when he attacked the supreme

yention Of the American Federation

mature consideration added to their
siguiAcance In Wow Of the fact that
I he essays to succeed himself in
next autumn's elections. In conse-
quence the newspapers seem con-
WINGED that the reception which his
doctrine received from union rep
resentatives shows a radical trend
that must be combatted.
"LaFollette's attack on the pow.
er of the supreme court must be
considered in the light Of the pres
ent day tendency toward radical.

Z Install your own stop signal
Z It's simple, requires . knowledge
Of only the elements Of, electricity
and 10 easy to attach to the car.
The principle Of operation 10 sim
pie merely closing Of an electric
Circuit through depression Of the
brake pedal. Many intricate stop
signal systems, with all sorts Of re-
sistance, relays and special lamps,
are being sold. But they perform
no better than the simplest signal.
In fact, some automobile maqufac-
tufers discourage their use because
their wiring is complicated and
they 'eat mp" more battery current
than their purpose justfnes.
Materials.
All that is needed for an ordinary
stop signal connection are two
metal contacts below the brake ped
nj, q 2-cancle-power lamp for the
dash. a 21-candle-power lamp for
the rear signal, an old red-glass
oil lamp and the necessary wire.
The diagram shows how the con-
nections should be made. One side
Of the battery and one side Of the
signal lamp are grounded to the
chassis to complete the circuit.
From the other sides they are con-
nected in series through the brake
pedal. the lamp to the pedal direct,
and the battery to the contact which
is touched when the pedal is de-
pressed.
The dash indicator usually uses
up SO much current that it is best
to connect 1t so that it will glow
only when the pedal is first de-
pressed and will go out when the
foot is pushed down further.
Double Contact,
This is accomplished by making
a double contact and connectin9
the dash indicator in series with
the lamp. When the pedal is de-
pressed from the free position at 1
to 2, the dash indicator is lighted,
but the rear signal is still dark.
This is because the indicator uses
up nearly all the voltage for the
lamps.

most severely and some at least
declare that the offenders should
be eliminated entirely from the
navy.
1t is not especially the case of
Kaplan, now closed, that interests
the Chicago Post, but it points out
that lit is high time that those in
this country who are guilty of SIM
liar demonstrations should be made
to realize that they are living in
the United States Of America and
not in Russia. There is altogether
too much readiness on the part OF
few to vent their petty religious
and racial prejudices."
And there is wonder on the part
Of the Lansing journal whether it
is not a fact that there must be
something wrong in . national in
stitution which permits the iHcul-
cation of such ideas. The people
are spending large sums on the
education Of their future naval Of
ficers and this is being wasted il
they are not being trained to un-
derstand American freedom and
equality"
Applying this argument. the
Dayton News insists that here in
America no man must be discrim-
mated against because Of race,
creed or previous circumstances.
II our democracy is SO impotent, or
rather so flimsy a thing as some
would have us believe, 1t is time
for serious consideration of our
future as a race" Which leads the
Springfield News to say that "As-
sistant Secretary of War Theodore
Roosevelt, Jr.. quite properly rep
