its effect and that people will as a result Of it, do a little more

they ask is that the motorists of Casper obey the ~speedlaws and

The drive of The Tribune agains these lawbreakersi is not mere
1y a thought of the moment. 1t is to be a lasting thought, one
that will mean a change upon the streets of Casper; one that will
mean fewer ambulances and unnecessary funerals. We are told
repeatedly that this is the age of speed, but are we to construe
that this is the age of totally unnecessary and unreasonable
speed? No. 1t lies in the hands of the right living and right
thinking citizens of this community to discount any such theory.
We have a police department. That department works night
and day for the cause of safety: The city has inaugurated traf.
fc rules to govern and provide for the safety of pedestrian and
motorist alike. A wonderful work is going on all of the time.
But still we have avoidable accidents, and still the changing am
bulance passes to and fro between the hospital and some busy
corner of town.

States Senate, where it was sent in
the closing days of the las. session of
Congress.
Not Seeking Trouble.
By announcing that there is nothing
for the chief executive to do but to
await the action of the Senate, Mr..
Coolidge can keep himself out of the
controversy. As for the Senate, there
is two-thirds vote in that body which
can adopt the world court proposal,
but it means a coalition of Democrats
and Republicans. The opposition of
nearly half the Republicans in the
Senate would be inevitable and the
only question for the party leaders to
decide IS whether they want to risk
open warfare in the party itself or
shelve the whole question until after
the 1924 presidential campaign.
They do not, however, have free
dom of decision on that point, as the
Dem Jcrats would not let the world
court proposal sleep in the foreign re-
lations committee without making
speeches and directing the attention OF
the pro-court wing of the Republican
party to the neglect of a vital policy
of the Harding administration.
1t seems certain that hir. Coolidge
will leave the matter entirely to the
Republican leaders of the Senate and
will not get into the melee If he can
possibly help it. Mr.. Coolidge isn't
seeking political trouble.

Typewriter Has Aided in
Emancipation" of Women

women who have always had to work
so hard.
"This will enable them more easily
to earn a living"
That was back in 1890. Even
then, perhaps, Mr.. Sholes did not
realize just how much his invention
had done for women. The girl
stenographer and typist was just
then appearing on the business
horizon.
Up to that time women in business
was practically non-existent. The
working girl had been doomed to
factory work and similar poorly paid
tasks. But the typist broke down
the barrier of prejudice against wo.
men in business and she swept in
to conquer every other department.
Economic emancipation of the SCI
was won. All the rest followed

ed to the problem of state control of
the Republican organization and the
friends of Mr.. Coolidge wish, of course,
to line up the local politicians so that
the delegates ultimately chosen will
be instructed to cast their ballots for
the present incumbent. This is the
season of political maneuvering which
sometimes means more in the selec-
ton of q presidential candidate THAI
the convention itself.
The President has done one thing
which his advisers think is =. shrewd
piece of political strategy. He has
declined to upset the Harding ap-
pointees. He needs their support and
active help. There may be changes,
indeed there will be changes if Mr..
Coolidge is elected next year, but the
status quo will he maintained until
it is apparent that Mr.. Coolidge has a
free hand.
Colonel Harvey Returns.
Take, for instance, the return of
Ambassador Harvey to the court of
st. James. There were well defined
reports that the former editor of Har-
vey's weekly was ready to come back
home and take up the pen of political
sa tire once more. There were rumors
that he might be persuaded to do so
in behalf Of Hiram johnson, but Mr..
Harvey has returned to his post, where
he cannot very well participate either
for or against Mr.. Coolidge, and the
situation remains uncomplicated.
As for the world court itself, that
issue probably gives the best cue to
Mr.. Coolidge's political caution. He
has mad many an opportunity to dis
close his views on it. He made the
broad statement that he cannot very
we'll oppose the world co, t.. But he
need not espouse or carry on the XII,
of campaign which Mr.. Harding did.
Nor has any member of the present
cabinet made any speeches of length
about the world court since Mr.. Cool
idge assumed the duties If the presi-
dency. They are not themselves in
formed of his wishes and they main
tain, therefore, discreet silence.
The President las two courses open
to him in handling the snarl that has
arisen in the Republican party over
the world court. He can do as Mr..
Harding did and champion the meas
ure even more strongly. using the ar
gument that he is coTr tilted TO the
policies of his predecessor, or he can
take the position which so many of
the opponents of the world court urged
Mr.. Harding to take, namely, to leave
the matter entirely to. he United

Engineer Is Burned.

Del Rio, Tex, Sept. 15.-Engineer
Bert Kelly, of Del Rio. was severely
burned at Roma, in attempting to
rekindle the fire in his engine, which
had gone out during the night. The
Waterman, being unable to secure
ignition, called Mr.. Kelly. On ac-
count of water in the oil, kindling
was prepared and set on fire. While
working with this, an accumulation
Of gas in the pipes exploded, and the
engineer was burned to such an ex-
tent that he will be laid I'D indef-
initey. He was in charge of the
engine pulling the work train en-
gagged in lessening the curve in the
Southern Pacific road at that point.
