 Washington--Tho latest, up-to- date shipments from tho mammoth Warm Springs dope factory, sent north lust before tho president elect began his vacation, indicate that Mr Roosevelt is going to jump his first big ofiiclnl hurdle amid n chorus Of huzzahB which will be qualified by few if any groans of dIsapproval.
 Tho correspondents, after months Of trial and error, prob- ably now arc hitting close to the mark in predicting the makeup of the next cabinet. If so. Roose- welt is not only picking himself n cabinet with which neither the conservatives nor the liberals in his party can find fault--n fcnt heretofore regarded as virtually impossible. Ho will also have n cabinet distinguished for the recognized ability and pnst achievement of It's members. And oven tho republicans will have trouble finding targets in it for prompt attack.
 Tho slate now most common ly agreed upon picks Senator Cor dell Hull Of Tennessee for sccre- tary of state. Senator Carter Glass of Virginia for treasury. senator Thomas ]. Walsh of Montana for attorney general. Miss Frances Perkins of New York for labor, Henry Wallnce of Iowa for agriculture, Jesse Strauss Of New York for com mcrcc, James A. Farley of New York for post master general and Scntnor Bronson Cutting of New Mexico for interior. Relatively speaking, 1t doesn't mako much difference who becomes secretary of war and secretary of tho navy.
 Such a cabinet us tho ono out lined might Do considered almost impeccable. Those members rec garded as conservatives arc men highly regarded by most progress sivcs and tho liberal prospects nro in no sense nnnthcma 10 tho 0rdi- nary conservative. There's neither q rcactionary or q radical on tho list, though tho slate iS suro 10 draw some cheers from each ex- tremc. on tho other hand, thore'S mono among tho eight wh0so ap- pointmcnt would carry great ap. peal to Wall street or the biggest of Big Business.

Hull, father of the income tax and possessed of q prodigious knowledge of tariffs, economies and world trade, is ono whom thousands of thoughtful democrats have wished could he president. If we nreto enter debt tariff -m monetary-trade agreements with other nations, as Roosevelt desires, Hull is an ideal man for state.

Beer by Christmas IS just another slogan in the ash heap now. The popular belief now seems to be that we'll have beer by July 4tb. Why not make it Memorial Day or Flag Day' Why pick on July 4th? Un- less the Roosevelt administration can put more pressure on Congress than the present one there won't be any beer by Christmas.

The whole trouble with the vets. of course is they can't unite on one definite program of action Some want beer of a certain percentage legalized. Others are working for repeal of tbe 8tb amendment and return of control over liquor manufacture and sales to the individ- ual states. Personally we think that ihe 18th amendment should be repealed without any attempt to modify tbe Volstead Act. It is safe to assume tbat legalized beer won stop bootlegging and corruption of public officials That can only be brought about by serapping out entire system of prohibition.

 Tho municipal officers of Connec- lieut. agree In principle to the Blodgett bill discussed here Satur- day. That is a step ahead. As tho comm Issloner said in summing the results of Mondays conference, "We had better begin now to go as Sar ns we can go. If I could have the support of the men in this room for th,s plan, whether 1t would go into effect in 1884 or 1885, I could put it across" What municipal taxpayers across the stnte will demand, we feel sure. is that their officers give MT Blodgett that support.

The new Ford va for 1884 is
to be put on display here tomor-
row in the showrooms of Trevor
and Morris, Ford dealers, at 312
Simonton Street.
According to Frank Bentley,
manager of the local leadership,
the new Ford VS. has greater pow
er, more speed, quicker accelera-
ton, smoother performance, more
miles per gallon, especially at
higher speeds, and quicker start
ing in cold weather, plus refined
body lines and a new built-in sys-
tenn of clear vision body ventila-
ton.
The improvements in engine
performance are the result of the
use of new dual down-draft
carburetor and dual intake mani
fold which increase the engines
power approximately IL percent
and provide remarkable improve
ment in pickup. New water line
thermostats enable the engine to
reach quickly and to maintain
proper operating temperature.
1--WE are anxious to have the
public inspect the new Ford VS.
because it is the best car Ford
Motor Company ever built" said
Mr.. Bentley. "Basically, it is the
same car as the hundreds of
thousands of other gEord V-S's. on
the road. It simply Incorporates
numerous Improvements in engine
and chassis design, the new body
ventilation system and refine
ments in body styling and appoint
ments developed during the past
year"
Ventilating Feature
The new Ford ventilation sys-
tenn, which is built into the body,
permits clear vision, prevents
drafts and provides the desired
amount of fresh air in any wealth
er. Individual control is provided
for both front and rear side win
dows. When ventilation is desired
the window glass is raised to the
top. Then the handle is given an
additional half turn. This slides
the gass, back horizontally to form
a narrow slot between the glass
and the frame. Through this slot
air is drawn out by the forward
motion of the car.
The distinctive lines of the Ford
VS. have been refined in the
1884 car by a newly-designed radi-
ator shell and grille, new hood
louvres and the new hubcaps. Fen
