Today Money and Politics. h What Is a Career? And What's a Prize Fight? Wanted, a Guardian. ^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^ Call money—which means gam bling money for stock speculators— cost officially 3 per cent yesterday. But speculators were not happy. The new tax law would cut taxes end boom speculation. But it would make income tax returns public property. Big men don’t want that, for reasons best known to them, so they fight the bill, and may kill it. It’s hard to please everyone. McAdoo says he has the demo cratic nomination cinched, sure and certain, so he’s happy. A1 Smith says no, and his committee of la dies—every one of whom will vote, and you may lay to that—say no, it will be A1 Smith. Tammany, under Smith's orders, has not chosen any governing head, but will run along under a committee, directed from behind the scenes by Smith—until the convention. A1 Smith is an able politician, but he has a competitor across the Hud son river from him, in Frank Hague, may or Jersey City. The latter knows politics from the cra dle, and has a considerable advan tage over Smith in working for some one else. Hague means that Governor Sulzer of New Jersey shall carry off the prize when Mc —. Adoo and Smith have killed each r"" other off. And thus far, Hague has won his tights. Miss Gildersleeve, dean of Barnard college, tells the girls that marriage is not enough for women now. Each girl must have a career, ns well as a husband. What is a career? Beethoven’s job was music. Michel Angelo’s was art. Did their mothers have a career, when they created them? Or must they also paint pictures and write music? Is not the crea tor as great as the thing created? Mothers are the creators. Men are only the product, depending for their fame on what their mothers give them. Governor Branch of Indiana would like to know “what a prize fight is,” in connection with a first class prize fight about to be “pulled off” in his state on May 31. A prize fight is a fight for a prize, in these days a big prize, often hundreds of thousands, some times a million. A prize fight authorized by pub lic officials is a suspension of iaws against assault and battery. Be cause it is profitable, promoters are permitted to break the law, setting a bad example before youth, gather ing together criminals from far and wide. Also it is a disgrace to the com munity that tolerates it. Whether ^ for profit or for morbid “pleasure,” prize fights are permitted because promoter* nre intelligent. They believe in splitting "50-50,” or “di viding the winnings three ways,” not failing to take in public officials, through whose indifference or con nivance they owe their profits. 'Slat’s a good answer to the qucs tied of the governor of Indiana. It may be added that prize fight ers, with extremely few exceptions, from the heavyweight champion down to the lightweight champion, ■were extremely careful to "keep out of the war. they believe in fight ing for a big “purse.” Fighting for your country is something different. McCutcheon, earnest patriot, re minds you that the first man that ever flew was an American. The first that ever crossed the Atlantic through the air was an American, and the first that ever flew from America to Asia, over the Pacific, was an American. He thinks Uncle Sam may he proud, and so he may, as regards flying men. But as regards flying machines, he is unfortunately an international joke. And that is not the worst of it. Secretary Wilbur of the navy says this country is by no means the equal of England, on the water. At pg. the Washington conference we agreed to cut down our fleet and even scrap magnificent new battle ships, half built, to oblige our Eng lish and Japanese brothers, who felt unable to compete with us finan cially. We were to be as strong at sea as England, the ratio to be: United States, 5; England, 5; Japan, 3. That was had enough, as it would have made England aid Japan com bined almost twice as powerful as the United States. But it’s worse than that. We have political ama teurs. England has statesmen. Secretary Wilbur tells you that the actual ratio is 5, 4, 3, with American in second place. And at that England notifies this country that we must not change our coal burning ships to oil burners, for that would increase their cruising radius, and we must not increase the elevation of our guns, as that would make them more effective, and make smaller the naval gap be tween the United States and ' Britain. A guardian would seem to he what Uncle Sam needs, in addition to flying machines, and some other things. (Copyiifcriif.

"If there ever has been a time of gigantic wars, If there ever was a day that called for giants of strength and heroes of soul. It Is the present age.” said Rev. Albert Kuhn, in his sermon on Memo'rial day, Sunday morning at Bethany Presbyterian church. "The war against religious Ignor ance, prejudice and intolerance has reached a new stage of Intensity. Good, hut short-sighted persons in every church assail every honest ef fort at getting at truth and at the facts, and It becomes a serious ques tion for many an earnest Christian whether to champion a scholarly, fearless and ho'nest search for truth even If exposing himself thereby to religious ostracism, or to let the champions of an unchangeable creed have all the say and wrap himself In silence for fear of being misunder stood and losing the faith and the love of fellowmcn. Economic War. "Then there is the war against eeo nomic injustice; the struggle between the o'pen and closed shop. What hit ter prejudices of many corporations and capitalists, what coarseness and unfairness often on the side of the labor leaders. Surely the Christian has to have his eyes wide open not to become enmeshed In the net of systems which are born of greed and hate. "But to one war all of us shotild dedicate ourselves especially on Me morial day: the war against war. More and more war is revealing it self in all its hideousness. It does not wear the glorious garb of ar moured knighthood; it appears in grimy overalls and In the acid stained garb of the chemical laboratory. Poison Gas War. • "We kill people by creating, from a safe distance, earthquakes to swal low them up and poisoned fogs to kill them. We poison men's minds by employing armies of expert liars to Invent yarns about the enemy or to warp and misco'nstrue anything our neighbor says or does. Press, pulpit and school, alike, should dedicate . themselves at the grave of so many a fine lad who has fallen a victim to these human brain storms to the fight for the eradica tion of this mania for wholesale kill ing from the popular mind and fo'r the substitution of manlier and more profitable ' contests of human brawn and brain.” Coolidge Reappoints Postmaster at Fremont Fremont, Neb., May 25.—Frank W, Fuhlrodt, postmaster for the past four years, has been reappointed by President Coolldpe, according to word received today, Fuhlrodt became act ing postmaster in 1917 when the com mission of the late Nat Smails expir ed.

