HAS PRESIDENT NEW POLICY? President Ooolidge heretofore has acted as though lie cares not what happens to administration Senators who are up for nomination or elec tion. It lias been charged, and ap parently with some foundation, that the Chief Executive has been willing to let his supporters suffer defeat rather than take a definite stand on matters which have coiAe up as issues in the campaigns waged by these men. He lias adopted a new policy in recent days? In ills Kricson speech he had high praise for Senator Lon root, who is having some difficulties in Minnesota, and these utterances no doubt have made other candidates wonder why lie lias not mentioned them. Senator Lenroot. it must be re membered, fought Senator LaFollette with every weapon at his command. That is the chief reason he is rather uncertain about his own future. The administration! is not any too popu lar in the western States anyway, and with any great amount of LaFol lette opposition Senator Lenroot could easily be defeated. In the lowa battle between Sena tor Cummins and former Senator Rrookhart the President has been con- L tent to do nothing so far as the pub lie can see. He did not act personal ly in the behalf of Senator Pepper, who was defeated in Pennsylvania. The administration took notice of this contest, however, sending Secre tary Mellon there in behalf of the > man who has been one of the stand patters on all questions sponsored by the President and his cabinet. The New York World thinks it only reasonable that President Cool idge heed the demand of Senator Cum mins that a good word be spoken for him. “In itself the demand' is re markable,'' says The World. “Mr. Ooolidge indirectly aided Pepper in Pennsylvania through Mellon —and much good it did,* He can hardly ignore the fight' his friend and spokes man Butler in Massachusetts. If he can speak) of Mr. Lenroot's "promi nent leadership”, his “high character” and his “old Norse Spirit” and give him a White House accolade as “a true American,” then Cummins, an equally faithful regular in the G. O. P. and ten years Lenroot's senior in the Senate, might fairly expect an or atorical pat on the back. “Strangely, or not so strange, we hear little of this talk from Republi cans in lowa itself. They are mid way, geographicaHy, between the crape-hung battlefields of Stanfield, beaten in Oregon, and McKinley, beaten in Illinois, both good Coolidge men. It may be that Mr. Brookhart ia not worrying about a Ooolidge en dorsement for his rival. It may be that a Ooolidge indorsement for any granger State would him little good. The Present Is Vary popular In Wall A Street. On the staple farms of the West, Republicans seem better able to restrain their enthusiasm.” SENATOR BORAH STARTS SOMETHING. All of this referendum talk rela tive to the 18th amendment, is prop aganda put out by candidates for va rious offices in the opinion of Sena tor Borah, who has announced to the world his opposition to it. Politicians who do not want to take a definite stand on prohibition started the referendum talk, Senntor Borah states, and they started it purely to save their own faces. They care nothing about the matter really, and for that reason he is beginning a campaign against any referendum. Some persons see in the IJorah ut terance a veiled announcement of his determination to be a presidential can didate in 1928. Others see ip it a fine opportunity for dry candidates to be chosen in many of the States where the Senator is strong. In making his plans for his campaign Senntor Bornh let it be known that he is out and out a prohibitionist. Senator Borali is one of the most powerful men in the United States. Senate and has a strong following j throughout the nation. His support; to any measure means a strong pull | and much influence for that measure, j Dr. T. T. Marlin, self-imported cru-j sader, announces that no more de bates will be held in the State between him and atheists. Two debates were held in Charlotte and together that attracted less than 50(1 persons. That settled the matter with Dr. Martin and he is qot going to carry out his! debate schedule in the State. North | Carolinians as a general thing know j how to debate their own questions without hearing outsiders who make a I practice and a living of going about | the country giving their support toj moral or supposedly moral questions. | This State is not interested ill the | claims of the atheists and our people are not going to hear persons whose chief aim in life is ridicule of the Bi ble. Dr. Martin did well when lie called off the debate. His most se rions mistake was in ever conducting one. CONCORD TRIBUNE IN A NEW HOME. Greensboro News. Tile people of the Concord Daily Tribune and the Concord Times hove come through a period of tribulation unto the relatively perfect day of re arranged mid enlarged working quar ters for all departments, "as modernl.v equipped and" as spacious as those of any newspapers their size in the state,” the Tribune tells. A new building was put up to the rear of the old Tribune-Times office. This takes the job presses and other equipment and provides storage for paper and of fice supplies. The space of the old building, thus relieved, has been worked over, transforming a rambling structure that was without division or privacy, and adding much in the way of comfort and convenience for the business, news and mechanical de partments. They kept on getting out the paper on the premises while this was being done, through noise of saw and hammer aud smell of paint and alcohol. They now consider that they have j a 1926 model newspaper plant, and j The Tribune's description of the ar rangement bears out the claim.

