very eager to be helped and con be
reached in the plants whereas 1t is
impossible to get them by any other
means
| Mr.. Hensens' method is very SIM
pie. He goes from department to
department each morning and the
| men are called in two and three at g.
time. The papers are filled out and
corrected and as Don as everything
is found to be in the proper shape, the
| papers are returned to b Plant and
| the men are taken 70 New Brunswick
where they receive their first or last
papers as the case may be,

81 YEARS-HITCHCOCK

AKRON. Ohio, October 2e-Republi-
cans are using deliberate falsehoods and
neutrality-suspicious. of the league Of ma
tons covenant, as "a political vehicle
In which to carry Warren G. Harding
to the White House." Senator Gilbert
M. Hitchcock Of Nebraska charged in
an address here.
Article x of the league covenant will
inevitably preserve peace and will not
lead to war as charged by the repub-
licans," Senator Hitchcock declared. We
in America, have been living under an
article x for ninety-seven years. for
the original article y was promulgated
by President Monroe in 1928, in his
message warning European nations that
if any Of them undertook by colonial
ton or conquest to establish their sys-
TENS on the western hemiswhere Amer
lea would regard it as an unfriendly act
If we can protect the territorial in
tegrity and political independence of
twenty republics of the western hemi-
sphere for ninety-seven years without
firing gun, then the forty-three nations
in the present league can protect other
nations Of the world without warfare
and bloodshed"
