Midnight Candidates. (Copyright. 1927. by New York Evening Journal. Inc.) The death of Dr. Xoguelii, ti courageous Japanese scientist, is a ;i-eat loss to the world. Hacked by the Hockefellcr In stitute, Xoctischi was a leader in the wu,r as-'ainst disease, and poverty and misery born ot dis ease. Yellow fever killed him at! last, as he fought for more knowledge in the African yel-j low fever section. j tfoinc bronze bandit on horse- j back should give his place to Noguehi, whose memory really deserves honor. When the steamer Columbus landed at Hremerhafeu on Mon day, eight passengers got into a flying machine and landed in I'crlin seven hours ahead of the past train. And all those pas sengers in a hurry were Ameri can business men. Americans will fly if you give them the op portunity. Kuy the right thing in Amer ica, keep it and you grow rich. For instance, $0000 invested in National City Rank stock 20 years ago is worth $27,000 now. Aud that is a comparatively small iuerease. Fifty dollars invested' in General Motors during the war, when Otto H. Kahn advised friends to buy it, is worth $.", 1)00 now. " ' ' ' "' ' All depends on management, that is to say, on MEN. Invest ment in a good man and a good organization is the safest. Increasing prosperity in creases the number of Ameri can investors. In fifteen years they have grown more than 3, 000 per cent.

If so, do you know the people that invest your money? John D.

WASHINGTON, May 21. (,T) j The senate overrode the president's . veto of the bill to Increase the : night wages of postal employes to-, day by a "Oto-9 vote. The house 1 had already passed the bill over the veto. The measure automatically bo-j came law by the voto. This com-1 pletcd action on tho first ot the 14 vetoes sent to congress by Presi- j dent Coolidgo and the senate then turned to tho otherpostal bill ve- j toed, giving fourth class poatmas-! tcrs allowances on account of rent j and fuel. All of the nlno supporting the -veto were republicans. They were j lilngliam, Connecticut; Curtis, Kun-j sas; Uillctt, Massachusetts; drecne, Vermont; Motcalt, Ilhodo Island; lMiipps, Colorado; Hmool, Utah; I Steiwer, Oregon, and Warren, W'yo- mliiK. I Little llmo was needed for the j seuato to override, tho voto on the bill for allowances to fourth class postmasters, this being enacted into law by a vote of 63 to 1". On the roll call, Fletcher ot Flor ida, Kin.-? of Utah and Overman of North Carolina, democrats, voted with 14 republicans In support of the president. The senate then turned to a third voto message, that on the Od dle bill authorizing 10,500,000 for construction of road-In public, do main and Indian reservation lands. This voto was also overridden. TMc fourth class postmasters' bill provides that after July 1, 1928. Iheso postmasters shall bo paid as allowances for rent, fuel, light and equipment an amount equal to 15 per cent ot tho compensation earn ed in each quarter.

Shipment! of Min nesota, to override the chief execu tive. The republicans voting to sup port the veto were lllngham, llo rah. Curtis, Fess, Glllett, Greene, Metcalf. Norrls. Phipps, Reed of Pennsylvania, Smoot, Warren and Waterman. After overriding presidential ve toes on four bills the senate foiled to muster the two-thirds necessary to pass the Stock bill to establish the grade ot bandmaster in the army. Following this unprecedented at tack on presidential authority, only one voice was raised in defense of Mr. Coolidge and that came Irom Hmrn nf Maryland, a democrat. He thought perhaps the senate was a llttlo too precipitate and that more consideration should he given the chief executive. He added, how ever, that perhaps Ihe president might have been guilty In this re spect. Of the five measures on which the senate acted, the postal bills were first, then the Oddle meas ure, next the Tyson bill and finally the measure of Senator Stock, re publican. Iowa, for the bandmas ters ost. At the time the Stcck measure obtained consideration the senate had apparently tired of dis carding presidential advice and turned that ideco of legislation down, although i voted for it and 32 against it.

CillC.UiO. May 24. (.1) Many prominent agricultural lend era throughout the middle west today expressed disappoint incut and re Bret over the presidential veto of the McNary-Haugen hill, while dairy farmers in Wisconsin ap plauded the president's uctlon. A number of republican candidates for state office decried the veto and some democrats invited the "helpless minority of the republi can party to join" with tho in to obtain "efficient relief." Claude Hv rMucKcmtlu,. I ,of St. I'uul, republican national commit teeman, said: "It lu regrettable the president could not havo signed the bill." Frank W. Murphy, Minnesota member of the resolu tions committee at tho coming na tional republican convention term ed tho president's action "the niont j umazing anu unwarranted orricial act of any president lu the last hnlf century." Fur mora were urged to "arise lln(1 U(scl.t thcr ,ghtn," by Cover nm. Al)llln Ml;MlIen t Ncbnisku. "The time lias come for action by ! the farmers themselves. We cun expect no effective farm legislation from the present administration nor fro many candidate like Hoov er whose only claim for recogni tion is based on his blind adher ence to t lie nnll-atrricultiirc atti tude of the present executive." Dairy farmers from Wisconsin, however, applauded tho veto. J. N. Tlttcmorc, vice president of the Wisconsin Dairy association j ..ir011,,cnt coolldgo's veto was wise. 'So far as Wisconsin Is concerned, the bill was absolutely detrimental to the Interests of the farmer." iJaOEniris GOLDKNDAt.K, Wash.. May 21. (At The collapse of II. A.
