NEWS REVIEW OF
CURRENTEVENTS
Indiana Democratic Solons
Leave State to Prevent
Alleged Gerrymander.
By EDWARD W. PICKARD
Y>EM<>CRATS of the Indiana senate,
taking a leaf from the book of
the Rhode Island Republican senators
of last year, ran away from their capi
tal nnd their state last week to save
their party from what they feared
would be n dangerous gerrymander.
Eighteen of them bolted, nnd fifteen
took refuge in Ohio where. It was as
serted, they were safe from arrest.
Thus the quorum was broken and no
legislntlon was possible.
It nil started with n plan of the Re
publicuus to pass n hill taking Law
rence county from the Third congres
sional district, which is normally
Democratic, nnd adding It to the Sec
ond district, which Is doubtful. As
Lawrence county Is strongly Republic
an this scheme would decrease the
chances of the Democrats for electing
a congressman from the Second dis
trict. So, calling themselves “God's
own minority," they absented them
selves from the senate session. When
tho chief doorkeeper wits sent to ar
rest them they locked themselves in a
hotel room, and Inter, hearing thuj the
militia was to be used in coercing
them, they sought sanctuary outside
the slate. Only three' Democratic sen
ators remained in Indianapolis—one as
a lookout and two who were ill. War
rants were issued for the arrest of 16
of them, but the Ohio authorities sale
they saw no way In which they could
aid the Indiana Republicans. Nothing
like this has happened in Indiana since
1569 when the Democratic minority in
the legislature resigned so that the fif
teenth amendment to the federal Con
stitution could not he taken up for
ratification.
Later in Ilie week some sort of com
promise was arranged and the bolting
senators started back to indiamipolis
A BOUT one hundred women, rei re

of tho world. They are not po'-Hists
not advocates of Immediate dis.ir im
ment. but patriots who believe the Jan
gers of war may be lessened. The
go\emmen’, led by President Coolidge
himself, took a lively interest in the
meeting ami he and other high ofltr-inls
gave the women brief but -n-ippy lec
tures on national defense as a p"aci
insurance. The President talked to
tlmm on rational reduction of arnm
ment. saying:
“About in proper’ion ns (bo natii.n

“Tho American open door principle
has been invoked to help Ameri
can citizens secure oft conoi’sslons.
Wherever we turn, this principle has
been so sm-eessfully combated by the
Imperialistic powers and fought by our
own provincial politicians for tempo
rary partisan ends, that American
rights and interests have been pretty
generally defeated.
“The result Is that the hulk of the
world's oil supply is In Englisii con
trol, and within another generation,
when our own oil pools are drained, as
they are being drained not only by us
but also by England and Japan to
conserve their own oil reserves, your
navy and merchant marine will be at
England's mercy for their fuel. You
will be glad to be allowed to buy your
gasoline at a dollar a gallon.
“One of the primary objectives of
the League of Nations, tinder the lead
ership of England, is to devise some
policy to destroy the American favora
ble balance of trade.
“Serious differences are Imcwing
with England over shipping policies.
These differences can be prevented
from developing into a conflict only by
n strong navy. That America deter
mines to build up a great merchant
mai nie fleet has created against us tho
bitter animosity of the English ship
ping interests.”
Secretaries Hughes, Weeks and Wil
bur declined to bmk up Hie rear ad
