Wagner's Appeal
TMPLOYNtENT by the Senate commit
n tee investigating the lobby evil of
John q Holland as special investigator

AYO one has summed up the New York
III mayoralty campaign better than Sen
ator Robert F. Wagner in the speech
he delivered over the radio from Washing
ton. 1t is a lawyer-ike appeal, calm and
dispassionate, and yet most convincing.
Senator Wagner enumerated the various
pledges that Mayor Walker had made in
his campaign four years ago:
l. To maintain the five-cent fare.
2. To bring about traffic relief.
8. To make street and highway improve
ments.
4. To eliminate grade crossings.
5. To speed school construction.
6. To build bridges and vehicular tun-
nels.
As the Senator points out, the pledge to
maintain the five-cent fare has been carried
out to the very end, and, in the Others more
has been accomplished and started in four
years than in the previous twenty.
1t is because Mayor Walkers campaign
pledges Of four years ago have been shown
to be not mere empty speeches that there
never has been any question Of his over
whelming election since the day he consented
to run.

NEW YORK. Nov. 1.
VVHIS is the story of two princes
of royal blood and one Of
those American good fellows-a
rich bachelor who knocks about
queer corners of the globe. He
met them at a dinner party in
France several years ago. They

family of noble lineage, but sud

were broke-stony!
This is where the rich bachelor
came in. They confided their
ambitions. They knew something

About the only form Of manual

Hollands Choice
Benefits Public

TMPLOYMENT by the Senate commit
Ia tee investigating the lobby evil OF
John G. Holland as special investigator
and legal adviser is heartily to be welcomed
by the public for two reasons
First, because no better earnest could be
offered by the committee at the outset OF
the investigation of its firm resolve to probe
the lobby evil to the bottom and expose
to public view its insidious menace to
popular government.
Second, because both by training and
experience Mr. Holland appears to be well
qualified to give to the committee any addi-
tional legal advice and assistance that may
be necessary in an investigation Of this
sort.
It was Mr.. Holland, who developed much
of the evidence that enabled Senator Walsh
of Montana, to force the oil Investigation OF
five years ago which began with Teapot
Dome and ended in the cancellation Of the
naval oil leases by the Government.
Mr. Holland is member of the District
of Columbia bar and was an assistant in
the office Of Senator Walsh of Montana,
when he began the study of law.
The fact that the committee investigating
the lobby evil has retained as its special
counsel one of the trailblazers in the Tea
pot Dome scandal will assure the public
that the Senate is serious in its determina-
tion to hit the trail of all lobbies and hunt
down every lobbyist seeking to pollute
legislation at its source.
Regardless of the time it takes, regardless
of the expense required, regardless of the
regulations involved, the Senate's investiga-
tion of the lobby evil will be justified a
hundred fold if it emancipates the Federal
Government from these sappers against its
integrity and provides legislative protection
against their return.

CASSIDY PLEASED
 WITH GRID SQUAD
Dark Horse Candidates Feature
 in Daily SCrimma6e Session

Dark horse candidates featured the scrimmage Of the New Britain high school football team yesterday afternoon and so optimistic was Coach George NJ. Cassidy after it's conclusion that he started ncgotia- tions for d game on September 2S, the opening date of the season.
 Last night Coach Cassidy used a new man in the bacllfield Ed klo- Der, who featured with several good gains through the second team line. Little was expected of Kloiber when he tried for the team but his long distance kicking attracted the at tention of the coach and he decided 10 try him in the backfeld. So well has he been going that many are predicting that he will make the regular team. Another newcomer who is rated highly and will make the regular eleven if he keeps up his good work is Dick Fink. He is being used as regular end.
 The regular team consisted Of Dumin, center; Mikalauskas and Potts, guards; LudwinoWicz and Schmarr, tack!es; Bogdanski and Fink, ends; Ross, quarterback; Man gan and Kioibnr, right halfback; Middleton, left halfback and Carl son, fulback.
 The second team lined up as fol- lows: Grimala, center; Zimmetro- Wicz and Parda, guards; Neverdoski and Sargesian. tackles; Smecko and Linnehan, ends; Zaleslli, quarter back: Lipman and Steinle, halfbacks and Nanesso, fullback.
 The second team offered strong resistance and the elevens battled well throughout the afternoon. Coach Cassidy has some very heavy candidates on his squad. Two of them "Pcnoke" LudwinoWiCz and Stanley Neverdoski tip the scales well over 190 pounds. The latter is captain-clcct of next years track team.
 Coach Cassidy expects that the uniforms will arrive on Monday next. Contrary to the usual policy Friday night practice session will be held today. The coach feels that the boys are in need of added train ing.
