A Campaign Managers Job.
Chairman Hull has taken a leaf c

Chairman Hull has taken a leaf out
of former Chairman Hays book.
When Mr.. Hays assumed the duties
Of chairman Of the republican national
committee he was unfamiliar with the
national field, and so set at once about
getting acquainted. He arranged q
continental journey. and dropped in on
party leaders in many states, discuss
ing issues with them and gathering in
formation about local party needs
The result was an organization that
yielded two victories-the one of 1918,
which secured Congress for the re-
publicans, and that Of 1920. unprece-
dented for the majorities which Sc
cured for them both Congress and the
presidency. The chairman's activities
capitalized heavily at the polls.
Mr.. Hull, unfamiliar with the ma
tional field. is now on tour, and pur-
poses going as far as the Pacific coast.
Here and there he will deliver public
speech, but oftener will confer with
local democratic leaders about what
may be necessary to strengthen local
democratic organizations.
A national campaign calls for a ma
tional effort on the part of campaign
manager, and he soon discovers the
size of his job. He discovers also the
size of this country, and what is neces-
sary to quicken party sentiment for
the fray. He needs every hour Of day.
light. and as much time as he can
borrow from the electric light.
Mr.. Hull, who has his eye on No.
vember, and also probably on Chair
man Adams of the republican national
committee, is not afoot too soon.
Everybody is thinking and talking
politics. and now is the time to lay
pipe for votes.

Direct Primaries.

Recommendation by both the demo.
cratic and republican state conven.
tfons in Maine for repeal Of the direct
primary law by which nominations are
made adds impetus to the rapidly
growing movement in several states
for the accomplishment Of that end.
The republican state convention in
session at Bangor last Thursday adopt
ed a plank in the platform declaring
that the direct primary law. which
had been in operation for ten years,
had proved unsatisfactory and should
be repealed. The following day the
democrats. in state convention as
sernbled, in Augusta, followed suit.
New York is going back to the con-
vention system Of selection Of candi-
dates. Indiana is discussing it, and in
several other states there Is agitation
against the direct primary plan. But
the system still has many doughty up
holders and supporters who will urge
its retention. No one can say how the
sentiment Of the country has crystal

Rights Under Mandates.

A likely cause of future misunder-
standings is removed by decision Of
the British government to recognize
equality of rights for Americans in de-
veloping the resources Of all inundated
islands and territories. In some Euro
pean quarters the view had been ex-
pressed that because the United States
did not ratify the treaty Of Versailles
and refused to take over mandates for
any former enemy territory, no claim
could be put forward by this country
to share in the benefits to be derived
the American government never would
have accepted, and if persisted in the
consequences might have been serious.
The British government, of course,
speaks only for itself in conceding to
American enterprisers equality of op.
portunity, but the precedent having
been established 1t is unlikely any of
the other allied powers will attempt to
maintain an opposing attitude. The
precedent, in fact, already had been
established. and the British govern
ment merely subscribes to it. Amer
lean rights in inundated territories
were established when, during the sit
tings of the arms conference here, ia.
ment conceding equality of rights in
the Island Of zap. Thus early the zap
treaty is demonstrated to be one of
the most important agreements grow
ing out of the Washington conference,
with consequences much more far.
reaching than merely the removal of
a possible cause of discord in the Pa.
cific.
The average American may not now
be keenly interested in the question Of
developing the resources of former
German territories, but such develop
ment will profoundly affect his pros.
perity in future years. The particular
case in which the British decision was
announced pertained to oil develop
ments in Palestine, and the assurance
of future oil supplies is one of the
most vital problems affecting the ma
tons today. But there are many other
resources in the development of which
it is equally necessary that we should
have a part. The former German pos.
sessions in equatorial Africa are
among the richest portions Of the
globe in undeveloped resources. and it
is recognized by far-seeing statesmen
and economists that If civilization is to
continue to progress and increase its
comforts it must look more and more
to the antipodes, and especially to the
tropics, for the necessary raw ma
terials.

The chief danger lies in the possible

Paris and Genoa.

If America had appeared at the
Paris conference three years ago as
well accredited as Great Britain and
France will at the Genoa conference
next week we should have escaped a
good deal of the European criticism
that has been showered upon us dur.
ing the past three years.
America at Paris was represented
practically by one man. Mr.. Wilson
monopolized consideration. In the eyes
Of the European delegates. he was
America, and they dealt with him as
such.
They overlooked the fact. or were
unable to appraise it's full value, that
in an appeal to the American people
made only a few months before, Mr.
Wilson's leadership had been repudi
ated. The republicans had carried the
congressional elections by handsome
majorities, and were now preparing
with much encouragement, for the
next presidential campaign, when. il
reasonable expectations were fulfilled
Mr.. Wilson and his party would be
swept completely out of power. II
was to an adverse Senate. therefore
that Mr.. Wilson's performance at Paris
was submitted, and by it amended in
a way and to a degree that made II
unacceptable to him, and he refused
assent.

next week will have favorable creden
tials in their pockets. The program OF
each has just been Endorsed by the
national legislature. 1.-The folks back

representatives at the conference, and

more than one in each case-will act
with the greater confidence for realiz
ing that important fact.

The Vice President,

Mr.. Coolidge is probably enjoying

Radio and Boy Problems.

One phase of radio has perhaps been
overlooked by students of the times
who have been worrying over a soru-

the fact that instead of having to
devise ways to keep his boy home
nights, he now has to figure on get

that boy has started to delve into the
mysteries of radio with his own out

Is 1t possible that this may prove
one solution of the vexing boy Ques-
ton? Not all boys take to radio and
not all have the opportunities afford
ed them to indulge it if they would.
But boys do not enjoy being outdone
by their fellow. Hearing tales of the
allurements of radio work from their
companions is apt to make them eager
fans of this new wonder, and so
great is the fascination, it Is said,
that once they undertake it they have
