MASSACHUSETTS PRIMARIES


 an exhibition on how to operate party primaries, Connecticut may copy" is writ large in the returns; but J. Henry is not willing to barter safe control for dubious control. For in statewide primary there is al- ways the likelihood that machine candidates may fail; true. they don't always flop, and they didn't in Mass achusetts, but only week previous lp Senator George H. Moses's well- oiled contraption sounded like a broken concrete mixer in New Hampshire.
 The danger to the machine ina primary is that the ordinary politi- cally untainted voter may decide to take part. So long as primary whets up only minimum of inter- est. appealing only to the hard boiled party workers, their wives. relatives and friends, with a modi- cum of others thrown in, there is not much danger of the machine losing its grip. The true test of a machine is in the primaries. A party can af- ford to lose an election-one party must lose every election-but no ma chine can afford to lose many prf- maries if it is to maintain morale in the ranks. All these risks are avoid- ed in Connecticut for the most part. The so-called primaries We have in this state are mere political love feasts to which only the most inter- ested lend the benefits of their aid. We have party conventions, and one of them is completely controlled by the boss. while the other is subject to 5o-5o opposition. Neither conven- tion is subjected to such pressure as might accrue in a genuine primary such as Massachusetts has just had.
 Benjamin Loring Young, nominee of the Republicans in the Bay state to make the senatorial race against Senator David I. Walsh. nominated without opposition. of course has | thankless task. He is set up to be knocked down. as many another has been set up before him in opposi- tion to the senator. Yet Young is a man of sterling capabilities. pos sessing a proud record of achieve ment.
 Frank A Goodwin. the former motor vehicle commissioner who at- talned much publicity for. his spec tacular methods. threatened the or sanization in his run for the go>er- norship nomination but failed to gain his goal against Frank G. Allen. the nominee, The reason was not that the machine was strong. but because Goodwin himself gave the impression he was too obstreperous d man to be governor.
 The race for lieutenant governor, a sort of free for all was perhaps the most remarkable concentration Of aspiration in the commonwealth g history. It defied adequate comment.
 Much sstisfa ction should be had at the defeat of Fred J, Burrel1. who sought the nomination as state treas urer. The best that can be said for him is that he had extraordinary courage to aspire for the honor in face of his past record.

And beat both your rod and your gun. Ere you boast of the deeds that your body can do- The feats of your strength and your skill You should pause in your bragging moment or two.

 INTERRUPTION IN TOUR
Held in Louisville, Kentucky on . Charge Of Larceny and
 Vagrancy

Vagrancy
 Louisville, Ky, Sept. 20 GP-Paul Franck, 26, Parisian organist. who claims to be ! nephew of the late Cesar Franck, Belgian composer. suffered an interruptio in his re- cital tour here today by being under arrest for grand larceny, vagrancy and being a fugitive from justice.
 Franck. whose name is the same as that of protege of Charles Ca mille Sant-Saens, French composer, was apprehended driving q sedan which police said was stolen August ? in Atlanta. The organist protested that the automobile was his proper ty. stolen from him at Savannah, and restored to him by private de- tectives in Atlanta.
 After vainly trying to e s.vince po- lice that he was innocent, the musi- clan needed the advice of friends to be quiet and was taken to jail.
 He said he came to Louisville two weeks ago. and since being here he has given three recitals at leading Louisville churches. In New York. he said, he was private organist for well known persons.

A Welcome Word

Herbert Hoover, the Republican candidate for the Presidency of the United States. was motoring along ] London street one day when his chauffeur ran down a Londoner who had just emerged from a public house and was staggering down the street in q manner that made him practically impossible to avoid. The car came to stop with the drunk en wayfarer directly beneath it.
 Mir. Hoover, alarmed, hastily de- scended to investigate and lend aid. The victim lay in thoroughly stricken attitu le, but no sooner had Mr. Hoover laid hands on him than he unloosed himself of a parcel of strong British paths. You blankety. blankety, blank, blank, blank!" is what he called the present aspirant for the highest office within the gift of the American people.

that some solution could be put 10 motion
that would be equitable TO all concerned.
According to our understanding Of the
telephone service rules the same are sub
ject to amendment by the government
of the islands, whether ny legislative or
executive action. As indicated, the Ques-
ton has been laid before the colonial
council without adjustment. For quite
some time the demand that rural sub
scriberS pa the initial cost Of furnishing
telephone service has been commented
on as being at variance with the authO.
rized conditions therefor and it IS a fact
that rural subscribers to whom service
was extended when the system was
erected some fifteen odd wears ago did not
nave to Fay for any out az So incurred
and have not paid for the maintenance
up to the present time. Only within the
last few years we have heard of such
charges being imposed While we believe
that there is good business ground for
not mourning an expense that may not
be covered for years bv the proceeds 20
be derived, it would seem that it savors
Of discrimination TO make some pay
while others did not. If, on the other
hand, a telephone is of such enormous adj
vantage to any one as suggested, it might
pay him to get it and protest the matter
at court. We are not trying Of course
to minimize the necessity for a depart
ment to answer a mans business let
ter when an answer is decidedly due
him. Neither do we think that heavy
tolls should be imposed on HIM without
proper authority. The whole matter is
cIumsily handled and should be straight
ened out by those responsible for It's
neglect.
