nothing Of
The constant increasing burden in
The way of increased taxes from
year to year, by reason of the in :
creased budgets. and it is proposed
in addition to that, which we al
ready have to lay out of hand an
extra burden of from $4,000, 1000 to
S6,O00,00O, which it will take us
more than $50 years to pay off.
The time may come, and, in nv
OPINION, IT is very likely to come
when the country will have to stand
at it were, at the Marine on this
question of preserving financial
civilization. The time NAV come
when our reserve, economic and IL
nancial, will have TO be called uDon
as our reserve of man power was
called upon in 1917, and it be-
hooves the American people and the
American Congress to prepare for
that, as we would be prepared for
the great conflict which confronted
us in 1917.
The nation, which will lead in
, the future, which will control and
dominate will not be the nation of
armies, not the nation of navics.
but the nation of economic power.
OF prosperity al home, of fiancial
reserve, OF means to take care of
these things, and ii bchooves us,
therefore, not only by reason of the
call, which will be made upon us
here in this country, but for the
sake OF our country and its peoples
as well.
