SPECIAL ELECTION WOULD BE CALLED If Coolidge Should Die—Mis taken Belief That Cabinet Member be President. BY J. case of the’deaths of both president and vice-president, cabinet members can become president. The fact in the matter is that cabinet officials can only act as “temporary” presi dent. Therefore in case President Cool idge should die, Charles E. Hughes, who was once repudiated by the peo ple, would not become president. He Would temporarily act. Many news, papers have arranged the cabinet 'members in the order of their /'presidential succession” but these lists only indicate the order in which they might become a, temporary chief executive. are mis leading. ft . In case of the d4P$fM?£ the presi dent and vice-presmedie law.re quires the acting ||r|pdent to call Congress at once ifi<|^ssion, giving 20-days notice, if it is not already in session; and Congress would then pro ceed to provide for a special election. The Constitution says that the president . shall be “electedthis shuts put cabinet officials absolutely, for they are appointed and not elect ed. The CongreMi There is a mist jptoenMt. relief that in 1 The wisdom and-the foresight of the framers of the Constitution were shown by this provision. They fore saw this very situation and wanted to make certain that the presidency should never be filled by anyone who was not elected by the people. lender a monarchial system the succession is provided for and the people have nothint'tg) say about it. But some will say fchf|l We now have an oligarchy in this, country—one of wealth—more comjjjtmt# known as Wall Street. Granting this is true, we still have the right through the ballot to turn this “invisible” gov ernment out of power. If the voters of this country do not like the kind of presidents they elect, they can change them.- They get just what they vote for. _ -as--— Which all reminds us that-there is going to be a presidential campaign in 1924! Now is the time for the workers and women voters to organ ize, appoint committees, raise funds and “get busy” in general. Through the intelligent use of political fran chise, the workers can put men in control of our government who will protect their rights, ffiminate privi lege, and once more make this a government of the people. the Pj-ogressiveT^must do is educate and organize the great ma jority of voters who' are willing to go and vote with them on one day in every four years.

CLERKS RECEIVE A KKXARDLY RAISE One apd Two CiAti an Hour Granted Clerk*—^-Had Asked For «ma ^f«it Iparea^ ,. employe* on 65 trunk fines antf thejr subsidiaries were awarded a wage In crease of from. 1 to 2 cent* an hour in a decisoin announced by the Railroad Labor Board on Monday, October 22. The Classes which ben efit are clerks, station forces, dock, warehouse, and platform freight handlers. Experts in the board’s statistical department estimate that the total pay roll will be advanced approximately $20,000,000 a year by this award. Increases on 29 other roads had previously been obtained for employ es of these classes by direct negotia tion between representatives of the unions and the managements. Employes affected by the decision were represented before the board by the'Brotherhood <?f Bailway and Steamship Clerks, .Freight Handlers, Express and Station Employes, and the Internationa! Longshoremen’s , Association. ■ The decision was made effective as of October, 1923. Following are some of the; roads i of the south affected,by the increase: Atlantic & Yadkin. Cincinnati, New Orleans A Texas Pacific. Georgia Southern & Florida. Grand Trunk (lines in United States). New Orleans & Northeastern. New Orleans Terminal. . „ .Northern Alabama. : ' Richmond, Fredericksburg & Po tomac. | | Seaboard Air Line. I Southern. “Niggardly,” Says FitzGerald, • In a statement given out from his headquarters in Cincinnati, E. H, FitzGerald, grand president of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks, de clares the award of 1 and 2 cants an hour increase by the Railroad Labor Board is “niggardly.” The clerks had asked for an increase of 9 cents an hour. ' Hje said the decision was another argument in support of the demand that Congress abolish the board and permit wage , settlements to be made by direct negotiations between man agers and representatives of employ WEIL, OLD CRITIC WHAT SAY YE NOW? Ft. Y. Central Mtt»t Return $30,000,000 To Government. Did U. & Ruin Road? ■ ■1 ■■ ■ , Daring the period of federal con trol of railroads the national govern ment expended for betterments and | extension* on the New York Central | $23,000,000 more than it was bound ! to expend under its contract. There fore the Ntew York Central will be I required to pay that sum into the ! federal treasury, according to a set tlement just completed with the di 1 rector general of railroads. ! Only one larger settlement has | been made by the Railroad Adminia- j tration, the Pennsylvania Railroad having been required to admit an in debtedness of $90,000,000 for ex cessive expenditures during federal ■ operation. The New York Central will be; privileged to give the government notes representing its indebteness, j extending over a period of 15 years j artd bearing a low rate of interest. Both the S&ew York Centr’al and the Pennsylvania he'd 'presented claims against the government for alleged uiwteMnaintenance which an audit of their books failed to sub stantiate. When all accounts had been examined it was learned that hath of these roads had been im proved to a much greater extent than was required, of the government un der its rental contract. • > .. The feet that these two great systems have agreed to pay the govern area* the*# mermens sums on account of