COX ON LAW ENFORCEMENT.
Wrote That Omcial Laxity Might be Com.
pared to Bolshevim.

Kansas, City July IA letter written
by Governor James M. Cox, of Ohio. 10
John II. Pollock, Kansas City attorney,
stating his position on law enforcement
was made public by Judge Pollock ycs-
terday. The letter, dated Columbus,
Ohio, June %. 1920 was sent in response
to an inquiry from Judge Pollock. 1t read !:
IL have read your letter with interest.
The question before us now is law enforce
ment. As the Constitution and statutes
stand, they are the expressed mandate Of
the people and must be respected by
public officers and citizens as long as they
remain. There is no difference between
neglect of the law by public officers and
an attack against our Institutions by the
Bolsheviki.
1--WE contend, and properly SO, that
there is no need of revolution in this
country because we have the govern
mental facilities to change the existing
order by rule Of the majority, bat we
can shardly create the proper attitude
among aliens, unaccustomed to our
ways, If public officers close their eyes
to theft oath and obligation"

LONDON PAPERS COMMENT.

London, July 7.-Commenting on the
Chicago and San Francisco conventions,
London Newspapers devote more at
tention TO future relations between the
United States and Great Britain than
upon the bearing the conventions viii
have on the domestic affairs Of America.
There IS nothing in the declared policy
of either Mr. Cox or Mr. Harding TO dis
t,Irb the most cordial relations between
the two countries" says the Morning
Post.
Several journals warn the people not
TO take 500 serious view Of uttersnces

Most newspapers touch lightly on the
Irish plank adopted at San Francisco, but
the Morning Post, remarks: American
Politicians do not scruple 70 serve their
own ends by resorting to expedlents which
they know are offensive to the BE itish
nation. We believe the Irish resolution

Blue IS the sky,
Blue is the sea,
Golden the cliff,
On which | stand
My back against the warm gold sand
Salt winds blow me into the clia
Tossing my hair and spreading ms skirts,
when the wind blows feel as free
AS a lark flying up 70 the gates 20 tnc
dawn.
Or again feel as happy and small
As a sca-pInk nodding on a cJrvej ,..n-
dune.
Or again feel as secret and wise
As a sly elf hidden in a turquoise boa
Now blows the great wind stro0gcr
greater,
Now blows the great wand singing +,
Ulysses
OF whIte-maned seas racing
There is no longer any me
Only blue sky, only blue sea
Gold cliffs and great wind blowing
There is no longer any me.
