establish a government of their own.
Senator Reeds attitude on these
matters had nothing to do with the
anger that caused the Democratic
party in Missouri to repudiate him
in 1920. The issue between him
and his party does not rest upon
relatively unimportant acts which
he presents in detail in his plea for
support, but upon the highly impor
tant acts in opposition to the pri-
mary demands of the party, discus
sion of which he now carefully
avoids. Let bygones be bygones,"
he has said. Yet he declares that
the test is whether he was right or
wrong. Right or wrong on what?
On the small matters of no particu-
lar interest, or upon the big ques-
tions that were and are the core
and circumference of Democratic
party principles. No man did more
than Reed to defeat the Democratic
party in 1920 by his constant vigor-
Gus and vituperative opposition to
these principles. Was he right or
wrong in this? That, he says, is the
test. If he was right, we repeat, the
party was wrong, and support of
Reed must be viewed as a confession
that it was wrong.
In September 1919, when Presi-
dent Wilson was turning eastward
from California, in that great speak
ing tour which ended so tragicaily
a few daye later, Senator Reed made
four-hOur speech in the Senate,
one OF many such, opposing the pur-
poses of that historic journey. Was
he right? If so, Wilson was wrong,
reasonably wrong. In April 1920,
the Missouri Democratic Convention
refused, by a vote of 1870 to 429, to
permit Reed to be a delegate to the
national convention and in its plat
form instructed the Missouri dele
cation to vote as unit for the
adoption of platform approving
the League of Nations without de-
structive reservations on the part OF
the Senate" Was it right in this?
If so, Reed was wrong. Was the
Democratic party right when in ma
tional convention it demanded the
ratification of the covenant of the
League of Nations and declared that
"only by doing this may we hope to
aid effectively in the restoration of
order throughout the world and to
take the place which we should as
The Missouri herald., 1922-06-09

sumo in the front rank of spiritual,
commercial and industrial advance
ment?" If the party was right, then
Reed was wrong. Reed was bitter
ly, viciously, virulently against all
this, and aided nightly in over
whelming the party in defeat. Was
he right, or was the party right?
That Is the issue.
The party was right, never so SUI
premely right in all its history, as
the course of subsequent events is
constantly proving. And Reed was
wrong, enormously wrong. The par
ty cannot indorse Reed without re-
pudiating the finest and highest
principles it has ever advocated. 1t
cannot indorse Reed without strik-
ing a deliberate blow at the great
leader who led the people through
the nations most appalling crisis,
and set American standards of right
eousness upon heights never before
attained, only to fall himself before
the onslaughts of such men as
James A. Reed. The Democratic
party, in all the years of it's history,
never achieved so much or so fully
justified it's existence as it did under
Woodrow Wilson. Yet Reed, who
perhaps did more than any other one
man to cause the defeat of the party,
is asking the Democrats of Missou'
to return him to the Senate, where.
he promises, he will pursue the same
course as in the past. If the Demo
cratic party is to come back it must
maintain the standards Of right that
it upheld, during those eventful
eight years, and battle for the estab-
lishment of those principles of in
ternational comfy and intercourse
which alone can bring peace and
happiness to us and the world
James A. Reed is unalterably op'
posed to all this. II have not
changed my mind" he says. He is
honest about it. But is he right OF
is he wrong? That is the test

BUSINESS rs REVIVING.

The country is slowly and natur-
ally recovering from it's Industrial
stagnation. The Republican Con
gress elected in the middle of Presi-
dent Wilson's term would render
him no aid in his efforts to get the
country back on sound basis; they
thought it good policy to follow Pen
roses suggestion to "let the people
sweat" They are still sweating.
There are many thousands who
should find no difficulty standing in
line waiting for a chance to vote
next November, after having stood
in line so often at soup kitchens in
the cities waiting their turn. Con-
ditions are improving, but 1t is diff
cult to discover just what thing this
Congress can point to as having aid
ed in the recovery. 1t has done
nothing, and done it very poorly
The country will recover-it has al
ways done so-even in spite of the
sort of craftsmanship at the helm in
Congress.

is REED RIGHT OR WRONG?

