DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CHAIRMAN
REVEALS PLANS AND PROSPECTS

George White. head of the Demo
cratic National Committee, gave out
the following statement of his plans
and OF the Democratic prospects as
he sees them to a reporter soon after
he was chosen:
THE campaign will determine
whether the country wishes to return
from progressive, forward-looking
principles of government to a react
ionary regime.
Governor Cox came on the field
of public life in 1908, when the coun-
try started to go forward in thought
and action. He was member of con-
gress in 1910, when the country show
ed it's disapproval and lack of conf
dence in Republican leadership by re-
turning a strongly Democratic house.
In 1912 the peiple Of Ohio chose him
as governor, putting on his shoulders
the heavy responsibility of enacting
into statutory law the provisions of
the new constitution.
THE Republicans as represented by
both branches of the legislature OPP
posed great part of this legislation.
IL has been particularly advantageous
to Ohio. The people believe in Cox.
They know his value. and ! as chair
man of the Democratic national COM
mittee, intend that what Ohio knows
shall be made known to every state,
city, town, village. crossroads and
cottage in America.
THE Republicans have criticised
the Democratic war congress. Their
critism will have no effect because
they have been in power two years
and have accomplished nothing The
people know that they can trust Cox.
1t is his proud record that every
promise he made in Ohio has been
lived up to after his election.
Americans can know what to ex-
pect if they, elect Cox because, as he
has said, The platform adopted at

San Francisco is a promissory note
that must be paid in full This is no
idle phrase. IL means that, as far as IL
is humanity possible, every promise
made in the platform shall be kept.
Can the Republicans say as much
They promised that a Republican con-
gress of business men would relieve
the country of the bunglesome burden
OF tax bills We shall sharply attack
them for their failure to make good.
We shall attack the party for not
dotting an 4 or crossing e in rev.
enuc bills which they had so bitterly
criticised for what they have not done
to the excess profits tax, which adj
mittedly contributes to the high cost
of living. This tax was passed under
was conditions and approved by the
Republican ways and means commit
tee and later by the Republican con-
gress. 1t should have been repealed by
the present congress, but it has failed
to do SO.
IL do not believe that the indepen-
dent vote of the country, which will be
controlling factor in this election,
will support party that looks at the
hole and not at the doughnut ! be-
lieve that the workmen of the country
will realize that President Wilson's
new freedom is reflected in their con-
ditions as to wages and living; that
they do not hold their jobs, nor does
their pay depend on the alleged bene-
fit of the high protective tariff.
Our progressive platform is built
upon a, new order of things while the
Republican platform gracefully dod-
ges all progressive legislation.
AS chairman | am going to have
the assistance of the whole Democracy
to place these facts squarely before
the people Our party is united We
are all working together We have the
modern thought of the day behind us,
and we expect to win glorious cleo
ton in November.

PREVENTION OF "FLAT-SOUR"

Canned corn, peas, beans, and as
paragus may show no signs of spoil

to the Gamer as "hat-sour." and can
be avoided, United States Department

il the Gamer will use vegetables that
have been gathered not more than
five or six hours, blanch. cold-dip,
pack one jar at time and place each
jar in the, Gamer as il is packed. The
first jar in will not be affected by the
extra cooking. When the steam-pres-
sure Gamer is used, the jars or cans
may be placed in position but not
clamped down until the retort is fill
