De mn effios, Tremont bide bs Hart Administration Repudiated Miles Poindexter wasn'j the only major casualty of i Tuesday's clection. Gov. Hart and the state administra- tion received a severe chastisement. ie} The poll tax law was one of Gov, Hart's especial pets. ; He urged the legislature to pass it, he signed it, he made es for it. He only crawled for cover when he saw \ t his own party was disgusted with his stand. The Be le went to the polls Tuesday and slaughtered the poll tax law by an overwhelming majority. a All of the referendum measures had the support of E the Hart administration when they passed the legislature. Hart signed them all, and they would be laws today— Jaws that we do not want—if we did not have the refer- endum system in this state. The election referendums, which were intended to strengthen the bosses in control of the state adminis- tration and remove the effectiveness of the direct pri- mary, especially were Hart administration measures. And they were beaten decisively. The proposal to boost the pay of legislators, tho a mighty good bill, was snowed under. It is evident the Voters of this state do not believe the legislators are worth more than $5 a day. The defeat of the 30-10 school plan was the only impor- tant victory for the special interests, outside of a reac- personne! in the legislature, in the entire election. But, unless some relief is granted the poorer school dis- tricts of the state, and the big special interests that put up the cash for the campaign for the 30-10 are made to ‘help foot the school bill, the 30-10 will go before the Voters again at the next election. It took California three elections to put a similar measure over; it may take that in this state, but, sooner or later, it will win. nm in the heavy vote the farmer-labor candidates ved for the state legislature in some sections (not- Pierce county, where seven members were elected), seen the resentment of the voters for the Hart ma- It was not a straight farmer-labor vote that broke ' into the G. 0.

Isolation Gone Mad The United States government has declined to send a tative to the Near Eastern conference to help the problems that so nearly started another world war. Instead, Secretary of State Hughes has dispatched telling the European powers what he wishes done. Mr. Hughes wants: 1. Non-Moslem interests safeguarded. 2.

But this time he has spoken “right out joud in meeting witheut mincing his words and has given Broadway & most startling arraignment of mod. ern christianity. ‘There is no subtie subsidized, fear. fulof-capitalistic-displeasure propa ganda, about Channing Pollock's “The Fool.” It is an uncompromis ing presentment of the betrayal of the teachings of Christ. There was no question of the ef- fect upon Brondway's first night audience. They accepted the bitter arraignment of the capitalistic at- titude toward labor, the betrayal of the docttine of brotherly love by rich professing Christians, with as hearty @n approval aa tho they had been arrayed in factory clothes instead of fine linen and sables. Briefly, “The Fool” is an indignant protest in dramatic form against modern economic wrongs and smug hypoericy. Channing Pollock uses his fine dramatic sense to Its fullest efficiency in contrasting the wealthy pillars of the church reared tn the name of Christ, and the betrayal of the basic principles of Christ's teach- ings. He introduces some dramatic moments and telling “curtains” #0 vivid and daring as to thrill a New York audience into silence. One instance ts when the young rector (“The Fool”) having been turned out of the Church and discard- ed by his fiancee for his so-called socialistic beliefs, stands alone In the dimly Mghted church. A person ap- pears councelling him to continue living as Christ lived. Toward the dim form the rector turns crying “In God's name, who are you?’ The Person, as the curtain descends, re- plied “Tl am a Jew."
