HARRIS HITS At HUGHES

ST. Louis, June 1i.--r is the purpose
of the New York delegation At a meet
ing tomorrow 10 discuss additional ma
terlal for presentation to the resolutions
committee. One thing Is n suggestion
for the creation Of a department. ~ social
welfare. A similar suggestion has come
from the American Federation Of Labor.
which proposes a bureau In the Depart
ment OF Labor TO take social welfare
matters under its especial care.
1t was said his afternoon that the
New York delegation also will consider
methods ~ making moro ins's'cnt its de-
mand that n plank favoring pensions for
civil service employees he written into
the platform.
Chairman Harris has issued tho fol
lowing statement as his comment upon
the most recent declaration OF principles
by Justice Hughes:
Everybody wondered Just what MI.
Hughes meant by the glit,cring generall-
ties OF His statement Of acceptance.
Probably in response tn tho nationwide
demand Tor a bill OF particulars he has
just issued a supplemental statement
and here II IL
my attitude is one of undilutei
Americanism. Anybodyrha supports me
is supporting an out and out American
and All out and out American policy and
nothing else
than before. What In 'undiluted Ameri-
gaIiisfn'7 S,,pa npt ard one N,ayicun
think that the out and out American
policy would have been To- declare war
on Germany. Others whose American
ism Is, in their opinion. equally un-
diluted believe. on the contrary. that We
have treated Germany too harshly.
Some undiluted Americans think that
We ought TO he In the war on the side
Of the Allies. while other undilute,i
Americans believe that We should break
or diplomatic relations with 'irea,
Britain because of her violations OF neu-
trial rights.
Hundreds Of thousands Of undilu,ed
Americans-the majority, | believe
recognize that President Wilson's out
and out policy OF strict neutrality has
carried us through the storm In peace
and honor. II Justice Hughes on the
bench had given out so meaningless and
empty an u%tt'rance on IL question SO
momentous I believe that the very next
day he should have fined himself for
contempt OF court"
