BAY STATE LEADS
IN RULE OF NATION

The succession of Calvin Coolidge to
the Presidency Of the United States re-
suits in the leadership of the executive
and legislative branches Of the govern
ment by Massachusetts, men.
Senator Lodge is the republican leader
in the Senate, and it is expected will be
continued in that office at the coming
session Of Congress. The fact that the
new President halls from Massachusetts,
and that Senator Lodge may be -
pected to have peculiarly close relations
with him on that account makes the con-
tinuance of Lodge as the leader OF the
Senate advisable, it Is felt.
Speaker .Gillett, presiding officer OF
the House during the last two Con-

that Office when the new Congress as

In the cabinet Of President Harding

Warren was nineteen years of age
when his father, seeking a wider field,
moved the family to Marion, Ohio,
the county seat Of an adjoining
county, in which place the family
continued to live. During the years
he was in the United States Senate
and while living in the White House
Mr.. Harding maintained his old home
in Marion.
When the family migrated to Mar
ion, Warren had completed his COL
lege course. He was ambitious to
enter upon journalism as a life work.
The Star was a struggling evening
paper. 1t was diminutive in size and
it's influence and circulation were cor
respondingly small. At the time
Marion was town of only 1000 popu-
lation, but this outlook in nowise
deferred young Harding in his pur-
pose. The paper was not making
money and it's future was considered
most precarious. Nevertheless he
yearned to possess it and his father
having faith in the young mans abil-
ity, and being anxious to give him a
start, lent his credit in assisting him
in taking over the paper. The con-
sideration, fortunately, was small
little more than enough to assume the
responsibility Of its Indebtedness. To

In the meantime the young pub
Usher had become prominent in civic

body as a senator from the thirteenth

Little Rock Letter

Little Rock, March 2O.-There is
little prospect Of an early test of the
income tax act passed by the recent
Legislature. Unfortunately there will
be later on, but since the first tax is
not due until April I, 1924, there will
be no occasion for a test until that
time. On the other hand the collec-
tion Of the Severance tax will begin
with April /, this year, and is to be
collected quarterly. II is understood
that one Of the large corporations Of
the state win contest this tax on the
ground that it is discriminatory.
Can the state afford to have illit-
erates?' is the topic that has been as
signed by Mrs. Cora Wilson Stewart
10 Gov. McRae for his address be-
fore the Southern nliteracy Confer
ence in Little Rock, April 10-11. The
Governor will appoint about 300 dele
gates from all parts of the state to at
tend this conference.
Senator Jake Wilson, president of
the State Senate, is one Of the strong
est advocates Of the proposed amend
ment to the constitution prohibiting
local and special legislation by the
General Assembly. He opposed local
legislation In 1921 and was one Of the
active supporters Of the resolution
adopted by the recent session design
ed to prevent it. Senator Wilson de-
clares that" local legislation as it is
practiced in Arkansas is little less
than a crime" He calls attention to
the fact that local bills are passed
without dellberation or consideration
on the part Of the members and that
the author alone is responsible or is
familiar with the provisions of the
bill.

WANT SILVER ISSUE
TAKEN BEFORE COURT
Producers, Through Official, Ask
for Trial of Question of Funds
Treasury Retains.

The argument between the Treas
ury Department and producers of sill
yer over silver purchases under the
Pittman act reached another stage
last night with a reply by J. F. Call
breath, secretary of the American
Mining Congress, to Acting Secretary
Gilbert, in which the silver pro-
ducers again demanded the matter be
taken to court.
Commenting upon the Treasury's
announcement that revocation of sill
yer allocated to the director of the
mint under the terms of the Pittman
act satisfies the purchase provision
OF the act and saves.the people OF the
United States at least $5,o00,000," Mr..
Callbreath's letter daclared:
Z 'The $5,000.000 so retained by the
Treasury Department does not belong
to the Treasury Department as agent
for the body polite. but to the silver
producers who produced silver under
the guaranty of the Pittman aot."
Mr.. Callbreath further declared
that the mining. congress did not con-
slider the ruling Of the controller gem
eral. under which the revocation ord er
was issued was mandatory.
The mining congress-" Mr.. Call
breath added, As not taking issue
with the Treasury Department or any
Of its officials, but is making every
effort to ascertain all the facts. 1t is
our thought that these facts could
best be determined in a court of law
having proper and competent juris-
diction."
