annoying taxes has added to our trou- bles. The natural impulse is to forget the past, to develop new interests. to create a refreshenei and refreshing atmosphere in life. We want to for get war and be free from the troubling thought of it's possibility in the future We want a change from the old world of yesterday where international in trigue made people mere pawnS on the cheSs-board of war. We want a change from the old industrial world where the man who tOiled was assured a full dinner pail as his only lot and portion. But how Ire we to make the change? Which way shall we go? We stand at the forks of the road and must choose which to follow. One leads te a higher citizenship, freer expression of the individual and a fuller life for all The other leads to reaction, the rule of the few over the many and the restriction of the average mans chances to grow upward. Cunning de vices backed by unlimited prodigal ex- penditures will be used to confuse and to lure. But I have an abiding faith that the pitfalls will be avoided and the right road chosen.
 ''The leaders opposed to Democracy promise to put the country back to normal This can only mean the SO- called normal of former reactiOnary administrations the outstanding fea- ture of which was a pittance for farm produce and a small wage for a long day of labor. My vision does not turn backward to the normal desired by the senatorial oligarchy. but to future in which all shall have normal opportunity to cultivate a higher stat ure amidst better environment than that of the past. Our view is toward the sunrise of tomorrow with it's progress and its eternal promise of better things. The opposition stands in the skyline of the setting sun. look ing backward, to the old days of re action.

that physical handicap incurred while in the service of their government believe also that the Federal Board of Vocational Rehabilitation as far as possible should employ disabled sol diers themselves to supervise the re- mobilization of disabled soldiers, be- cause of their known sympathy and understanding. The board itself and all agencies under it should be bur dened with the care of securing for the disabled soldier who has finished his training, adequate employment.
 "The women of America, in emotion and constructive service, measured up during the war to every requirement, and emergency exacted much of them. They demonstrated not only willing ness, but capacity. They helped win the war, and they are entitled to the privilege of voting as a matter of right and because they will be helpful in maintaining wholesome and patriotic policy. It requires but one more state to ratify the national amendment and thus bring lOng-delayed justice. l have the same earnest hope as our platform expresses that some one of the remaining states will promptly take favorable action.
 Education.
 'There must be an awakened inter- est in education. The assumption that things are all right is an error. The plain fact reveals two startling things, one, growing decima tion in the ranks of teachers and the other, the existence of five and one-half millions Hitter ates. The army of instructors has been more or less demoralized through financial temptation from other activi- ties which pay much better. We owe too much to the next generation to be remiss in this matter.
 Campaign Contributions.
 .'There will be. no attempt in this campaign to compete by dollars with our opposition. So many people have been in the money gathering bust ness for the reactionary cause that the millions already in hand are more or less a matter of general informa- tion- All that we ask is that both parties deal in the utmost good faith with the electorate and tell the plain truth as to the amounts received, the contributors, and the items of dis bursements.
 "'The sort of readjustment which will appeal to our self-respect and ultimate ly to our general prosperity, is the honest readjustment. Any unfair ad- justment simply delays the ultimate process and we should remember the lesson of history that one extreme usually leads to another. We desire industrial peace. We want our people to have an abiding confidence in gov ernment, but no readjustment made under reactionary auspices will carry with it the confidence of the country.
 ''The inconveniences incident to the war have been disquieting the failure of the Republican Cangress to repeal

ever, in foreign parts should be en- larged and under the federal reserve system, banks should be established in important trading centers.
 Reduction of Armament.
 'I am convinced after considerable study of the subject that the expense of the government can, without loss of efficiency, be reduced to a maximum of four billion dollars, including sink ing fund and interest. on the national debt. When we enter the League of Nations. we should at the same time diminish our cost for armament. To continue expenditures in either the war or the navy departments on a vast scale, once our membership in the League is assured, would seem to be a very definite refutation of the advan- tages of the world plan which we be- Heve it possesses. An appealing funda menta! in the League method, is the reduction of armamentS. We can not afford to do it. until other nations do likewise. If we do not enter the League, hundreds of millions of dol lars must be spent for ornaments. If we go in. and I believe the people will insist on it, then we can count on economies.
 "The Republican leaders who have taken charge of their party and nomi- mated it's candidate, are no more pos sessed of the spirit of the hour than they were in 1912 when they precipi tated a revolution within the rank and file of a great organization. If further proof were needed, the action of the @ constructive law can be cited. Money and time were wasted In seeking to make a military triumph an odious chapter in histOry-and yet is it not significant that after two years of sleuthful' inquiry, there was nothing revealed in that vast enterprise, carry ing billions of dollars in expense, upon which they could base even a whisper of dishonesty?
 "The Mexican situation, trying to our patience for years, begins to show signs of improvement. Not the least of the things that have contributed to it, is a realization by the people of that country, that we have neither the lust for their domain, nor disposition to disturb their sovereign rights. Peace smiles upon the border and in- centive to individual effort seems to be making a national aspiration.
 Disabled Soldiers. .
