Mr.. McCaskrin, among other things,
said:
You have honored me by asking

Traitors in Public Life.
With this feeble description of the
traitor. let me be concrete. Those OF
you who are engaged in the common
pursuits of life find these traitors in
public Office now and then. One of
the things that public officials are af-
flicted with is this dangerous, insidi-
Gus, human weakness. Some of our
best men, elected with high ambitions
have been stricken with the malady
that has made them traitors against
themselves and against their families
and against their friends and people
While the bride taking public Official
IS bad, the private life traitor is worse.
II it were not for the bride taker and
traitor i'll private life there would be

ever you blame public officials for, re-
member the cunning, secret, hypocrit-
zeal, dishonest. immoral, vicious pri-
vate traitor is the cause of it all.

Arnolds fee from the wrath to come.
Whenever and wherever you find them
avoid them as you would a pesti-
lence. Warn your neighbors against
them. Worse than war, worse than
death itself. IS the punishment these
traitors would inflict upon humanity.
Such traitors as these cause war, IA
mine, pestilence; such men as these
always have and always will resort to
torture and persecution to ruin you.
1t should be the duty of every man to
purge society Of the men who have
caused countless millions to mourn
Remember that mans inhumanity to
man cannot exist without the inhu-
man brute in human form. The man
who would betray you with a kiss will
laugh when you are crucified.''
