MILWAUKEE, May The supreme
council of the American Protective as
ISOLATION which held the last session of
its seventh annual meeting Saturday
night, has taken action to control the
elections in all parts of the coun-
try, not only state and local,
but national. On the recon-
mendation of the committee on
political action the council established
what shall be known as an advisory
board. 1t shall consist of the state
president and one delegate elected
from every state council in the union.
1t is instructed to investigate
the character and the standing of
every aspirant for a political office

order. The members of the order are

The declaration of principles for the
international Protective association

lows:
l. The voice of the people. intelligently and
justly expressed, is the supreme law.
The perfection OF all law Is the recognition
Of the right of local self-government
g. The right of freedom OF conscience of in
teligence, free speech. free press and the
pre- ,ogative of unrestricted private Judgment
is beyond all question.

the definition of its jurisdiction and powers
the state is supreme.

ter claiming temporal dominion or the right to
define the extent OF their own jurisdiction are
inimical to all forms OF constitutional govern
ment and are menace to the perpetuity there

O. The intellectual and moral advancement
OF the world is best expedited by a sound and
fraternal union between all peoples and races
whose civilization is the highest and
whose liberty of conscience IL the most
perfect; and the. welfare OF mankind is
best enhanced and preserved by the con-
tinuance of a lasting peace between all
races and peoples opposed to the efforts of sell
fish and soulless international and universal,
ecclesiastical and financial corporations to
disturb the harmony of universal brotherhood
