Memory.

A joke is being told on an absent
minded eastern professor. He was TAX
ing some students to the country to
study rocks. AT the station he said,
1--WE haven't a watch. Wen need II
or we'll miss the train back. John,
run home and get mlne.'
"Have l time before the train
comes?' John asked.
Yes" said the professor, pulling
out his watch, you have about 10
minutes"

FA01 ff4eSe Dist TIctS LATER tHefe seemed
to be q change of mind in some parts of
the country about the bill. and today
the Republican majority believes that
it can get sufficient support for this
meas Te to cur its enactment. But
only the most cheerful members think
thar the law will be written on the
statute books before the summer
WaDeS.
An official of an agricultural organl-
"a on recently has told the joint house
and senate committee which has been
holding hen rings on the measure that
the farmers Of the country are op-
posed to it. Some of the friends of the
bill say this official does not represent
the ma jority agricul tural opinion. OF
course this remains to be proved and,
as things are now, there must be a
clearing up of the situation before the
majority In congress will attempt to
speed the measure on its passage.
People Would Pay, of Course.
OF course, If a subsidy bill is voted,
the people must pay money to secure
the end sought, that of making not
only q self-supporting but a profit
earning American merchant marine.
Taxation Will be Increased unquestion-
ably, but the argument is that the null
tlpl of Int rkets for American
goods and the consequent increase In
Am erican manufa curing and agricul-
tural activities will more than pay for
the dbl tlonal taxes. This cheerful way
of looking at it is called by the op-
ponents of the ID easure "a smile over a
miSund ers tai ding Of facts"
The best thing for a man who wants
to know today is to read the report
submitted TO the President by the ship
ping board and then to read the re-
ports Of the hea rings which the joint
committee of the two houses of N
gress has been holding. Both sides of
the con trOVerSy then can be learned in
detail and If a man has something of
the Judicial in his makeup he probably
can determine which side he thinks is
right,
In the bill which is before congress
there Is a provision that shippers of
goods which are to be carried under
the American flag are to be allowed in
come tax deductions equal to 5 per
cent Of the freights on the merchan-
disc which Is so shipped. The oppo-
nents Of the measure say that this
looks good, but, as one rather bitter
antagonist Of the legislation has said,
1t Is merely getting money from Peter
70 pay a bill to Paul.

OF the Democratic and Republican
campaign committees for vigorous

Naturally the Republican campaign

paign committee was not o~VerWOrked,
for apparently Doctor FesS believed
an overwhelming victory vas to come
to his party and that undue labor was
unnecessary. Today, however, the
viewpoint seems to be somewhat diff
ferent. The Republicans will leave
nothing undone to hold congress and
the Democrats will leave nothing n

President Harding, within the limits of
the prophecies of his position. will
give every assistance that he can give
in the campaign for the reelection
of a Republican congress. 1t is ex-
pected that Woodrow Wilson will do
what he can in behalf of Democracy's
cause in the fight.
In congress today the Democrats
are using every piece of legislation
proposed by the Republicans as a sub
ject for criticism and fer somewhat
extended discussion. especially on the
floor of the senat where time is a
senator's own. The Democrats still
t~elieve, apparently, that they have
more than Il fair chance next fall to
reduce materially the Republican
majority in the senate and perhaps to
capture the house.
Some time ago it vas intimated that
the leading Republicans of the So
called old school would not be over
hearty in their support of any candi-
dates who in the primaries had sue
ceeded in defeating for nomination
men who had maintained through the
years a so-called Republican regu-
larity. Now this rllmor is denied and
it is said that the President will insist
that even if men of his own trend of
thought had not been successful in
securing nominations. every support
must be given the successful ones in
order to maintain a Republican ma
jority in congress.
Budget Figures Disputed.
There is not a Republican or a
Democratic senator or representative
in congress who has not been coached
directly or indirectly by the members
of the national committees and the
congressional campaign committees as
to methods and means for the finding
of seemingly weak points in the
enemy's armor. Senator Underwood,
the leader of the Democrats in the
senate, has taken it on himself to
attack the Republican claims for
economic legislation and has en-
deayored to show that the opposition
party's tendencies are spendthrift
rather than saving.
The budget has broken into politics.
Republican congressman claim that
the figures which show saving are true
to fact, while the Democrats say that
the figures have been juggled. PLAINLY
deceptive" were the words that Repre-
sentative Byrne. ranking Democrat
of the house appropriations commit
tee, used to present his party's atti-
tude toward President Harding's letter
and Director Dawes report on the
budget.
The budget, the bonus, the tariff,
and virtually everything else of legis-
lative or administrative size which the
Republicans depend upon as a bull
wark of defense and, in q way, of
offense during the coming campaign,
are subjects of attack daily in both
houses of congress by the Democratic
foe. The Republicans stand 20 the de-
Tense of everything that they have
done or are promising to do, and the
hourly demonstration is one of give
and take, and the controversy is not
embarrassing to hear and to watch.

PRINCIPLES OF WIRELESS TRANSMISSION

Before attempting to explain the functions and tile principles of the radio
telephones o. describing how to make, use and operate them, il is necessary
to understand something of the underlying principles and fundamental laws
of wireless transmission.
1t is not however, necessary to enter into a long discussions o the theories
and principles of electricity or physics which enter into the subject, but
merely to illustrate and make clear a few important and salient laws, causes
and results which make the transmission of sounds possible without the use
of wires between the sending and receiving insruma atR9#m4y ~ sASkE4

WASHINGTON. - Republican members
of the house committee on merchant
marine and fisheries and of the senate
commerce committee have told Presi-
dent Harding that an attempt will be
ma de 10 put twin propellors on the ship
subsidy bill in order that it may be
speeded on its way through congress.
Such promises as these have been
heard before in Washington, and it
perhaps is a fairly safe wager that the
subsidy measure will not break speed
limits on its attempted voyage through
a legislative ocean beset with rocks
and sand bars.
This does not mean that a subsidy
Will not be voted. 1t seems to be con-
coded generally by legislators of both
parties that the American merchant
marine cannot be made successful un-
less a government subsidy shall be
granted, but the opponents of the
inca sure say a weak merchant marine,
or no merchant marine at all, will be
better than one supported by public
funds
1t Is true that there is not much pulls
ing enthusiasm today among the men,
bers of the majority in house and SEN
ate over subsidy legislation, but, never
theless, the belief seems to be that
such a measure will pass some time be-
fore the present congress goes to its
death OF March fourth of next year..
