COOLIDGE PLEADS FOR ECONOMY

Washington Jan. 80. (Ap)--At a seni.ann,Ia President Coolidge renewed his plea for economy and efficiency under the general program of constructive economy. Hc said that the system Of economy has d;ne more than reduce the of government. but he saw in the policy example the world In governmental administration. He further said that si:ce June, nineteen twenty.one the government was run perfectly efficient and the results were tre. mcntoas and overwhelming in significance He suggested that the part played by the government in is own household and in the world affairs was net completed unless reinforced by adhesion to the World Court. Director Lord of the Budget Bureau described the economy plan for federal expenditures Lord announced that he proposed to issue charter to one per cent club to which all government ofll cinls were eligible to membership. Their duties will hc to reduce all government expenditures one per cent. The per cent cub last year failed by three million dollars to sayr the amount of thirty. eight million set by Coolidge. He dealt on economy consistent with ciicieny, saying "No civilized coun- try would close the schools, abolish the courts, dis band the police force, discontinue the fire iepart- mcnt. Such action would in irreparabIe loss The underlying principle Is obtain better cduca. t1on, a wider administration of iuStiCe pub- lie order. greater security from confagration, which will come from superior organization which will re. flucc the unit cost"
 Lord said the government in 1924 spent three billions fortynne million. year three billion sxty-fonr million, both exclusive of debt reduction He also explained that the increased tax refunds postal deficits. and world compensation, all anounirg to hundred and thirty-four miiIion would than offset the reduction in interest of lift mine million last year.

WHY SHOULD ANYBODY VOTE.
ANYHOW?
BY n. ID. Cochran

If you want to know why about half of the eligible
voters in this country don't VOTE just ask yourself why
they should vote
It's easy enough to tell American citizens that the
franchise is of the proudest possession of free
and that it is the duty Of patriotic citizen
go the polls and vote But it isn't easy to tell
him what he's voting for Or what he'll get for himself
if he does vote.
Outside of prohibition you don't hear people dis
cussng any of the issues supposed to be involved in
politics Not one voter in thousand gives thought
to the tariff the World Court the League of Ma
tons The protective tariff isn't discussed street
corners, in drug stores in the smoking Of
Pullmans. If you try to start argument on the
French debt you'll be taken for nut.
People not thinking about what politicians
think they are thinking about You get up an
argument about the Yanks and the Cardinals. Most
anybody will talk about why Tunney licked Jack
Dempsey. The HallMills murder will start CONVEX
sation anywhere. They'll even discuss Aimee McPher-
and her love affairs at the family reside. Val
entinos funeral and Pola Negris lamentations over
her lost love full of human interest
If Babe Ruth standing and Cal
Coolidge on another, Babe would attract bigger
crowd than Call and Charlie Chaplin, Doug Fairbanks,
Mary Pickford, Jack Delaney Harry Wills
would attract attention than Andy Mellon,
Herb Hoover the Secretary of State Probably not
person in thousand knows who is Secretary Of
War; and nobody cares.
Not one person in the entire United States can
give you an intelligent definition of Republican
Democrat. Nobody knows what either party means
to his fortune citizen Of the United States
trying to make a living.
Voting won't buy the baby Shoes pay the in
stallment on the radio, the way into movie show
or buy package of cigarettes.
In other words very few people see how voting for
somebody election day has any real connection with
their daily life and its problems. Few of those
who do know what they for the ballot
has been cast
If opposing candidates make their contest
enough like dog fight prize fight to stir up that
partisan feeling that exists in all of then people
may go to the polls and vote for the other
them much they would pick a favorite in horse
race without knowing much about the horses.
To many people corned beef and cabbage or even
hot dog sandwich with plenty of mustard is inter
teresting than the World Cortland much diges
tible.
People don't eat beefsteak because it's their duty
They do it because they want to- And nobody will get
far trying to induce American citizens vote for no
better reason than that somebody else tells them
their duty The citizen who enjoys having somebody
else tell him what his duty is, is bird
When voting means something real to all voters
then the stay-at-homes won't be worth counting

every incident mentioned by Stephenson 1t is not
question of whether Stephenson prove by can
ceed checks and written contracts his charges. or
if they can be obtained by representatives of the
people.
Are these things true? Did they happen?
Quite incidentally, the most fundamental fact
and the starting point for an investigation, was
given by the Times when it produced the statement
of very respectable citizen and his wife that they
had photographed documents. Cancelled checks. writ
ten statements for Stephenson while he sat in the
Noblesville JAIL amazed to discover that he not
the claw in Indiana" but under life sentence and
that those photographs were sent to him.
There is proven, at least, that Stephenson had
something at that time that he believed so impor-
tant that he took duplicates
Let the facts be had. What were these things
he cherished? And why did he cherish them?

and in the end she makes him the
promise that she will wear his fra

in the big game Of the year.
Richard Dix as the speedy Cotton
quarter back takes TO this role as a

the field. During the big game of

stage version. dad kept right on
drinking and meeting Al. the boot
logger. But the movie version lets
dad go to church and instead of
drinking the whiskey, we see him
emotionally breaking fun bottles on
the floor. And so dad becomes a
male Carrie Nation.
The movie version makes n regu-
lar girl out of the chorus girl. She
sticks by the boy she loves and
helps him to get straight with the
world.
THE Old Soak" as a movie takes
a hundred liberties with the original
stage story. Characters who didn't
have much to do on the stage are
about the whole works in the movie
story of the play.
OF course, Dad Hawley starts out
to be a regular old soak. but he gets
on the water wagon. In the stage
version the comedy scenes were han
died by Mister Hawley the maid
and Al. These scenes in the movies
are not as numerous as on the stage
Jean Hersholt is Mr.. Hawley, and
he does a mighty good job with the
character, although I think that the
directors should have left Hawley in
the same spiritual situation as the
stage version.
Dad Hawley is a lovable old souse
as a character. He harmed himself.
He was nobody's fool, and he had
a fine sense of family loyalty. He
was pathetic and yet lovable.
You will find 1.-THE Old Soak" an
interesting photoplay. made from a

Lewis and June Marlowe are others

On Guard

The present campaign has been re
plete with scandal, but the mess that
is on the point Of coming to light in
Indiana promises to eclipse every
thing.
Hero you have not only the cor
rupt use Of money in large amounts,
but the acknowledged subserviency
of officials to an unofficial organiza-
ton: not only the rOttenness of
bought and sold elections, but an
obvious attempt to conceal it by the
abuse of official privilege.
If it had not been for a few fear
less newspaper men, the people of
Indiana would never have realized
how they had been duped and man
handled.
Such things show this country
would so if Journalism were muzzled.
Something to Explain
Three millions for a Republican
primary in Pennsylvania; more than
one million for a Republican primary
in Illinois; a Republican ex-secretary
of the interior under indictment in
connection with oil leases which
three courts have held as fraudu
lently obtained; a Republican ex-at-
torney general lately on trial for con-
spiracy TO defraud the Government.
and now this Khan scandal in Indi-
ana, where the State government is
wholly Republican.
There is something for the party
in power to explain besides the great
era Of prosperity, the surplus in the
treasury or the blessings OF a high
tariff
