Daugherty also says justice will be one that it will be a winning issue. Smith occupied an office on the erty in the department of justice building.

Among the ideals that we have held dear and which were embalmed in our fundamental law is that of free speech and a free press. None is bigger with impor ance. None other promises so much in this land of free- dom. Over in Rhode Island, that little piece of which tolerance permitted to become a state, the presid- ing officer of the senate has denied the right of a Provi- dence newspaper to have a representative—a reporter— at the sessions of that body. Displeased with the attitude of the paper in question, which happens to be of opposing political faith, this pre- siding officer assumes a power not given him by law or right. As best he can, under the circumstances, he em- ploys that power in an attempt to suppress free speech and to neutralize the freedom of the press. He is con- trolled by his ire rather than by the best and purest ideal, written into law, that we know Perhaps Mr. Coolidge had this case, or others similar, in his mind, when he spoke of the danger of them. Per- haps he did not. We do not profess to know what or which prompted his utterance. We only know that a gross and shameful attack is, at this moment, being made on our best ideals in the very section of the country whence Mr. Coolidge gets his vaunted conscience. The Need for Money ARY, the steel king, is back from a three months’ trip thru South America. He predicts a tremendous fu- ture for the Southern continent, but says its growth will be slow because it is handicapped by lack of capital to develop natural resources. This is aniversal law, the necessity for working capital. And it applies as rigidly to the individual. Young men, are you saving dollars that later will work for you just as you now work for them? Atlantic mud Wind Bags Passe LD documents are found, dealing with the famous banquet given to Charles Dickens by newspapermen. That was in 1868, and Delmonico charged $15 a plate, a fabulous price for those days. The records show that Dickens talked himself hoarse and that 14 long speeches were delivered by editors. Their oratory resembled their editorials. Brevity is the rule today. More than ever before, people recognize that time is money—or imagine it is. We may have all eternity ahead of us, but deliver us from 15 long speeches at one banquet. People formerly could stand it, liquor being available. Somewhat Satisfactory HE outcome of the Thaw case seems to be all right. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw doesn’t want Harry let loose to dissipate the Thaw millions, lest her boy will not get them, and they would, very likely, ruin the boy. Harry is declared to be sane, but acted crazy enough in the court- room to indicate that he will dissipate the estate all right, and it isn’t a bad thing for the public to have million- aires spread their millions around a bit.
