COMMON SENSE TALK

Thomas A. Edison talks with the
frankness of scientist whose views
are based on the solid ground of es-
tablished facts; therefore he is to be
regarded as unbiased by adherence to
any particular economic or political
theory. His independence of thought
gives special significance to what he
says regarding possibilities OF indus
trial and other development in this
country. For instance, discussing the
dyestuff situation Mr.. Edison made
this statement: Eve can make dyes
here just as well as they can make
dyes anywhere else. But the manu-
facturers need protection. Capital
will not go into the manufacture Of
dyes without some assurance that for
eign competition will not be permit
ted to wipe out the industry when the
war is over.

PROTECTION FOR
ALL AMERICANS

BALTIMORE, Oct. 11.-Speaking
last night before an immense and
most enthusiastic audience in the
great armOry in which Woodrow Will
son first was nominated for the
Presidency, Charles Evans Hughes
came out squarely as to what he
would do relative to Mexico, If elected
TO the Chief Magistracy.
Il have been asked" he said, ito
say what ] would do in respect to
Mexico, if / am elected President.
Now. no man on earth can tell what
sort of mess we will find in Mexico
next March. But / will say this:
There are certain principles that we
can lay down, to which we propose
to adhere. They are important, not
only with respect to Mexico, but to
Latin America, to all nations. If en-
trusted with executive responsibility
I propose to adhere to hem.
The first principle is that we
will not NEEDLE with things that
do not concern us.
The second is that we will not
merely talk about the rights of
small States, but we will observe
them.
The third is that it shall be
understood that at all events the
lives and property of American
citizens will be protected through
out the world.
The audience cheered. Mr.. Hughes
assailed the Administration for the
enactment Of the AdamsOn law
They told us four years ago, in
eloquent pharse,' he said, "of the
new freedom, but recently, after sur
rendering TO the demand Of force for
legislation before investigation of the
facts. they have introduced us to the
new slavery"
Replies to DIR. Eliot.
Also Mr.. Hughes replied to publish
ed statements of DR.. Charles W. Eliot,
president emeritus of Harvard. en-
dorsing the Presidents policy.
'Dr. Eliot pierces the heart Of the
matter" Mr.. Hughes said. land he
finds that the record of the admins
tration means this: No Intervention

soil American commercial and manu-
featuring adventures who. of their
own free will, have invested their
money or risked their lives in foreign
parts under alien jurisdiction
aThink of the Import"
