ATTACK STANDOF

PARIS. Aug. 27.-"France can act
alone no longer" the Echo De Paris
said today. summarizing conservative
opinion following the Senate's &C
ceptance Of the London agreement
for settlement of the reparations
question.
All the opposition newspapers car
ried bitter editorials on what they
consider surrender Of the strong for
eign policy of the Poincare govern
ment.
The Echo De Paris saw grave dan
ger in Premier Herriot's stand.
Whom are we following now?"

Sorry Affair

The newspaper described as a
sorry affair" last nights senate de-
bate, in which Poincare and Herriot
fought out their opposing views and
which ended in a complete victory
for the premier,
"Poincare spent all his time JUST.
/ flying his past policy. regretting the
1 policy of the Herriot government md
expressing fears for the future. the
newspaper declared. Item said that
former Minister Cheron and other
supposed supporters Of Poincare
abandoned him when the vote on
Herriot's action came.
1T is not alone in London that
Frenchmen are following a policy of
surrender" the Journal complained.
In general, however. the public
seemed well satisfied that parliamen-
tary approval of the London agree
ment has been completed, believing
that the French position will be
stronger. France is the first nation
to show its full support of the pro-
gram, which Europe hopes will re-
suit in a general settlement Of the
tangled political and economic situa-
ton since the signing Of the treaty
OF Versailles.
Vote Is 204 to 40
The final vote in the Senate was
overwhelmingly in favor Of the pre-
miers action. 204 declaring their
approval and only 40 opposing.
The Poincare forty supporters gen
orally did not vote as the former
premier was placed in the position
that TO support the pact of London
would have been to run counter to
his own Ruhr policy, because of the
provision for evacuation of occupied
territory; TO vote against ii would
be to oppose the Dawes plan on
which the London agreement is
based and responsibility for which
Poincare has always claimed.

Il ELODY and tragedy haunt
I'M the ocean. Some men and
LI women have captured the
haunting tragic spell Of the old devil
ocean and have placed it in fiction
Sometimes not often, a composer
captures what the waves are say
ing. This Is true of Charles Kings
| ley, who not only understands the
ocean, but knows what it says.
Kingsley is noted for his famous
sea coast song, Three Fishers
Went Sailing" Among the new
Victor records is this tragic thing
Of Kingsley. 1t is sung by Kath-
tralto voice.
The singer goes in for the tragic
moods of this weird voyage Of three
fishermen who leave their wives on
the shore. These men know why
they go to sea, beause "men must
work and women must weep" They
| know they have little to earn and
many to keep" And they never
come back.
That's the tragedy which Kathryn
Meisle sings about in Three Fish
ers." This record belongs to the
better class of things. So beauti-
fully tragic does the song become
| that you feel as If the ocean is
reaching out to grab you. But "men
must work and women must weep"
On the other side Meisle sings
afterwards" another thoughtful
piece which has been enriched by
the gorgeous voice Of this artist.
Classical Desert
Only a few people have an OPP
portunity to hear real grand opera
as the two leading seasons are found
In Chicago and New York.
Most of us hear our grand opera
stars on the monographs or at an
occasional concert. Every time that
Titta Ruffo, baritone. releases a new
Victor record I become excited.
Am proud Of one thing, I have
more classical records than jazz. Am
not a high brow. but for years I
have been getting. more and more
understanding out of the better mu-
sic. Jazz does not drive me frantic
Far from it, but it is a pleasure TO
hear Ruffo sing "Lolita-Serenade"
and "Perjura" F'ickle Maiden).
Here are two love songs covered
with Italian and Spanish sauce. Get
my idea? Lolita" is in Italian,
While "Perjura" is a Spanish affair.
Ruffo has a powerful voice, rich and
tfull. Here is a record that adds real
value to any library OF records. You
can purchase this record safely be-
cause it delivers.

