FOR THE ILLEGITIMATE CHILD.

Legislation to provide square deal Tor the lIIe- gmate child will be pushed when Congress convenes again Under the proposed the obligations for the education support of children will be placed upon both parents. The tendency prevailing to throw the burden upon the public and the mother and let the father go free will receive needed check.
 if the law goes through the government will stand the mother child to insure that the father acknowledges and fufs his responsibility for the support and education of the child during it's years of dependency Failure pay money that purpose fixed by the court will be considered a crm- inal ofense and punished
 This is activity in the right direction It sets premium upon illicit love- It offers the innocent child a chance to which he is entitled By the fact that it throws responsibility it belongs it may tend lessen the number of of the sort.

Lame Duck Recruits Washington Problem;
 President Perplexed
By GEORGE E. HOLMES,

i by dlOft1E iL. fiOl1M EGo International News Service Staff
 Correspondent.
 Washington. Oct. GA burning question in Washington these au- tumnal days, when Congress is out on the political firing line, is what disposition President Harding will make of his lame duck" problem when the final curtain drops on the political show next November '.
 The Lame Duck Brigade already has a number of recruits-Senators and Representatives whose consti- tuencies have turned them down in the primaries after years of service in Washington--and it is readily agreed that the numbers will be enhanced when the chill winds of voters displeasure waits across the country next November.
 If President Harding follows pre- cedent, jobs will be found for many of them, and the political tongues of the capital already are picking out berths.

town of 2,50O population. it was said. R. H. Hogge was the inde- pendent or citizens candidate. Hen " Sullens was the Democratic nom inee for constable.
 Election judges were Thomas Hartley, G. W. Smith and William Walker. Mir. Smith went home about 2:3O o'clock in the afternoon, little under the weather" MT. Dudley said Wash Shockley was appointed in his place. The clerks included Miron Sullens and Ike Me Carty.
 The judges "were too drunk to hold the election, according 10 MT. Dudley.
 "I understand they left the bal lot box in the bank vault that night" Mir. Dudley said "1he re- pert is that about 75 citizens went to the bank where Assistant Cashier Mckinney was working. About half a dozen men, masked with handker- chiefs, threw their guns on the cashier and compelled him to let them in. The vault was open and therein they found the ballot box. don't know wno took it.
 Tt was taken to my store by some person or persons whose iden- tity I do not know. My under standing is that the citizens were going to call in the judges and have them count the ballots in the pres once of committee of Independents who were supporting MT Hoggc for constable,
 "P. D. Smith and Henry Higgins, deputy sheriffs. came to my store and demanded the ballot box that night l told them I knew ballot box was in the store, but I wouldn't take the responsibility of turning it over to them.
 Sheriff Shelton came over yes terday morning, but there was no display of guns and no line up of citizens. He was in my store and we talked the matter over with him. We had tried Wednesday to get all the judges together so we could count the ballots, but never were able to corral all three at one time.
 We told the sheriff that we pre- ferred to discuss the matter di- rect with Cecil Shane, states attor- ney, and whatever course he sug- gested we would abide therein. This satisfied the sheriff. He said it was fair enough, and the agree ment was that we would just con slider the warrants he had then as having been served.
 ''We got in touch with MT. Shane and went to Jonesboro last night and talked over the matter with him. Of course, we learned today that the new informations issued at Marked Tree were being served. l was out of town today and haven't been served. But no resistance is being offered. Those arrested simply will make bond and await further devel- 0pments."
 Who was elected constable?" Mir. Dudley was asked.
 Don't know" he replied. No body ever counted the ballots yet.
 Looks like Hogge, though,' he added, with a laugh
 The committee calling on MT. l ~
 Shane included MT. Dudley, J. Lee Wright, N. 0. Whitlateh and pr. George o. Campbell.
 Among the II others for whom warrants were issued yesterday at Marked Tree were ]. A. Taylor, feed store proprietor; Morris Mckinney, clerk; Waldron Smith, Robert Mar tn, merchant; Loyce Young, D. V. Fox, Ed Dockery, c. A. Green, clerk; w. M. Thompson, lumberman; Charles Kemp and w. w. Yopp, Frisco depot agent.

