Up POSITION AS
FRENCH PREMIER

PARIS, July 20. tU.H) - Ahdfe
Tardieu, minister of the interior, in
formed the United Press tonight
that Premier Raymond Poincare had
resigned
PARIS, July &c U.R) - The csbi-
net council at a meeting tonight will
consider the resignation of Premier
Raymon Poincare because of the
state of his health, it was said on
good authority.
Poincare wrote letter which he
gave to Tardieu, saying he was
obliged to take three to -four
months rest so he could have an
operation. Hence, Poincare said, he
was unable to exercise the func
tions of premier.
On the basis of the letter to Tar
dieu, the cabinet council was call.
ed for tonight. Two solutions are
possible. First Aristide BRAND
could retain his post of foreign
minister and become premier at
the same time, with the assumption
that he would step aside when
Poincare is ready to return to pub
lie life. Second, the entire cabine,
could resign and BRAND form 8
new government, eliminating sew
eral cabinet members who have
been storm centers and retaining
as nucleus, Tardieu, Cheron and
Forgeot.

An Embargo on Ideas

In addition to It's other nquities the pending tariff
bill contains provisions which might enable the Gus
toms officials to bar all publications from abroad ex-
pressing doctrines not approved by them
Publications urging treason, Instruction, or fore
be resistance any law of the United States or con-
tanning any threat to take the life of or nct bodily
harm upon the President" are classified with obscene
and immoral" books and drawings and to be seized
and destroyed
The mischief is in the possible construction to be
placed upon the wording by the censors This is shown
by the house committee report, which described the
amendn1cat only as one against "seditious an
archistc" literature.
Under the well-known governmental custom OF
searching committee hearings reports for clue as
to what congress wanted, customs officials might think
themselves Justified in barring any foreign literature
containing anything even approaching the writings of
the one who said DO unto others as We would have
others do unto you"
This approaches anarchy, since philosophical an
archists hold that all laws are bad and mankind
should throw them away and depend upon the Golden
Rule.
Even the mildly socalistc writings of such men as
H G. Wells which picture as the ideal commonwealth
one removed about as far as possible from the pres
ent United States of America, might be barred
What the customs officials might feel themselves
empowered to do is shown by their proceedings under
the obscenity statute already the law On the pro-
scrbed list is long series of world classics There isn't
doubt that they thought it would be tolerated the
customs men could bar the Bible and Shakespeare's
works from importation under the clause.
The power to ban ideas is too much power to give
any federal employee. The new provision should be
stricken from the bill.

Burning LIQUOR Issue

THE story goes that a house
Il containing pigs once was burned
in China. Whereupon the neigh
bors found themselves feeding
beautifully and Unexpectedly on
roast pork.
If once why not often" reasoned
a bright young man, and set forth
to fire and burn all the house con-
tanning pigs he could find.
1t goes without saying that the
neighbours eventually decided that
roast pork was not worth such q
price.
1t looks as though We Americans
very shortly will be called upon to
decide whether prohibition is.
A Wisconsin judge sets aside the
conviction Of q constable for arson
on the ground that it is not a crime
to burn a shack where "moonshine
IS being made.
while the officer perhaps had no
right to set fire to the shack" he
says, and should not have done So
yet this building being part of a site
for the manufacture of moonshine
there was no property right in it,
hence the offense charged against
him was not committed"

to say the least. and one that would
have some far-reaching conSe-
quences, if generally applied.

No attempt to classify the clouds was made until
naturalist Lamarck. 1t did not receive much atten-

The next suggestion was made two years later. in
1903. by the English naturalist. Luke Howard. How

ficaton met with favor and was widely used for
than century.
In 1910 the international meteorological committee
in order TO insure uniformity of meaning in
meteorological reports and articles, adopted an Of
fetal Technology for clouds.
This further perfected in a publication called
Cloud Forms published by the British meteoroogi-
cal Office in 1921.
This latest classification. like that OF 1910, follows
the general lines of Towards.

arce This is felt to be the most natural convenient
type of classification.
Clouds cannot be classified easily to origin, be-
cause the same type OF cloud may form in variety
of ways and it is not always possible to be OF

The Danger in Speculation
cided

Fresh warning Of the danger of excessive specu-
lstion in the stock market is contained in survey
on money and credit prepared by w. Randolph
Burgess federal reserve agent Of New York, and
o. NJ. sprague of Harvard.
Particular importance attaches to their study. 1t
was prepared for the committee on recent economic
changes of which President Hoover is chairman. The
committee is continuation of the unemployment
conference of 1922 and the President is said to
have kept in touch with the preparation of the report
The demand for loans that seems almost without
limit and which is not checked by advances in inter
st rates cannot fail to affect unfavorably the de-
veopnent and functioning OF the New York money
market as great and reasonably stable national and
world financial center" says the report
And this significant observation IS made: The
possibilities of eectuay restraining intense specu-
ative activity through sharp and even drastic action
have not been tested.
There is nothing to indicate that the reserve board
contempates any further steps at this time IN its
attempt TO check speculation. The committees view
seems TO be- however that the board has the authority
and the means to act if it becomes necessary.
The report is an important contribution to the
controversy that has developed over the speculative
situation and the policies OF the reserve board 1t is
in effect. an answer to the group which has argued
that the board should have kept hands of.
The views of this group were illustrated in the
speech last week Of E. H H Simmons, president OF
the New York Stock Exchange who assailed the board.
Simmons speech was applauded warmly in some

COURAGE on the Bench

TT is not contempt Of court to adj
l. mire some judges more than
others. In happy contrast to this
Wisconsin minoS, there is Judge
Bailey of West Virginia. who re-
signed from the bench rather than
sentence a man to death whom he
believed had been convicted on
perjured testimony.
The man is Clyde Beale, charged
with the murder Of Mrs. CriSSie
Purdue, three years ago.
Judge Bailey presided at the trial
which was held two years ago.
After the verdict of guilty had
been returned and before sentence
had been passed, Judge Bailey be-
came convinced that some of the
evidence was false, and when the
time came to pass sentence, he gave
Beale life imprisonment instead of
death, as the verdict called for.
The prosecuting attorney took the
case to the supreme court and the
supreme court ordered Judge Bailey
to pronounce the death sentence.
Rather than do this, Judge Bal
ley resigned, and another judge pro-
nounced the sentence.
Since that time. the argument as
to the justice of Beale's sentence
has ragged furiously throughout
West Virginia, with his mother lead
ing the fight in his behalf.
