O'Ryan said that many of the men
who determined the policies OF the
bureau during the Forbes regime
are still holding their old jobs and
he recommended Brig. Gen. Frank
T. Hines. the, present. director, dis
pense with their services.
"Great waste and ineffective ef-
fort" has. prevailed in the expendi-
ture Of approximately $50, 700 900
for vocational education" O'Ryan
declared, while 40 per cent of the
veterans now in Government hos.
pitfalls are not in need of hospital
treatment.
Col. Forbes administration of the
bureau was pointed to by Organ
as the Outstanding cause" of the
unsatisfactory conditions in the
bureau up to February, 1928.
"The statements Of Col. Forbes
while on the stand, and the testi-
mony of other witnesses, all have
so enmeshed him with the machina-
tions and purposes of the ring Of
conspirators," Organ said, "as
clearly to establish his intimate
relation with them and their plans"

BILL ASKS CARE
. FOR INJURED
VETERANS
Hines Transmits Measure
Providing Hospital Treat
ment for All.

A bill to provide care and hos
pital treatment for veterans OF all
wars/ regardless Of the manner in
which they received their injuries.
was today transmitted to Congress
by Gen. Frank T. Hines, director Of
the United States Veterans Bu-
reau. The legislation now reads,
said Hines, that a man cannot re-
ceive treatment IL his disability was
brought about by his own miscon-
duct, and it is necessary for him to
be injured in the line OF duty to be
hospitalized.
In speaking of the bill this morn
ing. Hines called attention to the
Presidents address to Congress on
December 6, in which he said "At
present there are $500 vacant beds
in Government hospitals. / recon-
mend that all hospitals be author
lied at once to receive and care for,
without hospital pay, the veterans
of all wars needing such care,
whenever there are vacant beds, and
that immediate steps be taken to
enlarge and build new hospitals to
take care Of such cases."
The director explained that the
submitted bill is intended to provide
care for the veterans, especially Of
the world war, who have not suffi-
cient proof that their injuries were
received while on duty.

WRIT OF PROHIBITION
: AGAINST RENT BOARD
Chief Justice Mccoy Enjoins Con.
sideration of Damage Plea
Filed by Tenant.
CLAIM OF SARAH J. BEANER
John D. Keleher, Property Owner,
Wins Decision.

Chief Justice Mccoy of the District
Supreme Court today granted a writ
of prohibition against the District
Rent Commission. The order Of the
court will prevent the commission
from proceeding to entertain a COM
plaint for damages filed by Sarah j..
Beaner, former tenant OF 11o4
Vermont avenue northwest, against
John B. keleher, owner OF the
property, from which she alleged she
had removed by reason of bad faith
in the notice to quit The tenant
claimed that she had lost her busi-
ness of renting rooms and had suf-
fered damages to the extent of
Rent Commission Acts,
The Rent Commission last October
took cognizance of the petition and
caused notice to be served on kele-
her to answer the complaint Through
Attorney James NJ. Proctor the owner
moved for a dismissal of the com
plant and attacked the jurisdiction
of the Rent Commission. The commits
sion asserted its testimony and, over
ruling the motion to dismiss. set a
date for the hearing Attorney Proc
tor then brought his petition for a
writ of prohibition in the District
Supreme Court.
The chief justicein granting the writ
declared that the case does not fall
within the provision of the Ball rent
act providing that the commission may
determine what amount will compen-
safe a tenant for damage due to GER
tain acts, all of which must have been
done during the tenancy, which acts
are of such a character as to impair
the value of the occupancy of the
tenant.
Reason for Issuing Writ.
The writ of prohibition will issue,
the court says. TO avoid the difficulties
to which the petitioner would be put
and the inconvenienceS to the courts
which would follow if the case were al
lowed to proceed in the certainty that
II finally must be decided that the
commission was without jurisdiction.

