time HE
SHOULD Ri,
RETIRED

Senator LaFollette has asked that
the people of Wisconsin re-elect him
"on his record" The Citizens Repu,-
lican State Conference accepts the
challenge. 1t demands that Senator
LaFollette be retired from public life
"on his record" 1t charges that the
record is one singularly unfruitful of
results which has put the people of
Wisconsin in false light before the
country and before the world 1t
charges that thousands of pages of
congressional record have been brot
forth and not scintilla of evidence
found which entities LaFollette to re-
election.
The Citizens Republican State Con-
ference charges further, without re-
servation or qualification, that Sena-
tor LaFollette is not republican and
that the appearance of his name on
the republican ballot at the primaries
is farce. He has denounced its lead
ership and its principles and accepted
the endorsement of the socialist party
of Wisconsin. The socialists have left
vacant the place where the name of
their candidate for United States SEN
ator should go. That is the place
where the name Of Senator La Toilette
rightfully belongs in the coming pri-
maries.
The congressional record has re-
fiected the true LaFollette 1t has
demonstrated conclusively that he has
outIived his usefulness as a represen-
tative in congress and shown clearly
why thousands of the real progress
sives of our state are no longer to be
found under his standard Senator
LaFollette has become an obstruction
to true progress. He does not truly
represent the sentiments of the citizen
ry of Wisconsin. He has become en-
bittered through inability to realize
his ambition to become president of
the United States and therein, we be-
lieve, is to be found the real reason
for his opposition to the leaders of re-
publicanism. He is an apostle of dis
content and fomenter of class hatred
and group prejudice He is an unre
liable and unfaithful public servant,
either incapable or unwilling to serve
all the people He has exaggerated,
multiplied and aggravated the i'm
perfections which we all admit exist
in our form of government which can
not be perfection because it's the crea-
ton of human minds but which we
nevertheless declare to be the best
which has ever existed in the world.
He has refused to see the good in our
government and in our laws and ne
has refused to devote his mind toward
constructive policies to remedy the
evils. He has misled many of our ci-
tizens who looked to him for guidance
and saw in him the qualities of true
and sincere leader. He has proven
false prophet.
The congressional record has shown
each and everyone of these statements
to be true and constitutes perma-
nent and prima facia Indictment.
The Citizens Republican State Con-
ference demands that Senator LaFoi-
lette be retired ON HIS RECORD.

standing controversy with respect to
the unfulfilled provisions OF the Treaty

tho Peruvian delegates, Or. Melton

Cement Men Encouraged
To Organize, Says Hurley

Edward n Hurley, chairman Of the
Federal Trade Comm mssion when the
Cement Manufacturers Protective AS
sociation was formed in 1916, was
called ns a witness for the defense
yesterday at the triel of the cement
manufacturers under indictment in
Federal Court for alleged violation
Of The Sherman law. lie testified that
the government had encouraged the
formation Of such trade associations
as That in the cement industry which
is now under attack as a trust, and
said that in May, 1916, he had in
form cd the cement manufacturers that
the Attorney Genera would not uu-
dertakc criminal prosecution under the
sherman law except in extreme cases.
When questioned as to the uni
formity Of prices alleged to have pre-
vailed in the industry since the for
nation Of the association, Mr.. Hurley
declared that such a condition was apt
to be found when ommodity was
distributed largely through dealers.
He said that an investigation which
he undertook in 1915 at the request Of
President Wilson had shown that un-
fair competition frequently resulted
from ignorance Of actual costs. and
that for this reason the commission
had recommended the adoption of uni
form cost accounting plans and the in

Britain D;scerns Basis
For Further Negotiation

GENOA, May II BY The Associate, Il
Press. In behaN Of the British dele
eatior. Sir Edward Grieg. commenting
o0 TIC Russien reply, said:
Russia complains II being asked to
undertake serious obligations without
getting anything, except rather vague
promises. contingent promises in the
way OF credits. They clearly want to
know before accepting liabilities how
serious these liabilities are before ex-
changing them against credits.
"Onc Of the satisfactory parts OF
the reply is where the Russian delega
tion expresses the desire for peace and
readiness to JOIN III the non-aggre SIS on
pact"
Sir Edward said that the British
delegation was meeting tonight to
weigh the document carefully. and
probably would consult with the Allies
la.e tonight or tomorrow. adding:
We must deal with the reply on its
merits; we cannot use haste. The
document certainly calls for re-
joindeY"
"po you consider the document a
basis for further negotiations ?" ne
Was asked
ut is the basis of reply, and
very effective one" said Sir Edward
Asked to elaborate this statement he
explained that the Allies undoubtedly
would reply vigorously to the first
section Of the Soviet note, but might
consider the closing section as a basis
for further negotiations.

