policy should be decided at the polls

Senator Johnson, who returned
Monday from Europe where he talked
with leading statesmen of many coun

given In his honor by a committee
composed largely of men who sup
ported the late Theodore Roosevelt In
his third party campaign for the pres

The chairman of the committee
giving the dinner was Col. Rhine.

Payne, active in state republican poll
tics and a campaign manager for
Roosevelt, was vice chairman. Mayor

guests.
