A THUNDERBOLT GAVEL One' thing that baa not kept pace ..' with the progress of tbe age is the chairman' gavel. The Inadequacy ot this -once potent Instrument has , been 'strikingly evident at the big political ' conventions. In the calm old days, it was doubtless effective to strike with a wooden or ivory mallet on a table or desk or marble slab. The sound Could b heard throughout an or- . djnary assembly room. There was mora respect,' too, in those days, for ibe gavel, as a symbol of authority.-' It was usually enough to ee the chairman going through tbe motions of striking it .. Nov it is about as effective as a shadow gavel on. a moving pic tore audience. The. sound is un heard, on .most occasions when hearing is most necessary. It can not compete , with thousands of cheering, shrieking, singing -and arguing voices, reinforced by brass bands, . automobile horns,' ambmu lanee gongs, fire sirens and all the 'other noise-making paraphernalia of an up-to-date convention. In such an environment there is needed a gavel that will smite the ear wtih the force of a thunderbolt and shock the. crowd to silence. The . chairman should be a modern Jove. And that could be easily managed, with the electrical resources; now available. Let some wizard get busy. . THE SESS OF THE ELDERS - Irrepressible yguth, with all - its faults, finds a champion In Mrs. B, F. Langworthy of Chicago, na tional chairman of recreation and , social standards of - the Parent Teacher Association. - , ' - It wasn't youth, ejie remarks, that jnveniaa me raaio, tne autmoolle, the Jazs band, tile fox trot drinking and gambling. and Back in J850, she adds, people wre talking about the "good old daT' , and bemoaning the rapidity sylth which the young people were going to perdition. Then, in 1872, the elders were harking back to the good old day of 1850, "when youth was well-behaved and modest", and deploring such naughty dances as the watts. Today the prophets of woe are harking back to the good old days of 1872. All ot which make solemn criticism of youth rather ridiculous. , . "It is we. the older people," says Mrs. Langworthy, "Who have made this world an improper place for young people." ' 'v And there 1 something in that. "The American ' people are. on trial before the world," says ' a political orator And in November will they plead guilty ' or not guilty? J , . Really, it isn't. fair for a nomina ting orator to keep the name of his candidate until the end of his last sentence, with all the delegates wondering, "Now, who can he be talking aboutt" One of these time the Republi can campaign manager is going to Blip Oen. Dawes a. quiet bint to start swear log again. . , Rome say Veiuvlus i getting 'ready to erupt again. "We nominate Muiiollni to go and sit on It. ' The farmers who are raising every thing nnw may be able to raise a little money next fall. HUNT'S WASHINGTON LETTER BY HARRY B. HIAT, ' " ' ': XEA Service Writer. NEW YORK, July 8. Political spellbinders for the : campaign of 1924 will bave to develop a new style of oratory. ' " The small-time, second-rate speech- makers that heretofore have - been used to fill in at meetings in the town hall and the village crossroads will no longer play an important part in shaping public though, on the campaign issues. The big figures in state nd na tional politics, who can speak con vincingly and authoritatively, will have vastly increased audiences ana influence. . All this will be due U radio. which will be utilized by all parties to transmit their campaign argu ments, as presented by their big gest spokesmen, to the most remote parts ot the country. But the old style of epread-eagm oratory, delivered in impassioned tones and with much frantic gesti culation, is not good radio oratory. Neither is the long-winded, thinly- spun speech lasting or an hour or more. To hold a radio audience, accord ing to C. B. Popenoe, program di rector ot Station WUZ, political ora tors will have to condense. The speaker who can compress his mes sage into 15 or 20 minutes, present ing it clearly, logically and convinc ingly, will develop a following that will "tune in" on him whenever he is broadcasting. ' The speaker, however, who by indulging fn flowery ..rhetoric 'and pretty perorations, prolongs his speech to longer than half an hour, will be deserted by his audience. - It's one thing to get up and walk out of a hall when you are tired or bored by a speaker, ana quite an other to get off the air if(he fails to interest youi The first 'attracts unpleasant attention, is an obvious discourtesy to the speaker, and eu annoyance to others in the audience. The latter' is accomplished by the simple twisting of a dial, quickly, easily, effectively. Because radio makes it possible to widen the audience ot any given speaker to include the whole country, large radio audiences, Popenoe be lieves, will be Bought ettter even more earegly than large public gatherings. . ' Radio popularization of a few ef fective speakers, together with the occasional nation-wide broadcasting of addresses by the presidential can didate themselves, rather than -the indiscriminate haranguing of hit-and- mis spellbinders who confuse . in stead of clarify the issues, is pro posed as the most promising program for "selling" tbe respective . candi dates "by air." ' With come 10,000,000 radio sets now in American- hornet, every vot er who cares to hear tbe causes of the candidates es presented by them selves or their party's