Costly Senate Campaigns
MinneaDOliS .JOu

AAAA
While the senate has been closely watching expendi-
lures in senatorial contests ever since Truman Newberry
was forced out for spending nearly 100000 in q Mich
tgan contest, it has made no progress whatever in reduc-
ing such expenditures.
On the contrary, Ruth Mccormick spent $252,000 of her
own money in the recent Illinois primary, and Senator
Grundy went down to defeat In the Pennsylvania pri-
mary, after using 1921 900 of his own funds.
Ware for having spent nearly eight hundred Thousand
dollars to win the Pennsylvania seat, and of MI. Smith for
spending about four hundred thousand for a similar pur-
pose in Illinois, the point In his case being the acceptance
Of contributions from public utilities, while he was still a
member of the state commission.
It is evident that the Ware and Smith exclusions have
not prevented heavy spending in populous states, dom
mated by strong political organizations. For while senate
committees have vigorously investigated and ruthlessly
exposed, they have suggested no means by which rich
men who run for the senate may be prevented from
spending freely. nor by which poor men may run without
getting the backing Of some powerful machine or Of rich
friends.
So long as we have the direct primary. we shall have
ately, we have no entrenched political machine ready to
spend money freely for its candidates., and against which
no independent aspirant can hope for success without
heavy expenditures.
But even here we have one candidate who, by reason
OF his present tenure of the office, can use the govern
ment's printing presses and mail service to flood the state
with literature in his own behalf with trifling eXpendi-
lures. Suppose his opponents were pouring out thousands
which. Of course, they are not. Would the senate then
investigate and condemn them, and perforce acquit him
for unfair use Of the ranking privilege?
Obviously, restriction Of campaign expenditures on any
II senate seats are not to be auctioned off to rich men,
or monopolized by state machines, or mortgaged to those
who happen to hold them, some more thoroughgoing
measures will have to be taken.
The senate might begin by disciplinng itself. and by
c~urtailing the campaign advantages it insures to its own
members seeking reelection.

The British Submarines

When we hear mentioned the activities of submarines
In the World war, we generally assume that it Is German
submarines that are being spoken Of; they were the ones
that made the submarine a sign and a portent, at all
events. But the Allies, likewise, had submarines and
used them, and the fact is worth remembering.
A writer in the current issue of Worlds Work, for in
stance, reveals the fact that British submarines during
the World war sank 81 enemy naval vessels and 24
transports and supply ships. While this total does not,
of course, compare with the German record, 1t is never
theless impressive, considering that German ships sell
dom ventured far enough out at sea to be within the
submarines range.
This writer also shows that 81 British submarines were
lost. Fully a third Of all British sailors In submarine
service lost their lives.
The British submarine service, no less than the Ger
man. set a record. for heroism and achievement during
the war.

Working for the Future

The telephone industry must work constantly to meet
present needs and prepare for demands of the future.
In 1929 the industry spent $685. 100000 for additions,
improvements, requirements and new manufacturing
facilities. This year the total will exceed $780, 100000.
These expenditures are directly reflected in broader
and better telephone service. The time necessary for in
staning telephones has been cut nearly in half in five
years. Wrong numbers" which are the faults of opera
tors are all but nonresident. In a few minutes long dis
lance connections can be made with a town so miles away
or q country half across he world. Every dollar spent by
the industry produces improved and extended service.

She had liked It well enough to
take 1t without waiting for Alan's
approval. But she did not mean
to tell him that she had paid .

She found him seated before his
desk. which was Uttered with
papers, and instantly guessed that
he had not been able to concen-
trate N his work.
She looked at him for the scars
Of battle. Evidently everything had
gone of satisfactorily at the con.
ference and luncheon. He appeared
excited, but not disappointed.
She sank YEARLY into her &C.
customed seat, the chair by his
desk. She had removed the rouge
from her cheeks. and left only
enough on her lips to give them
character. She looked wan. and
tired. As she was. for this fight
to keep Alan was an earnest one
with her. She had worried over
it all the night before.

thetically.
She nodded. II think So" she
said doubtfully. There's q place

Phillipa grasped her opportunity
seeing his discomhture-and got up.

she said. I'D like to get q hot
bath before dinner. And Alan. I

Of dining with Phillipa that night.
Perhaps it would be better for
you to stay home and 90 to bed

loaded with reproach. Il got to

over in tho fact Of his meeting
Natalie? It was a natural thing
for Natalie to wire him. She
wouldn't want to ask q friend to
be at the station. So far a. he
knew. their separation was still =

their acquaintances.
And Natalie was the Kind Of
woman who would want to do
things up decently. once she was

jealousy. She. had a fine. orderly

faded. No. it probably wouldn't

Phillipa sensed he was In q mood
that she could turn to her account.
A bit Of guilt, a bit of pity for
her, q bit Of longing for Natalie. q
bit Of desire to do the right thing
for both Of them.
"Whe -. re shall I look for an

Phillipa foresaw he might want to

It might be merely expediency
that would bring them together at

But it amused her that Alan could

he was separated from Natalie.

she could offer him a resting place.

and she could coax him to take q

had said not one word to indicate
that his decision was changed.

she had controlled herself enough
to know that II he could not be

Moving Mountain No Miracle

When Paul the apostle was casting about in his mind
Tor a feat that could stand as a symbol OF the impossible,
he hit upon the moving Of a mountain. The faith that
could move a mountain-that, to Paul, was the strongest
expression possible.
Were Paul alive today, however, he would have to look
Tor a new symbol. Not that our faith has progressed;
hardly that. in an age Of skeptics. But we can move
mountains, at any rate.
In Seattle there has been q mountain called Denny
Hill. To be sure. one has to stretch things a trifle to call
it a mountain. But at any rate, 1t was a very high hill,
covering some 90 acres of ground and towering above the
tops of the office buildings.
This mountain, or hill, was very much in seattles way.
It loomed up on the edge of the business district and
choked off the expansion that Seattle needed. So, a year
ago, Seattle decided to get it out Of the way. Steam
shovels, long conveyor belts and a fleet of scows were
put to work, and Denny Hill began to crumble.
BY next fall this particular mountain will be no more.
Reduced to mud and stones, it will be distributed all over
the bottom of Puget Sound. In its place will be a 90
acre tract Of perfectly level ground, ready for new stores,
office buildings, railway stations, hotels and apartment
houses.
There isn't anything so very out OF the way in this
performance. Seattle doesn't seem greatly excited about
it, and the job has not drawn much attention elsewhere.
But there is something about it that strikes US as ex-
tremely romantic and highly significant.
Moving a mountain .... just part OF the days work,
to an American city; just as Chicago found. it all part
of the days work to make q river run uphill. The sup
posedly immutable forces of nature, then, are not i'm
mutable at all. The world is not in the least fixed and
unchangeable. 1nanimate natures long period Of over
lordship has ended.
That is the sort Of thing which this Seattle perform
ance symbolizes.
Americans have been criticized frequently for being
too obsessed with material values, with taking more de-
light in accomplishments in the world of material things
than in the i~ntangibles Of creative art. Well, why not?
Isn't there something tremendously important in this
conquest of nature? Isn't 1t rather momentous that
men have discovered that the physical world can be re-
made?
Seattle's removal of a mountain is the sort OF thing,
really, that calls for poems Of praise and jubilation. 1t
is a thing to exult in. We are observation-disclosures we
are triumphing over materialsn.
