LIBERAL MUST HAVE
THAT AUDITORIUM

The matter of an auditorium for
Liberal is no longer a question.
Liberal must have an auditorium.
Twice last week the need for an
auditorium was forced upon the
boosters of the city.
The Wildey Association meeting
was one instance; the Wichita
Boosters meeting the other.
At neither meeting was there room
for half the crowd which came to
town.
An auditorium would be the best
investment the town could make,
and the Democrat is in hopes the
matter will be more vigorously
pushed.
There is no end of meetings which
could be brought here were there
suitable building, and the money
spent in the city by the visitors
would pay the cost of the building.
There are several lodges here
which could get the Grand lodge if
there was an auditorium. We could
have two or three basket ball tourna-
ments. Several of the churches could
get their state meeting here could
they accommodate the crowds In
fact almost every month in the year
could see some great meeting held
here which would bring hundreds of
people from a distance, and these
would advertise the town as nothing
else could.
Big speakers could be induced to
come if we had house of sufficient
seating capacity to justify the trip.
If Liberal is to continue to grow
and expand we must have an audi
torium. 1t is the next step and has
not been taken soon enough. The en-
tire southwest looks to Liberal to
lead in this matter, and will help the
proposition along.
If the 100000 auditorium cannot
be built at this time a commodius
building of sufficient seating capa-
city could be erected at fraction of
the cost. We need the big building
but we had better have the other if
we cannot go the whole way now.
If Liberal is to lead she must lead.
Should some other enterprising city
take the initiative and build big
building all the good things would go
there and we would be left out in the
cold.
The Chamber of Commerce has
had a committee for many months
but the matter has not as yet as
sumed definite form. Let US hope
they start the ball to rolling right
away and see whether we are to plug
along as in the past or get in the
front rank and keep up the pace set
in other matters.

A representative of a large pepper
house told the. Democrat a few days
ago that they had seventeen cars of
paper Somewhere" but the railroads
could not deliver it.As a consequence
there is not pound of book paper
for sale today. We tried last week to
buy paper from four different houses
and could not get shipment on a
pound.
If this is Service" we don't care
for lot of it, and the chances are
that it will get worse. The engraving
houses are behind on orders and
write us that they are compelled to
express in materials, making it rather
expensive, Is this service? ..
During the war under the stress Of
war conditions, transporting troops
and ammunition, with the shortage of
men there was no such break in SER
vice as exists today, and it is not a
question of men, either, as a railroad
man told us few days ago there was
plenty of help.
The fellows who howled their
heads off that the roads be turned
back, and expected the industrial
court to work the impossible are in a
bad way They knocked the service
the government gave under adverse
yet under nearer normal
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1920-05-06

conditions the service is far worse.
We have always contended that the
government would have to take over
the roads before the country could
have service and we are going to stay
with it, Unless the service is improv-
ed and that at an early date the bust
ness of the nation is going to be de-
moralized to such an extent tina con-
ditions will become intolerable.
And the worst thing about the sit
uation is that the knockers who kick
ed government control from purely
political motives will have hard
time convincing the American people
that that they were right

WOMEN HEAR
Miss Thurston Speak
on League Of Nations
Learn How to Mark Ballot and Elec-
ton Day Procedure

IF the League of Nations had
controlled. the world in 1l16 there
would have been no United States"
declared Miss Adelaide Thurston of
Minnesota, speaking Tuesday evening
at the Republican club rooms in On
ion hall before a gathering of women
in which few men We're inter
mingled. The meeting was called as
a school of instruction for the wom-
en- of wards ]. > and . and Miss
Thurston's presence was due to the
cancellation of the meeting sched-
uled to be held at East Pittston at
which she was to speak. 1t was I'M
fortunate that a larger number of
women and men could not have
the League OF Nations.
She described the Wilson league as
q defensive alliance for war" which
was TO be controlled by few strong
nations, and declared that it would
not under any circumstances bring
about peace. She reviewed the his
tory of the drafting of the League
the sacrifices which President Wilson
was forced to make to win his favor
lite project; she told how he had
abandoned one after another, his IA
points and had spoken as the voice
OF the United States and had made
pledges to Europe which could not
be carried out. Her arrangement of
the Presidents course and of the
covenant was vigorous and forceful
and she concluded her address with
strong appeal 10 the voters to turn
their support to the Republican can
didates unless they wished to have
another period of wisconsin carried
out by proxy, under Cox and Roose-
welt.
Previous to Miss Thurston's adj
dress Blaine s. Niles, chairman of
the Republican committee Of Ken

the procedure of election day and
Judge Benedict F. Maher instructed
them in the marking of the ballot.
