Reverberatio TWO NEW CABINET OFFICERS. Few have as large claims to the title Doctor as | the faction: (New York Times.) two widely distant Watch-Towers of The es the news that social and political divi- ions over Alfred E. Smith last November are by no means mended. In Nebraska the Anti-Saloon League and certain preachers continue to tebuke Senator Norris for his political and (they consider) religious af . and the most prominent Democratic woman in the State was not confirmed as a member of the State Board of Charities and Corrections because she had led the fight for Smith and bears the name of an. In Virginia, while overtures to the nnti-SmiLh’ bolters have been made, Bishop Cannon is urging his followers to stand against the State and national leadership of 1928. Since this obviously refers to Senator Glass, among others, it can be seen that in Virginia are in no melting mood. This very outcome was foreseen and feared by From Times coi those of Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, President of Le- land Stanford Ur ty, Mr. Hoove! alma mater, selected by the Preside ect for Secretary of the Interior. He is a Doctor of Medicine, a Doctor of Science and a Doctor of Laws—the later by the grace of \mur.\i universities. He coliected his many | earned college degrees through student work at| Leland «un.md Cooper Medical College, Frankfort- | on-the- in, University of Munich, Univesrity of California and London University. All told he spent about a dozen years in colleges. He became a pro-| fessor in the Cooper Medical College after his work at London Unive i1 then joined the medical | school at Leland Stanford. He has been with the | latter institution for twenty years, for the last thir-| teen of which as President. He has been- classified as an independent in politics. He supported Presi- | dent Wilson and other Democratic leaders, but was for Hoover last year. Like Mr. Hoover, Dr. Wilbur was borr Towa, but he came to California in' early youth. He is 54 years of age In cting Walter F. own of Ohio for Post- master: neral, Mr. Hoover followed the many pre- | cedents of placing a politician in this position. Mr. Brown has been one of the most powerful Republican | body | States | the many. How long the evil effects of the tactics em- ployed during the campaign, particularly in the South and West, will las§ cannot now be said. Mr. Hoover undoubtedly is sincere in his expressed wish Ithat all such differnces be forgotten, and that every- should get togteher to pull for the United of America. But he will probably find this {shadow upon every application for office in many States in the Union. Monument Proposed to Heroine. (Seward Gateway.) The suggestion that a monument be placed over last resting place of Ann Woods, Kanakanak Orphanage girl who lost her life in December from burns received when she carried out of the building a flaming lamp and thereby undoubtedly saving the lives of many of the little ones asleep on an upper fioor, is a most worthy suggestion and fol- lowing out the wish of Westward residents the Gate- way is going to make a real effort that their wish may come true. leaders in Ohio since his selection as Chairman of the Republican State Committee in 1906. He held; hat position until he bolted to the Bull Moose in 1912-13. He was back in line hg and | helped to put Harding over in 1920. He was one of | the leading leaders, if not actually the real leading leader, in the Hoover Ohio campaign last year. He was born in Ohio’. shty years ‘ggo, ahd is rated as an able lawyer and 'a very stromz and up-right man. He has been an Assistant Secretary of Com- merce since November 2, 1927. soon, TRADE AT HOME. The Chamber of Commerce started a good werk when it set itself about tha task of encouraging the “buy at home" principle. Its suggestions for the mitigation of the mail order evil are all worthy of earnest tryouts. There is no one thing that will do more for progress in thiS§ community than bringing about a maximum of trading at home— with the home merchants and home producers. A large part of the money spend at home stays here and continues to work for the community. And trading at home encourages the merchants to carry larger and better stocks. It increases the volume of their sales so that it might be possible for them to give better service and sell on closer margins. This is a matter that ought not to be left to the Chambgr of Commerce alone. It is a question that interests every person who lives in the City and has an interest in it—even if the interest is no more than a job. If everybody would trade at home there would be more and better jobs which means greater opportunity for everyone. If everyone would take this matter seriously and solve it for himself by doing his trading here the problem would quickly disappear, and the reaction for. the town's good would be immediate and effective. MAKING JUDICIAL PROCEDURE MORE EFFICIENT. State Senator Baumes of New York, head of the Baumes Commission, appointed to suggest amendments for the simplification and making more efficient the State criminal courts, has introduced bills at Albany giving defendants in criminal cases, other than those involving the death penalty, the right to waive jury trials and removing the inhibition against Prosecut- ing Attorneys from commenting upon the failure of defendants to také the witness ,stand. Senator Baumes, when presenting his bills, said that under laws permitting defendants to waive their right to Jjuries 80 per cent. of the criminal cases in Maryland and 70 per cent. of those in Connecticut are tried without juries, expediting court procedure and re- ducing co: ely. The leading New York news- ; both measures. has also approved a suggestion toosevelt that the State should select and of Gov. train a corps of detectives to aid local governments that might ask for and procuring courts. JUNEAU WELCOMES LE( l\l ATORS. Juneau whole-heartedly and disinterestedly wel- comes the Senators and Representatives who are coming to the City to attend the ninth biennial session of the Territorial Legislature. They will be her guests for the next two months and Juneau it in running down criminals the evidence in cases in the local wants them to feel at home and enjoy themselves| while they are working for the people of the Ter- ritory. ¢ Juneau welcomes the Legislators, not only because they are members of the Legislature but because | they are leading citizens of widely separhted com- munities. Their coming gives those wWho come in| contact with them an opportunity to get the view-j . . | The proposal of seeking a Carnegie Medal—a ‘po»thumous award—is also a creditable suggestion and we sincerely trust this also may be obtained. No honor for this native girl seems to be too great; to |us, we will never forget the name of Ann Woods, | the heroine of the Kanakanak Orphanage who gave up“her own fine life that the babies upstairs might live. Lejeune—Neville. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) In nominating Major General Wendell C. Neville to succeed Major General John A. Lejeune as Com- mander of the Marine Corps, President Coolidge in- vites wide popular commendation. Like his predeces- sor, General Neville greatly distinguished himself in the late war, winning new prestige and glory for the Government’s most distinctive fighting force unit. General Neville stands high in the popular re- gard. Not only is he remembered for notable gal- lant services in the fiercest fighting of the late war, but as well for distinguished heroic service in Cuba {during the Spanish-American conflict, and during the investment and occupation of Vera Cruz. The Corps and the Nation are honored by this nomina- tion. John A. Lejeune, well known in this city, also added much to the luster of Marine Corps history. No two Commanders of the Corps have héld it to a | higher standard of efficiency anti achievement than Lejeune and Nevillee The American Legion par- ticularly is gratified over the selection of the latter by President Coolidge. His selection means that the great corps which first has felt the brunt of every war in the Nation's history since the organization of this brilliant unit in the national defense, under the command of General Neville will be ready not only to guard the peace-time interests of the Re- public, but to meet any conceivable emergency of war well prepared and inspired to maintain the glor- fous traditions of the Corps.
