Those on the ex- treme ‘right’ contend constantly that we are .on the verge of war with Japan because of the problem, with Mexico because of American Dbusiness interests, with France because of old war debts, “On the contrary, the members on the extreme ‘left’ are conscientious objectors to war no matter what its provocation may be.

FAILURE TO CLEAR " STREETS OF SNOW EVOKES CRITICISM (Continued from First Page.) sons were pointing to the fact that one of the worst places in Washing- ton on account of-faflure or Inability to remove snow, is directly in front of the Capitol building, and the front steps of the Capitol themselves, which comes directly under the jurisdiction of the Capitol building and grounds office. The American Automobile Assocla- tion, which seldom misses a chance to be heard where automoblle traffic is being discussed, issued a formal statement last night calling atten- tion to the Intangible loss to the city of “hundreds of thousand of dollars as a result of the slowing down of business, and declared that Washing- ton should have been prepared in ad- vance with the necessary equipment to cope with the emergency. The A. A. A. suggested three factors which should be dealt with in Washingtorf in the light of experience in remov- ing snow gained in other cities These factors were given as follows. “First, the placing of snow removal on the same basis as maintenance and repair is placed. This means preparation to meet the storm through the organization of an ade- quate snow force to take care of the city according to a well-developed street and subdivision plan and ready at all times to pitch into the work of snow removal. “Second, instead of walting until the snow has fallen to a depth of several inches, this organized force should start with the beginning of the storm, as is the case in other large cities where snow removal is on a thoroughly organized basis and ready for emergency calls at any time. “Third, the provision for Washing- ton of up-to-date equipment in order that the organization can act speedily and effectively in removing the snow and keeping the thoroughfares open.” Commenting on the situation in Washington as the result of the snowfall, Ernest N. Smith, general manager of the American Automobile Assoclation, sald: “The snow removal problem is les§ acute in Washington than in other cities of the country, and Yet the sit- uation here, at the present time, fur- nishes a compelling argument for placing snow removal on & thorough- Iy organized basis, including person- nel, equipment and adequate funds. It should be regarded as in every respect of equal importance with the maintenance and repair of our streets and highways. This can only be done by organized preparedne: The problem has three distinct phases, First, the commercial im- portance of keeping the arterfes of the city open, goes without saying.

Shaw Holds Office Cannot Be Transferred in Case 'of Death. BY DAVID LAWRENC! Is Calvin Coolldge still Vice Pres- ident or rather acting President? Leslie M. Shaw, former Secretary of the Treasury, has raised this point because he thinks it will have an im- portant bearing on whether Mr. Cool- idge may expect to succeed himself for another presidential term after 1928, The Constitution of the removal or death or tion of the President or “inability discharge the duties of his office, the same shall devolve upon the Vice President and the Congress may by law provide for the case If the re- moval, death, resignation or inabil- ity of both the President and Vice President, and such officer shall act accordingly until the disability be re- moved or a President shall be elect- ed.” in case resigna- says that Holds Election’ Essential. Mr. Shaw declares that under they Constitution, the death of a President | “causes a vacancy in that office that | can be filled only by election.” Others he says, may be charsed “with the responsibility of the office, becoming Acting President, and as in the pres- | ent instance, be de facto President, | but no one can be de jure President except by election, for in America | there is no succession This view would permit Mr. Cool- idge to enjoy a second full term as President counting his service from August, 1923, to March 4 next, as a period in which he is simply “Act- ing President,” but still Vice Presi- dent. So far as the law is concerned there is as much ground for Mr. Shaw's view as any other, though custom and precedent have given the Ameri- can people the impression that when a Vice President succeeds to the duties of the presidency, he actually be- comes President too. He draws the salary and discharges the responsi- bilities of the Chief Executive exact- 1y as If he had been elected | There is no law or constitutional | provision which would prevent a | fro ving three or four terms. Custom and precedent | again have decreed that two terms is the maximum and no one has served more than eight years, though there have been attempts to win for a third time. Mr. Roosevelt served seven years, but announced on the eve of his election fn 1904 that he would not be a candidate for a third term. He construed that to mean & consecugdve term, for Mr.-Taft was his choi® (n 1905. In 1912, however, he sought the presidency again and might have been elected but for tae split in the Republican party.® The { third term issue was not altogether a controlling one, though it no doubt played some part in the voting. ' If Mr. Coolidge Wishes to be a can- | didate in 1928, he will find no legal obstacle in his path, nothing, in iact, except the unwritten law that & Pres- ident does not serve more than eigkt years. On the surface, it would ap- pear that this is an academic quei- tion and somewhat premature for discussion, but the 1928 campaign Is not as remote as it seems. Official Washington thinks a long time ahead on politics. There are a United States Senate in the cabinet who have a chance for nominatlon for the presidency if Mr. Coolidge doesn’t run. The Republican organization leaders do not wait till a persidential year before Retting things under way. Mr. Coolidge, on the other hand, will wield a more powerful club over the heads of mem- bers of Congress and the politicians generally if he is likely to remain the full persons in the and one or two| may think they the Republican | Wouid | addea bra party leader after 1928, Mr. Coolidge himself has given 1it-| tle thought to the matter, feeling that | his immediate duty is to “make good” | on the term for which he has been | elected and that the future will take | care of itself. (Coprright, 1925.) the community suffers. Second, the more efficient the snow removal pro- gram is, the less will be the ultimate cost of upkeep. Failure to remove the snow from the streets of Wash- ington promptly will mean a much larger addition to the repair bill than the average citizen now imagines. The damage done to the streets is in inverse ratio to the cost of an effec- tive organization. Third, the snow hazard adds materially to the acci- dent hazard. “There is no reason why Washing- ton should lag behind other large cities of the country in making ade- quate provision for the removal of snow from the streets.” Commissioner Bell, amplifying his statement last night, pointed out that a subcommlittee of the House is now framing the next District appropria- tion bill. If it is the will of the ma- jority that snow removal should be handled on a big scale. provision can be made now for the next fiscal year, Col. Bell said. The Engineer Commissioner said he realized there were some individual| members of Congress who felt exten- | sive snow removal operations should | be carried on, and that there are res- | fdents of the city who hold the same view. It is_wholly a question, Col. Bell sald, of whether the people want to spend a large sum of money to haul the snow off the streets today, or to confine the work to opening gutters so that it will flow into the sewers tomorrow. If a majority, prefer to spend ths amounts necessary to clean the snow away, the commissioner added, it be- comes a-question of getting the re- quired appropriation from Congress.
