The town basketball teams repre-

met on the local high school gym
floor last Friday evening with the
result an easy one-sided victory for
the Wolves. The visitors played a
clean, game contest but lacked the
experience needed to cope with the
local athletes.
King and Poore were back in the
lineup in the forward positions and
showed remarkable speed and excel
lent scoring ability.
Berlin at center and Handler at
guard made the top records for bas-
ket shooting with an even dozen
each. When Frahm gets back in his
position, the "Big Five" will be a
combination that will seek far for
its equal. Hall, Pouder and LEM
each took turns at guard and showed
up well. The lineup and scoring
records follow:

agement credit must be given to this
Congress, but in it's enactment Demo-
Gratis and Republicans zealously CO.
operated, so that neither party can
set up exclusive claim to praise due
for this constructive and necessary
Legislation. Aside from routine work,
there is very little else that calls for
notice in the record. There are acts
of omission which the country con-
dennis, which calls for its sternest GEN.
sure. First and worst of all is the
failure of this Congress to reduce the
costs of Government and to tighten
the burdens of taxation. But it was
too busy killing the treaty, fighting
the President, playing politics, to re-
lieve the people of the imposts that
strip them of their substance. The ex-
cess profits taxes are devouring the
investment funds of the country. The
effect must soon be felt as a check
to industrial expansion, as an OBJ
stacle to the free outflow of our COM
modities. 1t is plain that this Con-
gress is made up of economic litter
ates and incapables.- New York
Times.
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1920-06-18
OUR WORST CONGRESS

The first regular session of the
Sixty-sixth Congress was doubtless
the most discreditable in the coun-
try's history. 1t came to that bad
eminence because, from the very be-
ginning, it was dominated by an ig-
noble spirit of narrow partisanship and
by malevolent personal hostility to
the President.
The Senate has sore need of every
item that can be put to its credit, for
when all other particulars of NAL
feasance and nonfeasance of this Con-
gress have been forgotten, the coun-
try will recall with shame and the
world with amazement and regret the
rejection of the Treaty of Versailles
and the covenant of the League of
Nations after a wrangle marked by
every circumstance of passion and hy-
pocracy and false pretense that oc-
cupied that body for the greater part
of the year. The record is now made
up and the country knows that under
the leadership of Mr.. Lodge, with the
cooperation of johnson, Borah and
the Battalion of Death, the Repub-
lican Senate was resolved to wreck
the treaty and to destroy the Cove
nant., The President would at any
time have accepted reservations ,ac-
complishing the legitimate purpose of
adapting the treaty to our constitu-
tional practice and our traditions.
The Senate would accept only destruc-
tive resolutions.
For the act providing for the re-
turn of the railroads to private man.
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1920-06-18

made merely that the Republicans be-
lieved that the chaotic conditions fol-
lowing the war made it imperative to
return to peace-time basis as speed
lily as possible. No sound arguments
were advanced in support of the Re-
publican attitude.
While the motives expressed in the
constitutional government" agricul-
ture and industrial relations planks
are worthy ones, no definite program
is set out, except proposal to estab-
fish woman's bureau in the Depart
ment of Labor. The planks relating
to banking and currency, high cost Of
living, budget, immigration and mer-
chant marine provide no specific rem
edies for fancied ills and all are col
ored by denunciation of the admins
tration and endorsement of Republi-
can Legislation.
The Republican platform of 1920 is
far from masterpiece; it is in no
sense a great declaration of fine prin-
ciples. AS criterion of what a Re-
publican administration promises, it
is treacherous vehicle for a presi-
dental candidate Cape Girardeau

The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1920-06-18
A "STRADDLE" PLATFORM

The Republican platform makers at
Chicago appear to have failed 70
grasp the proper conception OF what
Should constitute the platform OF n
political party. One could reasonably
lave expected something definite at
ter the utterances of the various lead
crs and after Lodges keynote speech;
Yet the document, as framed and
adopted at tho Republican convention,
is a vague end rambling declaration
of grievance into every line of which
is written denunciation of President
Wilson and the administration.
The League of Nations and the
Peace Treaty were the two paramount
iseues upon which the Republican par
ty has stood in its fight against the
administration. For the past twelve
months these have been the storm
center about which have been waged
Congressional conflicts in which Bit
terness and acrimony have been es-
pccially marked.
The Republicans were against the
covenant and the treaty. This was
their battle cry; but when the show
down came and the declarations were
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1920-06-18

made public, both issues were prompt
ly "straddled" while the general tone
of the League plank is "anti', it is
impossible to learn from the text
whether the Republicans are against
the league with reservations or for it
with reservations. In fact the voter
who attempts to determine the par
tvs attitude by perusal Of the
league plank is apt to become lost in
a bewildering maze of generalities.
1t is manifestly unfair to the Re-
publican voters, who may have as
sumed clearly defined stand to ask
to support a policy which is not a
policy, but merely an attempt at
evasion. The league plank is "safe"
as far as Republican candidates are
concerned. 1t is satisfactory to john
son as we'll as to Lowden, Wood, Poin-
dexter, Harding, Butler and the rest
of the string of candidates; it is a
plank upon which even McCumber of
North Dakota or Murray Crane of
Massachusetts, could make q race.
This issue-dodging policy appears
to have been followed religiously by
the platform makers! Regarding the
peace treaty, the document is partic-
ularly indefinite. The statement is
