farmer with :. false pretense of benefits to flow from tariffs on his products. When the price of wheat and corn fell after the enactment of mat law, the speaker continued, the promised relief was seen to be pure political fiction" The action of President Coolidge in approving an increase in the tariff on wheat was characterized as an "ad- ditional sop" to the farmer.
 Pointing out that the price of wheat had fallen after this tariff increase, Mir. Davis said that surely "the day when the framer can be lulled to rest by nominal tariff on the commodities of which he has a surplus to sell abroad, is passed for ever."
 "The same economic blindness has affected the foreign policies of the re- publican party" the speaker went on. At the bottom of the European problem lies, and has lain ever since the armistice, the question of repara- lions In 1919 President Wilson asked permission of Congress to appoint an American representative on the repa- ration commission. In a spirit of par tisan jealousy 1t was denied. And for five long years, so far as we were con. cerned, we left that question to be- devil the economic life of Europe and delay the hour when Germany and the other defeated nations might be re- stored to health and be able once more to contribute to the economic prosper iW of the world.
 Loud Self-Praise
 To-day we hear from those most responsible for this state of affairs, loud praise and self 'congratulation over the fact that Americans participated in the recent reparations conference that brought forth the sO-called Dawes report. That report is even claimed as diplomatic victory for an admin istration that time and time again dis claimed in most positive terms all re- sponsibility for the presence of General Dawes and his colleagues, or any par ticipation in the preparation of their report.
 "I haxe on desire to decry that re- port, and I have every wish that it may prove a step along the way. l am not even disposed to doubt what these say who talk as if it were the end of the journey instead of merely the first milestone. But I resent the belated attempt to capitalize it's possibilities as Ia political asset.
 "If Americans have, in fact, hy their unofficial presence accomplished or aided in this result, it lays q crushing burden of blame on the shoulders of these who for five long years pre- vented any form of American partici- pation."
 "If we eliminate from political de- bate" MT. Davis added, "every question that is either national in it's scope or

ball fans in the capital. He slipped away from the executive offices the other day, and carried the whole corps of White House correspondents with him. He receives inning g-by-inning re- ports of the games when he is unable to go.
 The sport which makes all the world kin has made different place out of the capital, now that the local team, after hanging down in the low CT sections of the American league for years, has at last come into its own. Men and women turn to one another on the street car and discuss the days game, and the prospects. It has had a .humanizing effect. Most any place downtown these days can be found knots of friends gath cred, arguing and gesticulating about this play and that. Every player has become a hero. Walter Johnson, the veteran of many campaign, comes in, perhaps, for the greatest amount of praise. Clerk talks to neighboring clerk about the team. It's the subject sof discussion in the soda founts, the hotel lobbies, and in the corner drug store.
 Long before the game starts in the afternoon, those who are unable to go, gather around the numerous score boards about the city. Other thousands crowd the street cars. and buses to the ball park. Despite the intense heat and the holiday attractions elsewhere, there were 21 900 fans at the morning game Labor Day, usually very slimly attended, and larger crowd in the afternoon.
 'I never saw anything like the in terest here" sport writer who has covered big league games throughout the circuit, said.
 Baseball even crowded itself into the the evening talk of the grey-beards who form the oldest inhabitants associa- tion of the district the other night shunting aside the heavier dischssion which usually marks the meetings of this unique organization. One member recalled, proudly, that Washington had a winning ball team back in 1883 when it won the pennant of the East ern Association. Few people remember this. It, was news. To the intense fans of today the resent team is the only winners

LEADERS
 TO MAP DRIVE FOR LA TOILETTE
Will Meet Monday In Washington To Co.,
 ordinate Efforts

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-The La Toilette Wheeler presidential campaign is rapidly shaping into form for an aggressive, intensive drive for votes.

 Labor leaders supporting the 1nde- pendent ticket will meet here Monday to coordinate work of the unions and prevent duplication of effort. Senator La Toilette will address the meeting and discuss the progress of the cam paign.
 Reports reaching headquarters here on Senator Wheelers tour of New Eng land are regarded as livery satisfac- tory" by the campaign managers.
 The itinerary of Senators La Fol lette and Wheeler is still held in abey- ance, but it is understood to include wide area of the country with num- erous speeches. The exact date for starting the western campaign has not been fixed. It is probable that Senator La Follete will make another radio speech before starting his tour as the managers are highly gratified with the reaction of his Labor Day address.
 Among those who will attend the conference there Monday of labor lead CTS are representatives of the non-par- tisan political committee of tn Amer ican Federation of Labor; Warren S. Stone, president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers; T. c. Cashen, secretary of the Switchmen's Union of North America J. A.

