JUDGE
BY RECORD
President Coolidge is a candidate
for president of the United States. de
has a record and must be judged by
that record. Mr.. Coolidge, you are
before the bar of public judgment.
Stand up and answer for your deeds
of omission. Knowing Mr.. Daugher-
ty as you did, why was it necessary
for the legislative branch of the gov
eminent to expose the corruption IN
the department of justice? Why, Mr..
Coolidge dc you still keep in the de-
partment of justice those men who
worked hand in hand with Daugherty
in protecting crime and criminals! l
ask these things, Mr.. Coolidge, l ask
them in the name of common sense.
"This is labor's day. l have reason
to believe that this audience is largely
composed Of workers. But / have en-
favored to appeal to you today, not
as a class within the American body
polite, with special wishes and spe-
cial needs, but as average citizens who
ask only a square deal. Today l have
tried simply to indicate that so long
as our political parties are controlled
entirely by the financial interests we
must expect corruption in the national
government. This constitutes condi-
ion that cannot be cured by silence in
the White House, but silence is all
that issues from the White House.

Boston, Stpe. 1.-Proclaiming the
arrival of a new political cleavage
based on economic division, assailing
by name his adversary candidates and
summoning the citizens of Massachu-
sets to what he declared was their
hereditary tradition of innOvating In
natic2c1 affairs, Senator Wheeler CT
Mo ana, on Boston common MONDAY
op~ed his campaign as vice presi-
Dental candidate on the La Toilette
ticket. Again ard again he critized
President CooliC ., whom he termed
tn > "mythically strong, courageous,
silent, watchtul man, who occupies
tho presidential chair" and attacked
satirics-y Charles G. Dawes, the re-
publican vice presidential nominee for
"his gallant service in war on crga-
nized labor" while he referred to John
w. Davis, democratic standard bearer,
as "a man who would be willing, it
seems, to Out-Coolidge Coolidge as a
servant of Wall Street." For himself
Sen. Wheeler said he would welcome a
classification as radical to help the re-
volt against Giving Under the dictat-
orship of a small class that controls
the financial resources of the country"
He asserted the only issue Of the day
was that "of returning the govern
ment to the Representatives Of the
people," for, he added, the two cid
parties Gin everything but name, are
now alike as the "gold dust twins"
in their subservience to control of
single dominant power of financial in
dustrial and commercial interests cen
tering in Wall street."
BLAMES
WALL STREET
For ammunition to support his at
tack, the Montana senator dwelled
much upon the record Of the SENATOR
al committee which Investigated the
official conduct of former Attorney
General Daugherty, most Of which
was brought out by himself as prose
cutor. Corruption in government which
/ he said, had been exposed, he treated
as an inevitable result Of financial
controls"
Declaring that the republican and
democratic parties have long since
ceased to represent distinct lines OF
economical thought and interest" the
candidate continued:
"They have fallen under control OF
single dominant power which uses
them to further its own interests. In
stead Of a, government Of the people
by the people for the people, we have
a government of Wall Street, by Wal
Street, for Wall Street. 1 use the
term Wall Street to designate the in.
dustrial and commercial interests cen.
tering in that crooked lane in lower
New York city.
PASSED
UP CHANCE
"a chance presented itself thi,
summer to break this strange hole
which big business has obtained OF
government, a chance for the nomina
tion of a man by one or the other O.
the two parties who places the com
mon good above the will of Wal
Street.
"This opportunity was not embraced
of course, by the representatives O.
the predatory class who met at Cleve

Jazz Sonata Presented.

I AWRENCE GILMAN, a leading
music critic of America, has made
the following interesting comment in
his columns in Tuesdays New York
Herald-Tribune regarding the much
talked-of new "jazz sonata" written
by George Antheil, young American
composer who has won renown I'm
Europe:
when George Antheifs jazz SON
alta began, we all sa. forward on our
seats, for here was music by the en-
fant terrible Of cotemporary music.
who Is said to make Stravinsky sound
like Charles Wakefield Cadman, and
who has achieved the incredible dis
unction of being hissed as a radical
by Schonberg and his pupils. He is
also credited with an American
symphony, supposed to have been
inspired by 'skyscrapers, machines.
subways, electric lights and scored
for bassoon, trumpet, trombone, flute.
and violin Che should have used a
typewriter in his orchestra, as Erik
Satie did in his ballet 'Paradeo.
If young Mr.. Antheil has really
set skyscrapers and subways to
music, that Is all to the good-we
hope he has made as fresh and
authentic music out of them as
Monegger did out of his mogul
locomotive. And if he chooses to
score for an orchestra consisting of
16 first and 16 second subway turn
stiles, 2 B-fat carwheels and 10
muted linotypes, we should be the
last to reprove or mock him. The
question is, of course, what Mr..
Antheil does with his subway turn
stiles after he sets them in operation.
