LAW ENFORCEMENT

I'VE must have respect for law. We
must have observance Of law. We
must have enforcement Of law. The
very existence Of the government de-
pends on this. The substitution Of pri-
vate will for public law is only another
name for oppression. disorder, anarchy
and the mob rule.
Every government depends on the
loyalty and respect Of it's citizens.
Violations Of the law weaken and
threaten government itself. No hon
est government can cOndone such ac-
tions on the part of its citizens. The
Republican party pledges the full
strength of the government for the
Of these principles by the
enforcement of the constitution and Of
all laws.

WORLD WAR VETERANS

1--WE reafirm the admiration and
gratitude we feel for soldiers and
sailors.
1.-THE Republican party pledges a
continual and increasing solicitude for
all those suffering any disability as a
result Of service to the United States
in time of war. No country and no
administration has ever shown a more
generous disposition in the care Of its
disabled, or more thoughtful considera-
ton in providing a sound administra-
tion for the solution of the many prob
lens involved in making intended bene-
fits fully, directly and promptly avail
able to the veterans
"The confusion, inefflciency and NAL
administration existing heretofore
since the establishment Of this govern
ment agency has been cured and plans
are being actively made looking to a
further improvement In the operation
Of the bureau by the passage of new
legislation. The basic statute has been
so nberalized as to bring within its
terms 100000 additional beneficiaries.
The privilege of disqualification in gov
ernment hospitals, as recommended by
President Coolidge, has been granted
to all veterans irrespective Of the
origin Of disability and over $50,OOO,-
600 has been appropriated for hospital
construction which will provide suffi-

Appropriations totalling over ST.

'The increasing stress Of Industrial
life, the constant and necessary ef-
forts, because of world competition, to
Increase production and decrease costs

those in authority to protect labor
from undue exactions.
1--WE commend congress for having
recognized this possibility in its prompt
adoption of the recommendation Of
President Coolidge for a constitution

legislate on the subject Of child labor

High Standards for Women.
I'VE favor high standards for wages,
working and living conditions among
the women employed in industry.
I'VE pledge a continuance Of tha
successful efforts Of the Republican
administration to eliminate the seven
day, twelve-hour work week, in In,

the elimination Of the tweive-hour day
In the steel industry and the agree

week Of alternate thirteen, and eleven

ciple Of the eight-hour day.
I'VE pledge a continuation Of the
work Of rehabiIitating workers in In

Milford chronicle., 1924-06-20
ORDERLY GOVERNMENT

1.-THE Republican party reafirms its
| devotion to orderly government under
the guarantees embodied in the Con-
stitutaOn of the United States. We
recognize the duty of constant vigil
ance to preserve at all times a clean
and honest government and to bring
to the bar of justice every dehler Of
the public service in or out Of Office.
Dishonesty and corruption are not
political attributes. The recent con-
gressional investigations have exposed
instances in both parties Of men in
public office who are willing to sell
official favor and men out of Office
who are willing to buy them in some
cases with money and In others with
influence.
"The sale of Influence resulting from
the holding Of public position, or from
association while in public office, or
the use Of such influence for private
gain or advantage, is a perversiOn of
public trust and prejudical to good
government. 1t should be condemned
by public opinion and forbidden by
law.
eve demand the speedy, fearless
and impartial prosecution of all wrong
doers, without regard for political af-
hliatiOn or position; but we declare
no greater wrong can be committed
against the people than the attempt
to destroy their trust in the great body
of their public servants. Admitting
the deep humiliation which all good
citizens share, that our public life
should have harbOred some dishonest |
men, we assert that these undesirables |
do not represent the standard Of our
national integrity.
"The government at Washington is
served today by thousands of earnest,
and faithful officials and
in every department. It is
a grave wrong against these patriotic
men and women to strive indiscrimi-
nately to besmirch the names Of the
and undermine the confidence
0f the people in their government. It
s even a graver wrong when this is
lone for partisan purposes or for self
sh exploitation.
''The Republican administration has
already taken charge Of the prosecu-
ion Of official dereliction, and it will
continue the work of discovering and
but it will not confuse the
innocent with the guilty, nor prostitute
or party advantage the enforcement
f the law.

vocate appropriations sufficient to
provide for the training Of all mem
bers of the National Guard, the citi

out and maintain the navy to the full
strength provided the United States
by the letter and spirit of the limita-
tion of armaments conference.
Anti-Lynching Law.
1--WE urge the congress to enact at
the earliest possible date a federal
anti-lynching law so that the full in
fuence of the federal government may
be welded to exterminate this hide
Gus crime. We believe that much of
the misunderstanding which now ex-
lists can be eliminated by humane and
sympathetic study of its causes. The

and scientific readjustment of railroad
rate schedules with a view to the en-
couragement of agriculture and basic
industries, without impairment of
railroad service.
'The present law regulating rail-
roads which were enacted to meet
postwar conditions should be modl-
fed from time to time as experience
shows the necessity therefor.
'The consolidation Of railroads into
fewer competitive systems, subject to
the approval Of the interstate com.
merce commission, should be provided
for.
Labor Board FlexIblIIty.
"The labor board provisions Of the
present law should be amended when
ever 1t appears from experience that
such action is necessary. Collective
bargaining, mediation and voluntary
arbitration are the most important
steps in maintaining peaceful labor re-
lations and should be encouraged.
We do not believe in compulsory ac-
tion at any time in the settlement of
labor disputes.
"Public opinion must be the final
arbiter in any crisis which so vitally
affeSts public welfare as the suspen-
sion Of transportation.
Therefore, the interests Of the
public require the maintenance of an
tribunal which can in an
make an investigation of
the facts and publish its conclusions.
This is essential as a basis for popu-
lar judgment.
I'VE favor a stable, consistent and
policy toward our rail-
roads.

ALL OUT OF SORTS?
So Was This Good Woman Who Tells
 Her Experience

All often women accept their pains and aches as natural to their sex. They fail to realize that weak kidneys are often to blame for that backache, those headaches, dizzy spells and that tired, depressed feeling. Thouffnds have found new health and strength by helping the weakened kidneys with Doan's Pills-a stimulant diuretic. This case is one of many in this To- cality.
 Mrs. H. Moynagh, 1201 John Ad ans St., Oregon City, Ore, says: T used Doan's pills when my kidneys were out of order and I had severe bachaches that made it hard for me to do my housework. My kidneys act ed irregularly, too. I read of Doan's Pills and used them. They soon rid me of the backache and put my kidneys in good working order."
 Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's Pills-the same that Mrs. Moy- nagh had. Foster Milburn Co.,, Mfrs. Buffalo, N. Y.
