WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Dem

Is jimtl-ifr Democratic circles,
the vattle is'all over —so far as
retail** are concerned—exqcpt the
-deVui of counting the ballots.
Be cocky are the party's "lead
era” over the “certainty” of suc
cess that new stationery just or
dered for use at Democratic head
quarters bears no printed return
card, no address—just the picture,
in blood-red ink, ot a crowing
rooster, neck arched, wings flap
ping, proclaiming victory.
This, when not only the presi
dential and vice presidential candi
: dates are wholly matters of specu
: iation, but even the temporary
; chairman for the convention baa
not been decided on.
Finis james garrett, of
Dresden, Temp, stands weU up
on the list of possible keynoters of
the Democratic convention, how
ever.
Garrett, although only 48, is one
of the seniors of Congress, in point
of service. This session he com
pletes 20 years in the lower house,
l during which time he has proven
one of the steadiest, most consist
! ent workers on the Democratic
side. As one of the four Demo
" cratic members of the rules com
mittee, he is one of his party's
legislative strategists.
A slender, Sallow Southerner, is
he, actually rivaling Nick I<ong
worth. Republican leader in the
House, in [mint of haldness, but
hiding the barren expanse of his
cranial dome with a thin thatch of
long hair from one side, carefully
combed upward and across the toil.
A good speaker, of the fiery, dra
matic type, Garrett doubtless could
get the Democratic delegates away
to a spectacular, hip-hip-hooray
start. How they would finish, well,
that would be the lookout of the
permanent chairman.
But it they want him to finish

CHAUTAUQUA MOVEMENT
/ " *> ' ■
“Let me express the hope that the peqgle will not
fail in the support of a patriotic institution j&at may be
said to be an integral part of the national defense.”
—Former President Woodrow Wilson
“Chautauqua has served to reveal thq, individual
American community to itself at its best. It has been a
voluntary, inspirational service in which men and
women have given the best they have in them for the
? . sake of the social interest.”
—Former President Warred G. Harding
“The Chautauqua movement has been one of the
most influential of our democratic endeavors.”.
, —Charles E. Hughes, Secretary of State
“What I have seen of public life gives me ft realiz
ing sense of the power of the Chautauqua movement to
mould public opinion.”
—Governor Gifford Pincbot of Ptansylvania
“A movement based on an idea which has now
spread over the whole of our country and, in fftet, over
the world; an idea which has been and will continue
to be of'immense educational value to all the people
and of first importance to their welfare.”
—Thomas A. Edison
“With all the great influence that the press com
mands, it remains true that the platform is a powerful
agency to instruct and to inspire.”
—Albert Shaw, Editor Review of Review*
“The Chautauqua movement has probably done
more toward keeping American public opinion in
formed, alert and unbiased than any other movement.”

BUSINESS AND THE OtTLOOK

The reduction in the rediscount rate
of the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York 'from 4 1-2 foA per cent, came as
a treat surprise la financial and busi
ness circles last week. Its effect is
who.ly problematical, reminding one of
the old-time story of the burglarious
trackmen who got a small iron safe
loaded on their truck'and were starting
away when one of them asked the ques
tion which none could answty: “Now
