many from the opposite party. The
speaker said he believes every man
and woman wal s things done right
and tho Il is hard to hear ones
party leaders or, cized IL is good for
the country.
Mr.. Robson said that down in
Boyd, Jessop d in Louisville the
Democrats are laying the most tre-
mendous issue ~ the League OF Ma
lions. In the Elue Grass they are
chiefly appealing to peoples preju-
dices, stating tat with the election
of Harding we shall have mixed
schools, churches, trains and that
that the whites and colored people
will mix up and marry. He then
shattered such nonsense.
Mr.. Robsion said the first official
vote he cast in Washington was for
the realization of woman's suffrage
There are millions OF foreigners in
our cities with no knowledge OF what
it means to be Americans. The good
American mothers will lift up the
meaning of the word. IL you here
do not take a hand there are lot of
women in the cities who do not care
for your home, church or land, who
will.
when you vote for the things
you think best you have done a good
days work"
Senator Beckham was first for the
League of Nations as presented by
Mr.. Wilson. His last vote was against
it. It is you Democrats who still
stand by it that are wrong.
Tom Watson of Georgia ran on an
anti-administration ticket and beat
both opponents. He stated over his
signature that but for the mulish
obstinacy of President Wilson, we
should have had peace long ago
If there is any class of men who
know what the league of nations
means it is the U. S. Senators. They
have heard it discussed and re-dis-
cussed. Seventy-six out of SO U. S.
Senators are against the league OF
nations as insisted on by Pres. Will
son. Out of forty-seven Democratic
Senators. twenty-seven are against
the so called Wilson League.
Congressman Robson then anal
yzed the voting power of the various
nations and conclusively proved that
the United States would be at the
mercy of the British Empire and that
its vote could be nullified by Liberia.
He also stated that under the
treaty as it now stands we should be
called upon to defend the present
frontiers of any and every nation
that is party to the league, wheth-
er just or not. This guarantee can
be given in only two ways. By Amer
lean money and the lives of Ameri-
can boys. 'DO you want it?" he
asked.
Those who heard Congressman
Robsion felt the earnestness of his
Americanism and also felt that they
can trust his good sense and patriot
ism to the limit

There has been some criticism he

Let me say to you that in dealing

fore us, and so with others l set about
to protect our interests with the best
