"Old Guard" leaders of the Senate
are reported to have sent to Wiscon-
sin for a copy of "Young Bob" La
“Declaration of Princi-
ples." as the first step toward read-
ing La Foliette out of the Republi-
can party”
What have "principles" to do with
it?
Is. Follette's platform can not
differ from the Republican declartt-
tion more than that of eSenator
Borah. for instance. who is not 'oniy
still recognized as a Republican. but
is made the official Republican
leader on the very issue on which he
repudiates the party platform.
Senator Lodge, "regular" of regu-
lars. was not read out when he did
the same thing. The Old Guarders
themselves did not read themselves
out when they upset Repuhi'can
policy. on the tax bill. the bonus,
and other issues.
It is not principles. It is “standing
in."
The Republican voters of Wiscon-
sin made “Young Bob" the regular
Republican nominee and then elecl~
ed him. The only candidates against
him were boilers. running inde-
pendent.
If a candidate after the Old
Gunrd's own heart had thus won
the regular nomination. any boiler
running against him would have
been read out of the party.

at the polls on Monday!

It is conceded that the city elec-
tloa this yettr will he a Republican
landslide.
The main interest centers not on
the Mayoralty contest, for Mayor
Robins will he returned to office by
a sweeping majority. but on the of-
' flee of Tax Collector. It is also cer-
{sin that a Republican Council will
be elected.
' This is a Republican year!
,The candidates for Collector of

Vote for Lawrence Paul and en-

Mitchell has been in office for six-
teen years and, during that time, by
“the granting of tax “favors" for po-
l“‘lltictil ends, has made himself the
strongest single cog in the Demo-
cratic machine.
‘i In fact, the entire Democratic
party in the City of Norwalk today
is built around the Tax Collector's
Office.

past elections, and is spending in this

A straightforward appeal for votes
for Lawrence Paul raises a howl in
the Democratic ranks and from the
Democratic newspaper in this city.
Why? Because it is feared that if
-.\Iitchel1 is turned cut of office, as he
surely will be on Monday. a search-
ing investigation of the Tax Collect-
or's Office will be made.
Vote for Lawrence Paul for Tax
Collector. He is an upright. fearless.
clean-cut. successful young business
‘_ man. who will administer the aftairs‘y

Pall] for Tax Collector and an em-

back taxes bf a year's'standing. its
tax bill being $497.50.
We are proud to state that the
fact that this paper owes taxes of s

its columns to the lcause of a man
who will place the Tax Collector's

The Last Frontier l
Scientists are planning to build
an arch dnm one hundred feet high
near Fresno, Cztlif., at a. cost of
$70,000. As soon as they have built
it they will set about destroying it.
But in destroying $70,000 worth
of concrete nmsonury. the scientists
tapecl to settle problems that are
centuries old and to save the future
builders of arch dams not thous-
ands but millions of dollars. I-‘or.
paradoxical its it sounds. scientists
have found that-one way to improve
things is to destroy them.
The scientist calls this process
"tcsti‘lig to destruction." it is prac-
ticed by'tlic U. S. Bureau of Stan-
dards. the U. S. Bureau of Mines,
the mtionai fire underwriters' lab-
oratories. and many manufacturing
companies. including especially the
makers of telephones and electrical
apparatus. '
An engineer designs a telephone
transmitter that he thinks is better
than one in use. Accordinly the
ltilnsntltlt‘)‘ is put before a graphe-
phone which shouts “hello" into it
continuously, day and night, until
the telephone transmitter breaks.
The record is then compared with
the record for other types of trans-
mitters. .
The U. S. Bureau of Standards
tests steel beams by smashing them
with a hydraulic press capable of
exerting thousands of tons pressure.
Steel safes are tested by throwing
them off roofs down upon concrete
pavements.
The fire underwriters stage fires
to test fire-proof materials. . s
No test up to the present, how-
ever. has been as spectacular as that
proposed with the arch dam.
