Boom In Weddings
One Response OF
Return OF Peace

New York.-A boom in marriages
was one response to the return of
peace, we are told by the statisticians
of the Metropolitan Life Insurance
company. In the six months from
June through November following
We day, the number of marriage
licenses issued in the larger cities
of the tCited States showed a gain
of 10 per cent over the same period
OF 1914, in contrast to the decline
of almost 3 per CEN that had been
registered in the period January
through May.
Marriages in 1945. the statisticians
report, were well above the figure
for 1910, when selective service first
went ito eject. At that time, fol-
lowing the fall Of France, marriages
increased in number and rose to a
peak when the draft at was beng
discussed in Congress during Aug
ust 1910. This squirt was followed
by a sharp recession IN the months
following the passage of the act.

But Mr.. Bilbo, being Mr.. Bilbo,

Now, in effect, he has been elected
to his third term as United States
Senator and, so far as I know. there
isn't single colleague who holds his
nose when he passes Bilbo's seat.
In his campaign for reelection, as
usual, Mr.. Bilbo again spewed race

cestors have sat in the United States
Senate. And his course in the war
was as unusual as it was commend
able.
1t will be recalled that Senator
Lodge resigned his seat in the Sen
ate to GO into the Army. There was
not the least need for him to do
that. No one thought he should. He
had Just been elected. The chances
all were that he could continue in
- the Senate for as many terms as he
wanted.
To resign looked like the end of a
promising political career-and so
he was told. His seat could not be
held open for him. There were other
strong and popular Republicans In
Massachusetts,; Senator Saltonstall,
elected in 1914, is one of them. Once
out, 1t is not easy to get back in
Massachusetts,.
Quiet Departure.
Notwithstanding all this ana not
withstanding, too, his desire to stay
In public life, Senator Lodge re-
signed. Nor did he, as easily he
might have done. capitalize or ad-
vertise his resignation. There was
no publicity about the patriotic
young statesman sacrificing his
career to fight for his country .
There was no hero stuff" about his
departure. There were no pictures
taken, no radio farewell to his con-
stituents, no speeches or parting
gifts, no senatorial reception at
which he received the congratula-
tions of his colleagues, no tributes. Z"
In brief, Senator Lodge did not
behave like a politician; he behaved
like a gentleman. When his resig-
nation became known he was al
ready in uniform and abroad with
the Army. And there he stayed
until the war was over. He saw a
lot of action; he made good rec
ord, and he came back with as
little publicity as he had when he
went away.
Naturally, he wants to get back
into public life. Everybody in Mas
sachusetts knew that, and every
body expected him to take the first
chance. 1t is not exactly break
for Senator Lodge that the first
chance is in running against Sen
ator Walsh.
Tough Assignment.
The other strong Republican,"
in the State had no burning desire
to run against Senator Walsh. Sem
ator Lodge himself certainly would
have preferred something easier.
For Senator Walsh is recognized as
the best vote getter in Massachu-
setts. He has been Lieutenant Gov
ernor, Governor and now Senator for
four terms. He never has been
beaten in an election. Yet some
body had to run against him and
Mr. Lodge was the indicated man
If he had said, "Oh, no, not me-"
he would really have closed the door
on his career. as Senator Saltonstall
will be renominated in 1850 and
there would have been no other
opening for Mr.. Lodge.
So there he is-in there contend
ing against the most popular Demo-
crat in the State, an experienced
and effective campaigner with a
well-organized machine. Though
friendly enough personally the fight
will be without gloves, and the con-
trast between the two is striking
the old man against the young one;
the one going up, the other going
down, as different physically and
in most other ways as men well can
be.
Significant Contest.
1t is one of the most significant
contests in the country, and the in
teresting thing is that the belief

A Look at the Record.
Overlooking his offensiveness as
a member of the Senate, let us con-
slider his record. Probably few Sen
ators remember that as a State Sen
ator of Mississippi, Mr.. Bilbo on one
occasion confessed to having taken
S645 (merely to satisfy his curiosity
ne averred to vote for Leroy Percy
for United States Senator against
James K. Vardaman.
According to an article printed In
PM on June 80, the Sepate of Mis-

seemed to have more self respect

States, after an investigation. con-

elected by the people-and this is as
it should be-"
I wonder If the Senate will ignore
its obligation to the people that this
editorial so clearly points out. The
constitutional power to purge its
own membership was given de-
liberately and for a purpose. If
the United States Senate is willing
to accept and fraternize with a
man of Mr.. Bilbo's character, can
not conceive of any one to whom it
could possibly take exception. 80 The
old adage that "one is judged by
the company that he keeps" applies
to the United States Senate.

served for many years as an able
and respected member of the House
of Representatives. 1t might be as
suned that he would not make
ligatly accusatiCos that could be
used as the basis for libel suit by

FMr. Collins during his campaign said:
I charge that Senator Bilbo
received s25,OO0 graft from a war
contractor corporation for whom
Bilbo secured contracts
Nor was Mr.. Collins satisfied
merely to make charges. He pro-
duced evidence, which was con-

them in an editorial under date of

stronger now than it was two

Right now it is said to be about
