WT HERE are a good many things Tuesday's » elections do not mean. One is this: The results are not a mandate for a special ses- sion to put through the Ship Subsidy grab. Search as he may the President will be unable to find even a trace of sua g mandate. The coun- try is sick and tired of the present Congress, its acts and its failures to act. The country would be delighted to be spared the regular short session. ~ Other short sessions with a heavy proportion of “lame ducks” have been aptly described as “don't give a damn” sessions. The regular session which impends can do all the injury the country can Stand without an extra two weeks in which to hang itself. “Any Congress of lame ducks gives a President Ppportunity to barter patronage for pet measures. yt if President Harding makes any effort to ie. through the Ship Subsidy he will be flying full in the face of popular sentiment and he and fiis party will have to accept the entire odium of a Ship Subsidy grab. © One reason alone would warrant a special ses- sion: If President Harding were to accept the decision registered at the polls and use his “lame ducks” to repeal the Fordney-McCumber tariff, he would be amply justified in calling a special ses- sion. He might even regain considerable of the Ground lost by enagtment of this infamous, inde- fensible and now repudiated gouge. ‘ Al Smith says he is thinking of nothing but the big job ahead of him in the State of New York. That doesn't make him any less a future hope . of the Democratic Party thinking nationally “PROHIBITION ALSO REBUKED. wy AS there a popular verdict on present Prohi- bition law in Tuesday's amazing political upset? + There was, and no uncertain verdict either. It Was writ large in the election returns of at least five States. In New York the frank wine-and-beer stand of the Democratic Party and its candidate played no small part in the Smith landslide. _In New Jersey, where the wet-or-dry issue was Paramount, Gov. Edwards scored_an outstanding it victory that exceeded all hopes. Mlinois’s referendum on the restoration of beer light wines yielded a wet majority estimated at upward of 500,000. Chicago voted three-to- one wet, “Massachusetts voters defeated a proposal to make the State enforcement law “harmonize” yet more drastically with the Volstead lay California refused to put a Prohibition enforce- ment measure on its statute books, “Wet sentiment in Ohio proved strong enough to put up a stiff fight for the beer referendum in that State, though the issue was not clean cut Fhe wets expect to increase the number of wet Representatives in the next Congress by at Teast thirty. The State New York will have only twelve dry Congressmen, Wiscon- sin’s representation will be wet 7 to 4. Volstead himself was beaten and, if the seniority rule is followed, his successor as Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee will be Representative George S. Graham of Pennsylvania, one of the most outspoken wets in Congress. Prohibitionists will find cold comfort in Tues- day's results. The great rebuke was administered not only to Normalcy but also to present Prohibi- tion law, Slowly the country is regaining its balance. It finds tyranny and hypocrisy getting on its nerves of In Massachusetts they are saying: Now, why didn't I with only 5,000 others turn out and put Henry Cabot Lodge where he belony: THE SUPER-STADIUM. TUDENT and alumni reservations for the Yale-Harvard football classic are so enor- Mous that quotas of tickets have had to be cut and cut again. The general public is, of course, _ completely barred and the return of advanced re- mittances is a formidable task ‘Demands for admission to the Army-Navy other important football matches, the World Series ball games, the big prize-fights, and @@ occasional spectacle of one kind or another, are pi the country, The logical location would be, of course, in or near New York. Time was when a crowd of 10,000 or so paid admissions was big. Now.crowds of 50,000 to 80,000 assemble and thousands are turned away. An arena immense enough to seat any crowd that might gather suggests interesting questions: How large would it be? How large could it be?, Could it be built large enough to meet the de- mand? It is conceivable that a combination of college alumni, the City of New York, a few wealthy sport promoters, possibly the State and the Nation might unite in financing such a project. But would even that make it possible? How big would the structure need to be? Would there be a limit to the circumference? Would there be a point at which the human eye at the outer edge would cease to get enough view to warrant the use of a seat? From just how great a distance could spectators follow a football scrimmage? How many spectators could be seated within that range? EXIT SIGNS FOR NEWBERRY. RUMAN NEWBERRY might as well pack his grip and go from the Senate while the going is good. Right through the whole Newberry controversy the parallel to the Lorimer case a decade earlier is well-nigh perfect. Lorimer was expelled after the country had had an opportunity to express its opinion on the first exoneration. Newberry is going soon. Last January The Evening World commented on the high poli mortality in the ranks of Lorimer defenders. A similar phenomenon is_now evident. Vir- tually every new Senator is rabidly opposed to Lorimerism in its Newberry variation. Howell, Brookhart, and the other Western radicals who may pull through are, if anything, more vigor- ously opposed to Newberry than the Eastern Democrats who triumphed It was a narrow squeak for Newberry last Jan- uary. It will be a squeal from him if the ques- tion comes to a vote again, Townsend, Calder and Kellogg, to mention no more, are sign-boards displaying the exit sign if Newberry can read them aright. ‘There are mandates and reprimandates THE STEINMETZ VOTE. NE highly satisfactory incident of the elec- O tion was the vote polled by Dr. Steinmetz for the office of State I:ngineer. Incomplete figures indicate that this eminent scientist running with the Socialist-armer-Labor group ran about 200,000 votes ahead of his party in the State. Dr. Steinmetz had nothing to recommend him except superior equipment for the job. If either the Democratic or the Republican candidate had been equally qualified, Dr Steinmetz would probably have polled the conventional Socialist courtesy vote It is encouraging to note that 200.000) voters showed independence and discrimination. — The adyantage of a vote for Steinmeté was in the suggestion ‘to politicians and slate-makers that fitness for the job will gain votes. \ vote for Steinmetz was a candidates in future elections Cable advices from Kobe report the death tn that elty Tuesday night of Robert Young, editor and proprietor of tae Japan Chronicle, which he had conducted as a daily and weekly pub- lication for more than thirty ye Mr. Young was English born ablest journalists of the day. were unsparing critics of Japan, but his writing was #0 vigorous and bis views so correct toat he came to be regarded as au authority a dispute on affairs local and internation:!

BODE'S LAW,.—Johann Bode, who began studying astronomy with a@ hand-made telescope placed in a gar- ret window, discovered that the dis- tances of the planets from the central sun Increase in a regular ratio, be- ginning with Mercury, the youngest planet, Prior to that time all the planets were supposed to havo been created simultaneously with the earth and sun, Bode was derided, with good rea- son it seemed, for a time, because no planet appeared between Mars and Jupiter, where according to the law, a planet should exist. In the Heht of the law, however, the great telescopes of the world were turned upon thkt vacant orbit, and over 300 Httle planets, one being 600 miles in (iameter, were discovered and named.

This law holds that {f the elements of the earth be arranged in the order of thelr atomic weight elements will be found at regular intervals hav~ ing similar properties and relations. When all the known elements were arranged in the order called for by th law, however, several gaps were disclosed where elements should be found, yet no such elements had ever been discovered, Within a few years thereafter, the elements gallium, scandium and geranium were found, closing the gaps and vindicating the w BIOGENETIC LAW. — In order to account for tho evolution of many- celled animals from single-celled an- cestors, Ernst Haeckel had to assume the former existence of a gastrula shaped stem form, which had never been observed.
