hurting their oversensitive and usual
ly foreign-bred feelings.
Confusion and dissension would GER
tainly follow such OBVIOUSLY branch
ing policy. If an individual or society
is willfully Indifferent to American
ideals, there is no well-founded reason
why the United States should adopt
mischievous~ alien theories or allow its
laws to be dictated by faction leaders.
Winning their voting power would
bond the country to trouble at COM

both act and think, men who have
worked with other men Of varied oc~
cupations, men who can work harmo-
niously with other practical working

leaders that have trained their ener-
gies. Executives must have learned
first to adjust themselves to circum-
stances, then to adjust the circum-
stances when necessary.

by practice at the expense of the gov
erned people.

Will of Many
Placed Above
Rule by a Few
Duty of Those at Helm
to Exercise Such Power
as Will Eliminate the
Strike Menace in America
Law as the Only Weapon
Legislation Is Necessary
as Reflected in Great
Body of Public Opinion

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Americans, always reluctant to
curtail the rights of the individual, are
at last compelled to admit that there
sre necessary limitations to the right
of self determination in the individual.
The right in the individual must always
be subservicnt to the right in the mass
from whom the individual derives his
| right.
Under our system of government GER
tain ina!ienable rights are by the Con-
stitution guaranteed the individual, but
also by the Constitution every right in
the individual is subject to the police
power in the state, and the state itself
cannot abrogate that power. In the
exercise of that power the state is
justified in the enactment not only Of
laws to protect the public health, safety
or morals, but of any legislation made
Immediately necessary in the judgment
of preponderating body of public
opinion.
SO in the present crisis plainly it is
the duty of those in whose hands the
people have placed the reins of govern
ment to exercise the police power to
punish and restrain those why by strike
or other indiscrminate weapon of a
minority threaten to disrupt our sys-
tenn of living.
There are now two on the statute
books by which, without further legis-
lation, the common enemy may be rout-
ed and punished. For example, the au-
thorities have an effective weapon
against the so-called "outlaw" strikers
in the Lever act, which forbids con-
spiracies to limit the distribution of
necessaries Now is the time, if ever
to employ this weapon.
One plank in the Republican plat
form should guarantee that the will of
the few shall no longer prevail over
the will of the many. F. H. F.

Labor and Capital
Must Lock Arms
To Expel Unrest
Minimum Wage Scale Is
Proposed as First Step
in Campaign to Bring
About Industrial Peace
To the Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Most Of US are talking or
thinking of our present unrest and un-
settled conditions. The question is,
What is the cause Of the unrest? When
we have found this, solution for a
remedy will be easier. One of the
many causes is the non-ratifcation Of
progress will not make healthy be-
ginning.
The differences between capital ana
labor can never be settled through
legislation. We cannot legislate human
nature! If they look upon each other
as copartners they will get along.
Capital must not look upon labor as
that much machinery. After mini
mum wage scale is established wages
will always be governed by supply and
demand. Labor must realize that it
does not take any risks. Capital and
labor must let 60 of each others throat
neck After this is done none need
to bother about Increased production
or the high cost of living
We need less talk Of Bolshevism and
more action. Never mind our long
haired brother on the soapbox, get the
man at the Office Cut the head off
the serpent, not the tail. We need the
immigrant, and it is not the educated
immigrants we need, but those of sound
mind and healthy body. Deport the
agitators, and you will have no trouble
with the average ignorant immigrant.
Until the league of nations has
proved it's ability to function the
United States should be prepared for
any eventuality. Universal military
training will not only keep the nation
prepared, but will improve health.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Thoughtful American voters
want platform that is strong and so
thoroughly American that it will hold
together throughout the coming polt-
cal campaigan and for four years after
March A, 1921. At the end of the four
wears it should still be substantial
enough not to need complete recon-
struction.
Some repairs might be unavoidable,
for time works unexpected changes.
Built of seasoned timber of practical,
sound and tested business experience,
a platform should be composed of
plain issues. 1t ought in its meaning
TO be as clear and unmistakable as the
Constitutions The planks should ex-
press definite action.
They should be so straightforward
that a candidate can feel assurance in
advocating them. If elected, he can
then regard them as safe support for
mis- pledge of office. High-sounding
sound, with sense scattered and vast
ed. Planks sawed out by cheap dema-
Eogy and racy stump speeches may
rouse the enthusiasm of a shouting
mob, but such planks break easily un-
der steady strain.
Republican principles are American
principles. Catering to fads and fad
dists is un-American. 1t multiplies
-"sms" and puts executive and judi
cial authority out of balance. The few
in numerous s>ubborn and un-Ameri-
can social, and sometimes sectarian,
orders refuse to let their members
become wholesome and loyal mixers

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: l wish to cast vote in favor
of conservation of natural resources
as plank to be included in a national
platform.
Land should be developed for the
best use of the people, by means of
agriculture, forestry or other mediums,
according to the location and character
of said land. Potential forest land
should be devoted to the production of
forests.
A forest land survey should be ex-
