cost and high cost of living. Relentless
pursuit of profiteers is pledged. He in
tends to make the rich pay their pro
pOrtiOnate share of the burden of the
was cost, too. He is for free speech
as safety valve and against the
promiscuous use of the injunction to
! enjoin workmen: Capital, he Insists,
! has got to grant the right to labor to
develop into large units since capital
is allowed to do that on it's own &C
count He is fatfootedly for collective
bargaining for labor. Both business
and labor, he adds, must know that
they cannot jeopardize the public in
terest
Governor Cox also says he believes
business should know with clarity
what it can do and cannot do; child
labor should not be permitted to be-
come exploitation Of the immature;
agriculture must be encouraged and
he promises agricultural aid on a
broader than ever scale to encourage
and furnish the incentive for greater
food production; he stands for care
full watch of food distribution and
fairness between producer, seller and F.,
consumer; he lauds the currency sys- |
tenn and is for making it serve the |
whole interests wherever it can by a |
broadened scope; he is outright for a t
budget system that will mean econ
0mies in public expenditures he pays
inc tribute to the soldiers and sail,
ofs who were the decisive factor in
winning the war and bespeaks the
oyaIty OF all citizens outside the
lighting ranks who contributed to the
winning of that great struggle; the
disabled soldier should be, he de-
,lares, our ward, in generous manner,
90; the women Of the country de-
serve and should have the right to
rote on any equality with the men, on
hat he is vigorous as he can be;
,arty organizations he believes in,
Tut he does not believe that the in
ividual responsibility Of the presi> ,
lent under the law and his oath :
hCuld be subordinated to pure parti- :
an control and rule. On the latter :
core he differs with Senator Harding,
Who has expressed himself to the
fleet that the Republican party will :,
ule # it is victorious. Governor Cox :

f the people without regard to parti-
anism and will not permit partisan
sm to rule in a strictly partisan man
er taking interest only in the politi-
al power in the narrow sense. That
readiness ought to appeal strikingly.
Or the lofty keynote it sounds.
Many other topics are discussed by
ne governor but those we have men
Cned are the chief OneS. The whole
anor Of his speech shows that he is )
man who has grasped wlat the peo-
lie feel, think and talk. The man, be
e in politics or interested in civic
fairs as a private citizen, that can
o that, is the kind of a man who is :
apable Of the greatest service to the
coplG: The governor shows that he
as earned the right to be viewed as
progressive. Ohio knows it, the
1untry will know it from the breadth
: his thought and the character Of =
is views on public questions. Z
The speech Of Governor Cox shows '
i'm up as a man who looks not to the
asst But to the future, he visual
es the future and notes that the
GRID demands new deal! That
eed he is prepared to meet, in tune
it'll that demand. n
