ON SCHOOL PLANK
BREWSTER'S VIEWS
PLATFORM COMMENT

Auburn, Apr. 11.-Speaking at the
Free Will Baptist church here, this,
evening Senator Ralph o. Brewster
said of the Republican platform:
THE Republican platform has
been criticized as lacking definite
ness. Such criticism 1 do not be-
lieve is warranted. The platform
will bear very careful study and its
fundamental soundness will be rec
ognized with increasing clearness as
the discussion of it proceeds.
ION the public school question it
declares unequivocally against the
appropriation of public funds to Sec
tartan or parochial schools. but
recognizes the propriety of continu-
ing grants to private, non-sectarian
schools. so long as they are wholly
under the supervision of the COM
missioner of education. We should
be grateful for the clear line which
it has drawn between sectarian and
non-sectarian academies which is
the line of distinction which l have
advocated throughout the State. The
platform left to the Legislature the
determination of the method most
wisely adapted for making this pol
icy permanently effective.
"On the water power question it
re-affirms unequivocally the policy
of keeping our hydro-electric pow
err within our State and declares for
development of our water resources
by private capital under adequate
State control, and for protection of
such interests as the State may have
in locations susceptible of develop
ment. This seems a program on
which all points of view may well
unite.
"On. these two issues believe the
Republican party may confidently
rely for q substantial volume of sup
port as a result of its platform
declarations.
1.-THE platform omitted any refer
ence to the modification of the di-
rect primary law. In my judgment
necessary changes in this law do not
warrant a place of that Importance,
and. this should settle for the pres
emf the agitation in favor of a re-
turn to a modified convention syS-
TEN.
IT regret thatthe platform of the
Republican party in the State of
Maine in this testing-time of nation
al prohibition did not declare itself
unequivocally not only for the en-
forcement of the prohibitory law,
but also for the existing statutory
provisions. Maine may proudly and
properly point to its leadership of
the nation upon this issue under the
inspiration of it's great pioneer, Neal
Dow. I believe Republicans may
confidently. and should courageous
ly. defend not merely the enforce
ment of the law. but the law itself,
especially when a Democratic can
didate for Congress is proposing TO
run in the First district upon a mod
ification issue.
"The outcome of the battle for the
G S b | S h m n of prohibition
throughout our country is notdoubt-
full but this is no time for the lead
ers in the fight to falter."

Am. Wooden Mills Running
Nearly To Full Capacity

The American Wooden Mills in
this town are now working to near
ly fun capacity with plenty of or
ders ahead for some time. At the
Browns mills the 20 new looms that
were installed last fall are nearly
all going and the rest Of them will
be started as soon as they can be
wired. These looms are the latest in
that line and each machine is OPP
Grated with an individual motor. The
added looms will make it necessary
to run the spinning department night
and day during the busy season, and
the mill employees in this town are
looking ahead to one of the best
years in the history of the industry.
It is understood that extensive re-
pairs and alterations are to take
place in the Mayo's mill during this
summer, and that machine shop
will be installed in one of the build
ings on Main street. ss
