TOO long for your space you are at liberty TO
cut out anything and everything but the sayings
OF Wilson, which have been gathered from a
variety of sources and only part of which can
be found In two book compilations of hts
speeches. We are being flooded with propa :
ganda by the editorial Jackdaws in Oklahoma
city which are quoting extensively from the
speeches and writings OF Taft and others. show
ing up their Inconsistency etc. I deem 1t quite
important that some notoriety be given to the
utterances Of Woodrow wilson. heartily agree
with the sentiment of your editorial In the
Sunday World, and especially with these sem
tences; The republican nominee In our judg-
ment, attaches entirely too much Importance
TO the views OF these gentlemen. too much In =
nuence 10 their names. To him has been
entrusted present leadership, not TO them" I
am glad that you put II plainly In that form
for the worst thing that has happened in this
campaign was the round robin of Taft and the
ously compromised the republican campaign. It
is time for Mr.. Harding to understand that he
VIII not be elected by the votes of men and
women who are In favor of the league. Oppo-
stion to the league has been the strength OF
the republican position. The pronouncement
OF the highbrow group has given the great
ohgarcher o source of trick argument. They
have compromised the situation in a greater
decree than anything that has been done in
this campaign. Had Mr.. Harding paid ~fess
attention to them. and omitted much of his
talk about some other form OF league, in my
Judgment the contest would be much more Sc
cure. II is time enough after a treaty OF peace

dinner party. l had decided to dis

This is sinister day, according
to astrology. Saturn, Jupiter and
the Sun are all in malefic aspect.
Selling is subject to fairly favor
able direction, but all speculation
should be avoided.
Under this rule discouragement Is
likely because of a sense Of being
easily thwarted which may oppress
persons who are pushing business
or other affairs.
1t is not a lucky or helpful plane
tary government for political candi-
dates.
Saturn is in a place that encour-
ages reactionary tendencies, and for
that reason forward-looking move
ments will suffer.
Jupiter seems to warn professional
men of various callings that they
will feel the burden Of high costs
and heavy taxes to serious extent
owing to some condition that will de-
velop in the winter.
A new immigration problem Is
forecast. Many women will come
to this country. and in some way
produce anxiety concerning indus
trial conditions. +.t, ...-.
Agriculture is subject to an un-
favorable aspect of the stars today,
and all who till the soil shbuld con-
serve their energies.
Stock raisers may experience Sc
we're weather that will cause losses,
They should guard against the i'm
portation OF a serious cattle disease,
Persons whose birthdate 1t is
should take care of their money and
avoid speculation.
Children born on this day may be
generous to excess and too carefree
to succeed by hard work. Girls will
have eventful careers in all prob
ability.
