I'AUTISAX CRITICS
"Nobody orin snfnk for the legis
lature except ltsflf," Oov. Temple
ton states in reply to stale machine
critics who suddenly find fault with
him for calling a (special election
to elect a successor to Senator
Brandogee,
But upon kin? for the legislature
Is the long suit of the partisan poli
ticians who sit on the sidelines and
pull the strings.
The governor further avers he
"has faith in the people."
In the eyes of his critics, this
statement will be regarded as' ex
treme radicalism.
SPF.CIAL ELECTION IS
BLOW TO MACHIXE
"If I am elected governor of
Connecticut everyone Is to get jua
' tlce and a square deal without re
gard to politics or anything else,"
says Col. Hiram Btngham.
But Gov. Templeton doesn't seem
to be so sure of It, so he called a
special election to elect a successor
to Senator Brandogee, thus deny.
Ing to "If I .Am Elected" Col. Bins
ham the possibility of appointing
the new senator after tha first of.
the year, should he be elected.
The state machine Is quite put
out over Gov. Templeton's action
In calling a special election, thus
(riving the people a chance to choose
their senator.
The state machine hates a sena
torial primary fight. Such a bat
lie appears harder to control than
o'her state contests. Democrats
usually have contested such elec
tions vigorously. They expect to do
the same this year. A special elec
tion, with nothing else politically
except perhaps an electional
deadlock in Washington to dis
tract the attention of citizens will
be a benefit to the Democratic
nominee and a disadvantage to the
Republican nominee. Particularly
will the Republicans .feel this ad
vantage in view of the fact they can
rot nominate a man who already has
the prestige of having been a sena

If the people make up their minds
they want to join the League of
Nations ,thls country will join, ac
cording to the apparent beliefs of
American officials.
Sooner or later we shall find it
necessary to join officially with the
nations composing the League and
quit our anachronic position of be
ing a bystander or a peeping Tom
In connection with the world events
in Which we are as vitally Interested
already as any power belonging to
the league.
It is not a political question,
despite the erstwhile successful ef
forts of politicians to make our at
titude toward the league a political
football.
By our advocacy of the World
Court we in effect are trying to get
Into the League through the back
door so as not to excite the suspi
cions of Americans who' assiduously
have been coached to regard the
League as nullifying ' American
sovereignty if we Join. This hum
bug in time wil lfall of its own
weight, and right and justice and
clear thinking will prevail over po

ELECTED COMMISSIOX
AXD POLITICS
Hiram Bingham opines the Demo
crats of the state are wrong In pro
posing to have the people vote on
the choice of members for the public
utilities commission because the
chairman of the commission a
Democrat.
If the people voted , on the com
mission members, Hiram says, the
chance are that a Republican would
take the pface of the Democrat.
The party complex Is strongly de
veloped in the mind of the Yale pro
fessor. The Democrats of the state,
however, probably are prepared tp
prove to the professor that they
don't care a cent as to the political
beliefs of members of the public
utilities commission.
The utilities commission is not
supposed to be a political organiza
tion; its members are not on the
board because they belong to any
particular party but because they are
supposed to be able to perform the
functions of the board satisfactorily.
The rank and file of citizens in
cluding all Republicans not directly
identified with the state machine
rn dissatisfied with the acts of the
public utilities commission the past
half dozen years.
Candidate Bingham says appoint
ed judges are better than elected
judges, and that as a consequence
appointed commissioners are better
than elected commissioners.
Th) comparison won't "work.
Elected commissioners might err j
occasionally in attempting to make
their findings too popular; but such
a contingency is less to be feared by
the nublic than erring on the side
of making their findings too popu
lar with the transportation com
panies. FLYING TO CHINA OYER

Laws to Protect .Americans
Washington, D. C, Oct. 22. Pro
gress toward tha adjustment of
ponding question between the
United State and the Rumanian
government was Indicated today
when It wa announced that Minister
Jar, who ha been in Washington
some time for conference, would
leave Saturday for hit post at Buch
arest. t
The announcement follow . re
ceipt from Bucharest of assurances
that the new Rumanian mining 'law,
gainst certain phases of which tha
Washington government had pro
tested in behalf ot American mining
and oil concern doing business in
Rumania, would be administered
in such a way as not to handicap
these companies.
Another element of the adjust
ment ha been well advanced
through the making of a snbstantial
payment by Rumania on a large
debt owed to an American company
and formulation of an agreement
with other American company for
satisfactory adjustment of 1 large
claim held by it Tha state depart"
ment has not made public the names
of these companies.
Since Mr. Jay returned to Wash
ington a new note has been sent to
Bucharest, but has not been made
public.
The main objection by American
mining and oil operators to the new
Rumanian mining law was based
on a provision requiring that 61' per
cent of the stook of such companies
must be Rumanian owned and 70
per cent of tha personnel ot th op
erating forces must be Rumanians.
Exception also was taken to certain
drilling regulations and to a plan to
turn over existing pipelines to the
government,
Another pending question between
the two governments has related to
relif credits aggregating J36,0O0,OOO
advanced to Rumania during and
Just after the war, and upon which
there is now duo all of the principal
and $7,000,000 in accrued Interest.
It was because of the seeing Im
possibilities of getting satisfactory
action on any of these troublesome
questions that Mr. Jay returned to
Washington to discuss matters l r
sonally with the stats department.
The announcement that he is going
back is an'lndlcatlon of the success
Of his effort to arouse the Rumanian
foreign office to the seriousness Of
tho situation by withdrawing tem
porarily from his post.

RATED WITH COAL
Standard Oil President Tells
.Company's Stand
Tulsa, Okla., Oct, 22. Gasoline
prices will be regulated by the mar
ket price for coal, Walter C. Teaglei
president of the Standard Oil com
pany of New Jersey, said in a state
ment made public here today. He

Under existing condition gasoline
can be obtained from fuel oil in
many Instances at a cost lower than
It can be obtaftjed from crude petro
leum, Mr. Teagle said. "Fuel oil Is
sold in direct Competition with coal,"
he said. "The reserve of coal are
greater and more certain than re
serves of petroleum and the price
of coal so affects (he price of fuel
Oil that gasoline Is affected in pro
portion. "Whenever gasoline can be ob
tained from fuel oil at a coat'lower
than the natural gasoline In the
crude, t,ho tendency will be toward
a reduction in the available quan
tity of fuel oil and an increase in th
available amount of gasoline. 'A
contraction In the supply of fuel oil
will tend to enhance its value,
whencas an Increase in the quan
tity of gasoline will havc.the re
verse tendency.
"When thereis an over produc
tion of crude la. necessary for the
industry to sell petroleum In the
form Of fuel oil In competition with
eoal and the consumers of gasoline
will participate In the lower- value
so established."
