INDIANA CHEERED
AT MAINE RESULT.
KIan Situation in Hoosier
State Similar to That in
New England.
Special Dispatch to The star.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, September
l3.-The overwhelming victory tof the
Republican senatorial ticket intMaine
and the success of the Khan backed
State ticket has considerably encour-
aged Republican leaders in Indiana to
hope that the entire Republican slate
will be carried through.
The situation in Indiana is similar
to that in Maine, the Khan here back
ing Ed Jackson, the Republican can
didate for governor. Republican lead
ers had begun to fear that the in
tense fight being made on Jackson
because of his Khan Endorsement
might work harm to the national
ticket, which, admittedly, is strong in
this State. With the example Of
Maine before them, however, they be-
lieve the national ticket will exhibit
such strength that it will carry the
whole State ticket through to vie
tory.
Can "Scratchn Tickets.
That Hoosiers can scratch" their
years ago, when Jackson was elected
secretary of State by a majority OF
nearly 10000 and Samuel NJ. Ralston.
Democrat, was elected United States
Senator by more than $4,000 majority.
Scratching, too, will be easier this
Fall, because the large number of
independent national tickets in the
field precludes the use Of voting ma
chimes, which had come into general
use in the State.
Some idea of the disparity in
strength between Coolidge and Jack
son was shown in a poll taken at the
State fair. The poll was taken from
among a cross-section Of the agri-
cultural element Of the State. Cool
tdge received 66 per cent of the vote
cast. John w. Davis IS per cent, and
Senator La Toilette 9 per cent.
That indicates to observers that
La Toilette has little strength among
the farmers of Indiana, and that he
will have to rely chiefly for support
on the laboring elements of the larger
cities.
On the other hand. however, Jack
SON received So per cent OF the vote
and Carleton B. McCulloch, his Demo-
cratic opponent, II per cent. Inas-
much as the Khan has its chief
strength in the rural districts, Demo-
cratic leaders took heart at the show
ing. They point to the fact that
Jackson is running behind Coolidge
as proof of their contention that the
Democratic State ticket will win.

Why Shoemakers Are Genuises,
From Cappers Weekly.

from Cappers weekly.
Reading \ newspaper story by
James Lucey. the shoemaker friend
of President Coolidge, reminds Spud
McDoody, Oklahoma shoemaker and
subscriber to Capper's weekly, that
ne has known many real Eeniuses,
musicians, singers. inventors, writer's
and politicians, who at some time in
their lives were sheemakers or shoe
repairers. Nobody believes shoe
makers accomplish much, because
they are quiet and studious and have
plenty of time to develop any idea
that comes to mind. For instance,
McDoody himself has perfected q
process for tanning leather and MAX
ing shoes second to none, besides hav-
ing written and copyrighted 4 fast
selling book. So much for the adage
that shoemAkers should stick to their

Turn Hair Dark
With Sage Tea
II Mixed With Sulphur IT Darkens
So Naturally Nobody

The old-tilne mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers recipe, and folks are again
using it to keep their hair a good,
even color, which is quite sensible,
as we are living in an age when a
youthful appearance is of the great
est advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home
All drug stores sell the ready-to-use
product, improved by the addition of
other ingredients, called "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" 1t is
very popular because nobody can dis
cover it has been applied. Simply
moisten your comb or a soft brush
with it. and draw this through your
hair, taking one small strand at a
time; by morning the gray hair dis
appears. but what delights the ladies
with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is that besides beautifully
darkening the hair after a few appli-
cations, it also produces that soft lus-
tire and appearance of abundance
which is so attractive.-adv.

