Money Standard on New
 French Loan to Change

Paris. July R)-Le Journal says that Finance Minister CaillauX will fix the issue price of the new gold loan at a figure sensibly lower than The present value of the dollar, his idea being to insure to subscribers an effective yield of about 4 F per cent, which they would not get if the certificates were allotted on the basis of the present dollar cx change rate, 22 francs. The dollar rate Is expected by financial circles to be even higher in the next few days, but with improvement in the franc later. The present fall of the franc is ascribed mainly to the re- uuirements of importers of cereals and copper Many of these, count ing on an improvements in French currency, put off obtaining the needed exchange and were obliged to buy fin a hurry at the last mo- ment, forcing prices upward, in view of the limited supply.

SHEPARD SITTING
 IN S0U7H|NGTON
Resignation of Judge Fitzpatrick .,. in Effect Today
Especial to tho Herald0

southington, July 2--The resigna- ton of Hal D. Fitzpatrick as judge of the police court in Southington goes into effect today. Judge Fitz- patrick sent in his resignation to Governor John H, Trumbull last week asking that 1t be accepted on July 2. He stated that he was going to Detroit to engage in the practice of law in that city.
 Judge Fitzpatricks successor has not yet been selected and in the in- terim, Deputy Judge Lewis Shepard, who is also tax collector for the town, will preside on the bench in the police court.
 Efforts are being made 10 have Judge Thomas Welch take the posi- ton of judge in Southington again, but Judge Welch stated last night that he has not yet decided 10 take the offer Judge Welch occupied the bench before Mir. Fitzpatrick, who was prosecuting attorney at the time. He was recognized as one of She fairest and most popular judges in the state and he has many friends who regretted his resignation from the bench.
 Judge Welch is judge Of probate for the town at the present time and besides this, Is counsel for a number of the factories in southington. He feels that his time is well taken up with his many duties and would rather have some one else take the judgeship, if such thing were pos sible. The number of lawyers in southington is small and of the few remaining, there appears 10 be a dearth of material for the position on the bench.

POLITICS OR BUSINESS

There is something refreshing in the charges
made against the forest service by Frank j. Ha-
genbarth, president of the National WoolgroWers'
association He finds the service is wrongly or
ganized, but when he tells the world so, he takes
the trouble to add that there is nothing the mat
ter with the personnel The whole fault hes with
the system.
Now this is the way a business man would at
tack n ordinary problem in private life, and since
Mr. Hagenbarth is a business man, it ought not
to be surprising that he takes this method OF pro-
cedure But the forest service is public busi-
ness and for some inexplicable reason, most men
in Hagenbarths position would have preferred
series of charges that, if true, would have put
every living member of the forest service In the
penitentiary.
Or course, the forest service system is wrong
from the cattle and sheep mems point of view
Their interests have been an afterthought. The
first consideration in establishing the forest serv
ice was the forest itself Laws have been passed
with that in view and when the grazing problem
was added it was not handled properly in congress
There is no reason this should not be rectlfied.
And it is far safer guess that it will be rect1s
fled when those who are aggrieved approach 1t
from the angle taken by the sheep mems assocla-
ton than it would be from an angle of sensational
charges.
Which goes to prove that Mr.. Hagenbarth IS
not a politcian.-Tucson Star

OUR POOR POLITICIANS

Judged by the income tax returns made public
one had better be mucker in mine than United
States senator or congressman or governor OF Arl-
IONA: the total contribution of the two senators,
the congressman and the governor is less than
500, the governor paying no tax at all, his salary
being exempt There seems something radically
wrong about this and those Of us who Do pay our
taxes would like to know just how these gentle
men manage to get off practically scot free. The
senators and congressman get $500 a year each
and the governor $4,000 and there are some tasty
little perquistes appertaning to all four offices
the people would like to be told just why these
gentlemen, estimable though they may be- don't
have to pay just the as the rest of us.
They appear to have done some nifty figuring.
too for Senator Ashurst figured his tax at S45l2,
Senator Cameron computed his at S27, and Con-
gressman Hayden managed to get his figure UP to
S4690 The boys might at least have made 1t
even money all around for if memory serves, none
of 'em has lot of dependents. 1t looks as though
our old friend Eli Perkins might find something
to get busy about in these cases.-Jerome News.
