] They tell us that over in Russia
Emma Goldman cherislfes an Ameri-
can flag This woman who has been
most bitter of aliens against this
democratic government. has declared
| that she will yet return to this coun-
| try which she loves and to the flag
| which she cherishes.
Goldman, deported with other
| reds" from this country for sedition
and conspiracy, has learned. too late
| to value that freedom that the pa
| triots of this nation in the throes OF
| its making. made possible by the
shedding of their blood, and which
their descendants have held with all
the "ardor and the courage of a fight
ing breed.
It was for this liberty that the men
of America went forth to battle. 1t
was because Of their belief in their in
alie1able right to enjoy the fruits of
that liberty which their forefathers
made possible that they offered them
selves for the Supreme Sacrifice.
One hundred and forty-four years
ago the first American patriots
flung their challenge to Ger
man king on an English throne. This
country has never lost a war. But
won. This country has run red with
the blood of men who have given their
lives for freedom.
"To make the world safe for democ-
racy." That was the slogan of the
world war. For that the men and
boys Of this nation gave their lives.
Let us see that we keep that safety
sure and sacred.
Foreign hordes are seeking to wrest
this country from us. The country
men have died to save. Not with
bullet and shot and shell are they
making their attack; not with the
poison gas of the German hordes; but
with that more subtle, more insidious
poison which is creeping into our
body polite, which is seeking to un-
dermine union labor, Which is striving
to infect the minds of men in high
places.
The communist party in the Unit
ed States is not name; it is a
menace. The scum of the earth, dis
owned by their own country, spawned
of the filth of Europe, is seeking to
take over this government, led by
men of craft and cupidity.
Shall we stand today for our rights
against these foreign hordes, as our
forefathers stood in the past? Shall
we hold fast to those principles for
which our comrades died? Shall we
hold high the torch" keep the honor
of this country sacred, protect the
flag, which is the insignia of our gov
eminent, from the attack of foes
within and without?
Then we must stand together.
United we stand; divided we fall, and
before this country may rise again
the foreign hordes may have gained
the fortress and captured the citadel.
Take UP our quarrel with the foe!"
Let US not listen to the voice of the
charmer, charm he never so wisely.
This is our country. And we must
hold it against all Corners.
It is the greatest country on earth;
the very seat of liberty. Let us stand
fast together and keep it SO.

EoR DEMOCRATIC VICTORY.

The Tampa Tribune recently car
ried an editorial expression, which
closed with these words:
GAS for us we demand that the
party in 1920 reaffirm it's suffrage
plank of 1916: we recommend the
extension of the franchise to the
women of the country by the states
upon the same terms as to men, And
We demand of the men of the party,
that laying aside the matter of cour-
tesy to women they look seriously
into the matter of party preservation
in every state before they grant that
franchise-if the statement of Mrs.
McCarter be true. or Indicative Of the
intent of the leaders of the moVe-
ment."
This expression was based upon the
declaration of Mrs. Margaret Hill Me-
Carter of Kansas, who was quoted as
saying: az stand here as the repre-
sentative of twenty million women,
nineteen million of whom are menu
bers of the republican party" Mrs.
MeCarter was introduced by Chair.
man Lodge as 'tthe first woman who
has ever spoken from republican
platform"
The Tampa Tribune, in it's editorial
III COiulaSIIliS OIi ILLS, says.
'Is her statement true? If it be,
then with what face will they dare go
to San Francisco and demand of the
democrats in national convention as
sembled, that they be accorded a re-
spectful hearing, even in their de-
mand for a suffrage plank in the
party platform?
''If her statement be true, then
with what defiance Of party success
will Mr. Bryan demand a candidate
who is for woman's suffrage, and
plank supporting and pledging the
party to it?
'If her statement be true, with
what shadow of decency will they APP
pear before legislatures in democratic
states and demand that those states
shall ratify the Anthony mendment
to the federal constitution?
EITHER the women are playing the
A. +. L. act, trying to win out with
any party that will adopt them, or
else they are the most stupid geese
in the world for permitting one of
their recognized suffrage workers and
leaders to make the statement Mrs.
McCarter made on the Chicago con-
vention platform"
The Journal does not believe that
there are anything like nineteen mill
lion women who will vote the repub-
lican ticket. But, if there are, who is
to blame, if not the democratic south?
That the democrats have come to a
realization of this is apparent from
the fact that the party is urging spe
cia1 sessions of the legislatures of
Florida, Tennessee and Vermont, in
order that the women of this country
may be enfranchised~ in time to vote
in November.
Upon that vote depends the success
of the democratic party.
BY enfranchising the women of the
south, who outnumber the colored
both men and women, the
vote will be given to a large body OF
women who may be depended upon
to vote the democratic ticket-unless
the democrats are so foolhardy as to
insert wet plank in the democratic
platform.
The women of this country will
vote almost solidly for two things
the League of Nations and prohibit
ton. They will vote for the League
Of Nations because they believe that
through this and this alone may peace
10 the world be secured. They will

third term. He is not an aspirant

platform is adopted and the candi+
dates are placed on it, there may be

may be some who will talk about a

The Miami Spirit.


