Convention, So Construed

The selection OF Senator Lodge

is most conclusive evidence that the
extreme OF tht reactionary element
OF the Republican party has abso'
lutte control" said Edward Frens
dorf, OF Hudson. who was In Detroit
Thursday.
IF the Republicans should win In
November, It would mean the old
standpat crowd presiding in every
department OF our government. II
would mean an administration
whose whole purpose would be to
make the monopolies NOR esecure'
ly entrenched than at any previous
period in our history. The people
will have chance TO choose be
tween an administration which has
striven to serve all the people, and
one which would be absolutely die.
tated for the benefit OF the few.
With all the criticism showereo
upon the Wilson administration by
the reactionaries, no one has ever
dared to intimate any favorltism

the other hand. big business has not
been threatened with a big stick
or in anywise hampered in an hon

What do think about the out

citizens will sustain him regardless

BY ROBERT J. BENDER.


(Stdf Correspondent United PreSs.)
CHICAGO. June 8.-The Repub-
lican platform, to be adopted by the
national convention today, in addi.
tion TO taking a strong stand for
out-and-out "Americanism," will de.
clare for navy which will fear no
other power in the world. and for
a standing army OF sufficient size
TO form the nucleus OF an effective
mobile force In case OF war.
The question OF woman's suffrage
had not been disposed OF early to-
day. This plank is to be laid be-
fore the entire resolutions commit
tee before final decision is made.
No prohibition plank will be in.
cluded In the platform. A new pro.
posal for the federal government TO
take over complete regulation OF
transportation, thereby supplanting
the numerous state railway and ser.
vice commissions in their control
over railroads Is recommended by
the subcommittee over which Chair.
man Lodge presided, and may be
adopted.
The United Press learned on high
est authority today that the planks
of the platform are substantially as
follows:
Preparedness
The platform declares for both
military and industrial prepared
ness; larger navy, that will be
able to protect Americas interests
anywhere throughout the world, and
a standing army sufficiently large
not only to protect our borders. but
in case OF war TO form a strong nu'
cleus for national defense; the
state militias to be encouraged in
the training OF a citizen soldiery
(No liberalization OF militia; no
mention OF compulsory military ser.

the government and American in