"The test is," said Senator Reed
in his speech at Springfield, mot
whether / agreed with the President
but whether l was right or wrong"
That, indeed, is the test. We have
never had any quarrel with Mr.,
Reeds independence of thought or
action. We are independent our.
selves, and take orders from no man
or no party. One who is elected to
an office calling for the exercise OF
craftsmanship should be judged pri-
marily by his judgment, as it is ex-
pressed in his acts. Was Mr.. Reed
right or wrong? If he was right the
Democratic party was wrong. There
is no escape from that conclusion,
Mr.. Reed is going about the State
telling the people that he opposed
tration for great standing army
and navy, for universal military SER
vice, after the world war, and for
the acceptance of mandate over
Armenia. And he asks his hearers
if they would have supported these
proposals. OF course, they answer
mo" and he interprets this as pub
lie approval.
AS a matter of fact these were not
party issues. The Secretary of War
presented recommendations proposed
by the general staff as to the estab-
lishment of the army on peace
footing. This was not an admins
tration demand nor did Wilson
give it active support. The Repub-
lican Congress reorganized the army
and navy according to its own ideas
of right, and it's work was approved
by Wilson. The President asked
Congress to accept mandate for
Armenia, but with no expectation
that it would be granted, and he did
not press the matter. These ques-
tions did not make a ripple in public
interest. There was never the
slightest chance of the adoption OF
the department army program or of
the Armenian mandate. The Demo-
cratic platform of 1920 did not have
a word to say about army or navy
organization and did not support an
Armenian mandate, contenting 1t
self with recommendation that
America should render any proper
aid to the Armenians consistent with
the constitution, to enable them to

Well, let Mr. Daugherty bring on
his war grafters. The country is

heard of possible war graft prosecu
tioss by the present administration
was when Representatives Johnson
of South Dakota and Woodruff of
Michigan, both Republicans and
both service men. took up the COM
plaint that war graft cases were be-
ing abandoned, and when prosecu-
tor of the department resigned,
charging that the Attorney-General
had pulled him off a scent.
If Mr.. Daugherty, who is shouting
that the recent attacks on him have
been inspired by war grafters who
hope to escape prosecution and by
partisans who wish TO block the ex-
posure of Wilson appointees, will
get after the war proiiteers, he can
do a great deal to obscure his du-

THE CRACKER-BAR

In the lamented good old days"
every corner grocery had it's group
of cracker barrel politicians who
devoted their time to discussing ma
tional and international politics.
Home concerns troubled them not
at all, but they were always mighty
sharp with the "gover'm'nt." AS a
rule their wives were overworkel,
their children shabby, Their houses
needed attention and their gardens
needed wedding. They were honest
in their way. though tey generally
owed the butcher, and the grocer
whose crackers they nibbled. They
were not without certain shrewd
wit in the big matters they ha-
rangued about, but they never gave
any constructive service to the
home town. Their opinions never
got them or the world any further
along.
This species is not altogether eX-
tinct in the down east country, but
the younger generations are break
ing away from the traditions of their
forefathers and the cracker-barrel
group at the corner grocery is not
as garrulous as it was before the
advent of the automobile. And the
Democrats and Republicans, in thei"
alternate terms of administration,
seem to be having about as much
luck with the government as ever.

Standard Oil of New Jersey Reaches New High Peak;

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-Stock prices moved to higher ground in today's brief half holiday, largely in response to short covering operations.
 Speculative interests who had sold for the decline, apparently were dis inclined to remain uncovered over the weekend in view of the more favor able situation in the Near East, cary developments in which were used as an excuse for bear attacks. Trading was more moderate.
 Gulf States Steel was the individual feature, being pushed up to net gain of more than points. Much of the recent buying has been attributed to a group of bankers and the bullish op- erations have been aided by the linn ited floating suply for trading puruo- ses.
