grown in potcal stature and tucked away at the end
of of his interviews he said something sound ana
simple farreachng and profound indicating that ne mas
the capabilities, if not the language of statesman:
Since Henri w. after forty years of civil war; promised
chicken the fire to every Frenchman for his Sun
day dinner nothing penetrating has been said about
the purpose of government The ultimate object OF our
laws says Governor Murray shoud be to get one man
in love with one and get them to own home
What Object?
masterly if somewhat confused statement. Politi-
clans forget it. they think the ultimate object is to pro-
tect certain industries to reduce certain taxes to protect
tths group to pacate that They think the creation
of the Federal Reserve the Farm Board is worthy
end in itself they think (being mostly lawyers that laws
are good by magical process quite detached from
human life. They like stamp collectors who give a
strange value to stamps which, fundamentally are only
valuable when they attached to letters
The Governors statement carries US back to first prnc
pes The object of laws should be the happiness of the
citizens In his single sentence he congresses three
explosive ideas, which should be examined in reverse
order.
Practical
First there is the practical pont "Get them to own
home" This isn't as simple it seems. You have to
make homecoming practicable and pleasant you COULD
the basis of this hafsenence alone start campaign
of housing which would restore prosperity IN SIX months
and would keep it going. (Merey living IN mouse cans
for such endless expenditures for gadges and plumbing
and electric appliances and for so many services that
money simply flows into circulation When you own
home the investment is cheerfuly made and more
money rolls out. This is good for buslness') Home
owners moreover fairly conservative, our govern
ment would be tree from VOlenC unHedNdS HAHu, lIdy
thew hate mortgages l am afraid it is up to the Gov
ernor to show how they be made to homes with
out taking out mortgages minor point.
Moral
Second there is the sound morality of the Governors
creed CONE man in love with ONE woman" Here you
find no traffic with the dubious morality which frs with
poygamy and calls free love- The Governor does not
actually mention marriage but the idea of the home
covers that he is in favor of faithful monogamy-
quite number of modernsts are coming round to the
idea that he be right do not know how the popua
ton is divided into at the moment but the disparity
cannot be great There is man somewhere for every
woman and the moment these two meet object IS
attained. .~-..... ....
Now What?
The third point is in the single word get The ulti-
mate object of laws should be to get man in love
with one woman. :" Hat in hand, honoring the Gov
ernor (and potential President), don't know how he
proposes to go about it. Fifty years from now when
the Anti-Saloon League is openly in power we may be
docie enough to submit to law compelling to love;
at the moment few shreds of savage independence
make this difficult

Which goes to prove how up to the minute this story of love and politics in the capital city proves to be. Lionel Barrymore moves magnificently through its scenes from that mo- rnent in the governors office when his plea saves boy from the elec- tric chair. through all those tu- multuous moments and luxurious passages as he begins to taste the glamor and the riches of Washing ton.