Samuels Runs Third In
Straw Vote At Boise

Boise-Calvin Coolidge ran far
ahead here in unique poll institute
ed by proprietors of eight of the
leading restaurants in the capital
city, when John w. Davis was sec
ond and Robert LaFollette third.
The poll had surprising results in
that 1t placed as third in the race
both the Progressive candidate for
president and H. C. Samuels, Pro-
gressive candidate for governor.
Charles c. Moore, Republican can
didate for governor, out of 479 votes
cast, received 321; Freehafer, the
Democratic candidate, Sc and Sam
uels trailed with r.
In the presidential poll there were
Gil votes cast, 1872 going to. Cool
idge, Davis 1872 and LaFollette 81.
The plan adopted by the restaur-
anteurs was to have printed ballots,
using the same sheet for the cash
ler's check used by the patron.
More interest was evinced by pa
irons in the presidential race than
in the gubernatorial contest.

SHALL POLITICIANS OR
CONSTITUTION RULE.

AS the campaign draws to a close
the people of the United States are
being aroused to the danger that
confronts the nation in the revolu-
tionary proposal to tear down the
constitutional safeguards of the citi-
zens and give to congress power to
reverse decisions of the supreme
court, as advocated by the LaFoll-
cite platform. Within the past few
days President Coolidge has de-
clared this to be one of the main is
sues in this campaign and such
statesmen as Secretary of State
Charles E. Hughes has uttered a
solemn warning of the perils that
Turk underneath this radical plan.
Senator Borah recently denounced
the proposal in no uncertain terms
as impracticable and revolutionary.
Not alone is the proposal abhorrent
to the minds of Republican states
men, but even Candidate Davis, head
of the Democratic ticket, does not
hesitate to condemn the LaFollette
proposal.
Every American of patriotic i'm
pulses should carefully analyze the
issue that is involved in the LaFoll-
cite plan for overriding court de-
cisions by vote of politically
chosen congress. Destroy the gov

NO TIME NOW TO
ROCK THE BOAT.

After all the political promises
have been made and after all the
supplies of political mud have been
"slung," one fact stands out remark
ably clear-business conditions in
this country are returning to nor
NAL in an orderly manner.
Farmers are getting reasonably
good prices for their crops, workmen
are getting good wages and indus
trial output has been reorganized on
a sound peace-time basis.
With workable PREPARATIONS plan
in Europe and with Germany max
ing her first payments in accordance
with the same, worldwide markets
are being opened up and enlarged
for American farm and manufact-
ured products of all kinds.
With our house set to rights at
home and with such prospect for
future activity abroad, it would seem
like the height of folly for
country such as ours to jeopardize
its chances for prosperity by the
adoption of radical policies of any
kind.
Political promises for class favor
itism and visionary schemes will not
make a market for the farmers
crops nor will they give the work
ingman steady employment at good
wages. 1t makes no difference what
party makes such promises, they
cannot, in the long run, be carried
out
Whether more business and less
politics is instilled in our govern
mental affairs, depends on the senti-
ment of the American people as ex-
pressed in our coming elections.
If any citizen deliberately votes
for an experiment at this time, he
should not cry at results, for expert |
ments usually cost money and in |
public affairs the taxpayer will foot |
the bill.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1924-10-23

ernmental balance which the fore
fathers devised, take away the
checks they set up, to safeguard the
''inalienable rights of the people
and to make considered judgment
prevail over hasty impulses, and
there is immediate exposure of our
liberties, to forces that make for
destruction The founders of the
republic acted advisedly when they
established a representative form of
government, and they were even
wiser when they saw to it that the
representatives of the people should
be subject to the mandates and pro-
hibitiOns of constitution set down
in black and white. Those man
dates and prohibitions comprise the
guarantee of individual rights. The
most important of all the checks is
that to be found in the power vested
in the courts to say whether or not
the basic law or the Bill of Rights
has been contravened.
The supreme court does not un-
dertake to say whether law is wise
or foolish. 1t does undertake to
say, when asked, whether a statutory
law stands the constitutional test.
If congress were empowered to pass
finally on the merits of its own acts
with respect to the validity thereof.
the coordinate scheme of our gov
eminent would be destroyed, and
the constitution would not be con-
stitution at all.
In discussing this matter Presi-
dent Coolidge and Mr.. Dawes adj
dress themselves to the common
sense of the people. They have
faith that the people will discern the
truth and that this discernment will
keep them free. They are relying
on this same common sense to
thwart the endeavors of those who
would have the government buy and
operate the railroads, and to keep
in their proper places the quack
doctrinaires who Overstress the vir-
tue of legislative solvents of econ
omic ills.
