An Appeal To Voters.

An appeal to the voters throughout the
State, regardless Of party utilization. has
been made by leaders of both Democratic
and Republican parties to support the pro-
posed Constitutional Amendment pertain
ing to the States Attorneys Office for Balti-
more City. which will appear on the ballots
In the coming election. Endorsement Of the
proposed amendment has been announced
by Governor Richie. former Governor
Phillips Lee GJldsbOroueh. United States
Senators William Cabell Bruce and Owing
ton E. Weller. Members Of Congress and
other political leaders, as well as by bust
ness and industrial interests.
The proposed amendment. which was
authorized by the last Legislature. subject
to the approval Of the people. must be
voted on throughout the State. although il
concerns only the States Attorneys Office
for Baltimore City. This department for
years. has been struggling under the severe
handicap imposed by the old-fashioned fee
system. Although handling something
like 5000 cases each year and taking
care Of the demands Of a population in
excess Of SOC. 900. this important depart
ment In many instances has been unable
to meet Its expenses. On many occasions
the States Attorney and his assistants
have been forced to wait sometimes for
months for their salary checks. In the
present month Of October there is a seri-
Gus shortage Of funds. and il may be
necessary for Herbert R. 0'ConnUr. the
States Attorney for Baltimore City. TO
advance from his private funds or borrow
money sufficient to meet his current ex-
penses. This Is a situation that should
not be tolerated. and as pointed out by
those who favor 1t the remedy is at hand
in the passage Of the proposed amendment.
The passage Of this measure will place the
burden Of defrayins the States Attorneys
once expenditures upon the Mayor and
City Council Of Baltimore City and will
not In any way effect the counties Of the |
State. None Of the costs will be borne |
outside the City Of Baltimore

"Vote For A Man, Not A Myth, ("
Says President MacCracken
OF Vassar.

Henry Noble MacCracken. president Of
Vassar College. Poughkeepsie. N. Y. one Of
the great American Institutions Of higher
education for women. has repudiated Presi-
dent Coolidge and announced his support
Of John W. Davis because he prefers "a
man to myth" Coming from an educa-
tor Of the position and prominence Of Dr..
MacCtacken. this Characterization Of Presi-
dent Coolidge. il is felt. will influence many
thousands Of women to vote for Mr. Davis
The following is DR.. MacCsacken's state
ment In full:
Il shall work for Davis. because prefer
a man to a myth. | know about Davis.
know he is the leading lawyer Of the
American bar. know his opinion on
every great issue. His record is an open
book. He is a man Of utter integrity.
trust him.
Il know nothing about Coolidge He is
a myth. Secrecy surrounds him ! can't
find out the truth about bis record as Gov
ernor. don't even know whether he wrote
the magazine articles be signed. when he
was Vice-President. What else he did as
Vice-President don't know. He sat at
Cabinet meetings with Fall and DENLY and
Daueherty. and could see no reason for
change when he came to select his own
Cabinet He is an edited man: he was put
together in publicity Office; and he will
be plausible just as long as he can find
someone to tell him Whist to think.
I've seen him in the movies Smile r
say the picture-men and he smiles. Go
to ball gamesr Give Henry Ford bucket

anxiously and humbly. But is that the
real COOLIDGE don't know know who
tells him to smile. for can see a movie
But don't know who tells him to sign on

Il was once Republican, by inheritance
and faith. But when the Republicans
abandoned their party policy in 1920. when
they caused their country to be defeated
in its war policy for the sake of a partisan
victory Of spite. when they repudiated
everything had learned from Lincoln and
Grant and Hay and Root to hold dear,
then gave up my party.
To-day Republicanism means repudis-
tion. cynical and self-seekine; Democracy
means progress. 1t is hypocrisy against
sincerity; the record Of 49, 30 against the
record Of '20-'24. Why anyone past the
age Of fairy tales wants to vote for a myth
like Coolidge. can not see. Vote for a

ment, said: Il earnestly hope that the
proposed Constitutional Amendment, re-
adjusting the financial system Of the Office
Of States Attorney for Baltimore City. will
be approved by the voters on November
4th. This proposed amendment among
other things. does away with the fee sys-
tenn. which necessitates the duplication Of
Indictments. with the increased cost which
results therefrom, and is otherwise waste
ful and undesirable. The salary increases
provided for are small when the vast in
crease in the amount of work which this
Office does is considered. and the require
ment that the States Attorneys Office
expenses must be approved by the Supreme
Bench is a very proper check and all that
is necessary. sincerely hope that the
people of Maryland. regardless Of party.
will give their support to this measure"

WOMEN IN POLITICS

The Alice Paul ideal of 'womens votes for women only" appears to be lacking in practical application. The New Haven Journal-Courier points out that out of Is states in which primaries have been held, only three named women for seats in congress, making a total of six can- didates to date. Two of them are named as Democrats overwheIm- ingly Republican districts, and four are named by Socialists and Prohibit tionists, and their political prospects are considered hopeless.
 Miss Paul IS identified with the National Woman's party, an orsani- zation that apparently believes in feminism at the polls. The Womans Voting league is more moderate, en- deayoring 10 rally women behind candidates it deems worthy no mat ter whether they be men or women.
 Mrs. Miriam Ferguson, nominated as the Democratic candidate for the Texas governorship, which means her election, does not attribute her success to the help of women en bloc, but it came about as a result of local conditions revolving around the Klan issue.
 On the whole, women in America have not made extraordinary head way in congress since having the vote. There are plenty of women who would possess the qualifications for the sGnste or the house, but there appe,s2 Fb be something about e.

ACAUSE OF WRECKS

Two high-speed limited trains on the New York Central-the Detroiter and the Lake Shore Limited-leave Syracuse, N. Y, five minutes apart, the Lake Shore Limited first. Thirty miles west of Syracuse the Detroiter smashes into the other, which had been stopped because of broken air hose. Twenty-seven persons were in- jured.
 Similar accidents" have hap pened before. Five minutes between fast trains may be sufficient under normal conditions but conditions are not always normal. The fog was so thick that the Detroiter's engineer could not see the warning signals set against his train within the "blocks." "
 Running fast trains from station en route only five minutes apart which with such trains means less than five miles apart-should be pro- hibited by law. It is, in fact, pro- hibited on some railroads; evidently not on the New York Central.
 We once rode on the last Pullman on a. train of that railroad during a foeey evening. Frequent stops and slowdowns were caused by a train just ahead. Three nervous trainmen with red lanterns and red flares stood on the platform, diligently throwing the red sparklers along the track te warn a train close behind, We nudg' ed near the platform, ready to jumr of at the slightest glimmer of the ap preaching train from the rear. Onc' thetrain stopped on the broad sweeI of & curve and wildly excited brakeman rushed up the rear eracl swinging a lantern and carrying flares. A foggy night on a sea-goint coast liner off Point Judith IS tam' in comparison. And all becaus' trains were running only severa minutes apart.

SAYS STATE WILL RATIFY

The Meriden Journal is of the opinion that the federal child labor amendment will prevail at Hart ford, as it has in some states" when the legislature meets the first of the year. But the Meriden paper opincs that the age-limit in the proposed amendment should have been 16 instead of IS years and believes the additional two years will make it harder to ratify the amendment.
 It has been claimed by party organs that the legislature will not ratify the amendment and on the basis of such prognostications the state has been placed in among those not ex- rected to ratify. Other lists place the state In the doubtful class. The Mer- iden editor probably is as near right as the others. The gentle art of forecasting what will happen is even less developed than the art of fore casting the weather a week ahead.
