TRIBUTE TO ELKS
 PAID BY COOLIDGE
E residents Letter Placed In Cor.
 nerst0ne Of Memorial

CHICAGO, June Tribute to the Elks as having demonstrated that brotherly love was a reality, was ex- pressed in a message from President Coolidge placed in the cornerstone of the National Memorial building of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks here today.
 Mir. Coolidge wrote:
 Il am very glad to shave an opp6f- tunity to join in this way in the cere- monies conneeted 4with%,they laying ef the cornerstone lof the Memorial build ing of the the Benevolent and Protec- tive Order of Elks. In the space of a single lifetimeg the order has become great national Organization, embrac- ing in its membership citizens of every class and station, and of every part of our country.
 Such a development would have been impossible had there not been behind it more than the pleasure and benefit which comes from the close and lasting friendships which the order promotes.
 Charity, justice, brotherly love and fidelity are virtues which are eternal, and you. have built upon them an or ganization which is it's accomplishments shows that they have been a reality and not merely a sounding phrase. If any demonstration were needed, it is found in that quiet but effective work which was carried -on by the Elks during the war" 4kt

March 4. and then, with the presidency vacant, Secretary of State Hughes au- tomatically under the federal statue will become President, and continue in the position until the blockade is raised,
 Soldering Effect Expected
 This short cut method, of solving the radical bloc problem, which is sbecom- ing more and lhofeo meaaeirg, will, it is believed, have soldering effect on the LaFollette hot heads who apparent ly are holding to the idea that if they can capture half dozen states they can dominate the government and force the election of one of their own.
 It was suggested that as soon as Senator LaFollette has had opportunity to weigh the situation in it's latest revelation he may be less eager to become an independent candidate.
 The possibility of the election of President being thrown into the House is causing anxiety since it was become definitely known that Senator LaFOl- lette is to run as an independent for President
 Hold Balance Of Power
 The situation is further complicated by the fact that LaFollette is follow CTS now have balance for power con- trol in both the Senate and House.
 Eminent lawyers, members of the na- tiOnal affairs committee of the nation al republican club, who have had the subject under discussion for the last week. have decided to present their conclusions to the republican leaders at the republican national convention.
 It is learned that it was Alfred Owen Crozier of the national republican club who first brought the ''short cut" meth od of thwarting the LaFollette bloc to the attention of his fellow members. Mir. Crozier is a constitutional lawyer of recognized standing, and his sugges- tion immediately engaged the most earnest attention of his colleagues, who agreed that it will meet with the ap- provaI of the United States supreme court, if it gets there.
 Four Years Is Limit
 "The language of the constitution, said Mir. Crozier, clearly indicates that the President is elected for a four year. term, and could not legally re- main in office afternoon, March>4, 1925. If this view is correct, the country would be without President after March in case the election is thrown into Congress and a deadlock there pre- vents an election. \
 There is, I believe, a short cut solu- tion of the constitutional riddle that would be simple, effective and legally sound"

SENATE SLEUTHS
 READY TOCHECK CAMPAIGN FUNDS
Borah Heads Special Group To Sit Through
 out Summer

WASHINGTON, June z. Con- tributions and expenditures in political campaigns will have as much privacy as the average gold fish this summer, as a committee of five senators, working un- ceasingly scrutinizes every cent that goes in and every cent that goes out,
 The Senate has adopted without de bate the EaFsollette resolution provid- ing for publicity in campaign finances, and Senator Borah will head the spe- cial committee, which. also :. includes | Senators Jones, republican, of Wash ington; Shipstead,A rmer-Laborite, of Minnesota Caraway. Democrat, of Ar ington; Shipstead, farmer-laborite, of Delaware. --
 Procedure Not Outlined
 Sessions of the committed probably will not be held until the campaigns get well under way, however, as the ex- act manner in which the committee will function has not yet been outlined. ~
 The committee, however, will have the power to survey the books of both republican and democratis national committees and require reports as to the expenditures and receipts. LaFol- lette put through the resolution chiefly as a restriction, and 1t is not considered likely that the committee will subpoena witnesses or hold public hearings Jin- less some unusual contributions or ex- penditures are brought to their at tention.
 At first there was opposition to La Follette's resolution by those who be- lieved that such publicity would hinder the campaigns of both major parties, but it was apparent that it would re act on both alike.
 The committee will also have power to keep track of expenditures of sena- torial candidates.
 LaFOlIette Made Fight
 LaFollette did not procure passage of his resolution without a fight. In- troduced Thursday, the committee on audit and control to which it was re- ferred, showed no signs of reporting it until he moved to discharge the com mittee Friday night.
 Thereupon the republican majority of the committee reported it out. It was passed without discussion or a record vote.

same possibility for Mir. McAdoo.
 Mrs. Al Smith of New York is an other we'll known woman, and also is the only one of the democratic wom- en who would carry no background of college education, lifelong advantages, etc., to the White House. Mrs. Smith was born on New Years East Side, like her husband. They met in St. James, church in the Old Fourth Ward, and were married there. They lli&ed for years within sight of the Splace where Mrs. Smith was born. They have five children. Emily, girl just be- yond .'flapper" age, is the oldest. Walter, just out of short trousers, is youngest.
 The Richest Possibility
 Mrs. Oscar Underwood, wife of the senator from Alabama, has the dis tinction of being the richest woman in her own right of all democratic first lady possibilities She was Bertha Woodward, with wealthy parents, a Wellesley college education and years opera study in Paris. She was born in Wellsburg, W. Va, but her family moved to Birmingham, Ala, to look after their interests there, and lived on the same block with the Underwoods.

(By Associated Press.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 7.- The last stage of the preconvention period was reached today when the republican t i on Il committee wound up its work of hearing con- testing delegations.
 Party leaders and convention managers, released from the grind of making decision between warning factions, went in for relaxation or surveying u e vice presidential booms which are variously launched and promptly deflated, or waited along as the arriving delegates stir up the political airs.
 Five Rooms Started
 Five vice presidential booms had risen above ordinary mention to- day. The largest and seemingly healthiest was still former Cover nor Lowden's. It had companions, however, in booms for Senator Borah, despite the fact that the senator disowns it, for Secretary Hoover, despite the fact that he also turns in the other direction; for Charles G. Dawes of Chicago, de-
