PARTY KEEPS FAITH
WITH THE COUNTRY
The Republican Senators Have Car
ried Out the Pledges Made in
the Cleveland Platform

The leadership of Pennsylvania is
once more manifesting itself in the
United States Senate. David A. Reed,
who has been a member of that body
only since March 4, 1928, had the
courage and the initiative to offer
in the conference of Republican
Senators yesterday a resolution pro-
viding that "it be the sense of this
conference that Senators La Fol-
lette, Ladd, Brookhart and Frazier
be not invited to future conferences
and be not named to fill any Repub-
lican vacancies on Senate commit
tees"
He so well interpreted the feel
ing of the country, a feeling of
which his colleagues are thoroughly
aware, that although suggestions
were made to modify the resolution
it was passed with only two or three
votes. No one rose in his
place to make any objections to its
adoption.
Senator Reed is not a slave to old
Senate traditions, as men who have
served longer in Washington unfor-
tunately become. And he is evidently
a believer in party discipline and in
keeping party pledges. His resolu-

club house. The general admission
will be twenty-five cents. Arrange

tickets on advance sale at the drug

have the tickets for sale.
After paying several bills the
meeting was turned over to the
chairmen of the afternoon, Mrs. R.
K. Jones, and Mrs. Fred Powell, on

gram was rendered:

they falsely profess their devotion.
Theodore Roosevelt spoke, and
spoke we'll, of the malefactor of
great wealth. It is time we began to
speak of the criminal of high re-
spectability, and to let him know
that the sound moral sense of Am
erica holds him to be a criminal;
that neither his wealth nor his re-
spectability, nor his high Office, nor
his business connections will stand
between him and the scorn of every
American who is loyal to his coun-
try. These men in truth are trait
ors for the sake of appetite, and I
for one welcome the opportunity to
treat them as such. They are doing
more in a single year to bring an
archy into American than all the
Reds of all the world could do in
fifty"

independents or what not or wheth-
er they will ask to be counted as
Republicans. They have been read
out Of the Republican organization
of the Senate as they read them
selves out of the Republican Party
during the presidential campaign.
They have forfeited whatever ad-
vantages of position on committees
they may have gained as Republi-
cans and must start at the bottom
again as members of the opposition.
No one disputes their rights to Op-
pose and their right to bolt is still
inalienable. But they have lost their
standing as members of the Repub-
lican organization and must take
the consequences.
They are talking of fighting, but
they can do no worse in the future
than they have done in the past,
when they combined with the DEM
ocrats to block not only the Organi-
zation of the Senate committees, but
to block he party program. All that
the Senate conference has done to
them is to withdraw recognition
from them as Republicans. But this
is enough.
The party housecleaning, which
has been due for long time, has at
last begun. That it will be continued
under the leadership Of the Presi-
dent with the able cooperation Of
Senator Reed and the other realists
in the Senate, is the confident hope
of all who believe in party discipline
and party responsibility as the alter
native to chaos.-Public Ledger.

The election Of President Coolidge
on this platform by an enormous
majority over the combined opposi-
tion leaves no doubt of the nation
al sentiment But the old-time Sena-
tors had to stand aside to let one of
the newest of the lot take the lead
inproposing that this sentiment be
respected. But they went further
than this, for they appointed Sena-
tor Reed to the Committee on Rules,
which controls the legislative pro-
cesses, in order that he might be in
a position to apply still further his
sound theory that the party in pow
er should assume responsibility for
legislation and should run the Sen
ate in such a way as to make it
possible to carry out the party pol
icy.

way for the reorganization of the

adopted in the platform of the Cleve-

when the President is supported by
a. majority in Congress of the same
political faith united by party prin-
ciples and able by concerted action
to carry out in an orderly way a

urged to elect to Congress "men and

gram which the Republican Party
