SEEN BY JULIUS KAHN

Hon. Julius Kahn, IS years member
OF the House of Representatives from
the state of California, ranking minor
ity leader in the House of the Com
mittee on Military Affairs. said Of
Senator Fall:
Senator Fall was opposed to the
Presidents Mexican policy. and he
vas for carrying out the aggressive
American policy. He, like many other
Senator's and members Of Congress,
could not remain silent when eighteen
American boys were dragged out Of
railroad car in Mexico, lined up
against the side Of the car, shot down
IN cold blood a. II they were dogs.

There is real peace crisis In these
negotiations. The patriotic, 100 per
cent war Americans must see to it
that House and Senate Is chosen
which will not stand for any treaty OF
peace made at . council table where
Germany confers on terms.
As Senator Lodge says. this last
note has come from Hun ministry

The Republican party through its
leader in the Senate is again proving

PANkEv STRONGER MAN
As LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR

Tho death OF Governor De Baca and
the accession OF Governor Lindsey
serves to make it well for the voters
Il the state to scrutinize with ex
treme care the vote they cast this year
on the lieutenant governorship. BY
too many voters that office is regard
cd as unimportant but in seven short
years Of statehood, New Mexico has
seen In ons instance that in selecting
. lieutenant governor, she Is in reality
choosing governor. That expe
rtence should make the voters Of tha
state exercise extreme care on the
sth of November.
The nominations made by the tw'l
parties for lieutenant governor add to
the responsibility of the voter and
the care which he should exercise.
Hon. Ben +. Pankey, the Republican
nominee, was prominently talked OF
for governor and would have made
an excellent chief executive, He was
regarded as "big enough for the job.
AS q member of the constitutional
convention. he voted for safe. sane
conservative constitution. AS mem
Der of the first state Senate, he advO
Gated laws which helped build up the
live stock Interests OF the state and
was a pioneer in the movement for
the adoption OF the secret ballot. He is
big business man and rancher, sound
and reliable. man who, If such con-
tingency developed. would give the
state an efficient administration. The
state would be insuring itself wisely If
Uncle Ben Panltey were elected lieu
tenant governor.
Pankey VS.. Veeder.
The Democrats on the other hand
nominated a man who was regarded
throughout the state as not big enough
for governor when he aspired TO that
position. He was given the place on
the ticket for lieutenant governor on
the discredited theory that the place
was unimportanl and that it would
satisfy Veeder.' Mr.. Veeder at one
time tiled to be the acting governor
Of this state. 1t was during the Ill.
ness of Governor De Baca. Mr.. Veede.
as his legal adviser attempted to
usurp the functions of the governor
and to pass such bills as were pre-
sented by the legislature.
The legislature finally had to take
drastic steps to make sure Veeder was
not playing politics and usurping
powers illegally while his chief was
at deaths door,
The state has had one experience
with Mr.. Veeder. 1t would be mis-
take to chance another.
AS between the conduct Of Mr..
veeder while Governor De Baca was
IN the sanitarium in Santa Fe and his
conduct also in canvassing politically
while the Liberty Loan drive was on
and the splendid record of construc-
tive legislative work, the known hon
esty and integrity and the big finan.
cial interests and high reputation OF
Benjamin F.. Pankey. there is only
one possible safe choice for the peo-
pie of the state to make and that is
to vote for Pankey for lieutenant gov.
ernor November s.
A vote for Pankey is like life in
surance-safe, sensible and worth the
money.

WALTON! RiCHARDsoNI WILL
YOU PLEASE TELL The VOTERS!

