Authority Is today. The corruption in
lcircles, high and low, financial. po-
litical, everyway, a disguised the
people and they are desirious Of a
change in administration.
The New York Post describes the
Idegeneracy reached by the Republican
party as follows:
The present is a period of havoc
and upheaval. The gale of reform
that ranges DER the LAID lays lar e
most hideous conditions. A dollariZed
siciety, insensible to all but pricking
i~selfshness makes possible corruption
high and low. Bride, graft, knavery,
exploitation, investigation, disclosure,
confusion, shame, in all venue of
activity the public ferret is at work"
The Post gives a pretty good word
picture Of the corrupt state of af-
fairs under the present National ad-
ministration and its description is
not Overdrawn. Rather the contrary.
Our people are disguised and sick
ened with the present state of affairs.
