lions that we should plunge into
maelstrom of wars and petty embroig-
out of war? Then why align your
selves with European nations that
nave just lately added the boodiest
volume of all to their vast library OF
chaos and strife and disillusioned hu-
manity.
Europe today is in as war-like a
frame of mind as they were ten years
ago. After they have recovered their
resources and start unravelling the Cor
dion-knot of selfish treaties that they
are tying for themselves now, they
will forget all about world courts or
arbitration as easily as they forgot
about the Hague in 1914.

why not continue our policy OF Impero
scorn the. pettiness of European dlpio-
macy, the selfish brass band patrlo-
tism of .jingoism. Why not secure
peace through disarmament rather
than by the more dubious method of
cooperative armament against each
other? Why not continue to observe
the golden-r rule in government? Have

or LaFollette believed he could be
elected. That the most that could pos
sibly be accomplished would be to
throw the election into Congress which
very likely would result in the eleVa-
ton Of Gov. Bryan of Nebraska, Dem
ocratic candidate for vice president as
would mean the joining of the League
of Nations. He called attention to the
fact that Magnus has gone on record
to the eject that if the election is
for Bryan for president. If he does
this he will not represent the major

If Magnus would be truly representing
his state he would either cast his vote
for Charles G. Dawes or Senator
Mr.. Schall stated that no man ever
came to the presidency less hampered
than did President Coolidge: His nom
ination at Cleveland was the spontan-
eous demand of his party in the Ma
ton. He praised Mr.. Coolidge's cour-
age and honesty. He said that he had
not at all times been in accord with
President Coolidge since his elevation
to the Presidency but that he never
for on minute questioned his sincere
desire to serve the citizens of the
United States according to the best
