VI. DEMOCRATS
FLAY RECORD
0FC, PARTY
Delegates In Convention
Demand Repeal of
Primary Law

BURLINGTON, Sept. 28-Fully
100 Democrats from all over Yer
mont attended an enthusiastic con-
vention of their party at the New
Sherwood hotel yesterday after
noon, when the platform on which
an active campaign for the coming
election in November will be based
was adopted, and the convention
addressed by Dr. Daniel L. Cady
of this city, Ex-Attorney-General
Thomas j. Boynton Of Massachus-
etts and James P. Leamy Of Rut-
land, Democratic nominee for at
torney-general, who was chosen
chairman at the convention.
7 The convention was called to
order by Park H. Pollard of Proc
torsville, chairman of the Demo
cratic State committee, who stated
that the State committee had choS-
en- Mr.. Leamy as Temporary chair
man and George X. Stackpole of
Winooski secretary. These men
were made permanent officers Of
the convention by unanimous vote.
Members of the State and county
committee were elected and the
State committee was authorized to
fiji any vacancies in the committee
which may occur The speakers
all predicted that this was a Demo-
cratic year and were optimistic for
the future.
The principal speaker was DR..
Daniel L. Cady, who was introduce
ed by Chairman Leamv as the man
whose poetic writing was the most
redeeming feature of the Republi-
can press of the state.
The State Democrat platform
adopted at the Democratic con-
vcntion left little unsaid in con-
demnation of the Harding admin
istration. It declared "the Re
publican leaders have divided our
country'S war associates, dis
glaced the peace, deluded the
people, deserted the wounded, de-
ceived the veteran, relieved the
proiteers', and that "the Hard
ding administration has cut down
our standards of living, cut down
our wages, increased our bur
dens."
Turning to the GO. P. in Yer
mont, the platform declared: "In
Vermont the Republican leaders
are worse than in the Nation, for
they have been in power longer
since 1854 During that time
they have in effect sold their nom
nations to public offices to one
rich man after another.
Higher taxes, useless offices,
waste and extravaganza that has
driven Nelmonters to other States
TO avoid such burdens are also
charged to the Republican party
in this State.
The repeal of the direct phi
mary, "a failure except for
wealthy candidates" was demand
ed.
The following were elected to
the State and county committees
from the various counties:
Caledonia county-State COM
mittee, A, H. Gleason, St. Johns
bury
Essex county-State committee,
Carroll Jenkins, Orleans; Mrs.
George u. Gilchrist, Newport.
County committee, X. P. Skinner,
Newport; Mrs. r. c. Sisco, New
port; William F. Pike, Derby; H.
b. Parkhurst, North Troy; Fl. v
Hughes, Albany.

Starvation in Russia

One shudders at the reports from the famine
districts of Russia. Between 100000 and l.
100000 persons are destined to die there before
the next crop is harvested. In one district the
American relief agencies are feeding 100000.
but the death rate continued undated. Hospitals
are crowded with thousands suffering from in
testinal diseases due to eating poisonous sub
stances in lieu of food. Cholera and typhus are
taking an awful toll Of lives.
Drivers of relief wagons have been killed by
the starving populace. Horses have been taken
from the wagons and killed for food. Some relief
workers. fearing their lives have deserted their
posts. In some districts it is not safe to venture
on the streets, as men and women killed for
their clothing.
The intensity of the suffering certainly
teaches the folly Of overthrowing the established
system of economics and of substituting the
dreams of men with paper theories.
