HOT FIGHT IN CLASS ELECTIONSFELLOWSHIP GROUPS AfEETfOLITICAL FACTIONS SEETHINGTHIS ELECTION BUSINESSBy Charles H. GoodThe campus is wrapped in thethroes of a hectic election. Everyconceivable political device everknown to man and the undergradu¬ate has been employed withoutrhyme, reason, or restriction. Thecampus politicians meet in littlegroups of twos and threes to bartervotes, to plan slates, to cross anddouble-cross each other. Trickery isthe order of the day, and suspicionthe popular sentiment. Meanwhilethe most virulent sort of a whisper¬ing campaign goes merrily on.Suddenly there appeared lastThursday what some termed a newpolitical weapon for putting the bestmen into “the highest positions ofhonor and trust within the gift ofthis institution.’’ The old hue andcry of “dirty politics” was raised—and then settled. I.ike most hastymen the accusers now enjoy theperogative of repenting their rashcharges at leisure.In a sense one can excu.se thesemen for their suspicious conclusions.In the midst of all the unsavorypolitical conditions sucli an unfor¬tunate occurence as the misplacingof two election petitions might havebeen considered a little “queer.” Butthe integrity of those ofTirials whowere responsible could not be doubt¬ed. for they are all honorable men.How acute their suffering must havebeen at the thought of the comprom¬ising position in which their honorhad been placed one can imagine.But now all of us understand ofcourse, that it was an accident . . .by all means an accident . . . reallytoo bad ... it couldn’t be helped... an unfortunate accident . . .a tough break.« >*> *The very fact tha^ it was an acci¬dent and a very unfortunate acci¬dent was deeply impressed upon melast Thursday night in the offices ofriarke-McElroy and Co., printers,where The Daily Maroon is published.During the course of the evening noless than five of the biggest of allbig men on campus dropped by theprinter’s to express their collectiveand individual regrets for the unfor¬tunate loss. It was really quitetouching to see the hurt expressionin the eyes of the hungry . . . butquite evidently no longer thirsty . . .five as they gazed with abject sor¬row at the blank space in the leadcolumns under the captain “SeniorClass President.” Only one name ap¬peared there. The other had been lost.Their extreme concern was exem¬plified in the fact that they them¬selves brought the list of names andpetitions down to the printer’s afterspending several hours in a fruitlesssearch for the missing petitions . . .a search which I understood had tak¬en them over a large part of our faircity and had put them to no end oftrouble. ♦sw?I tell you the scent was heartrend¬ing. There stood the heroic fivebowed in grief. Every pha.se ofcampus activity was represented—the dramatics, busine.ss, sport, andlegislative world. And withal chereseemed to be a common bond betw eenthem—a mysterious and inexplicabletie of understanding as if they w-eremembers of a common organizationwith a common end. Together theywept as one.* * *But then Friday morning all wassunlight and roses again.

The significant ques¬tion was “Shall we keep the nurseryw'et or dry?”Hoover received the majority ofvotes cast in the straw ballot takenafter the speeches.Profe.ssor .Arthur Holt, in dealingwith “Is There a Farm Question?”stated that the farmer’s main prob¬lem was that of increasing his bar¬gaining power. He stated that thefarmer is out to equalize his bargain¬ing power by diversifying his crops,by increasing his power to wait forgood markets through use of creditand storage facilities, by reducingdi.stance between himself and con¬sumer, by increasing his knowledgeof planting, and finally by takinecare of his own surplus, a questionwith which the McNary-Haugen billdeals.Regarding the i)rohibition issue.Professor T. V. Smith stated thatthree issues were significant; therights of the state regarding the en¬forcement of the jiresent law. thekind of prohibition law that shouldbe made, and the ethical issue.

