Chairman HIIIos of the republican: allonal cominlttco has cnllod that) body together to meot In Decembur, i two yeara earlier than It would oth erwlso be convened, "to confer on i party matters and to take any action i which may be deemed advisable."! This mooting of the full committee, however, is part or tno understanding i rrlvcd at by the conference several months ago between the executive committee and the various party leaders urging reapportionment of representation to do away with ovor- wclghted delegations from the south ern states before tho next presiden tial ticket Is nominated. -The main question that will con front the commlttao will be whether It has power to adopt a new ratio of convention membership, or is limited to merely calling another national convention on the old ratio. It would, in our opinion, be highly de sirable If tho committee could find a way to apply a remedy, Itself, to this recognized weakness In tho party or ganization, for there are obstacles to bo ovorcomo for an off-year conven tion, particularly In direct primary states like ours. At tho saroo time here are also serious difficulties be setting commlttco action, not the least of which is the fact that each tate has an equa,l volco and vote In tho committee, so that Now York has no more weight there than Nevada, The problem, however, can be Eolvod, and with the beBt Intelligence of the party advisors focused upon It, will, we feel sure, be ovontually solved to the satisfaction of tho re publican rank and file. The Paramount Question. Tho district court has upheld tho validity of the city ordinance under which a plumber was lined for cut ting Into tho stroot and placing a water meter In violation of its pro visions, yet conformably to the rules and regulations of the Water board. This raises tt paramount question, or rather, a question of paramountcy, botween the city authorities and our Water board overlords, who have al ways claiinod to be a law unto thom- soIvob, superior to and Immuno from any power wielded by tho city offi cials. If tho city can regulato tho placing of motor boxes In tho strooto, and enforce tho regulations, the Water hoard to tho contrary notwith standing, perhaps the city has a few other rights which the Water board Is bound to respect. We would Mho to boo the Ubup Involved tried out by un appeal ot this case to the supremo court, but wo do not bcllevo tho Water boarders daro Invito the test, Mr. Underwood. Although by no means a surprise, Charlman Underwood's .announced candidacy for the vacancy InMho sen ate from Alabama proves a very in torching subjoct of political discus slon and. speculation, As chairman of the ways and means commlttco hQ had charge of tho tariff bill which hears his name and whoso enactment nto law, be says, rounds out bis work n the house. He now expresses the wish of continuing bis official career by serving hla state In the senate, Accepting his Ideallstlo explanation at par, few are, apt to believe that tho distinguished southerner, who showed signs of national party strength fta a, candidate for tho presi dential nomination last year, Is seek ing a test In the sonata as n stepping stone to private life. Respite the faot, as some of his friends have re minded, hiw, no man nas yet gone from the senate direct to the White House, the astute Mr. Underwood. living In a day of- destruction to precedents, possibly seen where suoh a promotion might afford him a van Use ground In attaining the preslden tlal nomination, Incidentally, another explanation Is being bruited with fair plausibility. namely, that Mr. Underwood hoe con vlnced himself President Wilson will stand for a second term despite tho one-term plank in the platform on which ho was elected. With the leadership pre-empted for llt$, the eonstorsntp now naturally seems mora attractive than a long chance In. 1930 at a nomination of doubtful value, The Boy una the President, The messenger boy Injured bodily, and with the loss of bis bicycle, In a colltslon wjth the president automo bile must be a very happy youth to nave the chief exocutJve visit him at the hospital and buy him a new bicycle. What American lad would not gradly suffer a few bumps for such a balm? Think of ths boy's distinction among hie fellows when he Rets back into the harness on that new wheel, Fortunstely, he Is not seriously hurt, but the president's solicitude has been aa marked as If he werp. TbJs llttlo Incident, with the presi dent at the boy's bedside cheering and comforting him, la remindful cf the pretty little romance related of Wncoln in "The Perfect Tribute," and might serve to dispel doubts of Its reality, so far as Its mere, proba bility Is concerned.

