BRIBERY DUE To
|. c. D. ?. POLICY,
SAYS BRYAN
Commoner Points Out Danger
of Government Granting
Privileges to Rich.
By WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN.

BY WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN.
Too much emphasis is being
placed on the criminality of indi-
viduals and too little upon the Gov.
ernmental policy that invites crime
by the granting Of privileges to
favorites. Comparatively few pub
lice men support policy that. by
comforting great financial benefits
upon favorites, subjects officials to
powerful temptations to which some
yield.
For many years Republican lead.
erS have been in the habit Of col
lecting large contributions from the
privileged classes and then paying
back those contributions in legis-
lation. 1t has been a public scan
DIAL for many years but the public
has never been fully informed as
to the facts. The oil investigation
has revealed the circumstances sur
rounding a particular transaction,
one OF the most shocking in the
political history Of the country, but
1t Is only an Illustration of a vici-
Gus policy and the amount given to
the oil companies was small com
pared with larger amounts that
have been voted out Of the pockets
of the people.
The burden put upon the public
hV the last tariff law has been
estimated at three or four billions
more than five-sixteenths of which
goes in the pockets of protected
interests. That sum would pay the
Presidents salary for something
like thirty thousand years.
The greatest value of the oil in,
vestigation will not be found III
the punishment of a few criminals
but in awakening the mass of tho
people to the menace of the policy
upon which the reactionary Repub.
lican leaders act. 1t is based upon
The theory that society is suspended
from the top and that the Govern
nent should legislate for the we'll
to-do and let the people wait until
that prosperity leaks through or
those below.
The Republican policy is to give
the benefit to the rich directly and
let the poor wait to get their bene
fits indirectly from the rich. IL is
vicious policy and should be re-
pudiated at the polls. because il
Concentrates wealth and invites cor
runtiCn of officials.
The Republican party should de
clare moratorium on the dehts
that it owes 10 predatory wealth

BAN ON OYSTERS
FAT TENED BY
WATER
Pennsylvania Ruling Protects
Buyers From ''BIoated"
BiVaIVes.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Feb. 29.-
Director James Foust. of the State
bureau Of foods, has started war
anew on the ''fattened" oyster, Civ.
ing out ruling that oysters placed
in water to "bloat" them are to be
barred from sale.
This is the result Of investigation
| OF complaints that water oysters
are being sold. Only the water the
oyster brings with 1t is salable, and
ice may not even be placed in the
container. The worst offenders
have been people in western coun.
ties, especially Pittsburgh, according
to reports.
Conference Shapes Policy.
The new policy was agreed upon
at a conference Of State and local
food officials in the office of DR..
J. c. Mcneil. director Of food con.
troll work in Pittsburgh. At the
conference We're w. s. Frisbie, Of
the United States Bureau Of Chem.
istry; H. j. Humphrey, Of the Buff
falo station bureau of chemistry; DIR.
F. T. Aschman. State chemist;
James w. Kellogg, director Of the
State bureau Of chemistry, Harris
burg: Chief Patton, Of the Pitts
burgh bureau of chemistry, and
James Foust, director Of the bureau
Of foods, department Of agriculture,
of Pennsylvania.
The officials are actuated in the
policy by the high price being
charged for oysters, 1t being their
opinion that when the consumer
buys oysters he should get what he
paiys for, and not a lot of water.
The aid of the courts will be In
voked in enforcement Of the new
regulation.
Text Of Regulation.
The regulation. as far as Pennsyl.
vania is concerned, is officially pro.
mulgated and reads as follows:
Revised oyster ruling officially
promulgated by the bureau Of foods,
Pennsylvania department of agricul.
ture. On and after March /, 1924,
proceedings will be instituted in all
cases where evidence is obtained
that oysters are sold, offered for
sale, or in possession with intent to
sell, in the State Of Pennsylvania,
which have been adulterated by the
addition of water; and in all cases
a charge Of adulteration will be
made where oysters are found which
upon examination show more than
10 per cent Of free liquor obtained
by draining the oysters for a period
of two minutes in a colander or
other suitable utensil."

