Need More Politics,
Says Chairman Hays

New York, Dec. 2S.-In issuing his
call for a lovefeast meeting of the
Republican National Committee,
Chairman Will H. Hays says:
What we need in this country is
not less politics. but more attention
to politics. If the citizens of the
counry perform a citizens duty and
interest themselves sufficiently in the
politics of the nation, the right prin-
cipIes will be practiced and able and
conscientious candidates elected.
"It seems passing strange, indeed,
that it should be necessary to urge
men in this country to exercise the
full privilege of real liberty. Yet
such is the case,' because they
imagine they are either too busy or
too good to take part in politics. /
have no use for the man who is eth
er too busy or too proud to interest
himself in politics. II is riding an
another's ticket.
What I urge above all things else
is the fullest participation of our
splendid citizenship in the actual
politics of the country. Let this be so
and any evils that may exist or which
may hereafter arise, will be short
lived, indeed"

Orient in adjoining states have

people to the plea for clothing issued

VOTE FOR EFFICIENCY

The present campaign in Iowa is
unique in many of It's features, Lot the
least OF which is the absence OF poiiti-
cal speech making and OF widespread
interest in the state ticket, saws the
Ottumwa Courier.
The nature OF the important tasks
assigned to the judges OF the. supreme
court precluded their active participa.
ton in campaigns even before the
nonpartisan judiciary law was enacted
With that measure in force the aver
age voter finds himself more al loss
than ever TO decide on whom h. should
support for supreme justices.
The supreme court rules quietly.
It's members seldom are politicians;
seldom do they seek publicity. Their
duties are heavy and Of the highest
importance. The highest type OF legal
ability should be chosen by the voters
AS meSsure of self protection. for
in the province OF the supreme court
lies the security of the very titles TO
our property and many of our dearest
rights as citizens.
For these reasons IL is OF vital i'm
