STRONGER GOVERNMENT THE THING MOST NEEDED HENRY L. STIMSoNs ADVOCACY OF NEW NATIoNALIsM. The Time Has Come When the peo- pie Need Executive Pro-

Cleveland, Jan. 2S.-The chief speak CT at the annual Mckinley Day ban quet of the Tippecanoe club tonight was Henry L. Stimson. the defeated republican candidate for governor of on Some Phases of the Progressive Movement in the Republican Party"
 Mir. StimsOn said the true line of progress is to aim to perfect and strengthen our representative system of government through the state ex- ecutive, rather than to weaken 1t or abandon it for another
 For more than a decade" said Mir StimsOn. the republican party has been in power in the nation and in most of the states. Its control is be- ing seriously challenged by its op- pOnents l am one who believes that this crisis of its future success and usefulness depends upon it's becoming more and more clearly identified with this progressive movement
 So long as the nation remained young and hopeful. so long as our problems were simple. we could scrape along even with happy o-lucky in- efficiency.
 But this condition of national sim plicity remains no longer Side by side with our helpless officialdom has grown the tremendous structure of modern incorporated business One re- suit of this growth of the power and wealth of business has been a com plete change of the attitude of the private citizen toward the executive Instead of regarding it as the possi- ble tyrant as Jeffedson did. We now look to executive action to protect in dividual citizens against the oppres- sion of this unofficial power Of busi- ness. It is not the people who are in danger from a strong state govern ment. it is the government itself that is in danger from private influences.
