LA TOILETTE STAYS HERE.
Senator to Perfect Party Ma
chinery Before Speaking.

The setting up of a political ma
chine for the La Follette-Wheeler
Independent presidential campaign is
to be completed, under present plans
of its sponsors, before the Senators
embark upon an extensive speaking
program. Although this may delay
the start of the speech making until
September, leaders in the movement
expressed the opinion today that the
plan would enable the candidates to
make more effective use of their ef-
forts.
Senator La Toilette. meanwhile. has
put off his contemplated return to
Madison, his home, in order to remain
the functioning of the new organiza-
ton. A speakers bureau will be or
ganized shortly in the Chicago CEN
trail office of the campaign to study
the tactical advantages Of putting
orators, including the presidential
candidates, into the different regions.
May Answer Dry Attack.
Senator La Toilette and his leading
supporters, immersed in campaign
work of this nature, and in consid-
ering the possible Endorsement of con-
greSsiona candidates, refuse to take
notice for the time being of attacks
launched by temperance organizations
on the candidates dry" status. Sena-
tor La Toilette was said, however, to
have voted against the Volstead act
upon prohibition that might be made
the object of public statement later in
the campaign, but to hold the general
position that prohibition could not be
considered paramount to other issues
raised by the new movement.

woman, speaking in support of the
candidacy of Mr. McAdoo for the
Democratic nomination, cried down
the assertion that Senator La Toilette
would draw from the McAdoo strength
it was then argued by opponents
of the McAdoo candidacy that with
La Toilette in the field it would be
idle to nominate McAdoo since both
relied upon the support of railroad
and other organized labor.
Not a woman, said the lady from
Mississippi, would support La Fol-
lette, because, she charged, he was
a wet" and his record had so
stamped him. How effective this
charge against the La Toilette can
didacy will be remains to be seen. 1t

INSPECTS EMBASSY.

PARIS, July 29.-Secretary Of State
Hughes and Mrs. Hughes, who ar
rived in Paris last evening from Lon
don, began the day by inspecting, in
company with Ambassador Herrick
the new American embassy, over
which the Stars and Stripes were
raised for the first time since Inde-
pendence day.
The visitors expressed themselves
as highly pleased with the location
of the embassy. The work of reno
waiting and decorating the interior of
the mansion has not yet been done,
but Ambassador Herrick was able to
give his chief an idea of what the
new official American home in
France will look like when COM
pleted.
After this visit Secretary and Mrs.
Hughes took a drive around the
town prior to taking lunch with NJ
Jusserand, French Ambassador to the
United States. This was an intimate,
informal affair.
While they were at the embassy a
steady stream of callers kept the por-
ter of the Herrick household busy
opening the door. Secretary Hughes
received all the visitors he could, but
is finding it impossible to see more
than a small proportion of those
anxious to have a word with him.

PARIS, July 29.-Lawyers, whose
diplomas are sealed by an authority
of conscience which is higher than
that Of any government" must fur
nish the leadership for the democra-
cies of the world, for "if we are true
TO our profession, we are the apostles
of progress" Secretary of State
Hughes declared at the reception of
the Paris Bar Association to the
American lawyers who are visiting
Paris.
Mr.. Hughes, as president Of the
American Bar Association, thanked
the French bar for their invitation
to the American lawyers and for their
hospitality to them.
Value to Democracy.
Speaking as a lawyer to lawyers,
he emphasized the need for democ-
racy of the expert service of law
yers of broad vision, of those who
are trained in the law but are neither
overwhelmed by their learning nor
governed by its technicalities.'
Our systems of law are unlike in
some respects" Mr.. Hughes told his
French colleagues. Our methods of
administration present certain strik-
ing differences, but our sense of unity
of purpose is so profound that these
differences merely excite sympathy,
interest and a desire to understand
their historic causes and effects"
Same in Fundamentals.
Commenting on how much alike
were the results attained by different
processes, the American statesman
declared: 'In what is fundamental
our conceptions of what one ought
TO enjoy, what one owes to his neigh
Dor and what constitutes social
wrong and essential public Justice
we are very much the same.
Your methods of trials are not
like ours, but in our controlling
thought we erect substantially the
same standards of guilt. According
nounce in similar cases similar judg-
mentS. We come to worship with
you in the invisible temple of justice,
that great edifice which represents
the best thoughts of all peoples of all
times"

Hughes and his American and Cana
dian colleagues were received by
Manuel Fourcade, head of the Paris
Bar Association. NJ. Fourcade. in ad-
dressing the visitors, said:
This is a most impressive occasion.
1t is a meeting of men of law of diff
ferent countries having different
forms of judicial procedure, but all of
whom are imbued with the same lofty
idea of what is right and just what is
iniquitous."
Turning to Mr.. Hughes. NJ. Four
cade added: You justly remarked in
London, The world is thirsty for JUS
tice and peace, but there can be no
peace in iniquity." NJ Fourcade said
he was glad to affirm these truths
before great judges from America.
He concluded with a tribute to Amer
lean and Canadian aid to France dur

Although it Is admitted on all sides

agenda to the strictly economic ques-

nevertheless the problem of with

whether the LaFollette group would
favor Dawes or Bryan-make your
own guess.
Having gone so far for the sake
Of argument, let US keep on and as
sumo that both chambers have re-
manned in deadlock from February IL
to March and have failed TO elect
either President or vice president.
There Is therefore no President to
swear in as successor TO President
Coolidge when his term expires. There
is no vice president to be sworn in
and automatically become President.
The new house is seated that day.
| Thirty senatorial seats are filed.
But with no President and no vice
president to inaugurate what happens
Is the United States for the first
time since April 80, 1859, without a
President?
Or does Secretary of State Charles
Evans Hughes automatically become
President Hughes?
The Constitution provides that "the
congress may, by law, provide for the
case Of removal, death, resignation,
or inability both OF the President and
vice president, declaring what officer
shall then act as President, and such
officer shall act accordingly, until the
disability be removed or a President
shall be elected"
The Presidential succession act, ap-
proved January 10, 1885, provides that
the succession shall pass to the mem
bers of the cabinet in the following
order: Secretaries Of State, Treas
ury and War, Attorney General, Post
master General, Secretary of the
Navy.
In the event of Secretary Hughes
becoming President, would he serve
the full term of four years? Or has
! congress the power to order a special
Presidential election? And-in case
either chamber were Republican by
a decisive majority-would congress
order such an election?
This is puzzle story, not a politi-
| cal screed, but
Would II not be interesting II
Charles E. Hughes, who resigned from
the Supreme court only to be defeated
for President in 1915, should thus
achieve his ambition?
