\ RIFT WITH THE C. OF C.

President Coolidge as rule is supposed to be on good terms with the United States Chamber of Com merce; at least, he was until just recently.
 The rift between the President and the L. s. c. of c. is entirely justified. The President favors a tax reduction of no more than $250,- 100000, the sum that the House ways and means committee has recommended after an exhaustive investigation and hearings during which all divergent views were fully considered.
 President Pierson of the [. S. c. of C., however, blasts his way into public print with a statement that a tax reduction Of s4oO,o00, 900 is pos- sble. He thinks he knows more about the subject than either the
  President or the House committee. The c. of c. is supposed to have favored Coolidge because he is re- garded as prudent: careful cool, and all the rest of it. Being prudent is still a consideration in government. and now we find the C. of c. inclin- cd to lack the prudence,
 The President, with important pubic improvements requiring ap- preparations staring the administra- tlon in the face, is anxious to avoid deficit in government financing. The C. of C. isn't worrying about a possible deficit so long as taxes are reduced In fullest measure.
 It is clear that the President not the c, of C.. feels the greater weight of public responsibility.

MAIL PLANES

It is yet to be determined how long a mail plane can be in service before 1t gives evidence of being out of date or worn to the point of be- ing placed in reserve.
 It is said that an ordinary trolley car can look forward to r years of service: some of them look and act as if they had seen 30 years.
 It is believed the life of a motor bus Is no more than five years, with frequent spells of overhauling necessary during that period.
 The Colonial Air Transport, Inc, operators of the air mail route be- tween Boston and New York. which has only been In operation for lit tie more than year, already has displaced Its planes with new models. The company some time ago was credited with going into the passenger freight and express buei- ness, which it was stated would necessitate changes If not new planes; now special mailing planes have been adopted as most respon- siVe 10 the service. and the planes formerly used will go into reserve.
 There is no doubt that the air mail contractors are gradually dis covering the type of plane best adapted to the rigorous necessities of the service and that they will in time produce air vehicles that meet with every requirement. par excel lence. The Colonial company has made an important step in this di- rection with its new planes, and few years from now, when addition al Improvements will have been thought of, new planes will be or dered.
 The air mail is doing more for the progress of aviation than the stunt flyers.

THE, GASOLINE TAX

 The same opposition holds good in Massachusetts.

THE TWO-THlRDS W LIE AND GOVERNOR SMITH

Information given out by foremost Democratic politicians Is 10 the ef- feet that TO attempt will bo made to abrogate the two-thirds rule govern ing the procedure of nominating q presidential candidate at the Demo- cratic national convention.
 If the two-thirde rule is outNorn md obnoxious to the many party members, not to mention candidates, this Is no time 10 eliminate it, they say. It would be too much like try ing 10 yield an advantage to Gov ernor Smith, who without the two- thirds rule is believed capable Of winning the nomination hands down.
 The facts of course are that the strength of the New York governor has been enhanced so greatly during the last four years that it IS being reliably stated" by statesmen close 70 him that he believes he can win with the rule in force. His friends say he will receive the solid hasE- ing Of the the delegates from the New England states New York, New Jersey, Delaware, most of those from Pennsylvania, and is credited with great strength among Inc Democ- lacy in tho middle west. He is also credited with possessing more than 2 ma iority of the delegates from the Pacific coast and the Rocky Noun tain states. In addition. he expected to win considerable support from the south after the early ballots. En- forcemont Of the unit rule by order of state conventions may prevent some southern votes being cast for smith. On the other hand, the states with favorite sons in the arena Missouri. Ohio, Maryland, Indiana Montana and Nehraska-ars expect ed to yeer toward Smith as these Savorite sons cease to be factors in the convention.
 There is every likelihood that
New Britain herald., 1927-11-28

Smith will be nominated if the fore going summary of prospects from bis friends is accurate. If this occurs campaign Of strenuosity is in pros pect, with the carrying of New York, New Jersey. Maryland and possibly some other important Republican states having heavy bearing on the result of the election.
 The effort to induce apathetic yot- CTS to do their duty at the polls has been rather losing battle, as after the most strenuous propaganda barely more than 60 per cent have been exercising their right to vote. With smith as a candidate there is every likelihood that the total of voters who actually vote will greatly Increase. Nothing gets out the vote so successfully as hot election.
New Britain herald., 1927-11-28

zion, but as they have voted the grand old party ticket in the recent years they have fairly well con tributed to the Volstead status quo. For 1t makes little difference what the undorling voters prefer, so long as the leaders of the party refuse to come out into the open on the pro- hlbition question the boys who vote the G. o. P. might as well be vot- ing dry.
 Something has got 10 be done about it, say the wet Republicans. Trouble is. they say. that too many dry congressman are in Washington. How to reduce the number, that is the question.
 The main thought just now is to raise a large campaign fund. Word has just gone forth that the Anti Saloon League will raise s5,o0ooo0 for use during the next five years, which Of course means s1,00o,000 a year for campaign purposes. The Association Opposed to Prohibition has no such war chest. but Is franh to admit 1t would like to have one equally as large, or larger. The chief propulsive force behind the banquet tonight will be plant to get the money. Maybe that will cause some jealous vets to remain absent; for many man has strong notions about what ought to be done in a situation but loses his enthusiasm when the collection starts.
 Former Senator James Wads- worth, than whom there is no wet any wotter, has his eye on that old senate seat again and will be promi- nent at the banquet: at least, his name is going to be mentioned. He wants to succeed Senator Royal s. Copeland. whose term expires in 1929 and whose seat will be up for election next year.
 F'ussing with the senators, how ever, will only mean two votes for the wet cause from New York. Tho ranks Of the representatives are much larger, and as many of them hail from the upstate districts it Is noticeable that all of them do not side with the vets There is the trouble for the wet Republicans. Most Of the upstate Republican representatives won't be at the ban quet.
