Universal Service

LINCOLN. Neb., Feb. 23.-Toward
the end of the World War Americans
drafted in July were Killed in Septem-
Der without having learned to handle
their rifles, Major General Leonard
Wood said in an address here to-day
before the Wood-for-P President Club.
Nebraska supporters have entered Gen
eral Woods name in the Republican
Presidential preference primary to be
held April 20.
"Such things arc what we are trying
to prevent through universal military
training" the speaker continued.
He declared a popular conception
that universal military training meant
compulsory training in militarism to
be erroneous.
In another address General Wood
outlined the problems facing America
He urged:
Avoidance of class legislation, pre-
vention of an autocracy Of either wealth
or labor, establishment of industrial
justice, freedom OF business from ex
ces profits tax, maintenance Of good
army and an ever-ready navy, deve op-
mcnt of a strong, conservative foreign
policy and adequate pay for teachers.

$1, 500 Contribution Told
Of at Newberry Trial
Letters Alleged to Relate to Sub
scriptions for ''Harvey's
Weekly" Barred

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Feb. %
The government won and lost to-day in
attempts to introduce testimony re-
lating to Senator Truman H. New
bcrry's association with others of the
1872 men on trial with him in the United
States District Court on charges of
conspiracy to violate the Federal cleo
tions and mail fraud laws.
At the end of the morning session
Frank E. Daley succeeded in bringing
before the jury the fact that the chief
defendant had contributed 81 500 to the
state central committee Of the Repub-
lican committee. At the close of the
afternoon proceedings he was balked in
an effort to introduce letters relating
to lat subscriptions to "Harvey's
Weekly"
The barred exhibits were offered
through George M. Gottfried, business
manager of "The North American Re-
view," and "Harvey's Weekly" who
came here to identify the correspond
ence. There were letters from Senator
Newberry and the publishing company
about the yearly subscription price, and
finally an order from the Senator for
LAT subscriptions "to friends in Mich
igan." This list included sevcnty-two
Of the defendants.
Judge Sessions upheld the plea of
Martin W. Littleton for the defense
that the correspondence came outside
the limits of the alleged conspiracy

Republican Victory in

Johnson Bolt Plan Denied

Representative Norman J. Could and
Colonel Thomas w. Miller, the East
ern manager and assistant manager
of the Wood for P res dent campaign
had call yesterday from Texas
Republican who has been canvassing
Texas and Louisiana in the interest
of General Wood, who brought con-
flrmatory news of the steady drift Of
in the states of Texas and Louisiana.
The visitor said that if the Wood
canvass is properly handled in those
states the delegates to the Chicago
convenlon, with one or two exceptions,
will be for Wood, and that the general
will carry both states in November.
Substantially the same sort of infor-
nation Is coming from Kentucky and
North Carolina, where the Republicans
even chance to win. The vigorous
action of Governor Morrow of Ken
tucky in checking the 'ynching mob
has strengthened him with the order
loving citizens all over the state,
atng only those who are identified
with the Democratic organization.
General Wood is scheduled to speak
to- day in Yankton, s. D., in LcnoX,
Canton and Sioux Falls tomorrow and
in Dell Rapids, also in South Dakota
Thursday. On Friday he will speak
in Jackson, Mich, and will be back in
Chicago on Saturday.
for Senator Hiram w. Johnson, said
yesterday at the Hotel Pennsylvania
that all talk about Johnson heading a
bolt from the Chicago convention if
he is not nominated is utterly without
foundation and not circulated by the
friends of Senator Johnson.
mo matter who wins at Chicago,
whether W Wood, Lowden, Harding or
some other, Senator johnson as a good
Republican will support the nominee -
said Mr. Mcsween "If the Republi-
cans should make an unfortunate Sc
lection and bring about their own de-
feat when they are entitled to victory
Senator Johnson will do what he can
for the ticket. and then, if fate is
against us, viii go down to defeat with
has party.
NSenator Johnson is gaining ground
all the time in Michigan. His attack
OH the Wilson Administration or keep
ing Michigan troops in Russia in the
absence of any policy calling for their
presence there has endeared him to the
people Of that state. Furthermore. the
rial OF the friends of Senator New
aerry. disclosing the too liberal use
Of money in elections, is turning the
attention OF the voters there to a man
who is against all such practices and
VINO showed in his election for Gov
erNor and later for Senator that it does
not require much money in a campaign
when the candidate and the cause are
both popular"
The johnson men expect to make a
contest for the delegates to Chicago in
the goth Congress District, including
Morningside Heights and the Upper
West Side. William NJ. Bennett, local
manager for the Wood interests. yes

district leaders asking for the priv

Reminds Rockefeller Bible
Glass State Basic Law Pro-
tects Minorities From
Tyranny of Majorities

In yelled yet apparently obvious ret
orences to the unseating Of the five
Socialist members of the Assembly
Governor Smith urged 800 members of
the mems Bible class of the Fifth Ave-
nue. Baptist Church last night to be
careful in dealing with men who do not
agree with all the provisions of the
Constitution.
The Governor spoke at the twenty
third annual dinner Of the class, of
which John D. Rockefeller jr. is hon
orary president, at the Pennsylvania
Hotel. Addresses were made by DR..
Alexis Carrel, who spoke of surgical
accomplishments in France during the
war, and Augustus Thomas, author and
playwright, who dealt with prohibition.
"Much of the harmful radicalism is
due to the lack Of understanding by
certain people," said the Governor,
"that the Constitution carries guaran-
tees of protection to minorities from the
tyranny of majoritics."
The Governor then explained his at
titude toward Socialists by telling of
an incident in 1912, when he was mi
nority leader in the Assembly. Edward
Merritt, then majority leader, asked
him what to do with a Socialist mem
Der, and Mr.. Smith advised placing
When the member saw that things were
accomplished by votes and not by talk
the Governor said he event out and
got hair cut and was just like one of
u.s."
He said much of the present unrest
is due to the feeling that the govern
ment is not doing all it should do to
relieve the high cost of rent and food.
He suggested that the people be given
a better understanding of the personal
relation the Constitution bears to each
of them individually.
Mr.. Thomas, with John d. Rookie
feller jr., who is said to have con-
tributed literally to the "dry" cause,
sitting at his elbow, said the prohibi-
tioA amendment was a mistake. He re
ferred to Napoleon and the ex-Kaiser,
who, he said, failed because "they fought
against the moral sense Of the uni
verse"
