ROLE
IN CAMPAIGN
DOUBTFUL
BY GEORGE b. DURNc
International News Service

Conflicting schools; of thought
over the nature and extent of Pres
ident Coolidge's participation in the
campaign to elect Herbert Hoover
his successor were confronting the
Republican board of strategy today.
Four distinct methods by which
the Executive may lend aid and
comfort to the Republican cause
thus far have been laid before him,
with the necessity for a quick de-
cision from among them imperative.
The first-and most probable-is
that Mr.. Coolidge should accept the
challenge thrown down by the
Democrats and defend his own adj
ministration, rather than take the
stump for Hoover.
The second, inspired by a fear
that Gov. Al Smith Is gaining too
steadily in the public imagination,
would have the President so boldly
before the country and make
limited series Of addresses from key
points, openly urging voters to
vote for the former Secretary OF
Commerce.
Two for Caution
The third school OF thought de-
cries all the present publicity OF g
speculative nature and Is urging
the President to keep in the back
ground until an opportunity arises
for a spontaneous demand" TO
hear from him.
The fourth is demanding that he
keep off the stump entirely.
From all present indications, Mr..
Coolidge is going to make at least
one important speech between now
and election day-possibiy more.
The preponderance OF evidence now.
however, would Indicate that this
address will be confined to an
answer to the Democratic attacks
on his economy program and it,
achievements.
Mr.. Coolidge already has iIdi-
Gated his whole4hearted support Of
the Republican nominee and has
stated that his biggest gesture Of
support would be the continuance.
until November, Of an .administra-
ton the people would be glad to
extend through Hoover's election.
One Speech Likely
In view of this, the belief is grow
ing that he viii pick a strategic
point and confine himself to a public
answer to the criticisms of Smith,
Chairman Raakob, and other Demo-
cratic leaders who have charged the
Coolidge Administration with failure
to practice true economy.
Make New York, New Jersey,
New England. and the border States
safe for Hoover" is the battle cry Of
the group proposing a brief stump
ing tour.
"The greatest aid Hoover could
get from President Coolidge right
now would be to have the spotlight
turned away from speculation on
any activity on the part OF the lat.
ter" counter group number three.
1T Is all ridiculous" respond the
fourth clique. Hoover Is a winner
without aid from the President. Why
stir up things?"

NEW ASSESSMENT
PLAN ADVOCATED
Continuous, Instead of Five
Year Basis, Urged by Mary
land State Secretary.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE November 24.-Chango
from the general reassessment of the
counties every five years to continu-
Gus basis, so that at least a fifth of
each county would be reassessed each
year, is advocated by David G.. Wine
brenner. secretary of state.
He pointed out that this system
makes for a more efficient assessment
organization and keeps assessments on
a more equitable basis. Employment of
assessors on a continuous basis. he be-
lieveS, would also eliminate inequalities
and political considerations.
The present system OF general re-
assessment every five years. Mr.. Wine
brenner asserted, constituted IAN out
standingly inherent weakness in our
taxing policy.
II think that a majority of the
thoughtful citizens of the counties are
impressed with the need Of a change In
the law and practice hitherto followed
with respect to county reassessmentS.
"Over period of years there is a
natural and gradual increase in the
value of real estate, which increase
should be reflected by increased assess
ments. Whether such increased assess
ments are fair, and 1t is reasonable to
suppose that in the majority of in
stances they are, or not the natural tend
ency of the taxpayers is to object.
When. moreover. the majority of tax
payers of an entire county are at the
same time confronted with increased
assessments a general countrywide pro-
test invariably follows.
Under the present plan different
assessors are appointed for the several
election districts Of the county. De-
spite any formula which the State Tax
Commission might devise to stand
ardize assessments. the inescapable
consequence Of having different asses
sors in the various election districts is
a complete lack Of uniformity in the
assessments fixed"

Mr.. James reviewed the history of

recommended that the league write

not so friendly, will write 1t for you"

, in this State There are some psuedo
building and loan associations in Mary
land that are nothing more than nests
of pirates.
"They exploit their members with all

tions may put upon their Office doors

BLUES FAV0Rl7ES | ID BEAT PAWNEES
Heavier Line Considered Great Advantage in Title Game

With q line that averages 10 to i5 pounds more 10 the man than that of the Pawnees. the New Brit ain Blues football team is the favo- rite to win Sunday in the game 10 be played at Memorial field in Will low Brook park for the semi m-pro championship of the city. The Blues have extraordinary power on the defense and it is figured that the Pawnce backs will be unable to penetrate the stone wall to be thrown up against them.
 The Pawnees hope 10 offset this advantage which they concede to the Blues with speed. The East Sders have a capa blc line of backs who are fast and powerful and with the numerous plays already pre- pared. the team confidently expects to win. The Pawnces have already put in some stiff practice sessions and they have perfected several plays which. it is expected. will make the Blues travel.
 After last nights practice. w. Quarti. Miske, Spiiko and Ostertas have been selected as tho starting backlield. Quarti will do all the bunting as in previous games. The line players. with the exception of Barta. who will be in at center. will be selected after practice Sunday morning.
 The Pswnccs so far this season have won three and lost as many games. Two victories have been scored in the last two games played. They have run up total of |: points against A for their oppo. ncn'S.
 The Pawnecs arc confident that they can win and they plan to play the winner of the Maple West End game at Bristol. The team will practice again Sunday morning at 9 o'clock.
