that there was sufficient community
of general aim and purpose to war;
rant the sinking of minor and in
dividual differences, in order to dis
charge the great, broad, general re-
sponsibility that is imposed upon a
party when it comes into authority.
Republicans have always had more
of this capacity to submerge the
minor differences for the sake of ma
jor and national accomplishments.
Our traditions have been OF
achievement. of efficiency. of getting
results, of doing the job. For two
generations the nation has never
failed to turn to our party in any
crisis in which there was compelI-
ing demand for these qualities. A lit
tie over a year ago, after some eX-
perience with another leadership, the
country turned over to us it's full
mandate-about the biggest task in
national rehabilitation that has ever
been turned over to any party.
We can take just satisfaction in
the ten months of Republican admin
istration. Our Congress has made a
record in constructive, progressive
legislation that has hardly been
eQualled by any previous Congress.
We have restored peace to our coun-
try and have led the world farther
on the highway of disarmament than
it has ever before travelled in all its
history.
Before us there is opportunity and
urgent necessity for further achieve
ment. In order to get results there
is need for mutual trust and conf
dence: for a broadness of vision that
shall be able to overlook minor in
terests for the sake of great essen
tails.
We ask nobody to surrender any of
his right of individual opinion. We
recognize that Wyoming is a part of
the United States the same as Rhode
Island. and that Oregon has the same
interest and must have the same
voice on questions affecting the ma
tional welfare as Massachusetts. We
want our historic party to be a clear
ing mouse of absolutely free, unfet-
tered and Embossed individual
Judgments. We ask only that meas.
ure OF generosity and tolerance that
VIII make possible the compromises
the agreements, the adjustments. ON
winch at last all legislative accom-
pilshments must be based.
Precisely because Republicans have
always been capable of making those
concessions of common sense to the
common good, we have earned the
confidence of the nation. Just in the
measure that We shall continue cana
Die or such mutual concessions. such
practical compromises, we shall de-
serve continued tenure OF that con-
fidence
knowing as web as we do the nor
sons at Washington and througbou,
the country. in whom is centered the
responsibility for our performance
we feel able to give you assuran nee
mat our party is going to continue its
successes, to lead the nation out into
a better time. and to deserve Of our
people and the world the good will
mat must accrue to sound leadership
high purposes and broad, construc-
tive achievement.

Combined efforts got father into q
pair. Father took down hat box on
top shelf. Flat box was empty.
Father found another h. b.. all done
up. He undid much done up box
and found therein, old, old silk hat,
which sat on his bumps like last
years bird nest. Mad, them some.
Wouldn't wear a silk hat, anyway.
Son, where is my hat. b Son didn't
know. Son hadn't been wearing it.
Well. son, you have been. Son look /
ed. Son couldn't find s. h. Son says.
I must go along, will be late for the
wedding. you come along with Ella
when you get ready. Father rushed
down stairs. In closet beneath stair

