THE ANTI-LYNCHING BILL

The Virginia Senate Fextracted the
teeth" from Gov. Harry Floods anti
lynching bill and then adopted the
measure by vote of 80 to . The
recommendations of His EXcellency
provided a penalty OF $4,000 90 to be
paid to the heirs and benefciaries OF
a person lynched by the city or coun-
ty in which the lynching took place.
As the matter now stands, the only
action taken was to legalize by specific
statute the actions already taken ii
prosecuting lynchers. 1t is now made
a State offense and the funds Of The
Commonwealth are specifically placed
at the disposal f tae Governor to nd
in bringing the members Ct ND TO
justice.
This, from a moral standpoint, us
doing something towards further Oft
having this browning infamy OF the
century. Certainly there should be 4
penalty in the premises for law
without a penalty is null and void.
The sheriff should be held responsible
and the Governor should be given the
power to remove him from Office
should he permit a prisoner to be
lynched, who is consigned to his keep
ing. We had hoped that the Byrd
measure would be passed in its en-
tirety, but as the Senate is more con-
sentative than the House, it is hardly
10 be expected that much can be ex-
pected in this direction.
Let us hope that there may be a
disagreement and that in conference
the effort to rid Virginia of this
crowning infamy may take tangible
form and form a basis for other
States in the Union to follow. Lynch
law must go!

THE POLITICAL SITUATION

The political situation at the pres
emit time is puzzling and it presents
certain phases, which surprise and
worry some of the oldest and most
astute political leaders in this coun-
try. From Republican standpoint,
the final outcome depends much upon
the nominee of the National Demo-
cratic Convention at Houston. The
Republican leaders are more or less
upset by the positive declaration of
President Calvin Coolidge that he does
not choose to run again at this time.
This has "queered" the situation and
'1muddied the waters" so to speak.
He is in possession of the patron
age, which carries with it vast politi-
cal influence The next question is,
who will he favor for President?
While, he no doubt has made up his
mind, not to be partial in the matter,
it is nevertheless fact that some one
of the several candidates, when his
name is called will afford to him ben
ignant pleasure. Lowden, Dawes,
Wills, Borah and the others with the
possible exception of Herbert Hoover
will awaken no interest in the great
statesman from Massachusetts,.
1t is q fact that the office holders
closest to the President are Hoover
ties. Senator Willis is an avowed
candidate as the leader of the 'bone-
dry" Republicans. He is being open
ly opposed by Hoover in Ohio, and if
he is endorsed there in political
sense, his doom as candidate is
sealed. The Hoover managers need
the votes from Ohio in the Conven-
ton at Kansas City or at least a
proportion of them. This will place
Willis of Ohio, and Lowden of Him
ois, upon the same footing. Both will
have trouble in their home States.
Unfortunately Secretary Hoover
halls from California, State that
defeated Charles Evans Hughes for
President. New York State accord
ingly is not backing Hoover, just at
this juncture, but is sending an unin-
structed delegation to the National
Republican Convention. In the mean
time, the leader of the New York
forces is insisting upon drafting
President Coolidge as a candidate.
The situation is closely akin to that
which confronted President Theodore

League Considers World
 Move to Protect Birds

GENEVA, July 16.-The convo- cation of an international confer ence for the protection of birds viii be urged upon the September assembly of the League of Nations, according to statement issued by the international committee which is interested in the preser- yation of bird life. Several mem bers of the league council believe the question of protection of mi gratory birds falls within the scope of league activities and will advocate a conference.
 Premier Mussolini, of Italy, is cited in the statement as a man who is leading the way to proper bird protection by insisting that birds are national property and by protecting them as of value to humanity. The committee believes Italy will become one of the great. est bird sanctuaries in southern Europe.
 The international institute of agriculture at Rome has been ask ed to cooperate in making known the value of birds to agriculture.

 Palace officials relate that His Majesty threw all his toy soldiers in the dust bin the day after h. received his first salute from 2,000 Roumanian soldiers ol the nation al Independence Day.
 It was q great game for the lit tie king. He stood stiffly erect in the center of a great reviewing stand, beside his grandmother, Queen Marie. and his mother, Prin- cess Helen.
 As each unit of soldiers swung past jn their ceremonial goose-ster and the commanders brought their swords smartly to their ehlns, in his honor, King Michael drew him. self up proudly and returned their salute with vigor and snappi. ness that an old army sergeant well might envy
 It was the wettest day in three ,years-the rain seems to follow King Michael every time he ap. pears in public, since it rained even the day he was crowned.
 Accompanied by Queen Marie and Princess Helen, he drove thru the steady downpour in an open barouche across Bucharest to the palace.
 A member of the court asked the little king, Does your Majes. ty like the rain?'
 "Yes, I do," he replied with the candor of youth. Today my mother says l may sail my boat in the backyard when we go home and Grandma is coming with us to play crossing the ocean with me; then she will tell me about the Indians with feathers in Ameri. ca"
