REPUBLICAN STAGE SET.

At Kansas City the stage is set for the big
political drama of the Republican Party which
occurs quadrennially. Unless all portents fail
it will have more of the dramatic in it than
usually is contained in the national conventions
of that party There is less of unity can
didates and more potential dynamite in the maxi
ing UP of the platform than expects to find
among the Republicans
There is the farm relief issue to be faced
Kansas City is in the agricultural belt. Will
enough dirt farmers" march the conyen-
ton hall to influence the platform makers? 1t
does not seem possible that the convention could
be persuaded to endorse the McNary- Haugen
bill twice vetoed by President Coolidge. To dc
so would be to repudiate the Coolidge Admin
istration and the party could hardly afford to
enter the campaign, one which promises to be
closely contested, on such a basis.
The Prohibition question seems to be
another source of possible trouble. Senator
Borah has been silent for time but memory
serves to recall an expressed determination by
him to write in positive plank this subject
1t is not conceivable that he would succeed in
that effort, but hot fight by him would be en-
barrassing
AS to candidates, Secretary Hoover has, in
terms of the street, the edge the field By
that token he has the field against him. With
in week their unity has been open and avowet
and their proclaimed objective the defeat OF
Hoover. The draft Coolidge movement still finds
Judgment in the minds and hopes of certain
Eastern politicians and is voiced by Eastern dele
gates. Should he nip it, Charles Evan Hughes
is suggested, although he has openly declared he
would not be a candidate. Lowden Curtis and
Watson remain in the field does Goss of Wes
Virginia. Between the unpedged delegates ant
those pledged to these four, there is enough
strength to block Hooyers nomination. Blu
there is little in past political history to jus
tify any hope that the anti-Hoover forces will
fall heir to the uninstrueted delegations.
1t is a trusm that nothing is certain abou
political conventions. Nevertheless at this time i
looks though the Republican Drama of 1922
will have been completed by Saturday night
Hoover nominated, and the platform put in tn
hands of the printer with noncommita Prohibi
ton and farm relief planks.

home. 1t is further fact that the thoroughly
organized and well capitalized Anti-Saloon League
forced, through threats of political destruction
and by employing at good rates legislators to
lecture prohibition and the of other
inducements, the State Legislatures to refuse to
submit the question to the votes of the people
who remained at home
They do not seem to take nto account that
it has been admitted by the Anti-Saloon League
leaders that it cost s60,000,000 to put it over.

Doodle campaign as there was for the Senate's
refusing a seat to Frank L. Smith of Illinois and
nearly that much greater reason than there was
for rejecting the credentials of William s. Ware
Of Pennsylvania.
Then there was vast difference in cam
pagns fer Prohibition in separate States where
the question was submitted to the voters of the
separate States and in one for National Pro-
hibition where only politicians in the Legisla-
lures made the decisions

AMERICAN WORKERS LEAD.

The United States leads all other nations in
productivity of it's workers, says the Depart
melt of Commerce which recently compared it
with worker productivity of other important
countries Only Canada is within sight of the
United States in this respect. Germany with its
Wanted efficiency falls far down the scale.
Taking the average output of the American
workman as 100, the Canadian is estimated to
produce at the ratio of 70. The ratio for the Eng
lish worker is found to be so, 40 per cent.
below the standard for the United States. Ger
many drops down to 40, with the French work
man trailing at S3, and Australia at a ratio of
30 In Poland it is down to 49, Italy eight,
Japan seven, and Russia with its unnumbered
millions under Soviet regime in last place with
three.
The Departments figures said to picture
with substantial accuracy the productivity of the
workers in the nations listed In estimating
ratios account taken of the working pop
ulation in each country and the annual output
Superior productiveness of the worker of the
United States is held to be due in part to the
skill and efficiency of the worker and partly
to machine processes and scientific management
The stimulus of high standard of living and
widespread opportunity also is reflected in the
greater productive effort of the average American
laborer.

Power of Books.
DAILY cympian.)


There never was time in the worlds history
when so many books ere being published as to-
day. Every week announcements book
sellers shelves groan under the weight OF the
never-ending food
Probably rs per cent of the books that are
being produced might just as we'll have stayed
unwritten. A tremendous amount of utter trash
is being printed. Yet for all that the unpre-
cedented spread of the reading habit in this
country is highly significant fact.
Books bad well as good ones, are
often more important and powerful than the
casual reader dreams. Books have helped to
pull down governments, to bring on wars, to
effect vast changes in social economic and polfti-
cal institutions. public that is eager for read
ing matter, the American public is today, is a
public that is eager for new ideas. And public
that is constantly looking for and absorbing new
ideas is not going to remain static and content.
In the old kingdom Of Franc. at the time of
the American Revolution there abundance
Of surface serenity. King Louis XVI was popu-
lar with the people and the royal power appar-
emily at any time in its cen
turtles of existence. Court circles never suspected
that they the verge of overturn.
But throughout the peaceful years certain
Frenehmen were writing books and every French
man who could lay hands them reading
them. Noltaire and Rousseau scoffing al
the pretentions of royalty and asserting the right
of the common to freedom and voice in
his government. Slowly bat surely the ideas
these men sent forth took effect. France alb
sorbed them, and the serenity of the throne
was silently but effectively undermined
Thus, when governmental crisis few
years ater-the sort of crisis that had never been
anything but Temporary nuisance-the country
cracked open and the French revolution swallowed
up throne, king and court forever.
Such is the power of books. people that
reads extensively is not in danger of stagnatiop
or decay. The constant spread of new ideas
is liberty's best safeguard

nation. The flood of books is ever increasing
That fact ought to be sufficient answer to the
pessmsts who see slipping into forgetfulness
of old heritage.

Astonishment has been expressed in various
quarters concerning the unexpected vigor of
President Coolidges language in vetoing the
McNary- Haugen bill Where people rub their
eyes and ask did Mr.. Coolidge acquire command
OF so many impressive words? The answer we
believe, will be found in the picture supplements
OF current issue showing Mr. Coolidge by the
side of Betty Robinson of South Bend, Ind, who
recently won the national spelling championship.
Before she captured the title by spelling "knack
she spelled bacillus" and other difficult words
From Betty we assume Mr. Coolidge learned how
to spell ghastly futility," vicious temptation "
intolerable espionage" ''crudely camoufaged
procedure" and other impressive examples of
photography.
As to the political effects of Mr.. Coolidge's
veto 1t seems to that there can be no two
opinions on the subject. 1t paves the way for
Republican victory next November. All that
is necessary to make victory certain is the NOM
NATION OF Lowden on strong farm relief plat
form The Republican Party can then point
with pride on the one hand, to its firm stand
against dangerous legislation, and on the other
hand, to its emphatic recognition of the just de-
mands of the farmers.

Do NOT MEET THE ARGUMENT.

The favorite answer OF Prohibitonists to the
contention that Prohibition put over during
the period of wartime hysteria and was mis-
take that ought to be corrected is that the cam
paign against spurious liquor began in 1908
and within another half century had been ex-
tended to include all sorts of Intoxicating LIQUOR
This argument is advanced by the Methodist
Beard of Temperance, etc. and it was used by
Mr.. McAdoo.
They do not seem to understand that the
answer does not meet the at all. The
fact is, that National Prohibition. the invasion
OF State rights in the premises, was put ovel
during the when the people were in self
sacrificing mood and 100000 of the young mer