A short article byJane Addams, founder of Hull Houseon “The Pan-Pacific Conference ofWomen” and one by Mary McDowell,a University Settlement Worker, on“Woman’s Stake in Government” arefeatured. Upper Classes“The class elections promise tobe genuine contests this year, andreports from all camps indicate a hotfight will be waged for all disputedpositions,” said Charles Cutter, chair¬man of the Election Board. “Sev¬eral important changes have beenmade in the voting machinery thisyear and it is expected that they willaffect the results to some extent.Also, there is an extraordinary num¬ber of candidates, which further com¬plicates the situation,”There are several organizationswhich are making hard fights in or¬der to put their nominees across.The non-fraternity group, the frat¬ernity group, and the independentgroup, besides various smaller groupsare waging desperate battles to se¬cure the elections of their candidat s.However, it appears that the organ¬izations which are usually so strongare in a more or less weakened con¬dition, owing to the loss of leadersand also to various internal causes.I This puts the outcome in all classesvery much in doubt, and it appearsI to be anybody’s election.I “There is a very large registrationj in all classes, and this has helpedI weaken the usually strong party or-j ganizations. It is an accepted fact inI poitics that, the larger the regis'.ra-! tion, the larger the unorganized voteand the smaller the percentage of[ votes controlled by an organization,”j Cutter said,I The unusually large registration isi in all probability due to the strength• of the individual candidates. It isI rare in a campaign to see so many; real leaders in each class come forth' and strive for the class offices, and,; w’hatever the outcome, the classesI are almost certainly guaranteeidgood leadership for the coming year.All of the camps are confident ofvictory and await the outcome withgreat impatience.W.

The ghosts of McKinley and Mark liana;walked; poker was the principal amusement of the White House, |cabinet ministers were corrupted, and the country settled into adeep sleep.This sleep has lasted for eight years. The government of thecountry has touched a new low mark, approached only during theGrant regime immediately after the Civil War. Corruption hasbeen common. Two slogans have been produced during the period,“Back to Normalcy”—the work of the late President Harding—and “Give me Economy and then give me more Economy”—theissue with which President Coolidge won the 1924 campaign.These two slogans indicate the level of our political leader¬ship. Now the Republicans, properly scared, have nominatedHoover, a man who was credited with a reputation for intelli¬gent liberalism. But in his speeches since his nomination Mr.Hoover has shown a complete capitulation to the conservative Re¬publican ideal; Prosperity for all, the safeguarding of the home,and as little discussion as possible.Whatever may be A1 Smith’s faults, he possesses an un¬doubted capacity for leadership. This quality has been greatlylacking in our last two Presidents. Smith is a real expert inthe art of government, he is opposed to the eighteenth amend¬ment, and he favors the sort of social legislation which we thinkthe country needs badly.His Catholicism is being discussed as an issue of the cam¬paign. The Maroon feels that the only importance politically ofGovernor Smith’s personal religious preference is the undoubtedfact that it will free him from the dominance of moralistic bigotswho have produced the eighteenth amendment and the numerousenforcement laws. With Smtih in the White House such organ¬izations as the Anti-Saloon League, largely if not altogether ofProtestant membership, will have very little influence. These lob¬bying groups, all inspired with the same fanatice fervor, and alldrawing their strength from the rapidly decaying rural Puritanstrongholds of the Middle West and South, have been able to af¬fect the whole trend and form of recent legislation. This per- jncious force, largely responsible for the enactment and main¬tenance of the eighteenth amendment, can be removed onlythrough the election of Governor Smith. The country has suf¬fered greatly at the hands of obscurantest Protestants. If weenthrone an archbishop in the position these men have held, thebalance may be redressed. The feature of the eve;iing will bea peppy talk by Jimmy Toohig,groundskeeper of Stagg Field. Jimmyis an old character around the Uni¬versity. He refused to disclose hissubject for the meeting but promiseda straight-from-the-shoulder talk tothe young men of the University.With Mundy Peale as master ofceremonies the events of the eveningwill snap by in regular order.

In many rail¬way iirohlems the intere.st of the citizen is para¬mount. Moreover, under the jirescnt organiza¬tion of economics and government, as has beenpointed out before, the public controls railwayservice not only by purchasing it but also by reg¬ulating the conditions under which it shall be ren¬dered and by providing its capital supply. A gen¬eral realization of this threefold relationship be-tw’een the public and the railroads should inspireall citizens to interest them.selves in railway prob¬lems.The college or university graduate, as a bene¬ficiary of educational opportunities and as a lead¬er in citizenship, has the opportunity to direct,interpret and enforce public opinion. Nowhere isconstructive, informed public leadership moreclearly essential than in the railway field.As a test of the interest show’n in this advertis¬ing, an essay contest will be announced shortlyafter the fir.st of the year.