PROMINENT BUSINESS MEN
 PLACED UNDER ARREST ON
 ELECTION VIOLATION CHARGES

more than six months.
 The informations were issued be- fore Justice Henry Nolley at the in stance of Cecil Shane, states at torney in this judicial district. They were turned over to Sheriff w. D. Shelton for service.
 This batch of wholesale warrants follows a lurid report of an election riot at Trumann last Tuesday night when about 75 armed men are said to have overpowered the assistant cashier of the bank in Willis town ship and forcibly removed the ballot box from the vault and sped away with it.
 About half a dozen were said tu have actually entered the bank vault and they wore handkerchiefs over their faces.
 The ballot box is still missing, it was reported here, and the result of the election at Trumann con- tinues in doubt.
 According to information received here yesterday morning, the missing ballot box, following the raid on the bank, was removed to the store of Allie Dudley where "a commit- tee of citizens" proceeded 10 count the votes. This committee, it was said, refused to turn over the box to the proper election officers.
 Sheriff Shelton, il was said, ob- tained warrants and when he at tempted to serve them about 30 citizens were lined up in front of DudIey's store. Half a dozen rifles were leaned up against the side of the store while some of the citizens carried shotguns.
 MT Dudley was said to have act ed as spokesman for the citizens. The sheriff was told that they would not be arrested and he could take his warrants and go to h-l with them.'
 Whereupon Sheriff Shelton ad- vised them that he wanted no trou- ble, and did not desire to kill any body. He would give them time to reconsider and act with some sense. !" That later he would call on them again and then they would submit to arrest or he would use neces- sary means to take them.
 A subcommittee of the "citizens committee called on States At torney. They informed him they would follow any suggestion he made.
 Yesterday morning he authorized issuance of the information here by Justice Nolley.
 The citizens committee" was said to have opposed the election of the regular" Democratic nom inee for constable in Willis Town ship.

A RADIO ACHIEVEMENT.

A radio program of songs, band music and speeches sent out from department store in Newark, N. J., heard with fair degree clarity in the Sefridge department store in London, than 5000 miles away. The most notable thing about the achievement that the program delivered with only the regular radio equipment, without high-grade sories extra such ordinarily would be used for ambitious experiment.
 Sir Thomas Lpton, visiting in America ing in the program spoke of the marking period of closer communication and better under standing than between the two great English speaking nations.
 But London does mark the limits of the radio nor of the ether. This is just foretaste of what will be accomplished And what with highway systems opening up all over the world and air traffic and radio conquerng the natural barriers which have held the world apart bred misunderstandngs and enemies, the time is far off when governmental policies, world politics laws will have to follow the trend toward unity instead of holding out for indvidualism which already is a lost cause

The most conspicuous member of the famous brigade now in wash ington is Senator Harry s. New, ot Indiana, who was defeated in the Indiana primaries by Albert Jere- miah Beyeridge.
 Because it is known that Presi- dent Harding tried to get Senator New, his close personal friend, into his cabinet the gossips have been busy selecting a cabinet berth fol the Hoosier statesman now that ht has been defeated for renomination
 President Harding offered Sena tor New the Post Office Depart ment during the cabinet-picking days in Florida that preceded his inauguration. and the Senator's at tachment for the Senate was strong CT than his desire to be Postmaster General.
 So strong have been the rumor lthat Senator New is headed for thu Post Office Department that the! have given rise to a story that thu present Postmaster-General, Huber l Work, accepted the post when Will II. Hays resigned with the under standing that he would give way t Senator New should the occasion arise that News services could b' utilized.
 This story, however, like so man! | of similar kind that continuall float about the corridors of th' capitol cannot be confirmed.

Still another prominent Lame Duck is Representative Phillip P. Campbell, of Kansas, for twenty years a member of Congress and a Republican stalwart in the House. Like New and McCumbor, Campbell fell victim this year to the primary scythe, and because of his long service in the Republican ranks in the House the belief prevails in Washington that he will be given an appointment of some kind that will keep him in public life.
 Campbell is one of the sharpest parliamontarians in the House. Through long service and flair for parliamentary procedure he rose to the chairmanship of the power ful Rules Committee, and he was considered 9 likely candidate for Republican leader of the sixty- eighth Congress prieg to hi1 defeat in the primaries

Close friends of Senator New as sert that a cabinet berth has no mere attraction for him now than it had in February of 1921.
 The Indiana Senator is one of the keenest outdoor men in Washing ton public life. He is an ardent fisherman and an even more en- thusiastic hunter, and spends a part of every year in the lake country of Michigan, away from politics and the tinsel of Washing ton.

Another prominent Lame Duck is Senator Porter J. McCumber, of North Dakota, co-author of the new tariff act and of the now de- funct soldiers bonus bill Senator McCumber has been a Republican wheel-horse in the Senate for twen- ty-four years, and the impression prevails that no will not at this late date return to the humdrum practice of law in his home state.
 Because of his familiarity with fiscal legislation the Warwicks of the capital have generally picked business berth for the blond North Dakotan. His name has been mentioned for the chairmanship of the Tariff Commission, which will have much to do with the admins tration of the law which he was principally instrumental in putting on the statute books.
