Today 157-Pound Holstein Roby. Odds on Coolidge Too Lou\ ^ By ARTHUR BRISBANE J Mora interesting to 20,000,0110 farmers than anything else is the hirth, in Canada, of a calf weighing 157 pounds at birth. The mother of course, is a Holstein. The average weight of a newborn calf is between 80 and 90 pounds. If “artificial selection" could »aise the averase weight of calves to the Canadian maximum, it would mean tens of millions increased profit to the farmers. The betting is 9 to 5 on Coolidge. Until democrats stop fighting and decide to nominate somebody that the people at least know by name, the Coolidge odds ought to be higher. New York city says that McAdoo won’t be nominated anyhow. Thomas F. Ryan who controls Tam many Hall, through A1 Smith, will attend to that. McAdoo’s friends say “that's a good deal of power for one man to have, especially when he isn't in public life, and if McAdoo should get it the things that John Skelton Williams did to that bank in Washington might seem like feeble child’s play.” There’s going to be some fighting. Many believe that A1 Smith is really trying for the vice presidency, “aiming high, to shoot low.” Our friends in Asia say “sooner or later there must come the strug gle between East and West.” It isn’t to be “sooner or later.” It came long ago, and it is on now. It will be on 1,000 years from now, perhaps. Read Mareopolos account of his voyage to the court of the Grand Khan Kublai, read the history of Attiia’s raids into western Europe. Read of the Turks defeat by the fighting unonk and other courageous Hungarians at Pest. The fight be tween east and west has been on for many centuries. The west wins because it knows more, and because east against west has been absolute autocracy and tyranny against democracy. These are days of money. Dollars hold the power, once exercised by pagan priests. They have the force that once resided in the fist of the military ruler. Dollars have now the determina tion that once went with the witch hunter. Dollars in fact, have all the power. Ask Dr. Guthrie, head of St. Mark Protestant Episcopal church, in New York. Trying to do something new in religion, to interest people, he had charming young ladies dancing in his church to express highest, most beautiful religious sentiments. His bishop told him he mustn’t do it, but he kept light on. Other clergymen criticised him, but he went right on. But money, represented by the extremely wealthy men in his ves try, says “we have had enough of that dancing now, stop,” and the dancing stops. Dollars are the modern soldiers. The pen that signs the check is the scepter and sword combined. The economical safe deposit vault and hank account take the place of the great standing army. Prohibitionists of New York through their spokesmen say they "scent a plot J.o nominate a wet" ; in the democratic convention. What of it? It is no crime in thi United States to say or vote what you think. If the democrats want to nominate a "wet" let them. Then let the people decide whether they want • “wet” or a “dry.” It would be an interesting fight, and incidentally, it would bring out some William Jennings Bryan ora torical fireworks worth hearing.
