NEW BRUNSWICK, March 18.-
Hot shot was fired with machine-gun-
like rapidity into the Democratic
ranks at the third annual Republican
meeting here last night, which was
attended by prominent G. o. p. men
from all parts of Middlesex, when
Former Judge Robert Il. Carey of
Jersey City, touched Off the opening
gun declaring that the DEM mocratic
party can do nothing just now. IL
is in Europe" Judge Carey contin-
ued: you notice the Democrats are
not holding any dinners. How are
they going to whep the party is in
France? They wouldn't know what
the meeting was for If they did. Upon
the signing of the armistice 1 thought
il was fine thing for President Will
son to go to Europe, but it is not the
function of the President to be the
entire American people"
Quick and fast came the verbal at
tacks from Judge Carey's lips on the
ing that the present conditions OF af-
fairs should be sufficient to prove an
inspiration for the people to support
the Republican party.
The speaker dwelt on the inefi-
cheney of the Democratic party in
handling the affairs since they have
been in office at Washington, he de-
claring that the Republicans would
have been prepared for this emer-
gency if they had been in power and
that the expense of the war would
have been but one-half of what il has
been. Instead of thousands of Amer
lean boys waiting in France for ships
to bring them home, the speaker con-
tinued, every American boy would
l..
publicans are now going into power,
he continued. and they will show
how every cent has been spent during
the last two or three years and bring
to light any graft which might have
taken place.
Not Wilson Admirer
IT am not a Wilson admirer,"
Judge Carey said. Il did not believe
in the attitude taken by him before
we would have been in war two years
before we actually did-when the
Titanic was sunk-and if we had
there would not be 100000 gold stars
in our nations service flag today.
I'VE must not create any false
political issue at this time, however.
One of the problems to be met at this
time is that of the League of Nations.
L don't want 20 see the Republicans
arrayed against il. 1 believe it would
be a fine thing il a compact was
made which would make it forever
unnecessary TO send two million
young Americans TO foreign soil. We
must say what we want and stand for
il. The peace treaty should be one
that will solve the immediate ques-
tions of war and the future progress
and peace of the world"
league OF Nations
Judge Carey went on TO state that
nothing in the League OF Nations
should permit one nation 20 tell an
other nation what 20 do with regards
tariff immigration and other large
ISSUES. A high tribute 10 Theodore
Roosevelt was paid by the speaker
who referred TO him as one who had
fought a game fight and died with
hands clean and heart pure" and ap-
pealed to the Republicans to make
their party a 100 per cent. American
party. just as Roosevelt would have

personal interest in and respect for
the author. During the trying fuel
and iron strike in that state MIR.
King showed wisdom and tact which
earned for him the lasting regard of
the people of Colorado. 1t was he
who devised the plan of settlement
which finally solved the problem.
Thus does one of his western ad-
mirers speak of his book: ITO this
volume Mr.. King has brought q strict
education, a careful exact mind, and
long practical experience as tnvesti-
gator and conciliator in the indus
trial field. He differs from many
writer's in that he has been in con-
tact with worker as well as en-
ployer and has protited by his on
portunities. In other words he Is
