Because of the nature of the Young
Mems Christian Association in any
town, in its desire to serve boys
young men and older men, it is liable
to arouse the question asked. 1t is
to the credit of the local Association
if it can be of service to the Grade
School boy, the High School boy and
the Employed Boy and to actively en-
gage the Young Man and the Busi-
ness and Professional Man. Oftimes
these older men become SO enthusias-
tic about what the Y. M. c.. A. is do
ing for them and their colleagues that
one might get the impression the
younger fellows were being neglected.
In the recent reports from National
Headquarters of the Young Mems
Christian Association in New York,
we are informed that 71.4% of the
total members of the Association
Movement of Canada and the United
States are boys and young men.
Only 1850 of the total membership
are men over 20 years of age.
The city Y. M. C. AS such as is
represented by Newark serve the
Grade School, High School and En-
ployed boys. County Associations,
of which there are nine in Ohio, also
carry on a part of the program that
the cities do in regard to these young
er boys. Twenty-four colleges in
Ohio have a Y. M. C. A. organization
within their student body and serve
more than $1,000 young men students.
In a survey made a year ago
among the subscribers of the Newark

Telephone Manager Leaves

]. G. Boush, for the past three and
a half years service manager of the
Newark Telephone Co., will sever his
connection on February 1st and join
the L. M. Berry & Co., engaged in
the telephone directory advertising
business, with headquarters in Day
ton. His family will remain in New
ark until spring. Mr.. Boush's con-
nection with the local company came
at a most opportune time, when 1t
was engaged in a rate raising case,
and a deprecated property was caus-
ing all manner of trouble. His gen
eral knowledge and practical expe-
rience enabled him to successfully
solve these problems and place the
company on a firm basis and gain the
confidence and cooperation of the
public. During his sojourn among US
he has made countless friends, all of
whom while rejoicing in his upward
progress, regret to see his departure
from Newark AS an evidence of the
esteem in which he is held by en-
ployes of the Newark company he
was surprised by members of the toll
force and switchboard force, who de-
slrous of showing their appreciation
of his friendly dealing with them, pre-
sented him with handsome travelling
bag Tuesday morning. Mr.. Boush
who was knocked off his feet for a
few minutes, fittingly responded, say
ing he would ever treasure their gift
and the spirit of friendship which it
symboliZed.

In the end 39 republicans, go democrats and one farmer labor senator voted in the affirmative with none repub- licans and four democrats casting the negative ballots.

Permanent organizattSs of the board of police commissioners was not effected at the first meeting Of the new board last night, Clerk Jo- seph A. McGrail reporting that Mayor Weld wished only routine matters attended to until Rodman w. Chamberlain, one of the new commissioners, who is out of the city, returns. The other commis- sioners agreed that Mir. Chamberlain should be on hand when the years work Is actually begun.
 Commissioner M. w. Bannan nominated Commissioner Peter !. Pajewski for temporary chairman and Commissioner Morton seconded the nomination, saying he felt hon. ored to do so. Another meeting will be held shortly when permanent chairman and clerk will be named. Commissioner Pajewski is assured of the chairmanship.
 Chief W. c. Hart presented his an- nual report, which was adopted. Among the recommendations con- tained in it are the addition of two men to the detective bureau, and locating a central traffic tower at the corner of Main and West Main streets. The chief also called atten- ton to the supernumerary depart ment which Is woefully under manned. He favors intensive effort to interest young men in police work.
 During an informal discussion, Commissioner Bannan remarked that the traffic squad has improved greatly in courteousness during the past few months. "They actually smile now when a driver makes a mistake" he said.
 After approving the monthly bills' the new commissioners were taken about the police building by Chief Hart on request of Commissioners Morton. They saw the g o'clock squad go out on duty following in- spection.

 Indications are that the rest of the week, and perhaps part of next week, will be required to complete reading for amendment of this measure and the two bills to be offered as substitutcs-the Tincher credit plan and the Curtis-Aswell commodity marketing proposal.
 Reading of the Haugen bill was started yesterday, it withstood a deluge of amendments, aimed at the preliminary sections. Those reject ed included proposals to remove the provision requiring the president 10 appoint the proposed federal farm board from a list submitted by an advisory council chosen from farm organizations. Several prominent republicans, including Burton and Begg of Ohio, contended this was an unconstitutional infringement on the presidents appointive power.
 Thus far the measure has wealth. cred every amendment opposed by it's sponsors, but the most import ant features, including the S375,- 000,000 appropriation and the price maintenance plan. have not been reached.

on the cross" DIR. Daugherty urged
all present to refrain from entering
into a realm OF doubt as to the efficacy
of prayer.
The two other problems, that of the
deity of Christ and the whereabouts of
our loved ones, both are fully an
swered in the same manner, he said
Any doubt as to the deity of Christ is
dispelled when one considers that He
upheld his role as the Son of God even
when confronted with death, and as
sured the thief on another cross that
he would join him in Paradise.

BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

At the end of his first year as Presi-
dent in his own right, Calvin Coolidge,
by common consent of political friend
and political foe, remains uncommonly
strong in public esteem. The observa-
ton most frequently encountered, and
one that sums up the situation, Is that
II there were a presidential election to-
morrow and Coolidge were a candi-
date. there is probably not a man In
the eountry-Republican or Democrat
who could stand against him. AS the
second half of the Presidents first full
term approaches. conviction grows that
Mr. Coolidge will be a candidate to sue
ceed himself In 1928. Given present
conditions. there's not politician In
the United States whose Judgment is
worth while who does not frankly ad,
NIT that he will be unbeatable.
Given present conditions there s
the rub, and the only rub, in the cal
culations about Coolidge. BY that Is
meant that II the times continue 10
be good. as good as they are now,
the President could face even the
third-term tradition without alarm.
But II conditions change-that is. IN
a business sense-then the Coolidge
horoscope assumes another phase.
Possibilities Of 1928.
II 1928 should descend upon the
Nation in the midst of an economic
crisis, with bank failures, commercial
bankruptcies. unemployment bread
ines and the other trappings OF
hard times In general view, one of
two things would happen, In the
estimation Of students ol events The
proba ability is. they believe, that Mr.
Coolidge would not tempt fate in a
situation for which 1t is the Amer
lean habit to blame the party in
power.
The other contingency is that. even
If the President should decide to en-
ter the lists for another term amid
economic distress, he would court
disaster. Most persons discount such
n possibility on his part. He Is ac-
counted far too canny q politician
after 27 consecutive years in the
game, to fly In the face of fate that
would be so fun of uncertainty.
It is in the farming West that the
Coolidge sun Is not shining as bright
ly as 1t has during most of his admin
istration. 1t is not only the midwest
corn belt that Is disanected-the re
gions now foregathered through their
representatives for concerted drive
to bring about radical agricultural
legislation In Washington. Further
West than the cornfelds of Iowa, Ne
braska and South Dakota, in the rec
lamation and irrigation areas of Idaho,
Montana, Oregon. Washington, Utah.
California, Colorado and Arizona
there is a good deal Of new anti Cool
idge sentiment.

Reclamation and irrigation projects.
calling for tens of millions of dollars
of Federal money, have struck a seri.
Gus snag in the shape of the Coolidge

the administration has resulted. If
Coolidge were running for President
this week he doubtless would carry

throbbing industrial areas. North

ly encountered Is that Coolidge
strength is still running at full tide
Big business Is satisfied with him
More and more people. even of modest
means, are becoming bondholders.
These are mounting into a new class
OF conservative citizens, and, with a
view to their security as bondhoiders
they are inclined to believe in Sthe
safe and sane" regime now on the
job at Washington. No estimate of
Coolidge strength nowadays leaves
this humble bondholding community
growing bigger from day to day
out of account.
Opposition Not Effective.
The President has profited incalcu-
lably from the lack Of any driving,
fighting, cohesive opposition to him
at Washington. He has his enemies
within and without the Republican
party. The Norris insurgent group
would bring Mr.. Coolidge down from
his pedestal tomorrow IL it could.
But its leaders admit rather mourn

the Aluminium Co. of America, the
Shipping Board. etc.-have dented his
armor any more than a birdshot
would. The Democrats have been
about as ineffective in blowing up
the so-called Coolidge myth" as the
Norris insurgent vendetta.
Economy. the star ballad in the
Coolidge repertoire, has been sung
during his first year" with increas-
ing effectiveness by the President.
These ides of March find tax reduc-
ton in effect, under his direction as
the country at large believes. The
farmers. who. with few exceptions
don't pay Federal taxes, like Coolidge
economy because it is setting an ex.
ample in economical government to
States and counties, to which farm
ers do pay taxes, and are paying bur-
densomely. All In all. If the Coolidge
citadel is to be stormed, heavier guns
than any thus far unliInbered have
got to be brought up.
