The Man for the Job

We see by the papers that Senator Borah may
be chosen by Hoover attorney general That is
an ideal We wouldn't have thought of it ourselves
because have been letting Hoover do the worrying
about cabinet posts the theory that that is his job
But since Borah has been mentioned, believe
lot can be said for such appointment.
Hoover apparently intends to concentrate the row
divided prohibition enforcement activities under the
attorney general Recognizing that enforcement fail
e has created one of the most serious national prob
lees Hoover may be thinking of candidates for the
attorney -generalshp in terms of their prohibition
prowess
1t SO happens that vein company with growing
millions of American citizens-are the opposite side
of the prohibition fence from Borah. He thinks the
present unpopular law can be enforced. We doubt it.
But we want the law, long it is the statute
books to be given the farest test possible The quicker
that test Is made, the better.
Hoover calls prohibition an experiment" Very
good. An experiment is thing that must prove itself
So far it has failed Give it better trial Then the
American people can decide
But the long advertised fair trial and the popular
decision this experiment not be delayed much
longer-it is getting far too expensive in terms of
crime.
That is where Borah comes in or a man like him.
He is militant dry. He is idol of the crusaders
He great prosecutor before he brilliant
legislator. He has ability. He has personal integrity
He has faith
BY all means put the experiment" in the hands
of that kind of man.
Then if it continues to fail even our dry friends
will admit that fact and act accordingly for modif-
cation. At least, assume that is what they mean
when they ask that prohibition be tried fairly.

Edward I. DohenY

When Edward L. Doheny walked out Oh tne
courtroom a free man, we sorry. We thought
he was guilty with Fall of criminal conspiracy to
defraud the government of its oil reserves We still
think so. The ruling of the supreme court against
him in the civil case convinced most Americans OF
his guilt.
1t seemed terrible thing to those who want to
believe in America and the justice of its courts that
this rich man should go unpublished while so many
poor men are vctimized by the legal system.
Doheny had made his fortune partly by seizing
and holding lands not rightfully his. He was above
the law in Mexico He above the law in the
United States
And when he was freed by the federal court in
Washington we hoped that some day, somehow, he
would meet the punishment he had escaped so long
Today Doheny is suffering at last. His son has
been murdered. To the public this is the same son
who carried the '1ttle black bag with the alleged
bribery bonds for Secretary Fall. But to Doheny it
is the son he loved the son in whom all the hopes
of an old and feeble centered.
Now that Doheny is suffering, we should be sat
isfed. But not. All our desire of an eye for
an eye and tooth for tooth is gone.
Our sympathy goes out to Doheny.

An Expert Speaks

HThis un-American form of government
takes the right of the people to govern them
selves away from them"
II is Lieutenant Governor Edgar a. BUSH
talking to a Republican club, and ne added
with ousto that he would give it Singing
blow between the eyes if he has anything to
do with its consideration before the legislature
AS to the propriety of the presiding officer
of the senate uttering such threats at sucn
time let those who will make comment AS
nresiding officer no one would expect other
wise from Bush. Nor would the most magma
tive qualify him as an expert in his othclal
capacity.
But when he describes anything as un-Amer-
ican, Bush has a record on which he might
reasonably hope to qualify as an expert
witness.
He made that record at Kansas City as re-
Gently as last June when he appeared during
the Republican national convention as the
leader of "patriots."
He stood, it will be remembered, on soap
box before the convention hall. He was then
saving the country from other "un-American
perils. In his hand was British flag, which
he waved with a fervor that might be described
as fanatical. And he shouted then, as he shouts
now, against "un-Americanism.
The peril at that time was Herbert Hoover.
Tt was Bush who YVES selected to lead the
Watsonian army of defense against this
"British" candidate for the presidency, who
was selected to initiate, not impersonate, Bar
bara Frietche, in the flag waving demonstra-
ton.
And he then declared that Hoover was
British, not an American, that to nominate him
meant surrender of all liberty. The results
of his effort to save the nation from the 'un-
American Hoover would have been discour-
aging to less ardent patriot. Not to Bush.
That his judgment was reversed by a Repub
hcan convention and later by many millions of
those who think themselves American, means
nothing to him
He still shouts The role of Cassandra is his
own to the end of the farce. And he is just as
right about the City Manager form of govern
ment as he was about Herbert Hoover.
The irony of it is that had not the popular
ity of Herbert Hoover so turned the attention
of Indiana voters away from the peculiar
''qualifcations of Bush as an expert on
Americanisnn, or as desirable president of the
senate, no one would care what he says about
anything

Pass This Bill
anything.

If there is one bill before the legislature
which should take first rank in Importance, it
is that measure introduced by Senator Win
field Miller providing for watchers in primary
elections.
1t should be extended to all City Manager
elections which take on, in character, aspects
Of both primaries and elections.
The bill is very simple. But it is one which
the politicians who thrive by fraud and crook
edness will fight most bitterly. 1t is the one
measure on which the votes Of members will
brand them as either crooks or honest men.
They can not be mistaken men on this question.
The measure provides that any group of ten
candidates in a primary election shall have
power to name, through some man of their
selection, set of watchers for every precinct.
They will turn over to him the task of seeing
that they are given the votes that are honestly
cast for them.
The failure of the primary, where it has
failed, has come through dishonesty and for
no other reason. The candidates have been
too often determined by stub pencils and
crooked returns after the people have voted
The revelations in the Updike recount
showed, to those who watched, that forty-one
of the precinct committeeman who voted to
name Coffin as city chairman and Mrs Arthur
Robinson as vice-chairman, significant group-
ing, were named by fraudulent count of ballots
There can be no relief from machine gov
eminent, with its graft, its pilferings, its op-
pressions rs protection of crime, its utter dis
regard for all decency until there are honest
elections.
No one would admit that the great majority
OF the people are dishonest at heart and vote
continuously for continuance of dishonesty.
The only explanation of the results in this
city and this state, is that the elections have
been shot through with fraud
There can be no objection to watchers at
the count of ballots if the count is to be hon
est. The watchers would serve without pay.
They would not be vassals of boss, drawing
down meager sums to protect his criminality.
They would represent not only those who offer
themselves for Office but the voters who have
cast their ballots.
Paramount IN Importance is this matter of
honest elections Until this is assured. all gov
eminent fails. This bill seems to offer one
safeguard. The combined forces of decency

other chemical union can take place.
Laboratory experiments support this view. For
example steam can be heated 20 so high tempera-
ture that it splits up into constituents hydrogen and
oxygen.
Lord Kelvin suggested that the contraction of the
accounted for the origin of its heat. But re-
cent calculations have shown that this alone would
not be sufficient.
The most satisfactory theory to date to account
for the suns energy has been advanced by Prof A. S.
Eddington, director of the Cambridge England OBJ
Servatory
1t is difficult to realize the tremendous amount of
energy radiated by the The earth receives less
than one two-hlndred millionth of the energy sent
out by the Yet the energy received each second
on each square yard of the earths surface is the
equivalent of about one and half horsepower.
1t is obvious that when other of power such
as coal and oil give out mankind will have only water
power left and therefore. will have to turn to the
more direct energy OF sunlight
Attempts have been made to utilize sunlight by
systems of mirrors which concentrate it on the boilers
OF steam engines. But no one has built such con-
trvaLace yet which is than per cent efficient.
But there is reason why the progress of inven-
ton should not eventually conquer the problem. And
the day may when the deserts. now the waste
places of the EARTH win be the scenes of the great
est industrial activity and the SUM- the source OF all
energy will aid mankind to carry his civilization
to new and undreamed of levels.