behind the demands Of these business
leaders,
Tho Russian demand for a loan of
81 900 100000 from the Western powers
is regarded here as ridiculous, as none
of the European nations is in posi-
tion to offer such sums and the United
States in all probability would not CON
slider the matter at all. AS the Boil
sheviki link their demand for money
with their refusal to stop spreading
propaganda, it is supposed here that
the Reds plan to use what money they
get in renewed efforts to upset the
world.
"Lc Temps finds only two explana-
tions for the tactics Of Premier LLOYD
George at the conference. The frat is
that at any cost he wants the gather
ing to succeed and he is ready to
sacrifice European peace for his cleo
toral needs. The other is that the
British Premier wants to regroup the
European powers, Having France and
Belgium outside. This newspaper
thinks that both explanations might
be possible simultaneously.
"Facing this destructive policy it
says, "wc must more than ever affirm
our policy Of peace"
The newspaper says that so long as
Russia and Germany do not sign the
proposed aggression pact in which
they would recognize present frontiers
as permanent it is plain from where
the dangers TO Europe omanatc Every
ono admits, says the paper, that other
nations have a right 20 take precau-
tions against this menace

LONDON, May ll.-The failure Of
! the Irish peace committee to agree did
not daunt the Dali Eireann, which to-
day ordered the committee to meet
again Saturday and renew its efforts TO
find q basis of undcrsta anding that will
unite all factions. Reading Of the re-
ports for the Free State and Republican
! members Of the committee showed that
the chief hitch had arisen over the re
fusal Of the Republicans to accept the
Irish army's declaration that major
ity of the Irish people favored the
treaty with England 1t was clear that
no peace agreement could be reached
on any such statement. and the reports
made it evident that the committee had
at no time been anywhere near to an
understanding The Dali adjourned
until next Wednesday, when the peace
committee will report again. Mean
while the truce continues
The prot treaty members Of the COM
mittee, the report said had proposed an
election in ireland on q basi. that
would have resulted in a coalition cab
met, but this was turned down by the
republicans. Political factors were re
sponsble for the committees confcs-
sion of failure, but the split in the
army was also taken into consideration.
Agreement Held Imperative
Among members of the Dali Eireann
it was said that the position Of the
army made an agreement necessary.
The possibility was expressed that the
demand of tho southern ecctioA of
rebels for peace on d basis that '-euld
prevent challenging the government
might bring the northern republicans
into line, because Of the general de-
sire to avoid civil war.
Replying to Lord Carson's bitter at
tack on the British governments Irish
policy in the House Of Lords tonight,
Lord Birkenhead, Lord High Chanccl-
lor. said he had been Informed that the
Free Staters would win a big majority
in tavor of the treaty when an election
was held.

Russia, Indicated in Clause 13. As this
question is part of the totality of cues
tons, political, territorial and other
wise, at issue between Russia and Ru-
mania, 1t cannot be examined sep
arately."
Discussing the financial clause, the
reply, after remarking that the United
States repudlated treaties of it's pred =
eeessors, England and Spain, says:
ne governments OF victorious states
did not hesitate during the war, and
especially az the conclusion Of the
treaties OF peace, to seize the prop
erty Of subjects of the vanquished
states situated in their territory, even
in foreign territory. Conforma bly,
with these precedents. Russia cannot
be obliged to assume any responsible
ity whatever toward foreign powers
and their citizens for annulment of
public debts and the naturalization
Of private property"
Replying to Clause VII Of the memo
randum the Russians say:
"The pourparlers have been rendered
more difficult still by the obstinac., Of
certain states in imposing upon Rus
sia, through Article VII, obligations
conflicting with her social system and
with Article A of the Cannes resciu-
tions.
Clause VII begins with beautiful
preamble, recognizing the sovereign
right OF Russia to organize within her
own territory her regime of property,
her economic system ard her govern
ment, but the text of the clause itself
is III fragrant contradiction with the
preamble.
The New York herald., 1922-04-02

ter of modern back yard gossip, or,
to use an American comparison, il
is an affair of a lot of evil minded
old women in porch rockers on q
boarding house veranda talking over
that awful story about Bathsheba
and other ladies who were no better
than they should be. Even the in
cident of Abishag, the Shunammite
maiden, is given with similar modern
improvements. We are told that
"for a time at least the old man got
a little comfort"
The thing is wholly vicious. Ii
may have some appeal to well mean
ing, not over intelligent readers to
whom it may come as, in some sort. a
"Bible story" and therefore guaran-
teed all right. 1t is thus capable Of
doing real harm. 1t has not the
shadow of an artistic excuse.
