University Students
Choose Officers In
Spirited Election

Harold Gilbert. OF Lander. was
last Friday selected president OF the
Associated Students Of the Univers-
ity of Wyoming in the most spirited
and hotly contested election ever
held at the State University. Eleanor
Chatterton, of Riverton. was elected
secretary, Albert Nussbaum, Pine
Bluffs. Louis Schilt, Rawlins, were
elected students delegates at large
and Ralph Conwell, Daniel, and
Fred Penland, Bags, we're chosen
editor OF the Branding Iron and
Business Manager of the Branding
Iron respectively. Arthur Taliaferro
Rock Springs. was elected without
opposition to the Office of vice pres
ident. About approximately 500
students voted In last weeks student
election which was by far the hard
est fought election recorded at the
State University.

Ford Sales Pass Three
Quarter Million Mark

Car and truck deliveries alone
show increase of 102,15S over last
year. May has opened with a big
ger demand for Ford products than
any month so far this year, the Ford
Motor Company announced here to-
day. Ford retail sales in the U. S.
during the first ten days of May
averaged 1855 daily, exceeding the
last ten day period of the record
breaking sales month Of April. and
indicating the continued upward
trend of the market.
Figures just compiled show a total
of 757,023 Ford units retailed to
customers from January LIST to and
including May 10th, Of which Ford
car and truck deliveries alone show
a gain Of 102,158 over the same
period a year ago.
With the increases already attain
ed this month and with the present
outlook for business the company
anticipates a new high sales figure
in May.

LEGATION sent broadcast throughout
the state last week. The student
paper is eight pages in size and con
tains numerous illustrated articles
of great interest to graduates as we'll
as prospective students Of the State
University.
Among the many evidences of the
remarkable growth of the state in
stitution recorded in the University
booster edition is the fact that the
enrolment at the University of Wy
oming has increased approximately
800 per cent during the last eight
years; that since the founding Of the
school in 1887 the faculty has in
creased in size from seven to the
present one hundred and fifty-three
.Ed that the freshman class is to-
day fifty times the size OF the fresh
man class OF little more than a gen.
Grafton ago. Optimistic forecasts Of
football and basketball victories I'M
der the new varsity coaches and a
review Of the national debate record
established during the past two
years by the Wyoming forensic ar
lists are likewise given prominent
mention in last weeks Branding
Iron. Descriptive articles concern
ing the new library building and
the new gymnasium are among
other features of the student publ
cation. The Cowboy boxers. three
years conference champions, and the
marvellous record of the wrestlers
are given mention in q front page
story, as is the story Of the growth
Of the University summer school
from an enrolment of 34l in 1919
to Ills in 1923.
Among the other items OF general
interest to friends of the University
is he fact that the physical training
department under the supervision of

test. 1t is argued that he won both
ship practically by default-that Is,
as the result of splits in the Repub-
lican ranks and that, %S1le he has
done nothing and made no enemies,
he is too old to be elected to the
presidency with reasonable hope
that he would live out his term. To
the outsider the boom of AL Smith,
Governor OF New York, looks vigor-
Gus just now-but lot to the in
slider. There are reasons for the
activity Of the Smith boom just now,
however. One is the anxiety Of the
New York Democrats to cinch the
elimination of McAdoo. The other
is the determination of Tammy to
exercise sufficient influence in the
convention to enable 1t to dictate to
the successful candidate.
That Senator Borah will play a
conspicuous part in the Republican
convention seems assured. The best
Judgment Just now Is that he will
either be chosen permanent chair
man. in which event he would make
the keynote speech. or that he will
be selected to- nominate MI. Cool
idge.. The fact that he Is a pro-
gressive. albeit a sane one, is pretty
certain to make him at least an i'm
portant factor. Mr.. Coolidge Is
working assiduously on the draft of
the platform and there is every rea-
son to expect that he will be nomin-
ated very much on his wi platform,
whether It is entirely pleasing to
the other party leaders or not.
ut rs incredible that a system Of
taxation which permits a man with
an income of $1,000 900 to pay not
a cent to the support of his Govern
ment should remain unaltered," de-
clares Secretary Mellon in his new
book, on taxation, but that Is pre-
cisely the situation which the Demo-
Gratis who are fighting the Mellon
plan are trying to perpetuate. The
Democratic minority declared in
their report that 1.-THE value of all
tax-exempt securities held by these
d~ecedents with gross estates Of ST.
S79,372,16S) was not sufficient to
pay the funeral and administrative
expenses" Mr.. Mellon comes back
with the official record of the es-
tate tax OF the late William Rookie
Teller. His estate comprised $44,-
900, 900 of tax-exempt securities and
only $1,000, 900 of Standard Oil
stock. While alive he paid taxes on
an income of perhaps $42e,0O0
from his Standard Oil stock, but did
not pay n penny of taxation on an
income Of probably $~1,76O,OOO in
vested in tax-exempt securities. This
is what Secretary Mellon would have
but which the Democrats
and the insurgents are fighting to

stories about Jake lannon's alleged
buying Of the Harding nomination.
She might-and probably would
have told Senator Walsh that 1t was
all bunk-as 1t was.
The federal grand jury Is sitting
on the oil cases in Washington and
Senator Pomerene and Owen Rob-
erts, the special Government coun-
sci, are presenting the facts on
which they will ask indictments.
Technically, the case Is now known
as 1.-THE United States against AL
bert B. Fall" Considering the in
tricacies Of the case and the rami-
fications of the evidence, competent
judges declare there is no basis for
criticism on the Presidents special
counsel on the ground OF undue de-
lay. The charge OF contempt of the

refusal to testify will be argued i'm

courses in physical training and ed
ucaiton which will be unexcelled in
the entire collegiate west.
In addition to articles OF historic
and traditional interest is an edi-
torial headed "A Balanced Institu-
ton" After mentioning briefly
the acquisition of the new library
and gymnasium, Editor G. Edward
Pendray makes the following COM
ment:
1.-TWO new buildings in n year
will be the record Of the University
this season. Two new buildings,
but something more than two new
massive additions to the available
class and study space of the Uni
versity. One is a library, heart Of
all scholastic life, and housing the
food upon which scholarship must
feed. The other is a gymnasium, as
important as the library in the edu-
cational field, emphasizing the value
Of a strong mind In a sound body.
Thus the University has grown, not
along any one line OF development
to the exclusion or comparative ne
elect of another, but with balance
and poise. attending to both the
mental and physical education of her
students.
