.srhe confidence consequent upon such
n victory will have a most salutary e1-
feet on Industrial, social, business ana
economic conditions everywhere, Tor
everywhere men and women know thai
with complete Republican success Will
come the necessary forward stepping pro-
gramme for labor, for business, for the
farmer. for the soldier, for all.
"Under this wise guidance, the lapor
of the country is entitled to and Will re-
ceive fair representation in all the coun-
cils of the nation. We will have just
remedial legislation for the .betterment
of this important group Of our population
at all times, not only because 1t Is their
due. but because by justice always we
can prevent the insidious influence OF the
criminal elements of the I. W. W. from
taking hold in the ranks of real labor.
vigorous and thorough shall be our
efforts to make certain for the business
Of the country that opportunity and en-
couragement which will insure its devel-
oprnent and growth upon which the pros
perity Of the country depends. In the
great readjustment ahead, business must
have sympathetic help. not antagonistc
curtailment.
Law Must BE Supreme.
There Is a time not far distant when
our heel must be In the ground. Law
and order shall reign in this country.
I'VE will not forget that while We
fought to make certain the rights of free
government in the world, We have a re-
public to preserve in this country. and
that we are representative Government
not Bolshevik eyncopation.
1.-THE Republican party from its incep-
ton has stood against liberalization Of
4,,A a., ri apd activities THhara must ha
strong Federal regulation. but not Fed
eral ownership. We have always en-
deavored, and still shall endeavor, to
find the middle ground 30 we'll defined as
between the anarchy Of unregulated in
dividualism and the deadening Journalism
Of inefficient and widespread State own
srship.'
1--WE arc against autocracy as vigor-
ously and unalterably as we are against
anarchy. BolsfDvism and Kaiserism
are equally dangerous in industry as in
governmeht. We are against both. We
are the freest Government on the face
Of the earth, and our strength rests In
our patriotism. Anarchy fees before
patriotism. Peace and order and secur-
ity and liberty are safe so long as
enough love OF country burns In tho
hearts Of the people, but Il must not be
forgotten that liberty to make our laws
does not mean license.
Check on Expenditurea
There is a duty, and great duty,
ahead for our party in taking hold OF
the situation In washington in the inter-
ests OF economy. II Is time to put I'D a
sign. Stop. Look and Listenp on the
matter Of expenditures

nation. We do not begrudge one cent OF
The necessary war expenditures, but we
require efficiency and We demand econ
ony.
I'VE shall enact q law providing for a
budget system for the country's own
guinness. method which should have
been adopted long ago, and It is inter-
esting to note that in the last message
OF the Chief Executive to Congress- he
entirely omits any mention of the desir-
ability of budget system. We shall
enact legislation for the development OF
trade, the Improvement OF our diplo-
matte service, the solution of our ship
ping problem. that we may have a msr-
chant marine adequate to meet the de-
velopment Of world trade. the develop

relations and other innumefable prob
lems. all incident to the readJustment
which is Imminent.

I'VE have always believed we should
Ave and let live This IL not enough I;
we must and shall live and help live.
What a mission, what a work. Is ahead
for the manhood of this organization
Never has It been found wanting. and
Il shall not fail now.