Letter received from Walter B.
Neal. general sales manager of the
Record Company, who is in the north
on business, tells of a visit to At
lantic City during the National Rotary
convention. Mr.. Neal spent almost
two days searching for G.. A. Lamont
and C. E. Young, the 1.-TWO official
delegates from the st. Augustine Ro-
tary Club, and had all but despaired
of finding them when spied Clarence
and Charlie comfortably ensconed in
wheel chairs and being trundled along
the famous board walk. He says that
they were bearing UP bravely under
great difficulties, Atlantic City being
frightfully crowded with the finest
bunch of people that ever gathered
together in one spot.
One of the most interesting por-
lions Of Mr., Meals letter deals with
the wonderful publicity work put
over by the Rotarians, the Chamber
Of Commerce, and the people of Mi
ami. He says that one of the finest
features of the whole big show was
the Miami exhibit. This was located
in corner of the famous million
Dollar Steel Pier" this being an ideal
situation, and was visited by thou
sands of delighted and enthusiastic
visitors who admired the wonderful
tropical fruits, shrubs and plants. AS
Mr.. Neal puts it, not only Miami, but
Florida benefits tremendously by this
splendid bit of advertising.
The Miami delegation adopted Mr.
Neal, and had him march in the
great parade with them, so he was
not given an opportunity to feel lone
ly, even amid the gathering of ten
thousand men from many lands and
from every state in the union.--St.
Augustine Record.

WILMA CAPTOR IGNORES
ORDER FOR PLEBISCITE

WARSAW, Nov. 24.-The wilma
situation still Is highly critical.
Gen. Zellgonski. whose outlaw army
Is in possession OF the city, refuses
to consent to q plebiscite under the
league of nations to settle the
question OF nationality and political
status, maintaining that an elected
diet alone can settle the point. The
leagues mission insists 1t must be
. plebiscite or nothing.
Meanwhile the armistice agree
ment concluded under the auspices
Of the league mission has collapsed.
Gen. Zellgonski agreed to the armis-
tice beginning at 3 o'clock on the
night OF November 81, having been
advised that the Lithuanian gov
ernmsnt at Kovno had also agreed.
But two hours In advance OF the
armistice hour the Lithuanians be-
gan an offensive, caught Gen. zeIl-
gonski unawares and captured two
villages.
The chairman OF the league mis-
sion demanded that the Kovno gov
eminent stop the offensive and re-
treat to the position that had been
agreed upon. There is no informa-
tion as to the result Of this de-
mand.

MORTGAGE TAX
HURTS HOUSING
Exempt Realty Securities
And Curb Legislation
SuggAs City Club.

Exemption Of real estate mort
cages from income taxes for 5
years, and avoidance Of any reme-
dial legislation that would dis
courage building enterprises were
urged by the housing group of the
City Club Tuesday night as means
Of relieving the housing situation In
Washington.
The suggestion was based on a
resolution introduced at the previ-
Gus meeting by John l. weaver,
former president Of the National
Real Estate Brokers' Association.
The only important change in the
finally adopted program was the
elimination Of a recomme ndation
that salaries of government en-
ployes be increased to enable them
to pay modern rentals and meet In
creased living costs. While every
member OF the group present fav-
ored the, recommendation, IL was
felt that some members OF Congress-
might get the false impression that
the higher salaries were sought
merely as a real estate exploitation
scheme.
1t is expected, however, that
after the principal program has been
presented to Congress and its adopt
ion urged, the group will urge highef
salaries for the employees. II. Clinord
Bangs, who presided, announced
that the salary question would be
given consideration at the next
meeting.
The resolution attributed the
housing shortage to these reasons:
Inability to get mortgage money be-
cause Of the diversion Of capital to
tax-free State, Federal and munici-
pal government bonds; insufficient
salaries paid government employees:
the "depressipg effect OF attempted
remedial legislation which set up
commission to regulate prices" and
the tendency Of high labor costs 70
kill incentive.
Frank w. vedder proposed that
the group inaugurate a campaign to
induce government employees to IN
vest their savings in real estate
mortgages.
Exemption Of real estate mort
cages from income taxes for limit
ed period to meet the emergency 10
the most important remedial step
that can be taken" said Mr.. weaver.
"I feel confident that tax-free mort
cages could compete favorably with
rails and industrials paying even AZ
high as per cent. Many people
prefer realty investments for they
get something they can see."
