We understand that in Detroit, "the

il has been arrested the second time for
speeding, reckless driving or driving while
intoxicated And. OF course. since the car
can't be driven without tags he is simply
kept off Of the seat of one until he is re-
instated. It's not bad idea, either II
the average auto owner knew that he
either had to drive sensibly and carefully
or lose the right to drive. he'd never forget
himself. and he'd seldom be injured or
injure other people. There is a certain
temptation to give her the Gas" when a
pretty stretch of road looms into view.
But the possibility Of forfeitine the right
to drive and Of having car on his hands
that couldn't be taken out Of the garage
would do away with even this temptation
The country is getting so full Of autos that
something will have to be done to protect
those who drive them and those who walk.
And we fully expect to see the time come
when there will be law whereby man
will lose his car II he doesn't drive il
sensibly.

DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
Lucky To Find A Candidate For
The Vice Presidency.

Cordell Hull. of Tennessee. Chairman of
the Democratic National Committee, last
Friday issued this formal statement con-
corning the Republican convention just
concluded at Cleveland:
The Republican convention seemed
mighty lucky in being able finally, after
much lodging. duckine and declining by
those to whom offers were made. to find
any person who would accept the vice.
presidential nomination. No party in the
past has ever reached such an ebb that
nomination for vice-president has been
declined after ii was already made. with
one exception. and that was under mis-
apprehension. This unique convention ex-
perience was a further reflection Of the
leadership of President Coolidge. follow
ing his ten months record Of mastery
leadership Of his party and his Congress
at Washington.
This campaign will demonstrate whether
a political party can live or ought to live
after having dragged the government
ton and left in its trail conditions Of de-
bauchery and scandal on a scale unrivaled
in the nations history. as during the past
three and one-half years Of the Harding
Coolidge administration.
1T is hypocritical folly to talk about
giving the people any sort Of decent gov
eminent during the next four years, unless
wholesale corruption in many government
departments is first removed and public
morals and official honesty are restored
at Washington. Instead Of frankly con-
Tossing and abjectly apoloeizing for the
Republican record Of graft, bribery and
rapine during the present administration.
the Cleveland convention cheered loudest
when the patriotic Democratic Senators
who exposed Republican corruption were
denounced by Mondel and others as char
acter assassins and scandalmongers.
From the gentle. not to say sympa-
thetic. manner in which the Republican
famous conduct. an uniformed person
might easily conclude that Newberry. Fall.
Daugherty. Forbes and their associates
we're persons of the highest probity and
that Senator Walsh and others who ex-
posed wholesale crimes were the real
criminals. The old guard. special-interest
element Of the Republican party, can not
purge or reform ITSELF 1t today constitutes
the chief menace TO honest and represen-
tative government and should be destroyed.
THE Republican platform, like that of
1920, facing in many directions. and nota-
Bile for its hypocrisy and false pretense. is
only intended to last until the November
election. After all the noise. paid -propa-
ganda and horseplay Of the last six months
about the Mellon tax proposals. the Re-
publican platform dared not even mention
Melons name, much less his tax pro-
posals. This reputation was in effect an
Endorsement of the Democratic tax reduc-
tion measure.
THE nation. sick and disguised at the
Republican Incompetence. failure and cor
ruption during the past three years. will
now welcome a typical Democratic ad-
ministation of honesty, efficiency and
constructive achievement"

keynoter Burton Sidestepes Tariff
At Cleveland Convention.

OF the 5000 words Of Congressman
Buttons keynote" speech at the Repub-
Iican convention only about 800 were
devoted to the Fordney- McCumber tariff
and these were only few eeneralities.
The tariff was omitted from Mr.. Burton's
enumeration Of the laws which he credited
the Republican Congress with having en-
acted for the benefit Of the farmers.
Congressman Burton. it is felt, shares
the doubts and fears Of his Republican
colleagues regarding the profiteers' tariff.
They know that the farmers have not only
not benefited, but have actually suffered
by reason Of the protection" given to spe-
cial interests from whom they have 70
buy while the duties on agricultural pro-
ducts were utterly worthless The recent
increase in tariff on wheat was followed
by drop in the price. Wheat is selling
for less now than in 1923 and for less
than during the previous nine years.