leading spokes men, can do so. uf he hasn t a set in hi own home, some of hi neigh bors will have. Delegates from Inland towns and the arid west spent a lot of time during tbe Democratic convention looking over the "queer fish" to be found in New York. New York has a lot of "queer fish" outside those housed down at the aquarium, but it was the species inhabiting the hlg tanks in the fish bouse down by the Battery that in trlgued tb Interest ot Visitors most, The human sharks and whales of Gotham ran a poor second. Attendants at the aquarium esti mated that jibe dally number ot visitors was doubled by the conven tion crowds. Between 2000 and 3000 convention guests daily, in addition to the normal 2000, crowded In to watch the fish. , The horsodsh piqued the curiosity ot inland delegates most, with blow fieh running a strong second. Poss ibly because they both suggested something political. The blowtisb looks not unlike a windy candidate. And one visitor inquired where he could find the dark horsetlsh! FISH FAIL TO BITE BUT MOSQUITOS DO THEIR PART HEAVY For double aiUon tilting the denizens of the Rogue River district have no equal. . So says Grant M. Raymond, who pursues tile labored words of witnesses in the Klamath county circuit court and Jots them down as the official rec ord of that tribunal. Raymond "went a-flsbing" over the Fourth mid sought tbe wiley steel head in the waters of the river that runs - beyond the hills to the west. He returned yesterday not covered with glory but well decorated . with mosquito erup tions. 1 "I counted OS big bites and 1 small one on my two-arras and once when I clapped my hand to my neck : the same mosquito caught on a knuckle before he flew away," the court reporter declared today. "But how did tbe fish bite?" he was asked. ' For an answer Raymond reached for the nearest inkwell and the Herald reporter is un able to chronicle 1U . reply. . Mosquito bites always moke somo people testy, they say. COMPROMISE PLAN FOR REPARATIONS TO BE CONSIDERED PARIS, July 8. A compromise plan for continuing the reparations commission in control of the Dawes plan will be proposed to Prime Min ister Macdonald, of Great Britain, by Premier Herrlot when the French and 'Brltuh premiers meet this af ternoon. The reparations commis sion .under this arrangement) would decide whether Germany wa in de fault ibut a separate body would be created to determine whether the de fault was voluntary. BONUS BLANKS ARE DISTRIBUTED HERE Application blanks for the fed eral bonus for world war veterans wore distributed at a meeting last night of officials of Klamath Falls post of the American Legion. The post' staff will be on duty again this ev.enlng at ithe headquarters at the court house and all world war veterans who desire to obtain the blanks, Including printed instruc tions for filing out, are asked to call. He (a they' started through a tunnel) This tunnel cost $10,000. She (as they came out) But don't you think It was worth it? l"jV ' You and I HY THE KDITOIt. I HOPE the miscreant who lifted the spare tire from the rear of my auto us it stood peacefully at the-curb In front of the Herald office has been able to dispose of the purloined article with safety and at a figure commensurate with its cost. Now I liked that particular tiro and favored It over the others. It seemed to have more restlency than most tires and once only did It pick up a tack. Of course the valve was a bit leaky and whoever has it had better get the same fixed and avoid grief. The extra Tim wasnt anything to speak ot. One' of the bolt boles is worn. My advVe also is to dis card it. If the fallow who took the tire wants his comb he may come to the Herald office and make his de sire known. Evidently It dropped from his pocket while the task of unloosening the clip was pro ceeding. All I can add Is that the street light at M3ln and Kigbth streets, I not burning on the night of the j theft, has been replaced and assur- ance is given It will gleam con tinually henceforth. YOU may not realize It but the mumps' epidemic has as sumed serious proportions for The Evening Herald. Yesterday three delivery boys came down with swollen glands and three new car riers had to be quickly marshalled to take their places. As a conse quence the delivery service on these routes was poor. Besides this Is va cation time and "boys will be boys". The management of the Herald - I working bard to perfect the carrier service and hopes a marked Im provement will soon be evident despite the mumps. YOU have beard of William a. '"Pussyfoot" Johnson, pro ponent of prohibition. Now "Pussy foot" has a right to hisibellof and ad vocacy of the 18th amendment but VDe houla be careful in some of his statements, so You and l may Keep our perspective balanced. Recently be declared that after six months' of looking about he had seen but three Intoxicated persons in the United States. : Such statements weaken bis position In the oratori cal world. Of course "Pussyfoot" has but one eye and he may have been busy elsewhere with the sin gle optic when he traversed the streets ot some American cities In bis half-year of touring. More need not be said. ' - ..." ; I HAVE an apology to make as editor. Tbe other day, through some hook or crook, tbe name ot Charles Adams, was printed as found guilty ot poiaesslng a still, tin due time notice came from Mr, Adams that It was Roy and not Charles who did so far transgress the law as tn become involved Jn It.
