William Jennings Bryan

treaty had delayed peace more than a
year, and that the honor of the nation
and its participation in the league plan
Tor world peace should require prompt
ratification. He declared that the
league is such an advanced and impor-
tant step toward world peace that it
would be disastrous to lose the great
opportunity by disagreement over res
ervations.
Although Senator Walsh is said to
have conceded that Article X Of the
league covenant would be destroyed by
the Lodge rvations, he and Senator
Pomerene told the committee that
most, if not all, other important
features Of the league plan still would
remain.
Senator Pomerene incidentally de-
clared he had no apologies to make for
his vote for ratification with the Lodge
provisos. The Democrats, Mr.. Pomer-
enc declared, could not Justify a posi-
tion killing the treaty. Both he and
Senator Walsh made it clear that the
Administration plank, plus the Walsh
amendment, did not go as far as they
desired, but would present a better
issue to the country.
An assertion by Senator Walsh that
without his amendment the treaty
would be lost and that with it the
treaty's ratification would be assured
was met by a statement bv formep
Governor McCorkle of West Virginia
that he was opposed to action for mere
expediency.
God help the Democratic party
Governor McCorkle exclaim "You
will lose the respect of the American
people"
During the debate Senator Glass and
Mr.. Bryan clashcd over Mr.. Bryan s
published criticism of the sub-commit-
tee as a "secret" body. When Senator
Glass objected to it Mr.. Bryan replied
that he would use it again or any other
word he should choose.
The text of the Bryan treaty plank
which was defeated follows:
1--WE heartily congratulate the Demo
cratic party on its splendid leadership
in the submission and ratification of
the prohibition amendment to the Fed
eral Constitution and we pledge the
party to the effective enforcement Of
the Volstead law. honestly and in good
faith, without any increase in the al
coholic content of permitted beverages
and without any weakening Of any
other of it's provisions"

Endorsement of the Harding Coolidge
ticket and decision to send delegates

ship we're the principal actions of the
meeting Of the Young Republican Club
of New York, held last night at the
Hotel Pennsylvania. President Ben

fifty members. among them twenty
women, were present.
Helen Varick Boswell, who was a
delegate to Chicago, told the meeting
Of her impression, that the only real
spontanaeity shown by the convention
was in the applause for Herbert Hoover,
which, she remarked, did not count for
much with the delegates. Johnson en-
thusiasm, she added, was good while it
lasted, but stopped when tho voting
began.
Karl Behr fathered the motion to
elect five delegates to the unofficial
convention at Saratoga on July 27. who
would urge progressive candidate for
Governor. The move was opposed By
Gustave Hartman and Edwin Kurt
but carried by a wo-to-one vote after
long discussion.
Mr.. Hartman remarked that there
was too great a tendency to apologize
for Harding, and the meeting indorsec

1t is not an ideal system, but there
was a man at the convention who
marched up and down the alslcs for
forty minutes singing over and over
again. "Palmcr. Palmer, Pennsylvania"
There was another who expressed his
political convictions by playing "Didnt
He Ramble" on a comb for half an
hour. There was a speaker who did m
imitation of a llttlc child and or Il
diving soldier, and delegate who
showed his belief and enthusiasm for

Prefers Boss to Tenor
If the fate Of the nation must lie
with these men or with the bosses,
then we're for the boys in the back
room. We would ~ather submit to a
machine than a cheering squad and be
led by crooked politician than a high
tenor.
1t is generally admitted that nomi-
nations arc not won, or even inf1u-
cnced in the slightest decree, by or
ganizcd cheering, by beating lin pans,
or even by the playing Of ''Therc's a
Kiss That You Got from Mother" at
the psychological moment. But, never
thelcss, orators flourish and demon
strations persist.
Perhaps personal vanity has some
thing to do with it. A. Mitchell Pal
mcr, for instance, when he rotires to
private life can do6der about and tell
how his name was cheered in San
Francisco for forty minutes. Mr. Pal
mer, by the way, is going to leave the
city as soon after the convention as
possible. The Redwoods make him
nervous.

