France TURNING to Gold

return to the gold standard likely will be
among Frances first internationally important
moves as result of the Sunday elections which gave
Premier Raymond Poincare a popular mandate to
carry with his program of national rehabilitation.
Next Monday huge new loan will be offered the
French people to enable the premier to maneuver the
nations finances back to straegcay better position.
This done he is expected drastically to reduce the
amount of paper in circulation-now around 60000,-
100000 francs-and fix a much lower legal limit to
the figure.
Then after careful preparation, the French gov
ernment is expected to stabilize the franc at approx
imately its present value of twenty-five to the dollar
or five francs paper to one franc gold.
incidentally, it is reported that France intends to
pay both the United States and Great Britain this
years installments on her war debts, $11,5OoOOO
to America and $2OOoOOOO to Britain
But it would be mistake to infer from this that
Premier Poincare intends to ask Parliament to rafy
the Acknowledgment finding agreement, for he hardly
will any such thing at least not unless the United
States permits the reservation that France needs pay
only if Germany pays.
France, of course, lacks the gold to warrant full
and free exchange of gold for paper. But did
Great Britain when in 1925, she returned to the gold
standard
Britain at that time was in possession Of gold
reserve amounting to $75000O000 and had to borrow
$3OoOoOOOO in New York to bring it above billion
France is in better shape than that, She now
has in the bank of France an amount about equal
to what Britain had and, in addition, approximately
a billion and quarter dollars gold to her credit
abroad.
Economically, Frances return to the gold stand
ard is not likely to have much if any, apprecabe eff
feet The franc today stands at Approximately
twenty-five to the dollar and there it has been for
considerable more than year.
Wages and cost of living, foreign trade. taxes and
the budget already have adjusted themselves to the
situation and barring surprises, the act will amount
to little more than official recognition of existing
fact.
To France as leading member Of the small COM
munity of hrst-class powers however, her return to
gold can not fail to mean much.

for astronomical Dr. Coblentz worked at the fa-
nous Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Ariz, in coop
GRAFTON with Dr. G. o. Lampland of that observatory
similar study with the thermocouple was carried
on at the Mt Wilson Observatory in California by
DR.. Seth B. Nicholson and Dr. Edison Petit mem
bers of the observatory staff.
The results of their studies interpreted to
mean that the planet Mars is much warmer than it
was formerly thought to be.
This view is taken, for example, by DR.. Henry
Norris Russell of Princeton one of the worlds great
est astronomers.
Dr. Russell says that he believes that the habitabil
lty OF Mars is made much probable by these OBJ
servations of 1924.
Inc reader may wonder why it took SO long to in
terpret the results of the 1924 observations
There are two reasons. First of ALL the observa-
IONS themselves are not easily made The radiation

emery rejected sunlight associated with heat waves
winch arise on the surface of the planet itself
PROPER observations mean arriving at the exact
amount OF visible light Of ultra violet and of mira
req or heat rays received from the planet
Then the calculations must be made The radia
uon from planet must pass through the earth's at
osphere before it strikes the thermocouple At once
we are faced with the question of making the
allowance for the absorption of these various kinds
OF rays by the atmosphere But the calculations have
been completed and we will next examine the figures

ContradiCtS State

Three months ago the INTERIOR
ough went before the State transit
commission asking permission to
raise its fare from 5 to z cents.
The transit commission refused
on the ground that it lacked juris-
diction, since the company was
operating under a contract, not a
franchise.
The Interborough then went into
court, pleading that it had been
denied relief, that the State had
power to intervene and should In
tervene, even though the State de-
MED it, and asking that the court
come to its rescue.
In coming to its rescue, the court
appears to have made a decicsion.
which, if sustained, would not only
set aside contract made by a mu-
nicipality with public service cor
poration in good faith, but would
force the State to exercise ree1lIa-
tory power against the States own
judgment.
Such conditions appear to make
this case Of far-reaching signif-
canoe.
How ever sound such a doctrine
as the court advances may be from
a financial or legal standpoint. It
can have but one political effect.
and that is to drive the cities of
America to municipal ownership.

