HADLEYS PLEA IS EDUCATE PEOPLE President of Yale Makes Address at Golden Jubilee of Univer sity of California FEW QUESTIONS FOR EXPERTS Desire for Efficiency May Cause Dry Rot in Governmental Affairs r Associated Press] HERKELEY, May 17.—"The large combinations of capital are not In any true sense the cause of our difficul ties or dangers today," declared Presi dent Hadley of Tale today In an ad dress at tho golden Jubilee of the Uni versity of California. Dr. Hadley's subject was ".'.n Educated Democ racy," and the address was delivered In the Green tneater before a large gath ering of students, alumni and distin guished guests. The educator pointed out that the government has the two distinct problems of social order and business administration to deal with. The first, he said, are matters on which the people as a body can and must Inform themselves If the law 1b to have behind It the necessary consensus of public opinion that will give It force. "But there Is by contrast," he con tinued, "another equally large and Im portant group of questions which I have called administrative ones, on which only a small part of the voters can possibly Inform themselves intel ligently. SOME QUESTIONS "Such, for Instance, are questions of taxation, of banking and currency, of railroad management and of corporate organization. These are matters which must In the very nature of things be treated by specialists If they aro to be dealt with In a wise and far-sighted manner. It Is this vast mass of varied business to be done which constitutes the chief danger to modern democratic government. The people under existing conditions are brought face to face with a difficult alternative. "If, In the desire to secure efficiency, they leave the business of government to the experts, democracy dins of dry rot. If, In the desire to maintain the old democratic conditions, they try to do everything themselves*, it results sometimes In Inefficient business, sometimes In violence and anarchy. "It ll commonly said that weftUh, and particularly concentrated jvoalth, Is fatal to democracy. This Is, I am convinced, a very inadequate concep tion ether of the source of danger or of the task and duty which lie be fore those who would prevent It. CONDITION'S OVTOBOWM "The large combinations of capital are not In any true sense tho cause of our dungers and difficulties today. They are symptoms rather than causes —indications that population has become so large and society so complex that their needs have outgrown tho framework which sufficed for the older and simpler conditions. Under these circumstances. It Is absolutely neces sary to separate the problems of the people from the problems of tho ex perts and manage each group In its own proper way. "The thing that makes tho political Situation BerlOUS at the present day Is that a number of public question* have come Into the foreground of a kind not exactly foreseen by the fram ers of the constitution; questions where we need the evidence of special ists, and where the particular special ists who occupy our judicial offices, however great their learning and high their character, have not always the specific training which will qualify them to decide these questions wisely. "We must," he said in conclusion, "educate the people up to the pojnt where they will be content to leave gome things to specialists." LITTLE SUFFERER FROM ECZEMA m Grew Worse in Spite of Six Months of Ablest Treatment—Sleep Ter ribly Broken —Face, Head and Hands Masses of Dreadful Humor. » A SINGLE SET OF CUTICURA CURED HIM "I feel it my duty to let you know with what success I have used the Cuti »oura Remedies. When our baby was seven weeks old he broke out with what we thought was heat but which gradually g;rew worse. We called in a doctor. He said it was eczema and from that time we doctored six months with three of the best doctors in Atchison but he only got worse. His face, head and hands were a solid sore. There was no end to the suffering for him. We had to tie his little >—J>—' hands to keep him from scratching. He never knew what it was to sleep well from the time he took the disease until he was cured. He kept us awake all hours in the night and his health wasn't what you would call good. We tried everything but the right thing. Finally I got a set of ths Cuticura Remedies and am pleased to say we did not use,, all of them until he was cured. We have waited a year and a half to tee if it would return but it never has and to-day his skin is clear and fair as it possibly could be. I hope Cuticura may save some one else's little one's suffering and altto their pocket-books.

DOES BEEF GIVE MORE ENERGY THAN CABBAGE? Uncle Sam Puts Man in a Glass Cage to Determine the Question WASHINGTON, May 17.—T0 deter mine whether roast beef produces more energy in the human body than cab bage, whether baked beans In this re spect surpass potatoes, and so on through a long list of foods, the de partment of agriculture is conducting a series of novel experiments. The instrumentality being employed is a machine called a caloimeter, and a human being who submits to the "torture" of being fed and sitting In a glass cage while the food energy is recorded. Around the inside of the calorimeter, Which is a glass, air-tight compart ment, about the size of a small steamer stateroom, runs a system of pipes filled with cold wator. The tempera ture of the wuter is carefully noted, the heat generated by the body in the proceM of assimilating the food caus ing the water to become warmer. (inly line kind of food is given to tho subject at a time. One experiment re quires several hours, or sometimes longer, according to tho time required to digest the food. The experiments so far have been to determine the relative heat-produc ing energy of fatty and starchy foods. Several months will be occupied in making the tests.