Tirpitz Denies Quitting German Political Arena _ British Admiralty Lord Sanc tioned Sub Warfare of Enemy Navy Chief, Old Letter Reveals. By KARL It. \ ON WI EG AND, Iniversal henice Staff Correspondent. Beilin, May 25.—Grand Admiral von Tirpitz denies that he has been knocked out of the political arena or that he has withdrawn from the fight to become one of the pillars of the new German government. Conferences continued all day In an effort to break the deadlock over the makeup of the new cabinet and the form in which the Dawes report should be accepted. Both America and England have made it plain to Berlin that only the acceptance of the Dawes plan as a whole without any reserva tions whatever will be considered. Der Tag today reprinted a letter which the British lord of the adml ralty, Admiral John Fisher, wrote, during the war, to Von Tirpitz when the latter was dismissed by the kaiser. "Dear Old Tirpitz," It said, "we two are in the same boat. Long were we colleagues, old boy. But with battle cruisers we had the best of you Sind I know you swore neves to forgive me whert Bluecher and Von Hpee and his fleet went down. Head high, old boy. Just say ‘resurgam.’ You are the only German seaman who understands war. Kill your en emy without being killed yourself. I do not criticize you because of your submarine war. I would have done the same, but our idiots In England would not believe me. "Yours till hell freezes over, "FISHER. "March 29, 1916." The letter was evidently printed to show the German people that Von Tirpitz, even in war, had the respect of the enemy. Ludendorff has returned to Munich. He said he had not yet decided to be in Berlin for the opening session of the reichstag Tuesday. (CSpy right, 1924.) Adele Garrison “My Husband's Love” v_:-' The Agitated Question Dicky Asked Madge About Lillian. I kept fny eyes straight ahead of me ns I made my little overture toward peace, but I was distinctly conscious that Dicky had started per ceptibly. He did not reply at once, however, hut I was neither piqued nor uneasy, for I knew his sure response to any thing which appealed to his resibles. When he spoke at last. It was with assumed gruffness, but I heard In his voire the familiar note for which I had listened. "Sure you've conquered your ob session that the road lies along the tree tops?" he queried. I darted a look at him and caught him looking at me. We gazed a bit sheepishly at each other, then with a little laugh that answered the grin on hie face, I took one hand from j the wheel and laid It for an Instant i on his, which turned as if involun- i tarily to meet it and kept it tender- 1 ly imprisoned for a second before releasing It. "Sorry," I said as I again put both hands on the weel. "Sorry," he returned even more emphatically, and our time honored ritual of reconciliation for small quarrels was over. It has been the salvation of our married happiness. I think that neither of us holds any rancor after tiny ordinary disagree mept, nor does either of us ever refer to the unpleasantness. Dicky Is a past minster of amusing light chatter, and I found the road to the farmhouse unbelievably short. It was not until we were within 10 miles of home that I heard anything I Owners have learned that It actually I cost them less to own a Packard. | Richardson Motor Car Co. jjj HA 0010 3016 Harney St. |i Jhere. no Question Puritan Malt Flavor better Tux> kindt— Plain Puritan IMoft F.ntrmrt mutt* m3-mm. packago of h*H*ti. and Puritan /tap* Flaoormd fttaP Sugar Syrup.

Then, after a moment’s silence, he queried soberly: •'D’you think old Ede was really sore because I told her she looked five years younger?” I dared not wait to analyize his tone to query w’hether there was any quality In it other than ordi nary uneasiness at the possibility of having wounded the feeling of an old friend. "She wasn’t angry,” I replied slowly, "hut I think she was a bit hurt. Not seriously, however.” “I wish the cat did have my tongue,” Dicky rejoined ruefully. “But I never thought Ede would take my remark that way. Funny thing, that, too. I hadn’t thought, consciously, that she looked older until she tossed that retort at me. Then I realized that she had gone off quite a bit. Not enough really to make any difference in her looks —Ede always will be a stunner— but enough to be noticed. Still it certainly wasn't up to me to call it to her attention.” "No, it wasn't,” I admitted, hon estly, although any censure of him wras repugnant to me at that moment. There had been a note In his voice that was music to my ears, a note which betrayed the .unmistakable fact that Edith Fairfax’s age or looks meant nothing more to him than those of any other woman friend of ours. "That's right, swing the little old hammer on me!" he said, huffily. "If you women aren't all the holy out side limit! That was the most harm less remark possible, and you’d think I committed every crime In the social calendar.” I was happy enough to devour an unusually large piece of humble pie. “IJpnestly, Dicky, I didn’t mean to scold,” I said earnestly. "I just agreed with you, that was all," this with a demure grin at him. "So let’s forget it, as I am surfe Edith has done long before this.” "She has If she has the sense she was born with,” he growled, but there was a distinct lessening of tension on his part. My nerves tautened, how ever, at his next words, spoken w’lth the most apparent casualness. “By the way, what’s the big Idea of old Lll staying at the apartment while we're at the farm?” I sparred for time Involuntarily. "Why—why shouldn't she if she wants to?” "No reason in the world. But why should she want to? That's what's eating me. There surely isn't any unusual north light in that studio apartment of ours"—his voice fairly dripped the contempt he feels for our temporary city home—"and while she may desire its luxurious appointments for a series of studio teas—yet some thing tells me that It Is something else again which is luring our fair friend. “Look here!" he demanded. “Is she doing any of her famous sleuthing stunts about that bunch in the rear apartment?"