OMAHA, Oct. ,-To tho Bdltor of The Bee: In your last Sunday papor you had an editorial praising the Hermans for their parade during our recent Ak. Bar Ben festivities. That was very appropriate. The Ger mans undoubtedly deserve pralso for all the trouble they took to make that parade a success, but when you say In the same editorial that the Germans have set an example to tho other sorcalled foreign elements, I and n good many other Danish-Americans think that It la a lltt'.e too much. Granted that the Germans are supremo In all the virtues and enterprises which their floats represented, stilt there s something German which the floats did not show, u Is the Iron heel which throttled so mercilessly the smaller nation from which I came. Other people, of course, can emulate the German If they choose, but we Danish-American people will continue to admire and take our examples from the unassuming, justlcelovlng native Amer ican, whom we greatly prefer to the pompous, ceremonial German. Having been a constant reader of your paper for a generation. I now ask you to-publlnh the above among your other published Utters. A DAN18HAMERICAN. For obvious reasons I don't want my name .published, Advice that Hhunlil De Heeded. OMAHA, Oct. 4.-To the Editor of The Bee i Ypu gave the distillers, brewers and tha retail liquor dealers some wholesome advice In your article n The Bee today under the caption "A Word About After- Hour Wouor Selling." They have shown to the cltlsen of Omaha and of Ner braaka that they have no hesitancy In violating ths law of this state, "Give them rope enough and they will hang themselves," I an old saying. A. W. A. JK3 Webster street. Danfrerotia Speeding; of City Vehicles OMAHA, Oct, 4,-To the Editor of The Bee; During the last week, whan the streets of Omaha have been crowded to capacity nearly every day, several fire hava occurred, and each time the larga automobile fire trucks have dashed down the principal streets at a rate which I should estimate at forty mllos an hour, endangering tho Ulves of all who were upon the streets and merely to save a few seconds In going to a flro. Anyone who haa ever driven an auto mobile, or who knows anything about the laws Of physics, doea not need to be told that a heavy truck of this kind cannot be stopped inside of a block, when go tng over thirty-five miles per hour, re gardless of how skillful the driver mav b. The morning ef Oatober 4 one of the larga trucks went down Harney street, crossing Sixteenth street at about S O'clock and traveling about thirty-five miles per hour, I .should estimate Tho streets wero wet and slippery, and had street car or other vehicle, or a per son been In tha way at an Intersection fatal collision would have surely re- suitcu. Tlio fact that these trucks use a loud warning horn makes pq difference, as H Is often Impossible to hear the horn until It Is closest)', tn the roar of downtown traffic Whethor this fast driving on the part of the firemen, policemen and other city employes Is due to orders they have re qelyed, or what Is more likely, a desire to bp "smart" and show off, I do pot know, but I do know that a continuance will mean aure death to someone sooner or later, and possibly a score or more, If street car ever gets In the way. If It Is necessary to do so, r- would suggest the Placing of automatic governors on tha motors of these trucks, limiting them to, aay twentytfiye miles per hour, which s a great deal faster that; the horse drawn iruoua can go, ana wmcn is a speed fairly consistent with safety, wisn to can attention to the fact that city employes, driving city automobiles and motorcycles, have been responsible for an unusually large number of ac cldents In the last two years. This 1 due, I believe, to the fact that they con alder themeelvea Immune from legal pun Ishment. Our mptorcycle squad, com posed of Officers Emery, Wheelxr and others, make on everyday practice of speeding at1 the rate of fifty mile an hour, not because It I necessary, but becue of their evident love pf tha spectacular and because there Is no one tq stop them. I am ot the opinion that a vehicle driven by a city employe in eseeea of any reasonable speed limit Is Just as dangerous a unit aa one driven by a private Individual, and therefore should be subjected to the same regula tlons. A review of the deaths and serloua ac cident caused by careesly handled or speeding cty vehicle In the last (wo year will show a surprisingly large number of deaths and serlpu accidents. J believe a little supervision richt now would be or a great deal more value than a coroner's Inquest later. CJIAHLES THOMPSON.

