“arbitration PAGE 6 thman u "Went ttn ey Be tee ® When the Shoe Pinches HAT a difference it makes where th« i oe pinches! Only a few short months ago Mr, Coo! idge’s political spellbinders were stumping the nation with the claim that a simple proposition to permit the people to amend their constitution, in the proper pro vided by that instrument, meant revolu-# tion, impiety, panic and other horror We now see President Coolidge denoun ing the operation of the constitution, way to its provisions that the United States Senate shall confirm or reject his non nations. Thus, it is Mr, Coolidge’s toe that and the groaning eard thruout the the shoe now pinch of the regular cohorts is land. The framers of the constitution provided for three governmental branches — the Judicial, the executive and the legislative —but put checks on two of them—the leg islative and the executive. The senate was to pass on the president’s most important nominations, and the president was to hold the power of eto of legislation by congress. In fact, and in effect, there i a potential check upon the judicial branch of government, This potentiality lies with the man whom the president selects fo attorney general, since no judicial decree operates unless executed. Calvin Coolidge Was elected to execute the laws and the constitution certainly denies him the pre- rogative in his selection of tools to do the job. The paramount importance of the attorney generalship is apparent and it has been demonstrated so that even the Hlind could read, under the recent Daugh- erty regime. It is not enough that Presi- dent Coolidge call attention to the chronic regularity with which the nominations of any man for any cabinet portfolio have been confirmed by the senate. The found- ers of the constitution decided that the time might arrive when the job of exe- cuting the will of executive, legislative and judicial branches of government would be offered a bad or dangerous man and they gave the nation a safeguard in requiring the consent of the senate. Mr. Coolidge should not have complained of the con- stitution which was “saved” for him only last November. By Herself ROM the wa she trampled on the Geneva peace protocol it is to be de- duced that Great Britain is heartily not in favor of compulsory arbitration of in- ternational disputes.

Wasteful Savi mg N 1923 the economy wave swept into office two economy governors—Gifford Pinchot, of the Quaker state, and Friend W. Richardson, of “E] Dorado.” The history of two years under Pinchot, of Pennsylvania, and Richardson, of Cali- fornia, illustrates two opposite ways of approaching the problem of cutting down expenses.

We hope no foreign country ever claims New York. A plebis- cite of its inhabitants would certainly take it away from the United States. A Tremendous Test ENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY, J Edison Company of California, and Pacific Gas & Electric Co, are going to try to do something for the whole world —solve the problem of transmission of power in great quantities over long dis- tance: The successful solution means power and light in all the corners of the earth, incalculable progress in industry and civilization. Upon the campus of Stanford univer- sity, at Palo Alto, California, this summer, these great companies are to combine six huge transformer units, each weighing 27 tons, and with combined capacity of 2,100,- 000 volts. It is an attack upon such as the Sahara desert, the Arctic and Antarctic wastes, and the darkest places of the dark- est continents. It is like squeezing the earth and its material affairs into a ball the size of one’s fist, to be examined in all its details. The world has known noth- ing like the solution of such a problem. Land of Gold RDINARY American letters are treated registered in Bulgaria. The reason is Bulgarian bandits. America, as if they believe, is a fabulously rich land, flowing with milk and honey and gold. So, while British, French and other mail is treated in the usual way, American mail travels under escort on the assumption that it is sure to contain money. Q.
