Mr.. Kerns at the Missouri Republican
convention was turned down.
Mr.. Kerens, in an interview,
said of the prospects of Repub-
lican success in Missouri this
fall: | think that our chances were
excellent. The menace to success is
in the attempt of the A. p. A. to at
tach itself to the Republican party.
We don't want them. Nobody knows
who they are nor how many there are
of them. They are band of fanatics
who deny their own identity. They
are lot of sand-baggers in politics
and my friends and myself want to
know who they are. They belong to
no political party. Their doctrine is
almost the same as that of the Orange
men OF the Dominion of Canada. En-
phatically the party must divorce
itself from the A. P. A. and any other
secret political organization.
