Presidents Mail brings
Cause for Laughter

Washington, April IF it were
our privilege to read the official mail
of the president of the United States
we would undoubtedly realize the
need of a sense of humor. Those
who know Mr.. Coolidge intimately
vouch for the fact that he does pos
sess this essential qualification. Con-
sidering the history of the last con-
gress the correspondence which
reaches the White House provides
rich soil for laughter if the presi-
dent is so inclined.
For instance, the terms of thirty
two senators will expire March A,
1927. This figure includes twenty
five republicans and even democrats.
Already there are many men in pub
lie life ambitious for these posts.
The principal contenders are now
members Of the house of represent
atives who desire elevation to the
senate.
A senator of the United States is
not elected overnight. Hence, a con-
siderable amount of preliminary or
ganization work is necessary. We
now find congressman canvassing the
local political leaders and writing
the president. In instances where
certain republican senators have vot-
ed against the wishes of the admin
istration, the president finds himself
solicited by members of the house
who need his support to win nomina-
tons in their states. 1t is surprising
the number of men reviving an old
campaign clogan, "Stand by the pres
ident," who actually believe that the
present incumbent of the White
House and the public at large is i'm
pressed by their cry. AS a rule it
is nothing more than political cant
and deceives nobody familiar with
the facts.
President Cautious

clear of fractional fights. 1t is too
early in the season to show any favor
for those seeking public offices.
There is a delightful inconsistency
so characteristic of the professional
politician revealed in these man
euvers. You will recall the names
of senators who let it be known in
public debates and at the White ]
House breakfasts that they were the
representatives of a sovereign t
and therefore were independ- t
ent Of the administrations will in !
matters of legislation. These same
men returning to their own states y
are not so chockful of confidence, t
they are now turning to the White r
House with alibis for their votes c
the administration measures. 0
It is a case where they expect to u
if their friendships were weighed {
n words and not in deeds.

considerable interest in the forth

at these affairs that the democratic
leaders assemble to discuss party
matters. According to well informed
democratic leaders, the Madison
Square Garden convention left sharp
differences which must be wiped out
in the interest of party solidarity.
| Only the spirit Of ~forbearance. the
old game of give-and-take, can patch
up fractional rifles.
It seems logical that a complete
reorganization of the committees
will be brought about as the cam
paigns for congressional Office APP
proach. With a complete turnover
in the house and a third of the SEN
ate up for reelection two years
hence, the democrats have an excel
lent chance in the competition for
control of the legislative body. 1t
all depends upon the history of the
Sixty-Ninth congress and the per-
formance of the present administra-
ton. Public opinion which sways
these affairs is as variable and I'M
certain as the weather.
President Wants Arms Conference
Our international affairs have tax
en- on a new aspect. The president
is apparently determined to call a
conference on the limitation of arms.
The attitude Of France has compli-
Gated the situation somewhat. Late
advices from diplomatic channels in
dicates that the French will eventu-
ally participate due more to economic
than any other cause. The
United States holds the purse strings
and European countries would prob
find it difficult to borrow if the
federal government frowned on their
negotiations. If you have ver tried
TO extend your notes or raise more
money at the bank, you will under
stand the need of good will to the
nan with the cash.

Crows are pestiferous in some az. ricultural states where bounties are offered for their destruction, Kansas paying ten cents for each head and Oklahoma paying 10 cents for each pair of feet, according to recent report. Without desiring to suggest anything savoring of duplicity, it would not be surprising if some per- sons in the border counties might make each crow yield 20 cents by cashing heads in one state and feet in the other.
