HARDING URGES
CONVENTION AS
PARTY MACHINE
Lincoln s Career Held
Argument to Go Back
to Old Practice.

Washington, Feb. 11.-President
Harding in a Lincoln day address be-
fore the League of Republican State
Clubs of the District of Columbia Sat
urday night said he craved "the return
of intelligent conventions in the 1e-
public"
, II had rather have men appeal for
popular support on the pronounce
ments of party conventions, uttering
their convictions the president said,
than to have the appeal of the indi-
vidual for his particular locality.
Il would rather trust the declara-
expressing the conscience of its mem
bership in representative convention,
looking forward to a successful ap-
peal to the conscience and convictions
Of the country" he added, than l
would to the ephemereal passing whims
of public life.
Il believe in political parties. Ours
is the representative popular govern
ment through political parties. and if |
could express one outstanding wish
tonight I would rather have little
more of the party spirit Of Lincoln's
time than some l know of nowadays.
Mr.. Harding's First Party Feast
Lincoln was the great partisan. No
greater or better republican ever lived.
And he believed. as / know you believe,
that the greatest opportunities OF serv-
ice are in the party
The president was accompanied by
Mrs. Harding. who, he said. was at
tending her first republican banquet
Discussing the Importance Of party
interest and party spirit and party ac-
tivity, Mr.. Harding said that II don't
forget that / first required an express
sion Of the trust of the republican
party before / could have a position
of trust in the nation"
II never forget" he added, that it
was not /. the individual, who won the
election of 1920, but the United States
Of America gave its expression Of con-
fidence and hope in the party of Lin
coin, Mckinley and Roosevelt"
Great Test of Lincoln
Referring to Lincoln and the diff
culties and criticism which he faced,
Mr.. Harding said:
''Do not forget how they came to
the master martyr, who was lashed by
al cry tongues as no public servant
was ever 1ashed. He drank from as
bitter q cup as ever touched human
lips; but his faith was unaffected, his
was undaunted and he wrote
the supreme chapter in the life OF
the republic because in the com.nit-
ment Of his party he was devoted to
union and nationality and martyrdom
revealed him as the most colossal
ytatemen of all times"

ing implicated.
eve are not rampant with vice.
'"The American public did not attack
all governors because a charge was
filed against q certain state execu-
tive.
''The American public did not attack
all ministers because a wanton crime
was charged to preacher Of the
gospel.
IAN we ask is that the public bear
with this industry and not accept

Marriages Exceed Divorces
I'VE are just normal human beings.
We are not ethereal, and do not want
to be regarded as such.
"Our happy marriages far exceed
those of divorce, our church-going
population is the equal Of any Of
those of any other profession.
I'VE are law-abiding citizens and we
rear families.
And yet William Taylor's death
has resulted in aspersions being cast
upon this industry and upon us. We
are striving to make the world bet
ter place to live in through the screen.
And we. who have accepted that re-
sponsibility placed upon us by the pub
lie through their patronage, feel it
affront (for them) to as
sumo through innuendo that we are
not worthy of that honor.
I'VE have striven hard and, we be-

we expect support, at least until ru-
NOR is substantiated by fact.
Want to Live Up to Popularity
1--WE deny that motion picture peo-
pie are pictured. We deny that we
are rampant with crime and vice. We
deny that motion picture people are
sinners, and we only quote the Bible
to those who malign us: Let he with
out sin cast the first stone
1--WE are a part of every American
home, not through any selfish desire,
but because it is the will of the pub
lie. The public has virtually accepted
us as a member of each family. Yet
they do not. we believe, accord us
the same treatment that they would

RAIDERS SLAY
FOUR OFFICERS
IN IRISH ATTACK
Score Captured in Bat
tie at Clones Railway
Station in Ulster.
Mob Holds Up Lorry
of Specials and Forces
Them to Surrender.

Belfast, Feb. 11.-(By The Associ-
ated Press -Four Ulster special con-
stables were shot to death, number
wounded and the remainder of party
of 20 captured at the railroad station
at Clones Saturday afternoon.
e. Reports were received here Saturday
from the Ulster border that none of
the captives taken in this weeks kid
napings would be freed before next
week.
The train had entered the station
and some of the specials were get
ting into the carriages when Irish re-
publican army men with rifles and a
fire on the specials and four of the
constables were killed. Some of the
others were wounded, some taken
prisoners and the remainder escaped.
The republican army men then fled.
Taken unawares, the specials had no
time to fire shot.
Clones is in that part of Ulster
which is included in teh free state ter
ritory. 1t is near the border.
Belfast received it's first intilnation
of the tragedy through a message to
the station master at the Great North
ern terminus to the effect:
"Send HOs4more troops, regular
police or specials by train" Then fol-
lowed the news Of the shooting.
The Belfast police declared the
specials were lined against the wall
and moved down.
Sir james Craig, premier OF
Ulster, has advised an urgent re-
monstrance to Premier Lloyd George,
Winston Churchill and Viscount Fitz-
Allen in which immediate action is de-
manded.
These reports said the Ulster spe-
cial constables and the contingents of
the Irish republican army were watch
ing each other across the Fermanagh-
Monaghan line. Policing is so rigid that
business is suspended.
The border specials were halting
every passing vehicle in the direction
of Newton Butler and Rosslea, while
@ few miles away, at Clones, the re-
publican army was doing the same
thing.
Sir James Craig, the Ulster premier,
announced on arriving from London,
that he had been assured four addi-
tional battalions Of troops which would
be sent to Belfast imm ediately.
He said he had set no time limit on
the British action to secure the release
of the unionist prisoners taken in the
recent raids This statement was sup
Elementary to his declaration before
leaving London that in the event of
failure of the British authorities to
secure the release of the kidnapped men,
he would carry out his own plans.
Shooting occurred in the North
Queen street area of Belfast Saturday
morning. Police re-inforcements were
sent to the scene.
