The fact is that ('h:mm;m of the Republican Congressional Committee, Wiiliam R. Wood, Senator Simeon D. Fess and large sprinkling of the Republican National Committee refuse to accept as final President Coolidge’s reannounce- ment of his not choosing to for President his assurance that has been eliminated that his wishes will be respected and his that the party get to work and select a suc- cessor among the many available men. Well, it must be admitted that the self-elimination could have been put clearer, and ever since 1. Sher- man’s famous declaration people expect those talked of for office to be clear in these matters. Gen, Sherman said he would not accept if nom- inated and would not serve if elected. President Coolidge's declaration is far short of that, though it makes it plain that he not only does not want to run, but that he expects the people to respect his wishes in the prem 3 President Coolidge's statement is not quite so definite as that of former Secretary Hughes who went along half way with Gen. Sherman when he said he would ‘“neither seek nor the nomination.” However, those President Coolidge a lot of the discussing his a run he and advice accept favored drafting nomination have lost exhibited when who have the former assurance If-elimination for PHOTO(.R APHIC TU BLR( ULAR TEST. One of the latest coveries in medical science of a photographic method determining the existence of tuberculosis mankind when the presence of that dread disease is unsuspected and not revealed in the tests by heretofore ing methods, The new test has been evolved by the Prophylactic Institute of Paris, whose head, Dr. Arthur Vernes made it public last month. His work, it w aled, had been greatly facilitated by of fun from Mr. and Mrs. Frank J. Dr. Vernes asserted more than 15,000 have cerified the accuracy of his method, ! is based on a photometric test of blood. Tuber- culosis is frequently active when the lungs are entirely from it, he said. The new system, he explained as an ‘“optical measurement of the blood after certain laboratory processes.” There is a definite scale of measurement with thirty as the danger point. Any blood up to 80 is free of active tuberculosis, that above indicates tubercular activity. m E-ENTER TEAGUE OF NATIONS. and most important dis- is the development of in even exist- large gifts Gould. tests which measu while g Spain, which gned from the League of Nations last summer after it had failed of elec- " tion to a seat in the I anent League, has virtually decided to resume partici- | pation in the League, taking full in fits ' activities.

(St. l’mll Pioneer-Press.) Friends of President Coolidge believe will retive to his old home in Vermont, there to pursue the quict life of a ‘“country gentleman.” That may be his intention, but he is likely to discover | as have so many of his predecessors, that the role of modern Cincinnatus is rarely permitted ex- Presidents of the Unitell State Cincinnatus was called from the plough to save Rome from the hill tribes, The victory won, he retired to resume his life as a country gentle- man. Our own Persidents have not had e in achieving repose. In the last Hayes was the only one to accomplish it. He lived at his old home in Fremont, O. in un- disturbed peace for thirteen years between the end of his term and his death. Harrison turned from the White House to ve practice of law. Cleveland retired to the quietude of Princeton, but was not permitted to remain. He was yanked by call of public duty from Princeton’s quiet shades into the uproar of Broadway in 1905 to mix in insurance finance. There he fretted and fumed ainst an unkind fate until his death, three vears later. Roosvelt retired, but in re- tirement was twice as active as he had been in public life. Taft sought seclusion in the chair of law in Yale, only to resume a life of activity in the Supreme Court President Coolidge may intend to become the country gentleman, but fate and the cur- rent of events are stronger than the human will. Presidents propose but the Nation disposes. Everybody Goes On. (Springfield Republican.) Hoover will go.on being busy and useful as Secretary of Commerce. Gen. Dawes will go on being Vice-Presient, patiently presiding over the Senate and trying not to yawn. Mr. Willis | will go on being a Senator from Ohio and rat- tling the glass in the Senate skylights when he lets his voice out to its full capacity. Mr. Cur- tis will go on being a Senator from Kansas and ading softly about the Senate ¢hamber. Former Gov. Lowden will go on thinking about agricul- tural problems—and all, even Mr. Hoover, will go on doing some thinking about delegates, but chiefly devoting themselves to something else. And the American people will go on, it is to be hoped, and decide without being too much influenced by political manipulation, which of these, or some one else, would make the best | President. he much s fifty ye Mr | | Even if the Presidential |to seek the man this year, know that they won't have much finding him.— (Indianapolis News.) nominations have it 18 reussuring to trouble in Water main bursting Jyn Wall Street offers Norris and La Follettg an dpening for Senatorial investigation of watered securilies,— (I'hiladelphia Bulletin.)
