He intimated that the administration, through it's unofficial representatives, had accomplished what 1t would have been prevented from doing had it sought the consent of the United States senate. Republicans reply to the Democratic charge that the administration showed hesi- tancy and indecision in dealing with Europe, by triumphantly declaring that their plan worked, anyhow The administration had to pursue a devious course, but the desired re- suits were obtained 1t
 This argument would be more convincing if Mir. Coolidge, General Dawes and others had not denied that the administration had anything to do with the sending of the Amer jeans to Europe. If the American experts were sent to Europe by the administration, but the administration for reasons of expedi- ency did not wish to appear to be taking an official part in the separations controversy, why did not the administration maintain a discreet silence about the matter? It was not necessary to blazon to all the world that the American government assumed mo re- sponsibility in the premises. Silence, instead of open and uneqiivocal repudiation, would have done more to strengthen the claim of success for an administration policy than loud asseverations now by campaign spellbinders.

WYE have heard much during the last W ten years about efficiency experts.
 Most of the big commercial and in dustrial enterprises have tried them out. Some of them say that tht efficiency expert is a great promoter of efficiency. Others seem to have been disappointed with the re- sults Maybe there are two kinds of eff ciency experts-good and bad.
 Attleboro, Mass, boasts of two efficiency experts that are worthy of notice. They are man and wife, parents of twelve children, and they are living on $35 week.
 That is a mighty small income for fam fly of fourteen. It is too small an income for a family 50 large. But the father and mother seem to be efficiency experts in mak- ing it go around.
 We are advised that their children have won health prizes, beauty prizes and school prizes. The four oldest daughters are high school graduates, two of them accomplished musicians. Five of. the children are boys, and the parents are planning to send them to college.

Secretary Mellon returns from abroad praising the Dawes plan and predicting that Europe will soon enjoy pre-war prosperity. Other eminent Republicans will, from time to time, lift their voices to claim credit for the work of the expert committees in laying a foundation on which the separations prob lem could be settled So eminent Republi- can as MT. Coolidge leads the chorus of ap- proval. Naturally, his spokesmen and sup porters follow suit. 4'
 The fact that the Dawes committee was expressly disowned by the administration before the committee went to Europe and was adopted only when success seemed as- sured is not troubling the Republicans. They are just as complacent about it as ii the administration mad sent General Dawess Mir. Robertson and MT. Young to Europe with it's fervid blessings and had requested that the cable and the radio be used at every opportunity to keep the White House in- formed of what was going on. This pose is not so extraordinary as 1t might otherwise appear to be, when one remembers that the Republican party claims credit for bumper crops in the grain country and rise in prices caused mainly by the failure of the Canadian wheat crop. A party capable of abrogating to itself responsibility for favor able crop conditions in the United States and the natural working of the law of sup ply and demand, is not above such tactics as have. been employed with respect to its for eign policy.

The American flyers touched parts of the earth's surface, and floated on waters, where loneliness and desolation greet the invader, man. As we noted their progress, names ap- |peared on the charts that we had never heard of before; for brief glimpse strange peoples were brought into view, people who dwell in remote places, and by whom an airplane had never been seen.
 San Diego to Sitka, Alaska; Seward, Chignik and then on to Attu Island, marked the beginning of this Argosy, which did not seek the Golden Fleece, but something infinitely more useful to mankind--a pathway through the skies around the world. Touching the Asiatic mainland at Shanghai, the Americans flew down the coast, thence to Bangkok, Rangoon, Bagdad, Aleppo, Constanti- nople, Bucharest, Vienna, Paris, London and then on to Kirkwall, where they nerved themselves for the "hop" to Ice land. Major Martin was lost in the Ewilds of the Alaskan Peninsula, but was napp1iy rescued; Lieutenant WaQe plane was wrecked on the flight to Ice land, but otherwise extraordinary good luck has followed the American flyers thus far. At last the treacherous wealth CT and the equally treacherous ice in the northern waters were safely passed in the flight from Iceland to Greenland and then back to the American mainland, at Indian Harbor, where the Americans arrived August 31. The remainder of the journey is to be made by easy stages. The undertaking is as good as completed. The Pacific coast will be reached in due time, and no further difficulties are an- ticipated.
 Who does not thrill to the achieve ments of these American pioneers of the air? Who does not envy them the sat- isfaction that is theirs of knowing that their fame will endure and that in after years, when air liners wing their way around the earth, with no more ado than the ocean liners of today girdle the globe by water, the men who first showed the way will be held in honored remenn- brance?

UNDERWOOD MIsREPREsENTs

It must have been the ardor of loren sic effort that led Senator Underwood to such misrepresentation of his own state of Alabama as pervaded his utter ance in behalf of the gubernatorial can didacy of William R. Pattangall of Maine. In no other way creditable to the senator can his words be explained. And even with that charity towards his charge, the people of Alabama know that there is neither justice nor truth in these words of the senator: q come from a state where men and women shudder at night when knock comes at the door, where men do not dare assert freedom of thought, because an invisible hand may fall" It is true that there have been acts of violence in Alabama, but assuredly less than in any neighboring state, and certainly far less than in the states of Illinois, Pennsyl- vania and Louisiana, where certain To- calities have revelled in disorder and civil bloodshed. But nobody believes that even the citizens of Illinois, of Pennsylvania or of Louisiana e'shudder at night" except in those disturbed cen- ters. It is not possible to point to any community in Alabama which is so ter rorized, nor to itemize any but the most sporadic acts that could be blamed to the Klan or any other organization.
 There is no desire to extenuate any acts of violence. Whenever they occur they should be traced down and the per- petrators severely punished. There is no considerable sentiment in this state to the contrary, nor is such sentiment organized. If it is, the senator, absent from this section as he necessarily is for knowledge of conditions that those who live here and are reputed to be terror ized. As a matter of simple fact, there is nothing to it.