Who Are TEeY?

Ha At last the public has chance to find
out just who is responsible for the Republican
party in this State. All that they have to do
is to ask the Indianapolis Star.
For when they are found, then will be dis
covered the men who, SO it is declared, decided
that Watson was to be goat in the name of
harmony, become fake candidate for the
presidency and put Indiana in the attitude of
trading her thirty votes in the Kansas City
convention to the fellow who will promise the
most jobs.
The final confession has been made in a
most ardent plea, by the Star, alleged friend
of Watson, to the voters to defeat Herbert
Hoover.
It says that if you would like to vote for
Dawes you must vote for Watson
1t says that if you want to vote for Curtis,
you must vote for Watson
1t says that if You like Lowden, vote for
Watson.
"Thc responsible heads of the party" so
says the Star, decided that Watson should be-
come favorlte son in order to have harmony.
The responsible heads" decided that it

any other real candidate to come into Indiana
frankly and submit their names to the voters.
That might prove too much of shock when
compared to the Hoover vote.
%'The responsible heads, " therefore, DELHI
erately plotted to take away from the Repub-
ican voters chance of taking part in the
nomination of President, to rob them of their
choice, by putting forward Watson as a bluff
to brighten away the real candidates.
There is one more fact which the people
should have as an addition to this confessions
of fake Watson candidacy in an hour when
the tide against Watson for his past sins of
omission and commission is running 50 high
that sure defeat for him can be seen.
Who are the responsible heads Of the party -?
Governor jackson, the chief executive and
free from prison under appeal to the stat
ute of limitations?
Clyde Walb, late chairman, now sojourning
at Leavenworth as guest of the Government?
D. c. Stephenson, who dominated four
years ago?
George V. Coffin, indicted jointly with
jackson on the outlawed bride charge?
Step forward gentlemen, and be identified
That will make the selection of Hoover almost
unanimous

Star, clinging with childish faith to the thought
that Watson will "clean up the Republican

opinion.

Mr.. Updikc;
Mr.. Updike, it will be recalled, first went to
Congress four years ago when the Klan in the
saddle. The grand jury report filed at the end Of
last year cited that the jury had It's possession an
agreement made by Updike and given to d. G.
Stephenson whereby the Klan boss was to be per-
mitted to dispose of political patronage in this dis
trict

would suggest that the worst Jonah has not

which are quite as illuminating as the cont

If there is to be real effort to get rid Of
all those who came into power with the as

they have to defeat Updike of whose fidelity
Stephenson seemed less sure and of whom he
demanded written contract
This is good time to follow the example
of Watson s friends and drop all the Jonahs.

Uphold Fare Boost

Three Federal judges, sitting as a
statutory court, have decided that
the Interborough Rapid Transit
Company Of New York should have
the right to raise its fare from to
Z cents.
Without going into details, New
York City entered into a contract
with the Interborough fifteen years
ago, whereby it leased to that
company certain subways which had
been built at public expense.
The company was given the right
to withhold money for operating
and maintenance costs, for interest
on its obligations and for an an
nual return equal to the profit it
had made during previous yearse be-
fore paying the city anything.
In consideration for these privi-
leges and the use of the subway, the
company agreed to maintain a s.

Never keep any kind of medicine drug in

Never use any kind of medicine or drug from your

UnWarrant0d Attacks

Herbert Hoover would have had
clear majority of delegates long ere
this but for the dirty work Of po-
litical leaders who have consulted
the wishes of the cliques and rings
they serve, rather than those Of the
rank and file.
Seldom in the history Of this ma
ton has an honest, able efficient
public servant been subjected to
such an unwarranted and insidious
attack.
1t is only necessary to recall a
few of the leaders opposing Hoover
to understand the hook-up.
First, there was the Ohio gang,
which surrounded and bled the
kindly President Harding; next
there was the Ku-KluX ridden ring
of Indiana; next there was the
power lobby, and finally a large
and distinguished group in Wall
Street.
Whatever the American people
may think Of Herbert Hoover for
what he has done himself, they can
not help respecting him for the
kind of opposition from which he
suffers,
