you had been member of the United
States Senate this would have beer
the standard by which you would
have been governed. AS for myself.
however, | desire for you to know
that | am not governed by any such
policy or motive. My action in voting
for or against any measure in the
United States Senate is based upon
the government policy and the prin-
ciples involved, and this as what
actuated me in taking the stand that
] did in regard to the reservations
and proposed measures of ratification
pertaining to the League of Nations.
| If | based my vote upon my feelings
OF favoritism toward certain senator's
or my unfavorable sentiments iowa I'd
certain others, | am sure that
would be very often going adrift as
far as the interest of the American
people Of my state Is concerned. The

whether or not | have voted to sus
tain the public welfare OF America

about q reduction Of armament and
the worlds peace.
Most respectfully,
PARK TRAMMELL. !,

1t will be seen that Senator Tram
nell says that from oral expressions
and large number of letters re-
ceived from different sections OF Flor
ida. he finds that the editor OF the
Banner is not in harmony with the
sentiment which prevails in this state.
Senator Hardwick Of Georgia
thought as Senator Trammell thinks;
Senator Vardaman of Mississippi was
easily deceived with the same idea.
Both know better now
We say it not in harshness but In
candor that if Senator Trammell con-
tinues to affiliate with Reed, Gore and
those who consorted with Hardwick
and Vardaman Gall implaceable enc.
mics OF the administration he will
find himself keeping company with
them after the senatorial election in
1929.
If the senator will pardon us, may
we ask how he got those letters so
great in number from so many sec
tons of the state as to cause him for
a moment to believe that the senti-
ment of Florida is back Of him in his
joining the Reed and Gore crowd, and
in doing so giving encouragement to
Lodge, Borah and other administra-
ton haters, anud yet failed to get the
open letter. addressed to him by the
editor OF this paper!
He was absent from his post IN
Washington but short time, so how
did his host of admirers in all parts
of Florida know that he was going to
spend his short vacation in Tampa.

pie of Florida.
