I'm HIS OWN NAME AND BY HIS
OWN PROPER AUTHORITY"


It was no accident that led Woodrow
Wilson TO sign the peace treaty
WOODROW WILSON. in his OWL
name and by his own proper author
ity" Instead OF signing IL as PresIden
OF the United States OF America. In
his recent speech making tour he fire.
quenty emphasized his idea that the
league Of nations was greater than tn,
United States. since no thing can Dc
greater than its orator il follows that
Woodrow must consider himself as
greater than the United States.
Acting from his exaggerated ego he has
flouted every law and every proyi 2
ion Of the constitution which present
I'd any barrier to his ambitions for
personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT
From his own example as law
breaker and his attitude toward all
other Ia wbreakers IN the United
States he has certainly succeeded
N developing the criminal forces Of
the country until il is beyond his
weak ability 10 control H. even IL he
had desire 10 do 50. The criminal
forces OF the land are his masters to
day. They dictate his policies. They
flout his courts and laugh at the Off
GERS who attempt TO control them.
few years ago the city of Hutch
inson. Kansas. was under the domina-
ton OF band OF thugs and criminals.
They controlled the activities OF the
city. The police department and the
newspapers were either in league with
The thugs or were afraid of them
on certain occasion the leader of the
thugs committed an assault upon "A
citizen OF the city. shortly after the
preliminary rearing. while the thug
was out on bail. young man who
WAS the chief witness against the thug
passed the thug ana a policeman talk !
ing together az a street corner. When |
ihc young man had proceeded a short /
distance hc WAS oVcrtalten by the po- l
hceman who suid 20 him. THAT man
was ialidn with as you passed as n 7
moment ago is a bad man and nc told /
me he ras going 20 kill YOU so J have I
come TO scgrt YOU back TO your room
ln order - save your lifc for he Is
very dangerous man and your life rs
|n danger from him" The young man
elusfd lo hc escorted" 10 his room
under fhe tances and the poe
lice guve him Wllsoniau solemn
warming win the udmonition that II
he young man got hurt after that II
was his own fault Why did not the
policeman arrest the thug when tho
iteaf was INSIDE Tho police depart

& Woodrow and his officials as spc-
'iai fsvoritca. In every Instance the
lecent law abiding loyal citizens who
ave been the victims of the thugs
nd criminals are the ones who are
FINISHED by Wilson. Whenever the
sw has raised It's arm to punish one !
4 these criminals Wilson has reached .
ut his protection ana paralzed the
rm Of the law until the criminal,
lasses consider our laws Joke. And
ghy not? II the President "in his !
wn name and by his own proper aur- !
horlty" flouts the law and tramples
under his feet whenever Il inter
ercs with his desires and activities.
Thy should not any other law breaker
ave the same privilege? The laws
gainst murder and sedition and trea- :
On and burglary are no more manda- /,
lry IN their nature than are the laws
csigncd 10 control the activities of
ar chosen officials. Had not the Cen y
'ailia murderers as good n right to

Flison?. Did not Mooney warn the 4
tixens of Sanf'rancisco not to pa u

cause Woodrow Wilson wills IL to be