over-maintenance m • complete answer, at least. in so far a* the road* affected are concerned, to the railroads ’ idea that they are “starved*’ during the war. ^ \ CARPENTERS AND FARMERS Meet regularly at our store— because the Tools they want are here, Farmers Hardware Co. 48 North College Street Good Utility Means It has come to pass that we accept a high standard of electric, gas or street railway service as 4 matter of course. We regard these services pretty much as we regard the air we breathe, or the water we drink. It is worth the while, however, to give some consideration to what these services really mean to Us, arid to the resources of mpney and brain power and man power that are behind these services and necessary to the rendition of these services. . What Is Behind Your Electric Service Take your electric service, for instance. The electricityj which lights your home, wfhich operates your suction sweeper, washes your clothes, or brings you comfort through the electric fan in summer, makes possible the delicious, crisp waffles for your breakfast, percolates your coffee, and other innumerable things—this electric ity is being generated at the very instant of its utilization in your home. And not only are competent men on duty at .the power plant where the electricity is generated, but other competent men are on duty at the switching and transformer stations. Still others-are constantly aert and ready to answer “trouble calls,” sd that if, for any. reason,' your .service is interrupted it may be restored as quickly as is humanly possible. The power plants, thrmiles upoiTmiles of transmission lines, the transformers and switching equipment, and other apparatus ' necessary to' assure you safe, proper, and uniform electric service represents; an investment of millions of dollars. The Service which you receive would be impossible without this investment. This investment, as well as the constant, continuous efforts of our entire organization, are the essentials which make possible for you the electric service you enjoy in your home. \ ' , .. .. y \ ‘..5 • , ' '■> ' ' Si. What Enters Into Gas Service Consider gas. Gas is merely coal or crude oil with the dust, the smoke, the odors, and the labor of handling taken out. It is refined, perfect fuel. The investment in gas plants and holders, distribution mains, etc., and the continuous 24-hour day labor of the men at the gas plant, take the place of the coal dealer, the coal truck, the labor of handling solid fuel in the home with its attendent dirt, dust, smoke and drudgery, and all you have ‘to do is to strike a match and turn the cock. When you cook wjith gas or heat a room with gas don’t figure that you are purchasing only fuel. Yoq are purchasing the labor of men and helping to pay interest on the investment which transforms the fuel into its convenient, perfect gaseous form, delivered to your burner, What Your Carfare Pays For What is true, of electricity and gas is very largely true of street railway service. Your car fare Vresumfably pays the wages not only of the man. who operates the car, but must support also the crew of expert mechanics and other workers at the car bam who keep the cars in good operating condition. It helps to pay for the power which is used to drive the car. It pays the wages of the track forces which maintain the tracks in good condi tion*. It is supposed also to pay property and franchise taxes and interest on the thousands of dollars invested in paying between and on each side of the rails. Theoretically, it is supposed also to pay interest on the invest ment in car lines, car bam, rolling stock, and other essentials for an efficient street railway system. An Important Feature Another outstanding feature of the services which our company renders to the public is through its sales depart ment. In order to secure best results from the use of gas and electricity in the home and elsewhere, tested and tried apparatus are necessary. The appliances in botl^ the electric and gas departments which we sell have been carefully investigated, examined, and tested in our research laboratory. We can not afford to sell any but reliable appliances, because When we sell appliances we do not consider that we are through With them. We provide the service which is used through that appliance and We are called upon to keep that appliance in perfect adjustment and condition. One may readily judge, then, that we could not afford to sell, at any price, appliances Which will “go bad” or give unsatisfactory service. A further point which may properly be empha sized Is that all of the appliances, lamps and other merchandise which we sell is sold at as lowJ a margin of profit as is compatible with safe business practices. Big Opportunities for Our Customers * Your attention is directed to a special feature of the service being rendered by our sales department at the > present time. It is: ' , The special campaign on kitchen lighting during which we are offering the perfect DAY ; LIGHT KITCHEN UNIT at the small price of $6, payable at the rate of 50c per month. This unit singly transforms a kitchen, mak^s it a brighter and more cheerful place, and kitchen ‘ tasks easier and more rapidly performed. We have such confidence in this kitchen lighting unit that we are giving a 30 days1 free trial offer to such of our customers as desire it. More than 5,500 of our 20,000 customers have availed themselves of our offer on this lighting unit. This campaign will end NoVemjber 10th. We desire to maintain as intimate touch as possible with each one of our patrons.- We desire to be of the " greatest service possible to them* and we invite their interest, co-operation and suggestions.
