Doughboy Urges
Endowment Plan

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: Can you find room in your
paper for this letter, so that some
other buddy" or "gob" may be
prompted to offer better sugges-
tion similar TO mine and stop cry
ing for bonus? We have no de-
sire TO be classed as beggars.
When the call came for men |,
like many others, went over, and
after paying SIS for allotment and
$3.50 for insurance had very little
TO send 10 those l left behind. I
could use the bonus-I need it-but
It would only increase taxes and
carry with it the stain Of charity.
| suggest a ten-year endowment
Insurance policy at a very low rate.
This plan would enable US to look
forward to old age without fear of
poverty and spending our last few
years in a soldiers home.

Protection for All Glasses

We maintain that the relations
between capital and labor shall be
on an equitable basis. In fact, we
declare there is no real difference
between them: they are all workers
and shall have the same protection
under law. To those who insist upon
the classification capital and labor,
be it known that one so-called class
must have the privilege of using
the same methods and practices as
should be no distinction, as all are
aiming at Practically the same thing,
and Whether they work with the
hand, the brain or a combination
of both, the same laws, regulations,
should govern them.-P. Ney Wilson,
New Haven, Conn.

Sir: An important plank in the Re-

sons as are known for years back. to be
Just. incorruptble and fearless, for
without these qualities we will sink to
such a level that our government will
become the laughing stock of the whole
earth, but with these qualities in our
governmental officials we will become
the head of all nations.

Heed Call of Humanity

Tho Republican party believes with
Lincoln in the liberation Of the en-
shaved, with Mckinley in succoring
the oppressed, with Roosevelt in a
square deal for every: man, with
Monroe in the protection Of the
younger nations Of this hemisphere
and with Washington in freedom
from entangling European alliances.
The manhood and purse Of America
shall ever be ready for the call of
humanity, but America alone shall be
the judge of its duty and the director
of its own efforts.-W. D

Elimination of Waste

Legislation in itself cannot reduce
the present high cost of living. We
believe, however, that the Republican
party can lead the way to an appre-
ciable elimination of waste in gov
ernmental expenditures by the adop-
ton of an annual national budget.
The same to be carefully formulated
and adopted, faithfully and honestly
idly and thoroughly checked.--E. P. S.

Enough Sedition Laws

Unnecessary and redundant lcgis-
lation not only serves no useful pur-
pose but leads to confusion in the
public mind as to what is the law
Believing that strict and impartial
enforcement of the present laws pro-
vides ample protection against all
danger of the overthrow of the gov
ernment by force and violence, we
hereby register our disapproval Of
any proposed additional sedition law.

Industrial Training System

We believe that all youths Of both
sexes, before reaching the ago Of
twenty-onc, should be required to
give one year to universal service,
such service to be industrial in char
acter, giving especial emphasis to
those branches which tend to elimi-
nate class and sectional prejudice.

military drill for the males should be
compulsory-Ha Harold Charming, $40

Hands OFF in Europe

The policy of participation in
the political affairs Of other coun-
tries having heretofore been. success
full in developing the wealth Of the
country and keeping us out of for
eign wars, should be continued. Our
sympathy should be extended to any
people who are endeavoring to at

sible and not inconsistent with our

HIGHER Wages for Teachers

The Republican party. believing
that the high standard of education
set by our country should still be

not be done in face of the present
shortage of instructors, does hereby

Impartiality in Laws

The Republican party maintains
that the interests of the majority,
as expressed at the ballot box, are
above those of any one class. Hence.
it favors impartial maintenance of

agent of protiteering, capitalism, nor
the ally of militant unionism when