SYNOPSIS OF PREVIOUS
INSTALLMENTS

After two defeats as Progressive candi-
date for Governor of Wisconsin, La Fol-
lette is overwhelmingly nominated and
elected in 1900 The political bosses buck
the administration program at every turn.
| They are particularly bitter in their at
taczs on La Toilette and his proposals for
RAILROAD taxation and regulation. The
Legislature passes the bill for railroad
regulation taxation, however. although the
railroad regulation measure is unsuccess-
full. The Progressives' direct primary bill
easily passes the Assembly, and after a
hard battle. finally wins out in the Senate.
too.
This happened in the primary cleo
ton for United States Senator In
Wisconsin in 1908. There were two
Progressives in the field against
Stephenson, both very strong men
I McGovern, afterward Governor, and
State Senator Hatton-and they split
the Progressive vote between them.
Stephenson thus slipped in between
and received a plurality of the votes.
1t was the omission Of the second
choice provision, with the opening K
gave for a man like Stephenson to
spend a large sum of money to Sc
cure his nomination Qhis recorded ex-
penditure was S107, 900, that has fur
nished the chief cause of complaint
against the Wisconsin primary sys-
TEN.
People do not stop to think that
under the old caucus and convention
system the amounts spent in an cleo
ton were often many times as great
and no account was made Of them.
/ A second-choice provision, such as
we now have in Wisconsin. ought to
be the law of every State which has
direct primary.
We needed one thing more in con-
nection with the primary law, and
that was a stringent corrupt prac-
tees act to prevent the corrupt use
Of money in primaries and in cleo
tons.
We tried hard to get such a law
in 1908 We failed at that time. but
Wisconsin now has an admirable
measure which will make it impos-
sible for any candidate TO spend
money as Mr.. Stephenson did in
1908.
Lobbyists Ousted
One other measure Of great i'm
portance also came up strongly in
the session Of 1908. 1t grew direct
iy out of our experience with the
lobby. and was designed to abolish
these corrupt influences which had
for decades controlled legislation in
/ Wisconsin.
We began fighting for such legis-
lation as early as 1897. and urged
it in messages to three different Leg
islatures, bot it was not until 1905

know what arguments are presented
to members of the Legislature to in
duce them to enact or defeat legis-
lation. so that any citizen or body Of
,citizens shall have opportunity, If
they desire, to answer such argu-
ments.
Since I came to the Senate I have
steadfastly maintained the same po-
sition. Again and again I have pro-
tested against secret hearings before
congressional committees upon the
public business.
When the tariff bill on wool and
woolens was in conference between
the two houses in 1911, 3s deter
mined as a member of thu confer
ence that its sessions should be held,
if possible, with open doors. ! waited
upon Senator Bailey. a member of
the committee. and told him I pro-
posed to announce that l should
freely discuss on the floor OF the
Senate any action taken by the COM
mittee, and that if support could be
had I should move to make the
sessions or the committee open and
public.
l was assured by Senator Bailey
that he was heartily in favor of that
course. When the committee met.
Senator Bailey moved that the ses-
siOns be held with open doors OBJ
lection was made. but finally, on a
roll call, the motion carried, the
doors were opened, and the repre-
sentatives Of the newspapers We're
admitted. For the first time in the
history OF Congress a conference
committee transacted its important
business under the eye Of the public.
In great body like the Congress
of the United States nearly all legis-
lation is controlled by committees.
The sanction Of a committee goes a
long WaV.

hundreds of letters from voters Of his

in Congress and assuring him of their
support.
The western counties of Mr. Zihlman's
district, Washington, Allegheny and
Garrett, are depended upon to give
Mr.. Zihlman an overwhelming majority.
Frederick County, the home of his op-
ponent. is looking better for Mr.. Zihl-
man than at any time during the cam
paign. Montgomery County. contiguous
to the District of Columbia, normally
Democratic, Is expected to give Mr..
Zihlman a greater majority than it did
two years ago. Regardless of party
affliation, voters look upon him as a
representative who has achieved sub
stantial results for the District Of Co.
lumbia. in which the residents Of Mont
gomery County are equally interested
with the people Of Washington.
