High Light Achievements
of the Republican
Administration
Debt and Expenses Slashed. Liberty
Bonds at Par. Unemployed at Work.
Peace Promoted. Budget Estab-
lished. Prosperity Revived.
JOHN T. ADAMS. CHAIRMAN REPUBLICAN
NATIONAL COMMITTEE

sixteen months ago the Republican
Party took over the management OF
the largest business concern in the
world. II found the organization OF
this concern utterly demoralized as
result of eight years of riotous waste.
gross mismanagement and class leg
islation. There was bonded indebt-
edness of S23 ,997 100000 Government
bonds were selling at So cents on the
dollar. There we're outstanding loans
TO foreign countries of $1,000, 600, 900.
Tor which there was no written evil
dence of indebtedness, much less any
business or legal agreement as to how
and whom the loans and interest were
to be paid. The discount rate at Fed
eral Reserve Banks was rs per cent
for gilt edge leans. Five million wage
earners were In idleness. Farmers
faced bankruptcy. Hard times pre-
vailed. Business lived from hand to
mouth. Everything needed readjust-
ment and reconstruction. Such, in a
broad way. were the conditions pre-
yailing When this administration took
control of the country and the present
Republican Congress was called into
special session.
Today we have President whose
wise. businesslike, constructive poll
cies have won the confidence and af-
lection Of the American people. lie

welfare. AS soon as the administra-
tion assumed control II called into
special session the Republican Con
gress to assist II I'm STRENGTHENING out
the situation. Since then the exeeu.

the government. both under Repub.
lican control. have worked together
AS result OF their joint effort there
has been within the last 1G months a

has been reduced until it is now 45
per cent.
The last year Of Wilson's admin
istration the actual cost of running
I the government was S5.53S, 000. 900. The
actual cost of running the government
for the fiscal year just ended JUNE
80 was 1875. 100000. This is an al
nual saving of SIZE. 900, 600 which the
Republican administration has made
in the routine expenditures of the gov
eminent. This was possible because
/ the Republican Congress early in its
special session re-eaacted budget law
which the previous Republican Con
gress had passed ol.y to have Dem
ocratic President veto it. 1t was east
~ the most important piece Of bust
ness legislation which has been en-
acted within this generation. After
its enactment it vas sensibly applied
by he executive officers of the Re
publican adTGini5tfat ton.
TIE work OF Congress, the wise ad
ministrative policies and the introduc'
ton of business methods by the de-
partmerts in the conduct of public
affairs have all combined TO revive in
dividual and corporate enterprise, so
that today, in contrast TO a year ago,
unemployment has ceased to be
factor outside of those industries In
which there are strikes. Agriculture
is on its feet Business is improving
each day. Industrial output is increas-
ing Capital Is going back to work in
the channels Of private and profitable
enterprise. II really makes some diff
ference at the end of year whether
the government has been controlled by
an administration and Congress that
are generally right In contrast to an
administration and Congress that were
generally wrong.
The Republican party will go before
the country this fall without any apol-
ogy for THE record. II is a record
which moods no defense The people
are not eolne to stop the magnificent
work so we'll begun They are not
going 10 retreat TO the conditions
which prevailed prior to March, 1924
They are no, going 20 return the Dem
ocratic party to power and thereby re
store the evil conditions which have
been so largely corrected In the past
16 months of Republican control OF
the executive and legislative branches
OF the government.

Attack a Cold Immediately

When you feel a cold coming on. go right
home. Take a laxative. Make some hot lem
onade. then take a hot bath-as hot as you can
stand. Stay in the tub 80 minutes, slipping
slowly several glasses of the lemonade. Get.lnto
bed. with a hot water bottle at your feet, and pile
on blankets. After an hours sweat, dry thor
oughly with a rough towel, apply Vicks over
throat and chest. rub in well until the skin is
red. and then spread or thickly and cover with
one or two thicknesses of hot flannel cloth. Get
into bed again between dry sheets. Leave the
bedclothing loose about the neck. like a funnel,
so that the rising vapors may be freely inhaled.
It is an obstinate cold, indeed. that will resist
such treatment. If it does. call a physician.