Oct. 6.-TO the Editor of The Bee; I note from The Bee that our esteemed friend, Jerry HofVonJ qf South Omahs, I sorely grieved ovr n Imaginary trust In the South Omaha stock yards. Mr. Howard has truthfully Stated several thing In .regard to the conditions prevailing, but has failed to go far enough' 1 1 his statement. The plain facts are, Mr. Howard, you have what is denominated a Live Stock exchange and alto th Traders' ex Change In the yards to deal with and the two together constitute a sort ot com bination and work together. I would pot Odvle you to bq too hard on the bunch, for tie reason that they are, most of them, young, and just starting out In te and need good fatherly advice and pot proiefutlon, and confinement In the pen. To be exact, let me give you the offices of ths two concern shove named. The.se gentlemen Pay a handsome sum tq be-tip-no members of the organisation and (are generally known by the shippers and buyers or live stoek as commission men and speculators and the oommlsston men used to get 112 per car for selling the cattle, but reeently under the manage ment they get IIS per ear for selling tha shipper's stook. The stook yard company, with a lim ited amount of help (Jut about half enough), gin tha stook upon their arrival around In the alleys from three to six hours before delivering to the commis sion man on the hill, who els them to what is known as the Traders' exchange, sometimes spoken ot as "speculators. '' Theie cattle stay In the hands of the commission man from one to three hours and are fed Interior hay before delivery to Mr. Speculator, who feeds them pre ferred hay until commllon man No. 1 come with another sucker to purchase them, and again Mr. Commission man getn J U commission from sucker No, 2. When these cattle are shipped from South Omaha to the feed ota of Mr. Farmer and Feeder, he discovers that they have shrunk from 2.WJ0 to J,&oo pounds per car enroute. The original sel ler and shipper from the range I allod only 8oO pounds fill per car by the rail road company- Who gets the difference between the fill and the shrink? This arrangement make a net loss to the feeder of from 5o to 1100 per car. The commission men and the sppu lators are on very Intimate term. anJ the prospective buyer Is mada to believe that he can make good money by secur ing the services of Mr- Commission Man tn buy the cattle for him. and again Mr. Commission Man geta a commission of tlJ per car, making a total qf $27 per car qn about 80 per cent of all cattle handled. Mr Bulla and A, F, Stryker, secretary. under the guiding eye of Mr. Buckingham. look on while all this la going on and never pat an eye, Now, friend Jerry, why do you go to the poor, helpless county attorney, at torney general qf Nebraska, or of the United states, Secretary Bryan or Presi dent Wilson, when you have a railway commission created by the people pf this state for the express purpose of dispens ing even handed Justice Why not opply directly tn this honorable body of eom mlssjoners and get the evils complained of corrected, after a proper showing. Try It, as (In common with many other feeders and shippers, am surely Interested in having remedied the condition of which you and I complain. Yours for a square deal. jt. w, RAL8TQN.

In seeking Information, when Congressman William l'. norland pf Missouri was reminded, he said, of a cose along that line. Somo time ago, according to the con gressman, John Henry, who for many weeks had been carrying Ice cream and chocolates to the home of the beauteous Mauda Marie, tenderly asked the dear one to change the style of her vlsltlpg cards, all of which mado Maudo Marie stop, look and listen. The dear ope didn't know the size of John Henry's bank account, and in a matter of this kind It was Important she should know before committing her self. So she baited a hook and began to angle. "I don't think i ought to marry you, John, dear," said the maid, ever so softly. "I am afraid we wouldn't get along well. You, are too dreadfully ex travagaht." ' "Extravagant!" exblalmed the .young man. "','On tho contrary, dearest, t am very economical. I have to be." "Then," very emphatically declared Maude Marl, "I can never be your wife!"
