OPPOSITION EXISTS TO
LEAGUE OF NATIONS IN

in the east was something terrible,
and the day we came through Kansas
we almost suffocated. 1t is a relief
to get back here and enjoy the de-
lghtful climate again"
Asked regarding the attitude of the
people with whom he came in con
tact toward the league of nations, Mr..
Craig said that on trains and else
where he talked with a good many
persons both republicans and demo-
Gratis, and some whose political affil-

We're unreservedly in favor of a league
or organization of some kind to pre-
vent wars in the future he said, but
We're afraid the plan as now proposed
would have the opposite effect and
plunge the United States into war. The
sentiment as he interpreted it from
conversing with persons he met in his
travels was against ratifying the
league covenant as it is now drawn.
President Wilson, even among the
members of his own party is not as
strong ass he was several months ago
There was very little talk about re-
publican presidential possibilities, Mr..
Craig said, except that Major Genera!
Leonard Woods name was frequently
mentioned, while in Illinois Governor
Frank o. Lowden has considerable
strength.

Those who demand high speed know
the Super-Six will meet any situation.
We have entirely withdrawn from rae
ing, but every important racing con-

The Super-Six is their choice of car be-

The town motorist prefers the new
Hudson Super-SiX because of it's fexi-
bility. It's power range eliminates the
necessity for much gear shifting. Traf-
fic congestion is avoided because of the
way the Super-Six can take advantage
of every opening. Note how Hudsons
without the speed limits slip in ahead
of less flexible cars.
And those, too, who choose cars be-
cause of beauty and dignity, because
they reflect good taste as we'll as util-
