URGES VOTERS TO
FORGET THE WAR
Senator Owen Speaks for Pact
at Rensselaer, Meeting.

Special TO me llUleS-
RENSSELAER,. Ind, Sept. 14.-DeclaT-
ing that Americans or German extraction
should whole -heartedly support the
League of Nations. and with an appeal
that the recent war he forgotten and
ali nations turn now to a peace program,
Robert L. owen. United States Senator
from Oklahoma, last night addressed vot-
ers of Jasper County.
Senator Owen denounced the idea OF
Senator Harding that separate peace
be established with Germany. declaring
that the people of the United States and
of Germany can best be served through
the operation of the league.
Senator Owen said
While the war was going on, /
thought American citizens of German ex-
traction were, as a whole, entirely loyal
to the United States.
They bought Liberty bonds and their
sons fought with our troops, just as
other good Americans did.
RECALLS REASONS
FOR ENTERING WAR.
1T was but natural that men born In
Germany. remembering those who loved
them during childhood, should carry ten
der memories of those who contributed
to the happiness of their youth.
Naturally. such citizens did not wish
the United States to go into war in
which the Germans, under the Kaiser,
were on the other side.
After the United States was compelled
TO enter the war, I think our citizens of
German birth realized that the war was
war against Kaiserfsm, against mill
tary autocracy, against government by
divine right, against Imperialism, and
against a system Of government.
q The German leaders who declared war
made It impossible for the citizens of
Germany 10 refuse to enter the war.
The German people were compelled
to go to war by the military machine of
the Kaiser and it is a great blessin 8
from Heaven that the German people
are now free to govern themselves.
1T is a great blessing TO the German
people that they viii no longer be under
the head Of a military despotism.
The war was proven to have been
preclpitated by the military machine of
Prussia.
The heads of Hohenzollern and the
Hapsburgs were pledged to the secret
treaty Of Verona Of 1872, to the over
throw of the democracies of the world
as l set forth on the floor of the Sen
ate many times by inserting the treaty
itself where every one could see it.
The war is finished. the military aG-
tocracies are destroyed, the principle OF

DAVIS,
DECENCY CLUB
Clean Government Purpose of
Young Democrats.

AroHscd to n high stage Of indignation
by the revelations OF what has been
transpirlng in the county government, as
Il is being told by Paul G. Davis. Demo
cratic candidate for prosecuting attorney,
group Of young Democrats Of Marion
County last night organized the Davis
and Decepcy Club at the Indiana Demo
cratic Clubs home.
Thomas MCGEE was named president
J. Olias Vanier, vice president; James
Mellen, secretary, and Smiley n. Cham
bers. treasurer.
The purposes OF the club are TO arouse
the public TO a proper realization OF the
Acknowledgement and IMPROPERLY that
have marked be present administration
and to impress upon the citizens the fact
that the prosecutors office is the key
to good government and such things as
the returning of forfeitures to boot
leggers. the waste of county money and
the subsequent high tax levy can be
prevented only when the prosecutor acts
as curb on politically "gleeful spend
ing"
Mr.. Chambers said of the club:
THE Davis aud Decency club was
formed because Of a demand for a de
cent administration Of county and city
affairs.
MEN and women of both parties have
approved the direct and clean manner in
which Paul &. Davis has been bringing
to light the many instances Of malfea
nance in office by the Republican ma
chine.
1.-THE purpose of the club is to keep
the spotlight focused upon the workings
of the machine.
1--WE have opened Headquarters at Room
7G, the Denison Hotel and we expect
to enroll thousands of men and women
who put decent government ahead of
party politics.