med full of sons coats, caps. scarfs.
other outdoor apparel. Father look
ed like hound dog hunting for
buried bone. We say hound dog, be-
cause they seem to be able to paw out
the most dirt. Hats. coats, every
thing, went helter-skelter. Then
at bottom father found derby. Cram
med same on head. Daughter Ella
was waiting in taxi, outside door.
Father started. Many taxis were
ahead in the line. They arrived at
church. Wedding was in progress
as bride and groom were at altar.
Father said, we can't go in there now.
right in the middle of the wedding.
Let's go to the club. The reception
was at the club. Daughter says, no,
we can't go to the club before the
wedding party arrives. That would
MT be right. They decide to go back
home and wait half hour or so and
then go to club. They go out. Father
halls their taxi. Drive me right back
home. Where is your home, the taxi
driver says. Why. don't you know,
you just brought us from there, said
father with more rising anger. Yes,
gentle reader, anger has been rising
all this time in fathers horizon and
fathers goat was blaating in good
style. 1 never saw you before, says
taxi man. Then father says, drive
us to 1918 Main street. Father and
daughter Ella reach home. Daughter
E. rings door bell. No answer. Maids
are out. Thought nobody was to be
at home. Father reaches for key.
Blaa, blaa, says fathers goat. Faith
er had forgotten the key. Yell, says
father. to taxi man. Taxi man, just
starting off, was called back. Drive
US to the Country club, says father.
They reach the c. G. just as bridal
party goes in front door. We will
go in side door, says father. Father
is officer of club and knows ways and
means. They go to side door. Father
pulls on side door. Door knob gives
way. Father sets down in snow
bank. Father is so mad he swears he
will sit right there. Goes in. Says
he won't go near bride. won't go near
groom. Will sit in smoking room and
just smoke. Wheee, says fathers
goat, frisking away over the hori-
zon, over the hills and far away
Son couldn't let the matter rest.
Guests at wedding come into smok-
ing room. Understand you have a
new way of getting into your dress
suit, now. Understand you don't be-
lieve in wearing silk hats. Round and
round went the cigar in fathers
mouth. But son didn't know it all.
Daughter Ella did. But she's more
like her mother. She wouldn't
plague father.

G. 0. P. National
Chairman Talks
to Party Women

New York, Jan. IA luncheon was
given at Hotel Biltmore by the Wo-
mems National Republican Club
today. The following address was
given by John T. Adams, chairman of
the National Republican Committee:
The Womens National Republican
Club sounds good to Republican
who believes in our system of gov
ornment. Those who have been par
ty men all their lives are naturally
in favor of women being party wo-
men. In our bi-party country, per-
haps the best thing for woman is
to be a Republican partisan; the sec
ond best thing, Democratic PARTISAN:
and about the poorest thing she can
90, politically, is to be a partisan
or a woman partisan. There is about
as much logic in the women forming
a political party of their own as in
having the eyed, or the rcd
haired, or the bald-headed people set
themselves up as a political party.
Every time we learn of the organiZa-
ton of woman's Republican club,
or woman's Democratic club, either
one, we think the women are going to
justify our confidence, that when
they got their political rights" they
would recognize their political re-
sponsibilities. Good Republicans are
better Americans, and they would
much rather have the women become
Democrats than have them organize
under the pale banner of non-parti-
sanship or the fractional standard of
a woman's party.
There never was time when
greater problems confronted our
country than now. nor when respon-
sible leaders faced greater difficulties
in the solution of those problems. 1t
was never more important than now
that Americans, when considering
public questions, should be guided
by their views on fundamental prin-
ciples of government, rather than by
individual or factional interests. Few
greater misfOrtunes could befall our
country in these trying times than
to have our civic energies frittered
away in contests among groups. fac
tions, occupational interests, or So
cial divisions.
Just as we. feel responsibility to
the nation, which we believe must
lead us into one or the other of the
great political parties. so we should
have sense of responsibility for the
party that will favor a proper meas
ure of solidarity. of uniflcation. Your
political party will not hold your re-
spect if it fails to keep its promises.
We don't believe that the millions
who voted the Republican ticket a
year ago were united as to all details
of party policy. But we do believe

The war" of getting a livelihood,
for such it may be termed. is like
wise experiencing the limitations of

men who do the work in them are
telling us they cannot get along
without charging us more than we
can afford TO pay for the heat that
keeps the life in us science is show
ing how the coal for power may be
replaced by the water power deliv-
cred by wire and is discovering other
commodities for heating our homes.
About one third of the country's
coal resources are in the form of
ignite of which comparatively little
use has been made. A director of
the L. :. Bureau of Mines is demon
strating that 1t can ne made to take
the place OF anthracite if necessary,
although this process so far has not
succeeded in producing it for less than
the price OF the best grade of soft

This Ignite is converted into a
high grade fuel by carbonization.
During the past summer a thousand
tons have been treated at a plant in
North Dakota and more than four
hundred tons Of Ignite char
briquettes have been produced.
These briauettes are pillow shaped
and weigh two and a half ounces

capable OF being handled without
