THE CANDIDATE'S WISHES
, IGNORED
CHERE will be some sur
prise at the action of the
supreme court in order
ing that the name of Justice
Hughes be placed on the pri
mary ballot after he had sent
a sworn declaration to the sec
retary of state asking that his
name be kept off the ballot
and saying he declines the
nomination tendered him by
those filing his petition in this
state.
The past version of this sub
ject has been that a candidate's
wishes govern in such matters,
as seems entirely proper. If
the candidates wishes are not
to be respected some strange
possibilities may be opened up.
It may be possible to load down
the presidential primary ballot
with favorite son candidates
and others, thus confusing the
situation and preventing a pro
per expression of sentiment up
on the real candidates.
If the same rule is to be ap
plied to state, county and dist
rict offices it is easy to see how
the court may make a joke of
our direct primary law.
It will be interesting to note
the reason advanced by the
court for its action in the
Hughes cases and the extent to
which that ruling will apply
throughout the state.
MAKE THE MONEY COUNT

With reference to prepared-
MM a greater navy and a ;
larger army is essential. To'
.1.,. ... 1. ... A- 1 '
""Willi uirac ut iiiri iiirms larger
appropriations will be needed.
But it should be possible to se
cure more adequate prepared
ness even by spending the same
amounts as in the past. There
are signs the United States has
not been receiving full value
for its army and navy expen
ditures. Dollar for dollar we
have not been getting the re
sults other nations have ob
tained. There are good reasons for
believing the country has been
grafted by armor plate makers
and other concerns supplying
us with equipment. It has
been shown that our armor
plate makers have sold armor
to Japan cheaper than to the
United States. Hence the bill
tor a government armor plate j
factory and the agitation for
government munition plants.
The legislation proposed by
congress has already brought
some results. It has brought
forth an offer from the armor
makers to reduce the price and
to let the government fix the
price as it sees fit. Doubtless
there are some strings upon
that offer but it is encouraging
just the same.
A dollar's worth of prepar
edness for every dollar spent
for that purpose is a slogan the
general public will heartily en
dorse. The greatest obstacle
at present in the path of the
preparedness move is the fact
we have been spending billi
ons and have little to show for
it it we are to believe what our
militarists say of the army and
ravy.

ARTIST BLAKELOCK, mas
)fa ter painter of American
landscapes, has been
freed from the insane asylum
to which he was committed
17 years ago. He nearly starv
ed to death painting master
pieces which he sold for a pit
tance and today he returns
to see them on museum walls
recognized as among the great
tst works of their kind.
But joyous as this must be,
will he feel like turning back
to the asylum when he sees
some of the other things that
have gone up on the walls in
the past 17 years? Will he
doubt his restoration to sanity
when he is confronted by art's
vagaries and futuristic freaks?
Or, surrounded by such pres
ences as "A Nude Descending

At a charity bazaar in a small prov

tiny gray suede glove, which lay on a
rose-pink satin cushion. Above it was
displayed a notice which read:
"The owner of thjs glove will, at 7
o'clock this evening. re pleased U
kiss any person who purchases a tick
et before that hour."
It was such a sweet little glove that
it could only belong to a lovely girl

as the clock struck 1.
Promptly to the minute old May
