, can be no cause greater than the gov ernment. but it remained for Wilson to enunciate the theory that there could be a cause for which so many have died.
 You remem Der when you received word for the first time. over two years ago. that the armistice had been signed. You were electrified because you wanted peace. We all wanted peace and it was universally prayed fo all over the world. Then Wilson went to Paris. For what. we did not know until he came home and told us of the proposed league and the covenants prepared behind locked doors. The league was at first hailed as a great thing by many educated people in the entire world. Some even did so with out reading it or knowing what was in it. The Wilson sentiment in favor of the league was started by his own sucker list.
 There are some women in Berlin talking about cutting the ticket against Brandegee. He was opposed to the league and Article 23 which these women say must be allowed. They will find, however. that the sign ing of this article would give other nations the traffic of our women and children and opium. Mothers of Der lin, women of Berlin, you should thank God that Frank Brandegee did not put his seal on this article. In Hartford there are many democratic women who are thankful that he did not sign 1t.
 Has Not Stopped War.
 The people of the nation are Tn accord that we should not be bound to any contract. But if we were to join the league we would find~ that England has six votes to our one. Even though the league of nations is in vogue with the nations signing it. it has not stopped the Bolsheviki war in Poland. Poland, as a member. ap- pealed to Japan for help. Japan re- piled that she had no time to help another nation. Then Poland went to Italy. Italy said she is having enough trouble of her own. Then she went to France. France said: Sure we signed the league of nations. but we have Morocco to look after. We will, however. provide you with a general. Then Poland goes to England. Lloyd George gave her this reply: It is true we are members of the league, but the only nation in the world that has the men and money to do what you want done has not as yet joined the league Without doubt he was refer ring to the U. s.
 Another thing that still is not clear to me is .Shy some of our boys are in northernA Siberia and guarding the coal mines of France. All, or the majority of these boys have written home asking why they are forced to stay over there. But there is one answer to that. They will be there until the fifth of March. when War ren Harding takes the chair as presi- dent of the United Sites. then they will come home. In a final appeal for president. In closing let me say that both Harding and Brandegee will be elected to office on the strength of their records and manhood"

 Mrs. Joseph Alsop of Avon, niece to the late Theodore Roosevelt, was the next speaker. In short she said:
 Women of Berlin, there are three things to take into consideration when you decide to vote. They are CD Tradition in the party: CD. Candi- date; C3) The issues. These. when balanced, make up the reasons as to which way you should vote.
 The republican party gave us our basic principles and it was through Abraham Lincoln that the union was preserved It was Roosevelt and Mo Kinley who made this country to be a traditions of the republican party mIw l AA~.. mH
