Now AS To Politics

Rep. Harry NJ. Wurzbach, republican, Will not cross
over to the democratic side to insure the election of
his democratic colleague John N. Garner as speaker.
Why should he?
Harry M. is a regular republican. He follows the
republican flag or standard. He believes in the poll
cies of the republican party. He sticks TO his guns
and the nominees OF his party. He is a two party
man. Herbert Hoover is his chieftain.
Ohio elected several democratic representatives
Not a mothers son will invade the republican eau
Gus and cast his ballot for Nick Longworth Tor
speaker. He would lose his Job if he did. Harry
wurzbach represents a democratic district and he
was reelected By democratic voters. They knew him
to be a regular republican. They know that he would
stand pat for the elephant without being hitched.
Business is business and politics is an inportan.
branch Of business and the regulars Of all party af-
filiations recognize the fact.
AS for independent republicans and independent
democrats who wander away from their reservations
at will. they are satisfied with themselves. A party
pledge is not binding. at least in Texas, and there
is no law against an independent democrat voting
for a republican or an independent republican voting
for an independent democrat. In politics Wurzbach
goes all the road and not half the road. It is his big
business-"he has been a winner six times in II
years"
There are six women on the roster of the old
house Of the American congress. They are: Flor
ence p. Kahn. republican OF California; Edith Nourse
Rogers. republican Of Massachusetts,. and Ruth Baker
Plat, republican Of New York. All three stood for
reelection and are among the winners. There are
three democrats: Ruth Bryan Owen Of Florida
Mary T. Norton Of New Jersey, and Effie Gene Wingo
OF Arkansas. They maintain an even balance on the
prohibition question-three republicans. three demJ-
Gratis. three vets and three drys.
Mrs. katherine Langley Of Kentucky vas defeated
for reelection. She is a republican and represented
one Of the Kentucky districts that has been over
whelnlinely republican. Ruth Hanna is q member
OF the old house and will retire to her Illinois farm
next year. Pearl Peden Oldfeld Of Arkansas was
rendered a nomination but refused TO run. Her hus-
band. a representative from Arkansas, died in office
She declined to be his successor.
Ruth Baker Plat Of New York Is q very wealthy
woman and represents one Of the most aristocratic
districts Of the Empire state Of the East. She is a
republican and a dripping vet. a total abstainer, an
enemy OF the saloon system, but she Is thoroughly
convinced that prohibition law enforcement Is a
dismal failure. Perhaps she is right: but one-third

Celia went to the bedroom, where
she had left her travelling bag. "A
glance IN the indistinct mirror
over the dressing table showed her
how completely she had forgotten
her appearance. The red-rimmed
eyes were swollen. Her hair was
Gnkempt and there was a glossy

She went to the bathroom and

Miniature golf viii have q
laboratory in Chicago. where legal
and economic problems Of golf
course owners will be investigated
and solutions worked out.
The need for such laboratory
was occasioned by the fact thai
the Chicago city council is plan
ming to pass an ordinance which
may prove detrimental to minia
tlre golf course owners. To off
set the possibility of an unfavor-
able ordinance, representative
owners at q meeting pooled expert
enceS and attempted to determine
some of the serious problems now
facing Americas newest industry.
Samuel A. Rinella, legal adj
wiser for the National Association
OF Miniature Golf Courses, has
been asked by Assistant Corpora
fion Counsel Foss, of Chicago, to
present the case fer the course
owners.
Many leading cities of the coun,
try have passed legislation that
seems unreasonable to the pro-
prietors, Mr.. Rinella has declared.
Chicago wants the association TO
draft an ordinance that will be
fair to everybody. 1t is the aim
Of the association to have an or

tions to meet the approval of golf
course owners and at the same
time permit the city to nave a

STAUTNON, Va, Sept. 30,-1t
was learned here authoritatively
that counsel for Representative
Jacob A. Gerber, of the seventh
Virginia district, Is ready to make
a new move In an attempt to
have his name placed on the No
vember election ballots as a con-
gressional candidate, thus rsTnedy-
ing an omission brought about
by Mr.. CARRIERS own neglect in
failing to comply with the State
election law, which requires that
formal notice of candidacy be
filed with the secretary of the
commonwealth so days before
the day on which the voters go
to the polls.
New Efforts Made
Duncan Curry, of this city,
who with Capt. John Paul, of
Harrisonburg, heads Iarber's
counsel. stated that no "affirma
tive action" had been taken, since
Circuit Judge Julien Guni,. of
Richmond, ruled adversely on
the application of Representative
CARRIER and M. j. Putnam, of
the Tenth district, who shares
Garber's predicament, for o writ
of mandamus.
He added, however, that friends
of Mr.. CARRIER had not been in
active in the interval, and that
new efforts in behalf Of the EN-
barraSsed candidates would be
launched at once. An announce
ment is expected by Monday.
Representative CARRIER on the
afternoon of Saturday, September
6, formally notified Secretary of
the Commonwealth Peter Saund-
ers of his intention to be a
candidate. Subsequently, the at
torney general held that mid
night, Friday, September 5,
marked the close of the 60-day
period before election allowed by
low.
Served Notice
CARRIER then issued a prepared
statement in which he criticized
the attorney-general's opinion on
technical and practical grounds
and served notice that he would
carry his case to the courts and,
If he lost there, his supporters
would write or stamp his name
on the ballots.