gCrosby is n big man and he probably
played an amateur Hamlet some time
or other. He has all the vocal tricks

he would hitch it up again and sound

At such times as he began to puff
he would gain breathing space by turn

his arms, quoted from Isaiah, and sat

Our faith in tho common sense Of
folk in general was revived somcwha
by the fine demonstration which fol
lowed the nominating speech for vii

kins took the platform and announced
that he intended to make a speech nom

Worst Joke in the World

But though most OF the speeches
were dull and long and pointless, we
cannot count the afternoon wasted, as
we heard for the first time the worst
Joke in the world. Governor Brough
Of Arkansas. said that his was The only
state mentioned in the Bible, and he
pointed out that the Good Book said
"Noah looked out Of the Ark and Saw. -
There was no demonstration.
We find that in the running stories
of convention, demonstration is
usually set down with "at this point
the delegates went wild with enthusi-
asm." We think better form might
be borrowed from the old fashioned
circus pro grams, which used to say

Would Break Deadlock

Would Break Deadlock
In his fight against the Administra-
tions league plank Senator Walsh de-
clared that. although he had been for
the treaty without reservations a year
of effort had demonstrated that such
q ratification was impossible. In the
coming campaign, he asserted, the
Democrats could not hope to win
enough Senators to make up the neces-
sary two thirds, and if the Admin stra-
tion declaration was adopted the coun-
try might we'll ask what the Democrats
could possibly hope to do to carry it
out.
Mr.. Bryan argued that the party
should not go on record as opposing
Senators had agreed, but should take
the issue cut of politics by declaring
for an immediate ratification compro-
mise.
In the treaty debate Vice President
Marshall was reported to have criti-
.cized the Administration plank because
1T gave no information to the pubic
regarding what reservations would fall
within the class described as not i'm
tegrity" Mr.. Marshall was said to
have declared that he would not 90 to
the country with plank for unqual-
fed ratification.
Chairman Glass, Senator Mcclellan,
of Ienpessee, and other Administration
chiefeains strenuously opposed the
Walsh amendment. The significance of
its adoption was indicated by sharp
assertions from the Administration
side that it would play into the hands
of the Republicans, be regarded as a
weakening Of the Democratic position
and be support for the position of Re-
publican Senators, led by Senator
Lodge.
Some Administration spokesmen
even declared, it was said, that it
would work to defeat the party in No
vember, and Senator Mcclellan was de-
clared to have denounced the Walsh
amendment as "the doctrine of he'll"
Another Administration member said
it would appear AS if the Democrats
were coming to terms" with the Re-
publicans. Still another opponent of
Senator Walsh's amendment said that
its defeat was tantamount to defending
the Lodge reservations, and that if the
committee adopted the Walsh addition
it ought to put Senator Lodge in NOM
ination" here.
Senator Pomerene supported the
Walsh amendment, declaring that the

THE REAL FIGHT TO COME
{ Seattle Times ]


 Right here and now however, The Times intends speaking out in meeting with reference to something 1t has been considering a long time.
 A great politico-economc struggle will be waged in the United States during the next few years That struggle will involve every principle in gov ornment upon which this nation is founded. It will decide whether this shall continue to be a republic, with practical functioning, representa- tive form of government disjointed, ineffective, radical democracy, held together solely by material self-nterest and dominated by demagogues.
 No American and American institution worthy the name is going to sit back idly while that strug- gle for free government is being waged.
 The Times, for one, will not; will the result 9f last Tuesdays primary change it's opinions or it's policies in the least.
 nntil this contest, now brewing has ben brought the right kind of conclusion
 It will not make states" It will not tie itself 10 the tail of parys kite
 It will speak the truth it sees it. with respect both great national parties.
 But, it's going to lend it's support to NO CANDI- DATE who wishes to IMPOSE SOCIALIST BUREAU CRACY YOKE on the neck of free-born American citizen
 It will FIGHT the TRIPLE ALLIANCE, the NON PARTISAN LEAGUE and all the other GLASS CON 'CloUS' POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS with all the 'igor at it's command, because it regards them as VICIOUS and uNAMERICAN
