Homer S. Cummings Says Republican

Hyde Park, N. Y.-The American

declared here in formally notifying
Franklin D. Roosevelt of his nomina-

Undisputed in the material and
moral leadership of the world" when
the armistice was signe, he said, "who
will deny that our title to that leader
ship has been grievously impaired If
not completely lost ?"
'"'What has happened to account for
this lowering of morale and the for
fixture of the place Of honor which
had been won by American arms and
American craftsmanship? ?" Mr.. Cum

every enemy of society, of peace
or of civilization took uick advantage
of the fatal period of hesitancy. Am
erican commerce, which ought to have
Il been seeking every port in the world,
was unable to develop adequate trade
channels or nd settled basis for devel-
onment. All the processes of national
life were impaired and there was a
gradual accumulation of domestic
| problems which have not been adj
| justed and which cannot be satisfac-
torily dealt with until our relation
ship to the rest Of the world has been
determined.
"There has not been an hour since
! the November elections Of 1918 dur
| ing which the American people have
not paid a staggering penalty for the
Republican triumph Of that year.
There is but one clear path of duty.
1t is to redeem Americas word to the
world and to assume without hesita-
ton our share of the task of rehabil-
itating the broken structure of civil
ization.
"The Democratic party is uncon-
querable in it's hold upon the truth
that America belongs to the world
and cannot serve herself while break
ing faith with others. Such is our
cause and our purpose. That you will
hold high the standard we place in
your hands we do not for moment |
doubt"
Speaking of the Republican conven-
ton at Chicago, Mr.. Cummings said |
"timidity and cunning were the es- /
sential characteristics of the platform
adopted there.
at seems to be the product of men |
who have lived for many years in the |
blind stupor of moral negation," he |
said, adding that the Republican can
didate ultimately chosen wasn't in !
fact the choice of any considerable /
number Of the delegates and that the |
nomination could not evoke any pop
ular response, and indeed, it failed to
create any enthusiasm in the Repub-
lican convention itself"
At San Francisco, he said, 'the can
didates emerged from the delibera-
tions of that body (the Democratic
convention) as the free choice of a
united party, bearing no faint upon
their title to leadership, honor and
respect"
"The Republican party since 1912"
Mr.. Cummings said, "has been the
party of destructive criticism It has
made a speciality of fault nding. In
peace, in war and in our relations
with other countries, the settled pur-
pose of Republican leadership has
been to make trouble, irrespective of
the merits of any problem involved.
1t has persistently sought to increase
irrita ton and discomfort rather than
to allay them. Fro mevery element of
discora, and even of s0dition, it has
sought to draw some resultant Of par
tisan advantage. It's purpose has
been and still is, reputation and re-
treat"

with California tourist inducements
during the fall and winter.
The Middle West farmer found
himself "ripe'' for winter in Cali
fornia, and he went.
Railroads California-ward have
been swamped all winter. Now they
are swamped trying to bring back
the crowd. Virtually every trans
continental train is operating east
ward from California in two lengthy
sections. AS one example, the Con-
solidated ticket Office, on Broad
way, Los Angeles, is q veritable
reservation" madhouse. From
morning until the closing hour at
night long lines Of travellers stand
before every ticket window, and
there are thirty ticket windows.
Thirty clerks wear a narrowed,
hunted expression from the constant
Chinese puzzle Of booking reserva-
tions from two weeks to six weeks
in advance.
A New Yorker seeking a reserva
tion on any Of the transcontinental
roads homeward visited the Los
Angeles ticket Office three times,
standing in line a total Of two and
one-haf hours, and finally was
forced to telegraph to San Fran
cisco for reservations on the Over
land Limited from that city or re-
main in Los Angeles for another
period Of two weeks.
Los Angeles hotelkeepers declare
the congestion has never been
equaled. Los Angeles boarding
houses have been full to overflow
ing since early winter. Furnished
apartments, normally sufficient to
house the transient trade for years
in the southern California citv.
were at premium in January and
impossible to find in February.

graphic reservations. And so tits
with all Of them.
San Diego preachers have been
carrying on a campaign against Tia
Juana, the small Mexican town
which lies fourteen miles south of
San Diego, a few hundred yards
over the international line. Few
Americans who visit San Diego and
vicinity leave before they have
visited Tia Juana's racetrack,
casino and one-hundred foot bar at
least once.
In pamphlet which was prepared
for campaign to "clean up" San
Diego it was charged that the Ameri-
can promoters realize daily profit
of SIS. 1000, of which a percentage
is paid to Governor Cantu, the
Mexican ruler of Lower California.
The "clean up" pamphlet, which is
said to have been written at the in
stigation of the ministers, charges
among other things that Tia Juana
is center Of white slavery and a
"nestful Of vice adder's eggs" which
threaten to "hatch out and fill the
land with Beelzebub brood"
The casino at Tia Juana is a
mammoth hall in which roulette
wheels are constantly spinning, and
other games Of chance, from "black
jack" to AFRICAN golf" keep the
smoky atmosphere tingling with ex-
citement. American silver money
is the medium Of play, and it
abounds in considerable stacks on
all the tables.
The complaining pamphlet de-
clares that all these games are
crooked.

