SPECTACULAR RACE
FOR MAYOR IN CHICAGO
Winds Up Tonight With Windy City
In Furore, With Six Candidates
and Many Issues.
(By Associated Press)

Chocago, March 31-One of the
most spectacular mayoralty cam
paigns in Ghicago's political history
will come to a close tonight. Because
of the somewhat tangled situation,
political observers and party leaders
were hazarding no guesses as to the
probable outcome of tomorrow's cleo
ton.
Mayor William Hale Thompson, re-
publican, and Robert M. Sweitzef3
democrat, opposed each other four
years ago when Thompson won by a
plurality of 14s,OO0, have been fight
ing the battle over again.
This year, however, the campaign
has been made more interesting by
the entrance of Maclay Hoyne, demo-
cratic state attorney, as an independ-
ent candidate by petitions.
| The situation is further complicated
by John Fitzpatrick, president of the
Chicago Federation of Labor, who is
entered as the candidate of the recent
ly organized Chicago Labor Party.
The other candidates are John M. Col
Inns, socialist, and Adolph S. Carm,
socialist labor.
With a total registration of nearly
795,977 men and women it is certain
that the vote will be the largest ever
cast at mayoralty election.
For several weeks the "loop" has
been bedlam of political noise. Ev-
Iery vote-getting device known to
modern political campaigns has been
used. The candidates have held daily
meetings at noon in downtown thea
tres, and meetings at industrial plants
during the morning and afternoon. At
night scores of meetings have been
held in all parts of the city. A strik-
ing feature has been the large number
of women present at these meetings.

 Mir Wilson called attention to the fact that while the government, through the authority of the food administration, had permitted a return of an average of g per cent on invested capital in controlled products, his company made profit ot only 6.70 per cent on those items.

REED ASKS JEWS OF. AMERICA ID OPPOSE. LEAGUE OF NATIONS.
Human Nature Does Not Change, and Nations Will Always Fight" States
 the Senator
By Associated Press

Washington, March 9.-Senator Reed of Missouri. speaking here today at a meeting held under the auspices of the Jewish Welfare board, reiterated his opposition to the proposed constitution of the league of nations and called upon Jews of America to oppose the league plan.
 "We need not be afraid to express our opinion" said Senator Reed. we have been forbidden to talk and even to think. but 1t is time to speak out when the safety and security of this nation is in jeopardy. I say nothing against President Wilson, but l take as my guide George Washington and Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Ham, ilton. I will consent at any time to take the word of Alexander Hamilton against that of George Greet, or the word of Thomas Jefferson against that of Colonel House.
 "It is important that the American nation take this matter in hand and think it over very seriously. For 143 years this nation has carried on it's business on a basis of constitution framed by the fathers, who, in thelr day, were the wisest men. Thomas Jefferson. Alexander Hamilton, George Washington, and by their brains ana ldDOfS eStaDllSned mOuei IcpupiiS' We have grown great and large, all the nations of Europe have found haven of refuge with us. The Monroe doc Urine has kept out the nations of Eu- rope from interfering with the inter- nal affairs in this country.
 Those who maintain that the pres ent constitution of the league of na- tons does not overthrow the tradi- tional American policy of the Monroe doctrine do not know what they are talking about. Let them examine that document and they will see that it pro- vides for two things-first that Flu rope must keep it's hands off from the American continent, and second, that the United States also keep out from European affairs Think of the time when during the civil war tinsel king was set up by France upon a tinsel throne of Mexico, and it was only when the returning American soldiers from the civil war had turned their faces toward Mexico that Maximillian left the shores of this country. Such an affair may take place again The American public must be warned and forewarned. Think of the Venezuelan affair, when Grover Cleye- land had to call the attention of Eng land to the existence of the Monroe doctrine.
 Human nature does not change Ma tions will always fight. No nation is perfect. Evidences and causes of dis agreement will always occur

 with Apologies to Cohgress.) You can strip him of his chevrons, You can take his stripes away, And the badge of his division, Which produces your dismay. You can make him scrap his medals; But no matter how you try, You can never legislate That glitter from his eye. He has seen a summer day That you have never dreamed, He has seen flesh turned to clay = While affronted heaven screamed, He has seen the shattered trench, He has seen the twisted wire. He has seen strong living men Charred and black in molten fire, He has seen beneath his feet Flesh of comrades turn to clay, As you never could have dreamed What he saw that summer day. You can ban the golden Rainbow That is stitched on his left sleeve, You can eradicate distinction" With simple by your leave, You can publish resolutions, And hurl the ink until you die, But you can't legislate That glitter from his eye. He has known a summer night That you could never bear, With hell's flare his only light, Pointing out helrs angel there. He has known single hour When cold steel, red hail and gas. Ceased and left holy calm, ,. Such as comes when angels pass, He has seen his comrades stand, Half transfigured iE release, Knighted, spurred and panopied By his leige, the Prince of Peace.