B7NOPBIB Travelling alone on fke Lo* An veles Limited is Betsy Ann Terwil tiger, a girl of surpassing beauty. At a station in 10-. ca she sees an enthusiastic send-off to a handsome young man. Mutually attracted, both are glad to learn they are to be seatmates. He introduces him self as Hal Chutney, winner of a prize trip to Hollywood for a movie tryout. Betsy reveals that she is also bound for studicland, having toon a similar contest in Massachu setts for a trial with the same film firm. CHAPTER ll—Continued The high hopes ol the girl were well matched by the enthusiasm of the boy, and the hot blood of their long dreams pumped free and fast. “It’s simply great that we both should have won similar contests, and then been thrown together like this," marvelled Betsy. “It sure Is,” said Hal intensely, “and let roc tell you—we’ve both got to make good for the sake of thoge who helped us to win by vot ing for us and—” They were shculdar to shoulder now in kidlike innocence, slumped deep in the seat as they talked with great seriousness of this, that, anft the other thing—mostly • this. At first they swapped gen eralities--descriptions of how they had won their enviable prizes; but in no time at all they arrived at more personal details. Then, in evitably, it came to the point where Hal was assuring Betsy that she was more beautiful by far than the most beautiful professional actress on the sc*een, and that when he got his star contract he would certainly insist that Betsy always should be his leading lady; while Betsy was assuring Hal that the superiority of his he-man For the heart said: “I love you.

J “Last call for diubef ; ” ' The darkey’s prosaic warnrag "broke in and fogged their air Both Hal and Betsy tvet'e in that sublime daze of s'HU’-ypnotism wherein the lifting ;‘oy of love ind ambition are nour ishment for the eag'r soul, and the material appetite? o r the mor tal body are submerge. Neverthe less, Hal thought it yffiNd be the gallant gesture worthy as a com ing screen star for fw to invite her to dinner. The words of the inV'tntion were about to slip off his i'wfgue when be suddenly bethougl*- Vmself of the extremely restr’? i '? , i propor tions of his bankroll. T’erhaps it would be better not th spend his wealth—before he hit? warned it! He consoled himself Pith a men tal promise to protectively take this ravishing creature to dinner every night after he vrAs a rich actor. “The food on these diners ain’t anything to brag about," he depre cated. Flushed for fear she might think him cheap, he hesi tated and looked at her doubt fully for a moment; finally he gathered courage enough from the friendliness of her eyes to ex plain, “So I figured I could spare myeelf the necessity of one train meal If I brought something. It’s —it’s—here in my bag. Won't you please share it with me? Mother put it up herself—l know yen’ll enjoy some, real home food for a change, after travelling so long.” There, It was said now. And, best of all, she didn’t seem to be turning up her nose. As a matter of Act, Betsy had seen into his dilemma —had no ticed him feeling and judging the thickness of his wallet through his pocket. She liked him for his moral courage now—over and above the Interest she had prevl are hard to foresee. This concern on the part of the Overman backers lias been materially increased as the result of dispatches from Washington in which it was stated that tlie'Overman backers there and his colleagues in the Senate who desire his return, have been not a little alarmed at reports from the Old North State and are becoming solici tous lest the Overmanites have been taking too much for granted. There are several facts thst cannot be denied. The foremost is that Uey- ously developed In kls good look* and nice personality. Besides, she t could relish a home cooked snack. So the pleased anticipation with which she sat up and clapped her hands was not “acting," but came honestly from her heart and stomach. What a lark It was, to be sure; Betsy was enjoying herself more than she had done since her trip began. Aloyslus was peremptorily summoned; and while the teeth glowed in his black face like tombstones In a cemetery at mid night, he put up the card table in their compartment, and was re warded with a succulent lowa pear from Hal’s box. Dyspeptic millionaires fif'd chronic travellers who could buy the best the dining car afforded, stared half in amusement and half in envy, while passing to and from the diner, at the choice and tasty things Betsy gleefully arranged on the card table as Hal handed them to her from his suitcase. A generous and appetizing dis play Indeed, when all was eet! •With a mother’s usual exaggerated idea—fortunate in this case!