RADICAL YOUTH

Son Of University Head Up

ROCHESTER,, N. T., Feb. o.
The advanced ideas" of Rush
Rhees, jr., son Of the president of
the University of Rochester, have
caused him to be barred from the
second semester Of his ethics class
at the university. His ideas are
said to have conflicted with those
Of DR.. G. M. Forbes, head Of the
philosophy department. The stu
dent is eighteen years old. His
father and mother are shocked.
1.-THE most unsatisfactory note
book for the years work I have
ever had turned in to me-" DR..
Forbes told his class of seventy,
five students, referring to young
Rhees' work.. "It attempted refu-
tation Of everything had taught
during the year"
Young Rhees said the Professors
action was "a blessing"
II am a radical. DIR. Forbes Is
not. That is why am barred from
the course" the student said.
IAN Anarchist does not believe
in law. Neither do 1. Therefor,
say that law is directly opposed
to any notion of ethics. Law is a
system of compulsion, and does
away with any individual decision.
There can be no real moral
law There are some men who
crave authority. Let them have it,
They have no need Of judgment.
Some say that law exists to pro-
mote good will. 1t is possible that
by so doing 1t also promotes stag
| nation. Law is a substitute, be.
cause of the breakdown Of ethical
ideals.
THE note book takes the place
of the examination in this course
Statements like these aroused pro.
fessorial displeasure. From a Puri.

From the Forbes course in ethics
have transplanted myself to Pro-
fessor Muehlman's course in the
history of religion. When Profess

a new way to arrange their hair,
suggest the bob And, OF
course, they are delighted,
But why shouldn't I be diplo.

cluded Charles.
Henri is slightly less optimistic
He is of the opinion that such q
bob is not at all bad when &C
companied with a wave, but is
most unimpressive when left
straight and flat.
Sometimes women come in tC

the hair because 1 feel that they

not wear their hair short. But, II

By HELEN FOX,


NEW YORK, Feb. 29.-Middle.
aged matrons are permitting the
ghearing Of their silver tresses and
are wearing a 'noyish bob" very
much like that of their flapper
daughters.
A survey made today among New
FORKS fashionable hair-cutters, dis.
closed the fact that almost half of
the bobbing done is performed upon
heads which arc frequently white,
very often gray. and innumerable
times just beginning to fade.

In their comments upon bobbed

the Breveort barber shop, and

that a haircut :ends to make a
woman look at least ten years
younger.
But then, of course, as suggest.
cd by both tonsorial artists, that
Isl not sufficiently good reason for
q dignified matroa to make q trip

: Her hair is probably falling out
And Henri or Charles gracefully
Suggest that cutting will save it.
And when it is scattered in little
punches on the floor, and madam
turns her head before the triple
mirrors, she frequently murmurs
'How young it makes me look! ]
never thought 1t would do that!'
Are middle-aged women bobbing
their hair?" Charles repeated the
question put to him, and, being
French, gestursd with the shears
he held in his hand. ITEMS. Come

SANTOS, Brazil, August 7.-Presi-
dent Bernardes' approval of the con-
gressional resolution establishing
moratorium of 45 days in the state OF
Sac Paulo has enabled the banks and
other large business houses to start
the work of reconstructing their COM
merclal affairs. The decree was the
result of conferences and agreements
between the largest financial inter
ests OF Sac Paulo. both national and
foreign. 1t is expected to bring quick
financial equilibrium and enable busi-
ness to adjust the losses caused by
the revolution and allow new credit
arrangements where necessary.
state officials are proceeding quietly
IN the establishment of order and
the apprehension of the leaders of
the revolt, The different military
units are returning to their original
posts from Sac Paulo City, which
again is normal The streets of the
town have resumed their former civil
activities.
Inquiry Is Ordered.
A military inquiry into the causes
OF the uprising has been ordered 0y
Minister of War Setembrino de Car
valho, who has named various army
off1cers to conduct courts martial at
the barracks at Sac Paulo: Among
the prisoners taken during the upris-
ing was young woman, Amelia
Machado, who attempted to fly an
airplane over the Governors palace
at Sac Paulo and bomb it.
No further trouble is anticipated
from the former rebels. Their leaders
are reported as abandoning Eleir com
mands and fleeing to the border of
Paraguay, carrying funds seized
while the rebels were in control OF
Sac Paulo. 1t is apparent that the
sole object of the revolution leaders
was to seize the government and state
funds.
