DEMOCRAT CHIEF TAM
IS REAL BOSS OF BIG
STRING NEWSPAPERS
Has Varied Interest But Devotes
Most OF His Time Now
To Journalism
BY ERNEST L. LYNN
NEA Service Writer

DAYTON, O., Dec. I'll
James M. Cox, three times gov
ernor of Ohio and Democratic
standard bearer in 1920, is a
man with a variety of interests,
chief of which are attending to
his four newspapers, keeping in
touch with international ques-
tons and farming.
He is equally at home in the
political forum, dictatino editor
ials to his stenographer or rails
ing hogs on his model farm at
his birthplace, Iacksorhurg. 0.
First of all, by instinct and by
training, Cox is q thoroughgoing
newspaper man. Talk with him in
his office at the Dayton Daily
News. You see a man of medium
height, with keen, almost penetrat-
ing eyes behind shiny glasses. He
is almost never without his pipe;
there is an alertness. a perception,
in his face, and he looks coHsidera-
bly, less than his SO years.
Cox is boss of his papers. But ne
hasn't forgotten the mechanics Of
his trade. Not long ago he bought
a new service" He wanted it
handled a certain way, SO he walk
ed out into the editorial room,

peeled off his coat and sat down at
the big desk and read copy" on
it. He knew what he wanted and he
showed his men how to do it.
The governor" as he is called,
has fondness amounting almost
to a passion for horses, and dogs.
Five miles out of Dayton is his
beautiful home, "Trailsend," SO call
ed because it marks the end of an
old Indian trail skirting the Miami
valley. There he has 100 acres,
and there he lives with his family,
raises bird dogs and hounds and
goes Jon frequent horseback rides
along the SO miles of bride paths
surrounding Trailsend.
Six days of the year he spends
riding a mule and shooting quail
down near Tuskegee, Ala. He plays
golf little and goes north in the
summer on fishing trips. Every
winter now, he plans to spend a
couple of months in Florida and,
because he has an exceeding dis
taste for idleness, he bought a
paper down there last April to en-
able him to keep his hand in. His
purchase was the Miami Metropolis.
He renamed it the News Metropolis
1t is perfectly apparent that Cox's
life is filled with tasks that are
congenial. Behind him is a long
and excellent record of public of
flee, but he is not restless or yearn-
ing when out of it. AS he remark
ed to me, "A man formerly in pub
lice life who returns to newspa-
per work doesn't get home sick. :"
And it is easy to believe he is in
earnest when he says it.
Tough Shedding.
His early years were years Of
struggle. constant fight to get an
education and amount to some
thing" He was born March 81
1870, on a farm near the little In
dian village of Jacksonburg, 50
miles north of Cincinnati. His par
ents were Gilbert and Eliza An

from an old English family and the

A RIG ISSUE.

In an edition of The Herald pub
 lished twenty-five years ago last Tuesday appeared the item With election day only five weeks away 'sn-and- -so' holds the front seat in the Republican ranks" Today, in look ing over the names of those mem toned as possible candidates for the mayoralty. with election more than year ahead. one finds the same name mentioned, This is not the begin- ming of boom for the aforesaid "So- and.so." nor Is it n criticism of him. IL is merely the calling attention to an interesting coincidence. apropos of an interesting subject-politics,
 A great orator died tho other day F. Bourke Cochran He possessed brains, education, ability, Yet he never held the highest positions in the country although he was active in politics, It was said of him that his failure to become permanently identified with some big issue tended to detract from his standing.
 There is one big issue before the people today, and the size of that issue will not become less as the years pass. It has never before as- sumcd the threatening proportions it now possesses; it is an issue which has to be met, and meeting it be- comes more and more difficult as the pcrplexities of life increase. That issue is taxes One who beginsenow the career of championing lower taxes and who devotes his thought and study to ways and mesHs for lowering taxes will become the cham pion of the people, the benefactor of the people. If, in addition to finding means for reducing taxes that. person.
 is able to discover ways for retaining modern advantages which higher taxes have procured. he will be a worthy champion and he will become the country's great man.
 It is predicted that the man to be chosen for next mayor of this city will be the man able to convince the people at that time that he, better than anyone else, will be able to re- duce the tax burden of the people without depriving them of the ben efits of modern advantages.

PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECT.

The letter from the school accom- modations committee to Mayor Pao- nessa. recommending that the board "offer no objection to the Mayor or anyone appointed by him visiting the schools and informing themselves in regard to needed accommodations but stating that lin our opinion 8 survey made by people who are not thoroughly familiar with school methods can help very little in the present situation" is a courteous re- joinder to the Mayors request. It implies, however, distinct opposi. ton to the Mayors plan, and 1t is this spirit of failing to recognize the popular sentiment in regard to school matters, which may be gently criti- cized
 This newspaper is of the opinion that. practically, the school commit tee is probably right-as far as con- crete, practical results of such a sur vey" are concerned. Some confusion and discussion, even, might result from such survey The school com. mittee is, probably, better qualified to pass upon these matters than would be any temporary commit tee"
 Nevertheless this newspaper be- lieves that hearty cooperation in the plan of the survey would have been a wise move on the part of the com- mittee at this time. The committee must be aware of the criticism of the committees methods that has been made Much of it is, probably, un- just criticism. If such is the case such survey, with earnest attempts by the committee to explain the situ- ation to members of the surveying committee, would accomplish much good.
 The point is that the time has come for sincere effort to bring about q better feeling toward the school committee-a more compre- hensive understanding of the earnest endeavors it's members give to their work. The psychological effect of meeting the Mayors plan more than half way would be a splendid thing, looking toward a future knowledge of the value of the school commit tees work. The bigger the man the more willing he is to explain to those who do not understand.

THE OLD STYLES.

There is more than joke in the news from London that physicians de- clare the heavy gypsy ear rings of the latest fashion are pulling into triangu- lar shapes the ears of women who wear them and thus permanently dis figuring them. The beauty special ists" add their testimony to that of medical men, saying that they have an increasing number of clients who come to them to have their ears mas saged to bring them back into their original shape.
 Tn this news there is food for thought for those who cannot see anything good in the new fashion Nof greater freedom in dress which, it is to be feared is passing.
 Of course there is no use comment ing upon the matter if it be not grant cd that the natural conformation of woman is more beautiful and health full than anything artificial. It must be granted, too, that wearing Of ear rings is the renewal of an old fash toned custom
 Not to 20 into too intimate details of woman's dress if will readily be seen, if thought is given to the sub feet, that uomen's styles have altered women in many ways. One simple l- lustration--that of shoes, for instance will serve to illustrate the advaht- age of the modern tendency. 1t vas not so many years ago that women would refuse absolutely to wear the large, heavy-soled shoes which are considered smart for street and sport wear today. All women's shoes are more comfortable than they used to be. The result cannot be other than beneficial. In regard to other details the same results are found, With these evidences of the common sense of modern women so clear. one should hesitate long before condemn ing any tendency to make woman's dress more free from style-ordained bonds.
