Noth- ing survives except religion—the belief in God and a hereafter. The churches have “off periods” in attendance as the religious force temporarily burn”. low in the public. But arehitects announce that 200 million dollars will be spent this year in America on new church buildings. That's gcod news, mightily so, even tho it’s only a fraction of what will be spent on movie theaters. It is said that President Cal inherited his present troubles, and, it can be added, he is paying his inheritance tax with some protest. What Inspiration Really Is HE terrible thriller, “Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,” was written by Stevenson in six da This is disclosed in Lloyd Osbourne’s book about Steven- son, Writing this amazing novel in six days, Stevenson had to churn out 10,000 words a day. He wrote it sit- ting up in bed. That was Mark Twain's system. Like all writers, Stevenson unquestionably had weeks when he couldn’t write an interesting word. Naturally, people used to talk about inspiration in writing. Now we know that “inspiration” is largely a physical condition —perfect co-ordination of the endocrine glands, with blood pressure high, pulse fast and the thyroid burning up the kody like a furnace with the draft open. Don't be too sure. An “0. K.” from Washington may now mean “oil kept.” If you wire your wife at Palm Beach, don’t wind up with “love and kisses.” It might be turned over to investigators as a message to MeLean or Fall. He’s a Rarity 'T is almost enough to start a Walsh-for-President boom. Somebody started a rumor to the effect that Sena- tor Walsh had had dealings with the oil looters. Promptly, Senator Walsh puts before his investigating committee his and Doheny’s telegrams and letters of last year. In these communications, Walsh said, in effect: “T see in business association with you a chance to make much money, but I will not engage in any business likely to be dependent in any appreciable degree on government favor.” Moreover, the communications show that while the Walsh and Doheny families were friends, socially, it made no difference whatever to Walsh in his fierce investigation of Doheny. The democratic convention might go a long way be- fore finding a nominee with a better standing for con- scientiousness and courage in discharge of duty as a ser- vant of the government. A public officer who is willing to sacrifice both himself and his friends, in behalf of duty, is a rare, rare bird. French surgeons have “pricked” each other in a duel with swords, Gosh! how our appendicitis adhesions yearn to be present on an oceasion when surgeons draw knives on each other, Democracy Without Polish ‘D now democracy has taken to knocking off crowns with extreme contumely, not to say coarseness, Does the grand national assembly of Turkey send an orderly diplomatic notice to the caliph that he is a has- been and a nominee for exile? Not so. It sends a real fierce Teapot investigating committee to the palace. The committee says: “Caliph, mount your throne!” Caliph does. Then, says the committee: “Caliph, come down off your throne! There’s a train headed toward Switzerland awaiting you.” Caliph performs. He accepts the dem- onstration as a hint, packs his satchel and, with only two wives, takes the first train for Switzerland, leaving a harem of some 500 selected females on Constantinople’s hands, in revenge. Really, it is coarse, rough stuff and not at all like a refined, smiling dictator walking in, with “King, I’m It! and a king replying, “You seem to be. Kind, sir, what's my allowance?” However, the Turks are new hands at democracy and, vaturally, lack some of the polish and that grasp of THURSDAY, MARCH 12 Vhen No. 4 Came In 4 ‘Kew vou | MERCANTILE | vee Coen \ Omang \ Again WED 10an ME TWE 100,000.00 if WD TURN =o era. wat now And Jail for Anybody in Oil Scandal? cation at We able you to pleee together hy-dny mews stories on the rw cations of the pr Te seem aad explains what the probers are trying to de BY CHARLES P.

HE gators have taken most of a week going thru th Washin, mn telegrams sent to E. B, McLean, millionaire newspaper man, at Palm Beach last. winter, Why so much interest in Mo- Lean’s telegrams? Well, when the started, ex-Secretary terior Fall, naturally objecting to have it known that he'd bor- rowed $100,000 from Doheny Su before handing him Elk Hills, got McLean to pretend HE'D made the loan, which had to be ounted for somehow, because ! had used the money to buy a ranch and questions were being asked. When the deceit leaked McLean was afraid it would be made very unpleasant for him on the witness stand before the in vestigators. So he did his best not to be called, Rafts of mes sages were sent to him, telling him what the prospects were. ‘The investigators reckon that a man who was willing to try to help Fall out, as McLes tried, must know a lot about the whole case. They're trying to learn from his telegrams just what he DID know. They want to know, too. S ATOR HEFLIN got an idea t two of MeLs a tele. grams were from President Cool- idge. Investigation proved that he was right. The president ex. plained, however, that one of them was about the appointment of a commissioner of the District of Columbia; the other thanked McLean for gomplimenting a apeech he had made, A big splurge has been made because they were from the president, but they don't appear to have much to do with oil. OME of the oll investigators don’t get along very well to- gether. Senators Lenroot and Smoot were accused of trying to hush the inquiry up, and Lenroot finally quit, claiming $M health forced him out.
