Washington, Oct. 20-Thomas Riley Marshall, former Vice President of the United States, now back in governmental har- ness as a member of the coal fact finding commission after vacation since March 4. 1921. Is still looking for that good five cent cigar.''
 ''I never have found it, sighed the Sage of the Wabash today. f.I've travelled lots, of miles and probably had a million cigars sent me since I remarked that what this country needed was a good five cent cigar, but 1t is still eIusive.''
 The former Vice President pulled thoughtfuny on cigar that cost fifteen cents.
 ''You lnow,' he said, ''that re- mark of mine has been wholly misinterpreted.
 'What meant by saying tha. this country needed was & good five cent cigar was this: We, all of us, should quit living so high.S

GOOD WILL VOTE FALLING SHORT
 OF 100000 BALLOTS NEEDED TO
 SEND LOCAL DELEGATE TO FRANCE
STANDING OF CANDIDATES

One thousand votesl That was the | contribution made today by friends of Isabel Rogan in the Good Will
 Election! That is the way to pile them up!
 Those 1000 votes not only keep Miss Rogan in the lead in the stand ing of candidates but prove that Bridgeport folks are waking up to the fact the contest is drawing to a close. Otherwise, there was little change to- day in the standing of candidates. Evelyn Mathieson continues in second
 place and SoHkie D. Stokes acquired
 some additionhSNotes
 But it is "a Var, far cry from the vote so far cast to the 100, 900 votes
 which the American Committee for the Reha biliation of Devastated France has set for the minimum And the time grows short. Remember, the voting ends next Tuesday at noon and between now and that time many, many votes are needed to insure the where this c1Iys representatives may
 see for themselves what American aid has accomplished there.
 This is beautiful sunny October
 day. A day that would show in
 what a wonderful country we live and
 to open our hearts to any appeal brought before us at the moment from those who are in need. It is also a day that should make the people re-
 alize what great privilege it is to be able to give happiness.
 There is such an opportunity right here now for the people of Bridge port. There are six candidates who
 are working in the Good Will Election who are all keenly anxious to win out
 and get the trip to France with the
 other members of a Good Will Dele

 carry a message of hope to those in
 the war wrecked regions who are
 waiting for the second party of Good

 people have christened the Good Will
 Delegatiou} to come.
 The election closes on Tuesday, the
 24th, at noon, and it will be too bad if Bridgeport fails to put over the
 election with the same spirit shown
 by the other cities throughout the country.

PASS WHITE HOUSE
POLICE SHIFT BILL
Force to Come Directly, In.

New Law.
The House passed late yesterday the

The House passed late yesterday the
bill to put the White House police
force directly under the President. AS
the Senate had already passed this
measure 1t now goes to the President
for his signature.
The. police now stationed at the
White House are under Jurisdiction of
the metropolitan police force, and the
effect of the new legislation will be to
add thirty three men to the metro
politan police force for duty in
Washington. 1t is probable that
the men now stationed at the
White House and grounds will be
mustered into the new White House
police force, thus allowing thirty
three men to be added to the metro
politap force for duty in the various
police precincts about the capital.
Until recently there were fifty four
metropolitan policemen in the White
House detail. 1t is expected that
Lieut.. Col c. o. Sheriff., engineer Of
fcer in charge of public buildings and
grounds. who is military aide to the
President, will be put in command of
the new White House police force.
The measure as passed provides for
the same pay and retirement allow
ances and relief provisions to the
members of the new force as for the
metropolitan police force.
When this new legislation becomes
a law there will be five distinct police
forces working in Washington-the
metropolitan. the park police, the
Capitol police. the White House police
and the guards for the various gov
ernment buildings.

Chicago in 1894 may serve to illus
trate the formula which may have to
be followed in the present strike. In
der date of July 3, 1894. the United
States marshal at Chicago wired:
when the injunction was granted
yesterday a mob of from two to three
thousand held possession of a point
in the city near the crossing of the
Rock Island by other roads, where
they had already ditched a mail train
and prevented the passing of any
trains whether mail or otherwise
read the injunction writ to this mob
and commanded them to disperse. The
reading of the writ met with no re-
sponSe except jeerS and hoots.
On the same day Edwin Walker,
special attorney for the government,
wired from Chicago:
"1 am advised that Debs himself
gave directions that the writs of in
junction and process of court should
be utterly ignored. 1t is impossible
for me at present to make sufficient
proof of this fact for the support of
"A motion for commitment for con-
tempt. but I believe that in a few
days / will be in possession of suffi-
cient evidence, and if | succeed in
this Debs and the others will be sent
to Jail for contempt. and will remain
there until the strike is ended"
Two days later Mr.. Walker wired
"We have now sufficient evidence
at hand for Indictment of Debs and
all the leaders of the association for
conspiracy. Several indictments will
be returned and / am of the opinion
that the bail required of the defend
ants will be SO large in the aggre-
gate that they will not be able 10
give satisfactory security. We shall
be able to show that this conspiracy
has extended over-the entire north
west, as well as the Pacific coast, as
we'll as through Michigan, Indiana
and Ohio, and 1 firmly believe that
the result of these trials and the pun
ishment of the leaders will be SO Sc
rious that a general strike upon any
railroad will not again occur for a
series of years. / assume, of course
that Congress will not by legislation
nut further limitations upon the
jurisdiction of the federal courts
but, on the contrary. sincerely hope
this jurisdiction will be strengthen.
ed rather than impaired
But Mr., Walkers hopes were no,
fulfilled. Congress did pass the
Clayton act exempting labor unions
from prosecution under the Sherman
antitrust law and at the end o1
twenty-eig years big strike has
come again Will history repeat
itself and the strike be ended by
court injunction? 1t was in 1894.