PREPARE TO WEED OUT CANDIDATES Democratic Committees Selected to Pass on Desirability of Men for Office THREE CHECKS ON NAMES Careful Process of Elimination In sures Indorsement of a Strong Ticket Charles Wellborn, chairman of the committee appointed by the Demo cratic county conference to select com mittees from the assembly and sena torial districts and a general commit tee of fifteen from the county at large, which committees in turn will decide on the desirability of the various can didates In the field for county offices, yesterday announced the personnel of these committees. Tho work of the senatorial nnrl ns aembly district committees will be to ascertain and report to the general committee the names of all candidates for nominations at the pending pri mary election, and the general com mittee will then go over the list care fully and indorse one of more of the beat men available for the various of fices. The general committee will endeavor to (jet the. best possible man for each office, such as will meet with the approval of the good government forces of the county and will eliminate any candidate who has been identified with the "machine," or who, for other good reasons, la not deemed a deslr ablp candidate. This process of elimination, It Is ex pected, will result In the formation of the strongest and best ticket ever put up by the Los Angeles county Democ racy, and while there may be a num ber of candidates, known as good Dem ocrats, who will be disappointed at their failure to receive the Indorsement of the general committee, It Is believed by the members of the Democratic county central committee that none can reasonably object to the process and will abide by the decision of the com mittee and of the conference In the Indorsement of the candidates and unite In a solid support of the men Indorsed. CONFERENCE TTSAJj JUDGE Following the report of the general committee, which will be made to the county conference when It reconvenes at Long Beach auditorium. May 28, the conference will go over the list of candidates submitted by the general committee, and others will be further eliminated so that the conference will finally indorse one man for each of fice. This done, the county central committee will probably open head quarters downtown and take charge of the petitions of the various candidates, relieving them of the responsibility and arduous work of circulating these pe titions. All Democratic registered vot ers can then call at the new head quarters and sign petitions. Until the conference has passed on the candidates and the seal of approval has been placed on them, It Is urged that voters refrain from signing any petition, so that no mistakes will be made, as a voter can sign a petition for but one man for each office. The committees appointed yesterday are as follows: Assembly district No. 67—Kd Goode, Glendale; D. F. Byron, Ivanhoe; Dr. Z. T. Malaby, Pasadena. Assembly district No. 68—C. E. Olover, chairman. Azusa; Walter Wood, Whittler; J. A. Montgomery, Rivera. Assembly district No. 69— R. M. Lusk, chairman, Los Angeles: David Ful wlder, Los Angeles; G. M. Spicer, Long Beach.

HOW CANDIDATES ENTER Persons desiring to become candi dates for any county office are re quested to make their application or turn their names in to any one of the members of the committee in their dis trict, or to any member of the general committee, preferably to the chairman of the committee, whether it be tho assembly, senatorial or general com mittee; but if the candidate cannot find the chairman of the committee, his application can be taken by any other member, and will be referred by him to the general committee, and by the general committee to the county con ference, which will reconvene in the auditorium at Long Beach May 28. So far there are very few offices for which there is more than one candi date, and where more than one can didate '.s in the field for the same of fice the general committee will en deavor to affect an amicable adjust ment and indorse but one candidate. If, however, the committee falls to agree on a candidate, and two or more candidates are deemed equally desir able for the same office, the committee will bo report, and the conference will be called on to decide which of the candidates shall be singled out for the race.

Secretary John P. Murphy of the state central committee writes to the Los Angeles organization that pros pects in the north were never more encouraging, and says that Theodore A. Bell, Democratic candidate for governor, has gained such headway that in many northern sections his elective strength already is conceded by the Republicans. - Theodore Bell, himself, in a letter to Chairman Norton, says: , "The pros pects this campaign are much brighter than when I made the race before, al though I came close to victory then. I find all over the state a remarkably strong sentiment in favor of Democ racy and against the disrupted Re publican organization which, having failed in state as well as in national affairs, to fulfill its promises, has bartered and lost the confidence of the voters. TMese voters, who can no longer be hoodwinked, refuse longer to trust in a set of men who have violated every obligation, and they are looking to the Democracy, and not to any faction of Republicanism, to give them what they want— clean, honest, clear cut, conscientious administration of, for and by the people. "Have no fear for the state's Democ racy—there is no question but that we will score a tremendous victory." if +-— HINDU RAJAH'S DEATH VEILED IN MYSTERY Letter Found in C. S.