on the American side, arc lengthy
railroad passenger trains which
bring tourists in the morning and
take them back at night.
The racetrack is also near by. ard
playing the poniesS is one Of tho
tourists favorite sports.
To Have "Suicide Alleys
Whether, as charged in the
pamphlet, Tia Juana is the end
Of a white slaver's market Is not
apparent to the average tour
ist, and if such conditions exist
they are kept under cover. How
ever, this booklet, which is, in the
main, unquotable in a New York
newspaper, forecasts dire things for
tourists who flock to the Mexican
side in future. Naming a we'll
known man Of San Diego, it adds:
"He is working hard on his Sun
set Inn cabaret, the palatial annex
to the gangs Monte Carlo casino
at Tia Juana. Artists Of worldwide
fame are working on tho interior
decorations. In order to make his
Tia Juana Monte Carlo a replica of
the famous, or infamous, Monte
Carlo in Europe, the baron is medi
tating the erection Of a Suicide
alley where the penniless loser cal
blow out his brains in harmonious
surroundings, and a morgue de
luxe, where the body can lie in state
until identified and taken away.

" Mother is dressed in gown that

Sisters dress doesn't come so low
in the neck as big sisters baby
blue, but there is plenty of time for

Finally, the Iowa agricultural
magnate and his family repair up
stairs to their parlor, two bedrooms
and bath, and another day in sunny
California is done. And they do not
get up at 4 in the morning.
1t isn't the Iowa farmer exclu-

nearly all students Of the matter are
agreed that the United States would
have a larger population to-day if
there had been no immigration since
1920, and, it Is needless to add, q
much more homogeneous popula-
ton"
Mr.. Hall also points out that holes
in the population Of a country are
chiefly filled by the children Of the
lower classes. In connection with
the effect Of emigration on the
population Of European countries
he says:
According to Professor Pearson
more than one-half the births in
England are now from the lowest
one-sixth of the population. In
Italy a similar condition fills the
vacuum left by the very large emf
grafton from there to North and
South America"
SO long as the community is rela-
lively homogeneous differences in
wealth and social position do not
affect the birth rate or do so only
after q considerable time. says Mr..
Hall. 1t Is when the mentally in
ferior enter by immigration that the
natives are unwilling to have their
children associate with the children
Of these immigrants In work or So
cial life, thus lowering the birth
rata. He continues:
"Races follow Cresham's law as

cession.'"
Those conducting their campaign
against Tia Juana call the. road
from San Diego to the Mexican
town the ''road to hell" How
ever, tens Of thousands Of tourists
travel the road when they are visit
ing that portion Of southern Cali
fornia.
Whether at Tia Juana or else
where in southern California, this
year a stream Of legal tender has
poured into the Golfers Of the Cali
fornians which would make Wall
Street take considerable notice.
The Midwest farmer who has
'Slacked up a little" out there in
the West this year is given high
credit for swelling the influx, but,
according to economists who are
watching the United States slide
through the most amazing state of
inflated prosperity and gay abandon
in history. the Midwest farmer is
best prepared to "slack."
We may pity the poor farmer, but
we had better envy him. He is the

arise are what to do about it. how
long tho old stock will still hold out
az an appreciable element Of the

DR.. Amy Hewes, professor Of
economies and sociology at Mount

All these things are "on the

Middle West, and so long as some
body is there to feed them who can
blame father, mother and the

California sunshine?
The farmer, above all, can best
afford to-day to pay the first class
hotel prices, ranging from 45 cents
to 80 cents for two-egg omelets, from
20 cents to rs cents for potatoes, SIS

oranges, which he cannot raise, but
which he may see by the billions in

The Middle West farmer and the
millionaire can stand the gaff in an
American first class hotel to-day.
but whether the general public can
stand it long is an economic oues
tion which puzzles fancy economists.
The plight Of the modern house

there is involves time, expense and

anything been gained? Will any one
say that the races that have sup

England are any better, or as good,

had not been lowered?
In community Of many races
there Is either crossbreeding or
there Is not. If there is, the chill
dren Of such crqssbreeding are liable
to inherit two souls, two tempera-

Can't Afford Children

Margaret Sanger explains the
economic action Of food Of In
ferior immigrants.
The influx Of huge numbers Of
lower class immigrants into a coun-
try" she says, in her new book,
woman and the New Race" soon
to be published by Brentano's,
means that the economic burden Of
the natives is greatly INCREASED.
They have to carry practically all
tho weight Of the immigrants. The
consequence Is that the natives can
not afford TO have children. They
cannot support and educate large
families according to the standards
Of living and education they have
set for themselves and, therefore.
they see to it that they do not have
large families. Meanwhile, tho low
grade immigrants, being without
reason or desire to restrict their
families, propagate like animals.
The result is rapid increase In the
lower grades Of the population.
among which will be found an in
creasing proportion Of deficients.
coupled with an even more rapid
decrease in the higher classes. The
final result is the disappearance Of
the native stock
