Wow Of the Presidents course.
This business of repndiating plat
form and personal pledges is much
TOO serious to be dismissed offhand.
We have had it here in Vermont and
it has done more to undermine politi-
cal morality than anything else. Party
responsibility is a mighty solemn
thing when you look at it rightly, yet
we have the cynical example OF the
democratic congressman who said
ana the remark is on record-that
our platform was made to get into
Office on-and we have won"
1t is refreshing to know that honest
democrats like Champ Clark, Claude
Kitchin and Oscar Underwood do not
regard their party pledges so lightly,
as witness their protest against the
reversal of their party policy in the
matter OF canal tolls, yet the man they
are supporting has changed front on
practically every question OF public
moment which has come before him.
One day he SAYS there is such a
thing as being "too proud to fight"
tho next he wants something worth
lighting for, that he is willing to
fight" but needs something to put all
the corpuscles of his blood into shout
