SAYS CHILDREN'S DIET AIDS HEIGHT AND WEIGHT? Variation in Food and General Health Conditions Factors Cited by Children’s Bureau. Variation in diet and good general health conditions tend to ralse the average weights and heights of chil- dren. That is the conclusion reached by the children’s bureau of the labor department as 2 result of a survey made among children in Porto Rico, in the course of which 7.632 school children were weighed and measured and their weights compared with averages found in a study of Eoston school ildren. The Porto Rico boys averaged an inch less in height and the Porto Rico girls from one- alf to one inch less in height than the American boys and girls of the same ages. It was found that the children of districts where a higher standard of living conditions prevalled were taller and heavier than the averag: where llving standards werc low, the opposite was true, ~— 1 WALTON FILES BRIEF | WITH SUPREME COURT| Seeks Review of Impeachment.

YOU'D HAVE FELT 1P UP AN HOUR RGO DEMOCRATS HOPEFUL AS TAX CUT ADVANTAGE SLIPS FROM G. O. P.;ADVANCE STEP TAKEN Garner Program Believed Appeal Than Mellon Plan—Enact- ment Is Forecast. BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WILE, | Democratic national leaders are &s-| sembled at Washington in an atmos- | phere of militant hope. They be- | {lieve the tide has turned and is sweep- | {ing their party toward victory. They | deciare that the Coolidge forces have et their Marne® on the taxation| issue. Two weeks ago democrats | ! feared thut the Mellon program, with | 1its aneous and country-wide | popularity, had pretty well smashed | 11 prospects of a democratic triumph | {in 1924. Today the same leaders are |convinced they have outflanked the| adminictration, wrecked its tax plan | by presenting what they claim is a | better one, and converted into deadly {ammunition against the republicans ithe very issue on which the G. O. P. |had seened to be invincible. Tt is in that spirit of optimism that the dem- | ocratic national committeg is meet- ing, ao outline the 1024 presidential lcampaign. For the moment, rejolc- | {ings over the general situyation tran- scend in intercst the question of can- didates. Eventually the competition for the presidential nomination will| correspondingly wax in intensity. | Democratic scouts bring in reports that the White House is in a state of alarm over the suddenly trans- formed taxation outlook. The Gar- ner program with its undisgulged bid | for popularity through schedules radi- lly more liberal to small income- taxpayers rougher _on surtax pavers than Secretary Meilon pro- posed, has plainly upset the admin- istration’s calculations. See Coolidge in Trap. ! There are now republican leaders who ses salvation only in an immedi- tc alltance between administration supporters and conscrvative demo crats. Conceiving distinct political advantage in the situation, democratic managers are in little modd thus to rescue the republicans. The demo- crats’ expressed purpose is rather to cnforce the passage of their own— the Garner—tax program, with the aid of western republican progressive and {nsurgent votes, and “dare Cool- idge to veto it.” They see the Pres- ident doomed {¢ he does, and doomed if he doesn't. If he vetoes he vetoes a sweeping tax-reduction bill, delib- erately conceived In the interest of the masscs. If he does not veto, he accepts a democratic measure, de- prives his own party of any credit for the boon, and hands the demo- crats the presidency in 1924 on a golden platter. These at any rate are the rose-tinted ckles bencath which the democratic natlonal com- mittee has come together. It 13 because the democrate thus niff victory and glory in the air that the contest for places on their na- tional ticket opens amid unwonted rivalry. Washington is thick with candidates in the flesh, candidates by pfoxy, candidates by manager and merely would-be candidates. Senator Underwood s on the spot. Mr. Mc- Adoo 1s represented by Danfel C. Roper and a regiment of other able seamen. Senator Ralston is here. Edwin T. Meredith of Iowa is.among the visiting firomen. Senator Carter Glass is within call on Capitol Hill John W. Davis of West Virginia has an eleoquent deleggtion of boosters ready to sound his praises. Willlam Jennings _ Bryan “Brother Charley,” has come to keep the family on the map. Judge Thomp- son of Illinols, the democratic boy wonder _of the west. will be heard from. Homer Cummings of Connec- ticut, former national chairman, a dark horse full of possibilities, prominently in the foreground. George White, playing Pythias to James M. Cox's Damon, has arrived. Senator Robinson of Arkansas, democratic leader in the Senate, rivets the atten- tion of many partisans when the talk is of available compromise timber. Gov. “Al” Smith's cohorts are numer- ous and active. observin, sdmittedly big “if,” that be invincible if. only he could be nominated. David F. Houston is being quietly but forcefully adver- tised as the best democrat available 0 carry, the country on the para- mount tax issue. Benator Copeland is in town and in receptive mood. Course Depends Upom G. O. P. Democratic glants of *boss” stature —Ilike George Brennan of Illinois— will tell you that trying to pick the democratic nominee at this hour is like shooting at the moon. They say it's the republicans who'll really de- cide the identity of the democratic candidate. By that they mean that the democrgtic adtion to an enormous extent will be dictated by what the republicans do. If the latter nomi- nate an tern conservative” like Coolidge, the democrats admit they'll have to wage their fight In the west and south -with & prograssive lke MoAdoo. Conversely, if the G._'O. P. conservative like Underwood as their standardbearer. As Calvin Coolidge seoms at this hour a certain victor for the - republican nomination, many dgmocrats now in Washington claim cAdoo's nomination at their conyen- tion becomes sn equally logical cer- tainty. But in the same breath there is admission that McAdoo is as yet nowhere near the two-thirds goal It has known that assigned to V ' to Contain More Popular i i the McAdoo columv, like Texas and Kansas, are going to send either un instructed delegations or delegation attached to favorite sons, like Neff of Texas and Kaneas.
