That allusion and its implications illustrates a peculiar phase of human ure, Ordinary people, average preachers, daily paper and gazine writers, may expound, teacis, em- phasize certain truths or principles, day after day, and year after year, and yery little ention may be paid to such tryths or principles until and unless some person whose per- sonality or position has fired the imagination and aroused the enthusiasm of the people takes up the truth or principle and broadcasts the message. Then, although they have been hearing or reading the same thing for an indefinite period, it gets into the consciousness of the people in such a way as to seem to be entirely novel and the new voice succeeds to a certain extent in conveying his own enthusiasm to his hearers or readers and inspiring a re- spect for and an obseryance of the truth or principle enunci- ated Another illustration of this peculiar trait of human nature is furnished ome of the events of recent weeks. The illus- tration has reference to the decline of religion and morality i the American home during the past quarter of a century more, and the resultant effects of such decline as manifested in the frivolity, immorality and criminality of the young people of the present generation. In this case also ordinary preachers and writers, those who neither seek nor enjoy the limelight, have been trying for months—even years—to arc the public conscience, but they have med like voices crying in the wilderness, gs was-the yoice of John Ahe Baptist in olden times the difference being that whereas “all the land of Judea and they of Jerusalem” went out to hear John and were baptized by him in the Jor- dan, confessing their sins in these days the erying voices have hardly aroused the modern Judeans to sit up and take notice. Now, however, the ery has been taken up by two men whose positions and importance in the business world attract wide at- tention to their words. They are the heads of a great fidelity and guaranty company, and the board of directors of a great oil company. ’ The statements of these men concerning the enormous ywth of crime, and the causes thereof cannot go unnoticed. cordingly long editorials, summarizing their conclusions, ye appeared in the daily press and the yoice of warning re- mains no longer a wilderness cry, but is heard in a majority of the homes of the country at the breakfast and dinner tables of the people. Natrona’s Record Tf there was one delegation in the recent session of the leg. lature that stood uniformly and persistently for economy and the better proposals submitted for consideration, it was the Natrona county delegation. The members went to Cheyenne with splendid purposes in view and held fast to the program. It was never their purpose to clutter the statutes with new laws, for which no demand existed, consequently the members presented but few bills, They had a well-defined idea of re- ducing the cost of government and worked to it. That they did not persuade their felloy members to follow their lead was not through lack of merit, but because the old spirit of e agance and grab could not be shaken in a forty day session. Natrona county registered a united front in favor of the better things submitted, and the voters who sent the members to Cheyenne to represent their interests have no just complaint rh of any action taken example set in solidarity, in under- standing, in conscientious seryice made its impression for fu for loéal good bit for state good and fairn in 1 the how devotion, They allied with no outworn control, common to other interests, present; they that had lation ned no lobbies to further | no proper M aw making branch tate government.

(Copyright, 1925, by The Casper Tribune) _ INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 2.—This new business of the legislative “strike” is destined to become one more pop- ular political expedient unles The fifteen Democratic senators who trooped back to their seats in the statehouse here all were enthusiastic about results of their fling at minority rule, speaking in terms of publicity and all. Naturally, it wasn’t to be expected that legislators from this state ‘of poets and politicians, where children are réputed to be taught arithmetic in terms of vote-gotting, could long lag behind little Rhode Island in the matter of political innovations. But aside from that, these fifteen recruits to the doctrine of force in legisla- tive matters are of one mind with the twenty-one Rhode Island s¢na- tors who ran away to Massachusetts last winter, in the opinion that a “strike” of legislators is an effec- tive new instrument in political dis- putes. i Out of thelr first rather “unorgan- ized walkout” they got #ssurance that there would be no attempt to gerrsmander the Democratic party in Indiana out of the three congress- men it has left. They also got enough notoriety to prompt a stage offer or two and an opportunity ‘to write for publication and for re- muneration “That isn't to mention the slaugh- tering they have earned for any Democratic bills that otherwise might have been treated with len- feney,” the Republicans rejoin. Still, the feeling here is that the Democrats started something by ad- ding thelr weight to the “strike” pol- ily so forcibly brought to public at tention at first by the Rhode Island Republicans who walked out on much the same provocation that prompted the Hoosiers. By their experiment, they have shown the way ground the safe: guards set up by the fathers of the various constitutions to protect ajorities. The leg islative gives an effective club to the party out of power, in law making matters. It opens the way to “tyranny of the minority.” a. variety of political oppression for- merly supposed to belong only to the majority. Indiana, however, has a way to punish striking legislators, even though they skip out of the state. She has a law, which won't be ap- piled {n the present case, permitting the state senate to assess @ $1,000 fine against each momber who inten- tlonally absents himself to break a quorum. Of course, if striking becomes as popular with legislative minorities as the local Democrats think it should, the minority party more than likely will igart to bulld a strike fund to care for any fines and to ald its members financially when they are out of the confines of the state. The possibilities of the strike as a political weapon of real force in thwarting any political yranny” that majorities Show has appesrled to the imagination of Indiana Nemo: crats, now almost completely out of power. “This striking business wasn’t caused by any fear of re-organiza- tion of a congressional district to take away what Ulttle remaining strength the Democrats have,” the Republicans say, “It came from # desire to try to mar the record for efficiency this Republican legisla- ture has made in the way of clean ing up its business in record time. Th 2 way to handle strikers Is to pay Serious Consequences Seen if Practice Followed in Rhode Island Then in Indiana Spreads Over U.S. SCOTT s something is done about it. no attention to them and that has been our policy.” Such is the Republican the maneuver that may ver open the way for minorities gountry over to jwield their power.

The new- comers are KLZ Denver, WFBL Syracuse, N. Y., and WDBH Wor- cester, Mass. Of these 24 broadcasters, all but three, WRC Washington, WJZ New York and WGY Schenectady, will take the ceremony over the long dis- tance telephone lines of the Ameri- can Telephone and Telegraph com- pany. Special wires will link up WRC, WJZ and WGy. Although not as extensive, the inaugural hook-up. will cover the country as completely as that of election eve. Elimination of sey. eral of the eastern stations and in. clusion of several additional broad- casters of the west and middle west may permit even better réception throughout the country. With his coming presentation on a 24¢-station circuit, President Cool- idge further establishes himself as the most popular broadcasting star of the world. The three record tie ups are his—the two previously men- tioned and 22 stations on October 23 when the president addressed* the Jnited States Chamber of Commerce. Other outstanding events {n simul. taneous broadcasting have been the broadcasting of (he Demo: ie con- vention proceedings when 17 stations were linked fn, the Kepubiican na- tlonal convention with 34 stations, and the Victor presentation of Thursday night which was heard through stations in 14 cities, The announcers for the first radio version of a presidential {naugura- tion will be Graham McNamee for the A.