—of her son’s eating capacity, Mrs. Chutney had stocked the impro vised luncheon container, a shoe box, with double portions of all those things she knew in her dear wisdom would most appeal to the palate of an excited youth. Dainty sandwiches there/ was, of crisp bacon and lettuci and tomatoes; great gobs of chocolate cake; hard boiled eggs, and a pinch of condi ments in paper twirls; and fruits! —pears and oranges, bananas and raisins. Betsy was as much impressed by the cleanliness and daintiness with which the luncheon was packed, as she was by the alluringness of the food; it gave to this little girl —who had never known a mother or motherly love—a queer pang to find a wet spot on a paper napkin, and to realize suddenly and in stlnctively that this was the sweet moisture of a mother's tears. Betsy stole a side glance at Hal at this discovery—but he, with clumsy and unseeing masculinity, would never in the world have guessed the truth of that telltale dampness. Betsy, feeling somehow that she sharing a precious secret, reverently slipped the nap kin inside her frock bosom, close .to her heart And still good natured and guileless Hal did not notice anything unwonted; he only knew that this sandwich tasted darned good. i**. “Oh, come now, please eat —you make me feel hoggish," urged Hal. Betsy shook away a covert tear, and from then on entered into the spirit of the impromptu supper with a test and a bubbling fun that bewildered and delighted Hal, and brought him in heart and mind to her feet from that hour onward forever. Between eating and laughing and • talking—between dreaming great dreams and planning great plans—two solid hours flicked past like so many minutes. When at length Hal’s lunch box was bare save for the debris, Betsy said, “Now I have a surprise—for des sert!” She playfully screened her ac tions from Hal’s eager inquisitive ness until she had withdrawn from her handbag a neat sack of candy, which she opened and then thrust under his nose; “Take one!" Hal peeked before he grabbed, and saw that the proffered sack was filled with confections in the shape of miniature hearts; some blood-red with white inscuiptions, some white with blood-red legends —and, alas for the nature faking of the sweets maker’s art, many there were of blue and green and yellow. “No fair looking! Close your eyes!" scolded Betsy. So H*l groped as directed, and when fi? had fingered a heart, Betsy asked, “What does it say?” Together they looked, and to gether they laughed—sheepishly. For tho heart said: 1 love you. Be mine To cev-sr her confusion, Betsy said, “New it’s my turn.” She cHuetl her eyes and extract ed a her.tt. Hal Insisted that she ought to be k sport and permit a mutual reading. But Betsy thought it woulv be more discreet if she examined it flrat, reserving free dom to Select another heart if the legend til this one were too — persona’.. *u the eud Hal’s argu ment prevailed. They read to gether: 7 am thine! Betsy blushed and looked out the window into the rushing ijght, saying over her shoulder, “Just lik;e telling fortunes with slot ma chines. Isn't it silly?" “Not a bit!” enthused Ha.. Then, because of this, once mere self-consciousness silenced them. Neither ate the. hearts; each awaited a chance to furtively slip theirs into a pocket, a hsndbag, for sentimental preservation How ever, it was not Fate’s w;ll that those hearts —symbolic, perhaps, of far more momentous thf igs that are usually associated witu simple candy—should remain v’rglually intact.

Which may or may not be significant. But if there is anything in psychology and the psy chic effect of personal contact, it certainly should be in Reynolds’ favor. "What does the thinking man want in a Senator?” the Overman people say. "A man who has proven his value as a representative of the peo ple of his State for mqre than 20 years in the Senate, or a young chap who goes around the state slapping folks on the back and asking them to vote for him? North Carolina voters are intelligent and they think before they vote. Bob Reynolds lias not got a chance,” They say. But there is no use in trying to dodge the fact that there are a great many people .in the state who think that it would not be a bad thing to have a little new blood injected in the State Senatorial representation in Washington, who see in Reynolds a representative of the younger school of thought and politics and who be lieve that he would ably represent his State in the Senate. And these who are so thinking are energetically voicing their sentiments and there is a surprisingly large number who IMtaae to lister—and opnder. And the results «f this pondering will be known after June s—not before. But there you are. Reynolds lias a following and from ail indications an 1 enthusiastic following. It may be that they are making up in noise what they are lacking in numbers. But the noise at least has caused the Over man camp some concern of late and although they arc trying not to show it. they are worried. "If is a peculiar situation," re marked one of the more thoughtful and unbiased followers of North Car olina jsilitics today.’ and one that has never In-fore occurred in the State before ill my memory. There are a lot of people who are appealed to by the personal contact, hand-shaking, back-slapping type of campaigning. And Reynolds has a personality that must be reckoned with—he is not mere slush. He has some sound argu ments in his behalf. As I said at first, it is a peculiar sort of cam paign that he has made and how well it worked will only be learned after June sth."
