JENSEN WOULD COMPEL
Tulsa TO TAKE FILING
Validity of Legislature Act In
Changing Election Date Is
Challenged In Suit

Suit was filed in district court
Monday by Andy Jensen, city
commissioner candidate, asking
a writ of mandamus to compel
Anton j. Tulsa, election commits
sioner, to accept his filing for a
city primary, April 7.
Jensen alleges the state legis-
lature endeavored, without legal
authority, to change the date Of
both the city election and pri-
mary, which are fixed in the city
charter.
Dates Changed.
He says the legislature sought
to fix the 1886 city election date
as the first Monday after the sec
ond Tuesday In May instead Of
the first Monday after the first
Tuesday; also that 1t attempted
to fix the primary date as four
weeks before the city election in
stead of five weeks.
As a result Of the law passed
by the last legislature, Jensen
says, the city primary would Be
held April IA and the city cleo
ton May u, instead of on April
and May 5 as fixed by the city
charter. He holds the legisla-
ture is without power to change
the charter.
Early Trial.
Jack W. Marer, deputy county
attorney, who will represent the
election commissioner, and ID. M.
Murphy, attorney for Jensen,
said the case would be tried as
isoon as possible, probably this
week.
If the district court holds the
election date changes are void
Marer said Governor Cochran
would be asked to include in bis
call for a special session legisla-
ton to change the date of the
state and county primary from
April IA to April 7 to coincide
with the city primary.
If the joint election can be ar
ranged approximately $4,000
will be saved by the city and
county in election costs.

that what might suit one President
would not suit another. This is true
in the matter of considering perma-
nent Summer home for the Presidents.
Frequent proposals Of permanent
place for the President to go for
weekend sojourns or for entire Sum-
mers have always been met with this
situation. Presidents, like all humans,
have different tastes and different hob
bieS and for that reason it is thought
unlikely that the Government will
ever go to the expense of trying to
fit up a Summer home as a perma-
nent proposition.
The trick of fate which did the one
really nautically minded President out
of real sea-going presidential yacht
is all the more interesting when it is
recalled that it was another Roosevelt,
President Theodore Roosevelt, who
first acquired yacht for the President.
1t was he who obtained the Mayhower
after that boat had acquired its en-
viable record during the Spanish
American War.
Knowing Franklin Roosevelt's fond
ness for cruising, some of the high
command of the Navy suggested, soon
after he came into Office more than
two and a half years ago. that the
Niagara, a former yacht Of the late
Howard Gould, be turned over to him.
The President did not acquiesce, and
this craft has since been taken out
of commission and sold for scrap
iron,

that the President favored move
ment to bring the Constitution, the
Constellation, the Hartford and some
of the other relics of the early days
of the Navy to Washington for preser-
walton. He sent word to the White
House that he would be glad to sell the
Mayfewer back to the Government for
$25O,00O. 1t is understood that its
sale price as junk was only few thou

After getting rid of the Mayflower,
President Hoover soon discovered that
he needed vessel of some kind for
week end sojourns. His inquiries re-
suited in the acquisition of the Sc
quota. This little craft was then in
the service of the Department of Com
merce, being used as an inspection
boat for the Lighthouse Service. 1t
had been bought at bargain by the
department from a woman who had
been a victim Of the depression and
needed some ready cash. After some
refitting it was made suitable for Mr..
Hoover's purposes. Mr.. Roosevelt took

matriarchy. Every Summer when their
wives go to the country they have
a glorious opportunity to usurp GER
tain distinctly feminine prerogatives
and try their hand at houSework.
Yet time and experience do not i'm
prove their technique. They come
out of their annual dip into domestic
ity no wiser and much sadder.
If the average wife were required
to assume the sole management Of
her husbands business for six weeks
every Summer, she would soon learn
its why's and wherefores and adapt
herself easily to the unfamiliar office
environment. But no matter how
often the average husband assumes
the sole management Of a house, he
remains a novice to the end. And
his ineptness in household matters is
the indisputable proof of his maScu-
Unity. He may wear a feather In
his hat and lavender cravat. He
may even succumb to the blandish-
ments of the haberdashery salesman
and put on pink shirt. But after
one glance at his single handed ef-
forts to keep the home fires burning
no one could ever accuse him OF
effeminacy His menage Is 100 per
cent herman.
Masculine housekeeping is as dif-
ferent from feminine housekeeping as
Sixth avenue is from Fifth. It gets
down to fundamentals and reverts
atavistically to the age when existence
was merely Q struggle to keep body
and soul together. It Is reminiscent
Of prehistoric days when the human
species was blundering Through Life

available food-receptacle has been
used does he get down to the grim
business of tidying up.
Soap is a negligible factor in the
manly art of dishwashing. Most men
prefer the percussion method; they
turn both faucets of the sink wide
open and let the force of the water
knock the dirt off the dishes. This
is easier than the friction method, by
which the dishes are rubbed with an
embroidered questioned until rea-
sonably smooth. The only disadvan-
tage is that the drain-pipe Of the sink
often becomes clogged with fragments
of rare old Lowestoft. But you Will
discover that as the Summer advances
YOU have fewer and fewer dishes to
wash-and that's something.
Bed-making, like dishwashing, Is a
task that can be postponed only so
long. The temporary bachelor with a
whole house at his disposal can play
Goldilocks and sleep first in one bed
and then In another-but eventually
the supply Of fresh beds is exhausted:
Then he must face realities ana
wrinkles.
Time, the great healer, can do moth
ing for an unmade bed. Return 70 IL
after an absence of q week or even a
month and it will be as unmade as
ever. Therefore, after you have slept
in every bed in the house YOU might
as well confine yourself to one bed
and resign yourself to making it every
day. The great drawback to the sys-
tenn of rotating from bed to bed Is
that the beds themselves look az II
they had been yotatob too.

Walter Jones, senior lieutenant in
the Navy.
1t was during a journey to a cele-
bration at Cape Henry, Va, several
years ago that President Roosevelt
had ample reason to discover, during
a heavy storm, that the Sequoia was
not built for heavy seas. The little
craft rolled and tossed in most dam
gerous fashion and its conduct gave
the conveying ships deep concern.

Yet in its crudity there is an inno-
cent charm which is lacking in the
refined efficiency of the home eco
Monies experts. Only after living alone
for a couple of weeks can q man ap-
preciate the full flavor of unburnt
toast, the cool smoothness of clean
sheet, the esthetic perfection of an un-
clouded drinking glass. AS an in
voluntary ascetic, his senses grow
keener through privation until all the
minor comforts of life have a new
significance.
Variety is the keynote of masculine
housekeeping. A conscientious house,
wife may pride herself on the number
of new dishes she can serve. But to
her a dish means something to eat.
whereas to the housekeeping husband
it means something to be eaten from.
He finds variety not in the cuisine,
but in the crockery. During the first
week he runs the gamut Of the china
closet from soup plates to nut dishes.
Common sense tells him that it is
more efficient to wash all of the dishes
some of the time than to wash some
of the dishes all of the time. So he
stacks them in the sink, intending to
stage an apocalyptic cleanup at some
future date.
A s THE stack mounts higher. his
= choice of utensils grows more
bizarre, and by the end of fortnight
you will be likely to find him eating
beans from q cut-glass punch bowl
and drinking beer from silver mug