! TTesi0ent WILSON'S tnlr0 peace pro
posal. Mr. Walton. proposes to com
nit the United States to . peace
treaty with the allies and with Ger
many and Austria ~ we'll which pro
vidss for absolute free trade after the
war.
You have said. 80 help me God,
that you had always supported every
measure advocated by the President
and that II elected to the United
States Senate. you would continue ia
do 10.
VIII you tell the voters OF the state
! OF New Mexico whether, II you are q
member Of the United States Senate.
you will vote for q treaty establishing
free trade In the United States, in
cluding schedule for FREE WOOL?
WIN you also tell the voters wheth-
or. as member OF the Senate. you
would vote to ratlfy a peace framed
by negotiations aud compromise with
the Germans az opposed to an uncon-
ditional surrender peace?
And You, RichardsonI
You are reported to have once said
in a public speech. Judge Richardson,
that after we had finished the war
with Germany. We would then turn to
and fight England.
VIII you tell the voters of New Mex,
leo whether you made that utterance
and why?
VIII you tell the voters of New
Mexico, Judge Richardson. whether. il
you ar" elected to Congress, after the
treaty OF peace Is signed, you will in
troduce resolution in Congress max
ing declaration OF war on England .
The Carlsbad Current OF October l.
says that ON October ., while the drive
for the fourth Lib ,rty loan was pend
ing) In a speech before the county
convention at Carlsbad, violating the
gentlemen's agreement of all candi-
dates to refrain from politics during
the drive, you started at the head OF
the Republican ticket Offered
some criticism OF Judge Fall -,
pointed out that he had in fact nagged
President Wilson -" that you even
went so far in this reported political
speech as to charge that Senator Fail
was guilty of disloyal utteranccs.' all
in speech which the Current saws
was 80 conclusive it is going to make
votes for the Democratic ticket at the
coming election?"
Did you or did you not Judge Rich
ardson, make a political speech such
as the Current reports while the Lib
erty loan campaign was on?
Did yon or did you not, while put
ting politics thus above patriotism
become the first man in New Mexico
TO attack another candidates Loyalty
and accuse Senator Fall of disloyal
utterances?
The people of this state have ii
RIGHT to know whether the Demo
cratic candidate for Congress is a man
who would make war on England, who
would violate the ethics of patriotism
during the Liberty loan campaign and
then be guilty Of the objectionable at,
tack on the loyalty Of Judge Fall
which the Current charges you made.
But If they are not answered or if
they are true, then it will have no
hesitancy In saying that that course
of conduct and that kind of campaign
against Senator Fall constitute in
themselves ample proof that your cleo
ton to Congress would be a calamity
to the state.
Tell the voters of New Mexico the
truth about this, Judge Richardson.

High School Debate.

In the triangle high school de-
bate last Friday night, Rocking
ham won fromH amletat Rocking
ham, lost to Wadesboro at
Wadesboro, and Wadesboro lost
to Hamlet at Hamlet. In other
words, the home teams won.
| The debate was under the
auspices of the University, and
known as the High School Debat-
ing Union. 300 high schools
participated in the preliminar.
les last Friday night, most of them
in the form Of triangles, each
school having a negative and an
affirmative team. The schools
whose affirmative and negative
teams won are eligible for COM
petition with similar schools at
Chapel Hill April 18th and 18th.
The wedding out process contin-
ues there until on Friday night
of next week the final desision
will be made at Chapal Hill as to
which high school has the best
team.
The subject, Resolved, that
Congress should enact a law
providing for the compulsory
arbitration of industrialdisputes,"
was splendidly argued by the
various teams. Hamlet was rep
resented by Lena Meredith and
Gertrude Irwin, on the negative,
at Rockingham against Anna
Leak Ledbetter and Herbert An
drews. The judges rendered a
unanimous decision in favor of
affirmative or Rockingham team.
Representing Rockingham at
Wadesboro on the negative were
Willie Mae Meacham and Willie
| Williams; the decision there was
that the affirmative or Wadesboro
team, won. Accompanying the
team to Wadesborro were Misses
Dunlap and Finley, and the two
alternates, Charlie McCollum and
Geraldine Smith. All expressed
themselves as appreciative of
the cordial treatment accorded
them by our Wadesboro neigh
bors. The two Wadesboro de-
baters were Annie Lowery and
Pauline Rainwater.
The team that went from
Wadesboro to Hamlet lost, Ham
let having the affirmative.
Thus it seems that inasmuch
as all three towns won, neither
of them is entitled to representa-
ton in the finals at Chapel Hill.
