COX WILL FIGHT FOR
WORLD CLUB PLAN
WOODROW WILSON STILL RULER OF
DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

whats all the excitement" aske
Uncle Ted who just awoke to the fac
that the argument of two red-bloode
American boys was getting a littl
too warm.
Jack spoke up: "Tom says tha
President Wilson is still the leader o
the Democratic party and that Gov
Cox will have to do just as he want
him to and Johnny says that isn't so.
I'm afraid" interrupted Uncle Ted
''that Tom is right and Johnny very
much wrong. I'll tell you kiddies all
about it if you'll be good"
ooh, GOOdy!" exclaimed Ruth who
is always ready for a story.
"The Democrats must realize, al
though most of them won't admit it,
that the American people are very
much disgusted with the way in
which Mr.. Wilson has run this gov
ernment They want no more one
man government and would never
send Mr.. Wilson back to the White
House even if he were running again
and they WILL NOT elect any man
President who is dictated to or who
says he will follow the policies of
Woodrow Wilson. Before Gov. Cox
was nominated on the Democratic
ticket at San Francisco, he was not
a strong supporter of the World Club
plan. He had said he was in favor
of reserYatiOns to protect Am6T1Ca.
But he WAS nominated on a ticket
that carries a platform that says Mr.
Wilson was right in his stand for the
World Club. Many people thought
even then he might see that the right
thing to do was not to be too strong
for the club. Today there is no doubt
how he stands and how he MUST
stand.
"On Sunday, July IS, Gov. Cox was
in Washington and had a talk with
President Wilson at the White House.
In the first place it must not make
the people of the country feel very
good to see the President giving Gov. |
Cox all the time he wanted to talk
about campaign plans to keep the 4
Democrats in power when the Presi- /
dent has been and is (accOrding to .
the reports from the White House) /
too ill to talk to people who want to
see him about important matters con-
nected with the welfare of the coun-
try, it proves, beyond any shadow of
doubt, that Woodrow Wilson still die
tates what the Democratic party shall
do and that Gov. Cox will simply be
a tool in his hands, doing whatever
Mr.. Wilson tells him to do. After the
was >over both President
Wilson and Gov. Cox issued state
menUs. These statements show that
Gov. Cox was completely won over to
support the world club plan just as
President Wilson insists 1t should be
md just as it has been turned down
~ the majority of the United States
Senate, many Democratic Senators in
,luded Gov. Cox said he pledges with
all my strength if elected to give
what he promised In other words,
-iddies, Mr.. Cox talked with Mr.. Will
on and when he got through Mr.. Will
on said, in so many words, that the
Governor was entirely satisfactory to
i'm. And remember that no man is
to Woorow Wilson unless ,
e promises to do and think just as !
Woodrow Wilson wants him.
whether Gov Cox agreed with the
resident about the World Club plan
efore he went to see him, 1 do not !,
now, but 1 do know that when he a
OF through he DID agree. The Pres y
lent. in his statement said that the
merican people gave their sons and y
leir money during the war with the =,
lain understanding that the world -
ub plan would be formed and that =.
g went ahead to start it so that the Is
merican people MUST accept it just d
) he says it should be. When Gov. \,
OK went to the White House he was Az
liking about reservations and when >,
2 left he talked of nothing but the -
-ilson league. He may have talked
the President about various kinds 4,
reservations which he thought nee ~
sary to keep the twenty-one Demo- Il
attic Senators in the party who vOt -,
against the world club. If he did, '-
r. Wilson soon changed his mind,
+ him 1t must be an awful blow to
e Democrats who worked so hard
San Francisco to keep Mr.. McAdoo
d the other men close to the Ad-
nistration from getting the nomina- Du
n. Most of the delegates at San VI
realized that the best thing WI
g Democrats could do would be to al
t as far away from Woodrow Will Du
4 and all his connections as pOssi- pc
!. Then they nominated Gov. Cox yO
d everybody was happy. But-on y
nday, July Is, all their happiness
led away when they realized that bi
'. Cox was going to be a real VIII WI
I man, even to the extent OF boldly ~.

is elected. ~ 0p
Jack, you and Ruth will remem-
: that last summer we saw what 20
S called a Punch and Judy show. VIII
tie toy people who danced, walked
acted by being pulled with IT TOi
mgs from behind in the hands of ne
ne man who did the talking. That
exactly the way this country Will an; an
run should Gov. Cox be our next ile1 u
