the large responsibilities of world of greater economic and political freedom and to employ moral force in solving the problem of the future, in an address by Governor Coolidge of Massachusetts, republican candi- date for vice-president candidate at Vermont university. The degree of doctor of laws was conferred upon him.
 "The conflicts of the last six years," Governor Coolidge said, "have strengthened the determination of all American people now as in the past to resist all aggression and support and defend her political institutions with whatever power may be neces- sary for their preservations and the maintenance of the large liberties they bestow upon all her citizens. 1 Ut is absolutely impossible for the public to evade or shirk the burden of meeting the cost of war and paying the public debt. This is our part of the price of victory. Until this is met higher range of costs will be the price of prosperity. There has been and still is in some cases a range of artificially high prices which has not been caused by, but has resultde in profiteering. There is but one sure remedy for this and that is an in- crease of production. This is always the result of long process and its application requires patience and for bearance.
 "We have been preaching and en- gazing in a great crusade. Its pur- pose has been to destroy despotism and preserve freedom. There has been a new expression to the rights of the individuals. Al lthis has set new standard of value on human service because it has given new view to man. There has been here vast for ward movement, the extent of which has not yet been fully appreciated.
 "To some it has been disappointing, giving them unrest and dissatisfac- tion. If any expected to find satis- faction merely in enlarged income they were foredoomed to disappoint- ment. Satisfaction does not come from satiety or indulgence. It comes from achievement. Greater liberty does not mean less responsibility, it means more responsibility. If eco- nomically our citizens are to be no longer cheap they must be no longer without responsibilities.

 MONROE DOCTRINE
 OF ENTIRE WORLD
Chairman Cummings Roats Democrats In His
 Keynote.

San Francisco, June 28.-The league of nations covenant was championed as the Monroe Doctrine of the world" by Homer Cummings, tempo rary chairman of the democratic na- tional convention, in his keynote ad. dress here today.
 | Of the peace treaty's defeat in the senate, he said: "No blacker crime against civilization has ever soiled the pages of our history"
 He characterized the republican platform as "reactionary and provin- cial." "Filled with premeditated sian. ders and vague promises, it will be searched in vain for one constructive suggestion for the reformation of the conditions which it criticises and de- plores," he continued.
 "The oppressed peoples of the earth will look to it in vain. It contains nc message of hope for Ireland; no word of mercy for Armenia; and it conceals sword for Mexico. It is the work of men concerned more with material things than with human rights. It contains no thought, no purpose which can give impulse or thrill tc those who love liberty and hope to make the world safer and happie, place for the average man."
 He declared that the peace time rec ord of the democratic party from March, 1913, to the outbreak of the world war to it's credit "more eff fective, constructive and remedial legislation than the republican party had placed upon the statute books in a generation"
 Praising the administrators course in the war he said: "We fought a great war, for great cause and we had leadership that carried America to greater heights of honor and power and glory than she has ever known before in her entire history"
 "Let no one misunderstood us. These great affairas were carried for ward under the stimulus of American patriotism, supported by the courage and spirit of our people, All this is freely and gladly acknowledged, but
