NOT ALL BAD President Coolidge at the annual Associated Press luncheon in New York yesterday went to the heart of the present disturbance in Washington and in other govern- mental affairs throughout the country when he declared that the law of service must again become uppermost. The “trail of vicious and criminal selfishness” which the President said £ was left by the war invaded not only the councils of govern- mental bodies but entered generally into the life of the coun- > try. Exacting and honest service must be demanded by the government and must be given, but the revelations of the = “-trvestigations in Washington is not sufficient to brand all men traitors to the well-being of their government. The President said: “From all of this sordidness the affairs of gov- ernment, of course, suffered. In some of it a few public officers were guilty participants. But the wonder is not that this was so much or so many, : rather that it'has been so little and so few. The encouraging thing at present is the evidence of a well- nigh complete return to normal methods of 2 5 action and a sane public opinion. The gravity of 4 guilt of this kind is fully reabized and publicly rep- ‘ rehended., There is an exceedingly healthy disposi- tion to uproot it altogether, and administer punish- ment wherever competent evidence of guilt can be produced. That I am doing and propose to con- \ tinue.” 4 i The calm and exacting traits of mind displayed by the % Président all during the course of the investigations; his record in the past in executive capacity, his appointments and his well known personal integrity ought to bring a feel- ing of safety and security to the people of the country, who may be glad that in this situation there is at the helm such aman as Coolidge. WOOING BECOMES SCIENTIFIC Tho romantic Mexican lover, serenading his sweetheart with song and the twanging of a guitar, has changed his system and is using the telephone for love-making. So writes Stella Burke May in “Men, Maidens and Mantillas.” In the old days, when the guitar wooer appeared in the courtyard and wailed ‘ith his eyes on the second-floor bal- cony near the family living-room, Pa and Ma usually were able to keep tab on the conversation. Now the lover whispers his sweet »o'hings over the phone, either from a distance or by using an extension phone lowered to him from the balcony. So passes another form of romance. The passing, how- ever, is not without its compensating features. Most of the love-sick serenaders played the guitar rather badly, and their voices were full of static. ine ft E Mechanical progress is striking death blows at romance of all kinds. The polar explorer, formerly isolated in the Far, North blizzards and his fate unknown, now has radio connection with a broadcasting station in Chicago. The galloping pony: express rider, armed to the teeth against desperadoes, has been displaced by a safe in a steel railroad car. The lover used to bring flowers to his sweetheart from the woods or his mother’s old-fashioned garden. Now he gets them from a florist, maybe haggles over the price, order- ing by phone, a boy delivering. Time was when a woocer, to win his lady - fair, was ex- see in the world as there ever was. Invention has changed the stage settings, to be sure. But sehtiment is as strong as ever, and the thrill is mainly in sentiment — in the imag- ination. The girl clerk in the 10-cent store, dreaming all day about a date with her gentleman friend for a movie, probably has as big a thrill as the ancient heroine in the boresome atmos- phere of a castle waiting for her moonlight serenader, ‘As long as' science is unable to eliminate moonlight, love romance will survive.

Mr. Hadley finds | that rule nd technicalities, justi- fied in sterner times to prot the innocent, have been turned into} means of easy escape for the | guilty. ‘An example of this is the pre- | sumption of innocence until guilt has been proved.

On que: tions of procedure alone, it seems, ;there are more reversals in Amer- ican courts than for all causes in the courts of England. Likewise the prohibition placed upon judges to comment or advise a jury on facts in distinctly an American in- stitution, and there is much to show that it advantages criminals by unduly limiting the power of judges. The inevitable conclusion is that ancient safeguards which have become modern abuses should be weeded out inbehalf of speedier and more certain justice.—Minneapolis | |Journal.