 If the authority now vested in the supreme court were transferred to the Congress, any majority no matter what their motive could vote away any of these most precious rights. Majorities are notoriously irresponsible. After ir- |reparable damage had been done the only remedy that the people would have would be the privilege of trying to de- feat such majority at the next cleo tion. Every minority body that may be weak in resources or unpopular in the public estimation, alsn nearly every race and religious belief would find themselves practically without prOtec- tion, if the authority the supreme court should be broken down and its powers lodged with the Congress.
 "At a time when all the world is seeking for the adjudication of diff ferences between nations, not by war, but by reason, the suggestion that we should limit the jurisdiction of our domestic courts is reactionary in the highest degree. It would cast aside the progress of generations to begin again the contest for supremacy between ex- ecutive and legislature. Whichever side has won in that struggle, the people have always lost.

Shows Willingness To Co., operate With Senate
 Committee Tn Task
(Washington Bureau)

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-Repre- sentative Lamar Jeffers of the Fourth Alabama district, returning to Wash ington today, indicated willingness to collaborate with the senate committee raised to investigate the department of the treasury and to turn over to that committee all the information he se- cured for his own expose the last ses- sion of congress.
 MT. Jeffers assumes that as Senator Couzens of Michigan, chairman, appears anxious to press the investigation to the greatest extent possible, his demo- cratic colleagues, Senators King of Utah and Jones of New Mexico, will be supporting him, give him, majority power over the committee, the two re- maining republican members of which have displayed a lack. of enthusiasm regarded as significant.
 sThat is a great field for inyestiga. tion," said Mir. Jeffers today. "Ths very greatest from the standpoint of na- tional good, and from the standpoint oi advantage to. the Democratic party. have information proving to my satis' faction that great favoritism has been shown by treasury officials in making refunds from income taxes paid by the very rich.
 : If the committee goes to work and does not narrowly circumscribe its in 'vestigation, I will heartily collaborate Otherwise, I will repeat my demand of last session that the house raise a spe- cia1 committee to go into the very depths of the treasury situation. Mir. Jeffers has returned early in or der to make arrangements for putting his son in school. He will attend the national convention of the American Legion in St, Paul September 10. In October he will respond to any call from the national committee, or will return to Alabama to assist Represents tive Miles c.

WASHINGTON Sept. 6.-This dignified city, which sits quietly month in and month out in it's white solemnity and gets a. wee bit ruffled only occasionally by some political up- heayal, has tumbled from its pedestal. It has gone ravink. mad over baseball.
 "How's the gamer" is the big gues- tion of the hour, from the lowliest clerk in the government departments to high officials. Politics has been showed out of sight, for the moment. There'Il be time enough for that after the Senators have annexed the grand old rag, and then taken the worlds series--all of which is the firm, prediction of this townful of fans. e.
 Even Coolidge!
 Everybody here has the fever. Even President Coolidge is strickland that means something. The President has never taken great interest in baseball. He used to play one-old-cat as boy, but the worlds work pushed the game aside, for years. Now it's in his blood again.
 He had the team up to the White House recently, and congratulated them on the race they have been making, and urged them forward. The members, from the brisk young manager, Stan Harris, to the old fox, Walter John son, stood about the Presidents desk shyly, and accepted his praise. After ward they filed out on the back lawn, and had their pictures struck with Coolidge. Johnson showed the Presi- dent how he grips the ball for his curves.
 Harris took occasion, as he was 1eav. ing the White House, to make a state ment, as is the custom of callers. He announced that Joe Judge. crack first Baseman, would be out of the game for several days due to his bruised ankle.
 world akin has made different place
 The rest of the city is baseball crazy. Government clerks, who get 30 days leave, are taking it in trips to the ball park. Business men are mysterious ly absent from their offices. Officials of the government can be seen in the grandstands, bowling with ~the most rabid fans.

the consideration of the entire problem to an impartial, non-partisan, compe- tent commission under economic guid- ance.
 Il believe that it is the duty of men in office and the business of political parties to face responsibility and not to shirk it. Enough evidence has been already gathered to furnish a basis for there is something lacking in the ad- culture which exists for that purpose. What the republican, administration is seeking to evade, is decision on matters of principle, and from this no commission can furnish an escape"

Remarkable New Discovery >
 Proving Boon to Thousands

Memphis, Tenn.-Application for pa-. tent covering what is considered to be the most unique discovery of it's kind has just been made by the Eureka Manufacturing Co.,, 253-J Jefferson Ave-, Memphis, Tenn. After years of experiment they discovered that an especially constructed,. chemically treated set of heel plates, one zinc and one copper, plated in the shoes of the sufferer will, by a scientific process, quickly rid the wearer of rheumatic pain, sciatica and stiff joints, as we'll as tone up the system in general. Ex- periments in hundreds of cases have proved this discovery to be a boon to all sufferers of the above ailments, especially as it eliminates theg use of medicine which, in many instancess proves to be of only temporar$ value.

 "The constitution of the United States has for its almost sole purpose the protection of the freedom of the people. We must combat every attempt to break down or to make it easy, under the pretended guise of legal pro- cedure, to throw open the way to re- action or revolution. To adopt any other course is to put in jeopardy the sacred right to life, liberty, property, and the pursuit of happiness"