Washington, D. C.-The Mellon tax

fight against the proposal to cut into
the present maximum surtax rate Of
so per cent and in favor Of even great

the treasury secretary.
President Coolidge is opposed to
any changes in the Mellon tax reduc-
tion plan that would compromise the
principle stated in the bill, a White
House authority said.
The soldiers bonus was injected
prominently into the tax situation
with the filing of formal petitions for
a conference of house republicans to
decide whether the ways and means
committee is to report a bonus bill
ahead of tax legislation. Former
service men who are members of con-
gress pressed their demand for a con-

cially submitted by the League of Ma lions for discussion by the various powers.
 On Sunday, July 13, a one-day con ference on workers education was held under the joint auspices of the Central Trades and Labor Council of New York and vicinity. the Workers Edu- cation Bureau of America and Brook wood Labor College. Nearly sixty La bor people and teachers were present Among those making brief statements at the opening of the discussion were Mir. Carl Karston, chairman of Edu- cation Committee of the Atlanta, Ga, Central Labor Union, and Mir. Robert Fechner, General Executive Board member of the International Associa- ton of Machinists. The subject of the conference was What Labor Expects of Teachers in Workers Classes"
 Labor people urged that those who are deeply interested in workers edu- cation should not try to go too fast giving the idea a chance to take root in the minds of individuals and orga- nizations. They warned against em- ploying teachers who have had no con- tract whatever with the labor movement and particularly against teachers who undertake to be witty at the expense of their class and incur the suspicion of workers, who like all other students dislike the teacher who seems to take advantage of them and expose them to ridicule by his cleverness.
 It was also pointed out that many adult workers when the word educa- tion is mentioned to them think imme- diately of the school which they at tended when they were boys, where they sat at desks studying subjects in which they were but little interested, under teachers who failed to sti1nu- late thought and imagination. Some how union publicity must make clear the difference between that kind of education and education according to modern methods, such as are employed in workers classes.
 
 port that in Raleigh. N C.. all the members of all the local unions are being canvassed individually by com mittees to find out what subjects they wish to see taught in the workers classes that are to be formed there next fall
 On the last night of the summer ses- sion a very interesting report was made by Paul w. Fuller, who has re- gently become the educational direc- tor in District No. 2 United Mine Workers of America, in central Penn sylvania. Mir. Fuller reported that the first classes organized in the district had been formed in a region where about 35000 miners are on strike against an attempted reduction in wages Seven classes have been form ed The attendance in each of the classes grows from week to week Not only the striking miners but their wives and other members of their families attend
 These successful summer sessions, the first held in this country east of the Mississippi, mark further exten- tion of Brookwood's usefulness and a new step in the workers education movement to which so great an i'm petus was given last fall when the A. F. of L. at it's Portland convention made workers education an integral part of the American labor movement

PROGRESSES OF INDUSTRIAL
 STANDARDIZATION
By A. w. WHITNEY.
Chairman, American Engineering Standards
 Committee.

Progress of standardization or sim plihcaton as its is sometimes called, in the United States is of direct interest to the worker, as it means greater efficiency and higher productivity. In creasing standardization Is a blow at a great waste in industry and means the adoption of fewer kinds, sizes and va rieties in manu factured products and in the parts that maks up such pro- ducts. It is also of interest to the worker as being a move i'll the direc- ton of self-government by industry al, the gradual elimination of the abrse of industry by the. cooperative effort of workers and mployers.-Edito-
 During the past year, industrial stan dardizatiOn has continued to develop as one of the most active and important phases of American industry. Progress has been made in the standardization of raw materials, manufacturing pro- cess and finished products. This is equally true whether looked at from the point of view of the factory, of the 11OuSlI1d1 or tCCHIllCdI dSSOC1dI1O1l, or of national movement.
 A strikingly development is the in creased systematic use of specifications in public purchases, notably in the fe- deral and in several of the state gov ernments The National Association of Purchasing Agents and the National Council of Governmental Purchasing Agents are devoting much time and attention to the subject
 The Federal Specifications Board is beginning the third year of its activity In this, the American Engineering Standards Committee has co-operated by obtaining criticisms from the va rious interested industries of proposed specifications of the Federal Govern ment before the specifications are fin
