:. Washington, June 24.-The nomi-
nation of Charles G. Dawes as vice
presidential running mate with Pres
ldent Coolidge will present definite
point of attack for the La Toilette
fCrces in the coming campaign.
Dawes labor record, his active
espousal of the open shop fight and
his interest as a capitalist and head
OF great Chicago bank provide
just the sort of targets at which the
La Folletee cohorts prefer to shoot,
whereas Coolidge presented a rather
Indefinite, indistinct mark for their
bullets. Except for his action in the
|. Boston police strike, which brought
him to national notice, the presi-
dents labor record and views have
not been distinctive. And while he
won criticism of labor leaders by
his stand at that time The situation
was not one by which a general
measurement Of his labor views
could be made. Dawes, however,
they figure, presents real point
of attack.
The main issues which will b..
presented to the Cleveland "con-
ference" or convention, of July a,
at which the La Toilette candidacy
will be launched already have been
determined. The half-dozen princi-

bird, and his heart was kinder than
his tongue. -
Were coming, Tommy!" said
Nick.
Here are the tickets said the
tiny Turk. r t.s"
So after Tommy Titmouse had
punched them with his little sharp
bill, the Twins and Johnny Jump Up
got on his back and away he flew.
"Why, it's different from any
country We have ever seen,"' said
Nancy when they got to Turkey.
"What queer. shapes, the houses
are!"
"They look like turnips upside
down." said Nick.
"This is the city that's so hard to
SPELL" said Johnny Jump Up. f.All
the boys and girls in school miss it
in spelling. It is called Con stan-tix
no7ple. It is d beautiful city, though,
but very very DID," !,
The Twins could see down into the
gardens from where they sat. Many
of them had high walls around them
shut off from the street, and they
were full of flowers. The air was
sweet with lilacs just as the tihx
Turk had said. s. ~ "a n
| Next the, titmouse took them out
to the country where things were
growing, fields of tobacco, and corn
and orchards of mulberry trees
where silk worms were feeding.
THAT'S ALL" SAID the little bird.
Let's go home!" ~
So back they went to the moonlit
garden. The Twins thanked Johnny
Jump Up, the tiny Turk and the tit
mouse and climbing the rose vine
took off their magic shoes and
tumbled into bed.

Dawes Presents Target For LaFOllette Forces

pal planks for the platform may be
set down as follows:
Repeal of the Esch- Cummins
railroad law and immediate steps to-
ward public ownership of railroads
2-Limitation on the power OF
courts to nullify acts of Congress
and Of state legislatures.
S-Abolition of the injunction in
labor disputes and guarantee OF
jury trial in cases of4alleged con-
tempt of court. ! .gffff
establishment Of a govern.
ment marketing corporation, provid-
ing direct route between farm
producer and city consumer, insur-
ing fair prices to the farmer and
pl otecting city buyers against prof..
teering.
5-Public ownership and develop.
ment of the nations water power
| and creation of public superpowel
system.
6-Reorganization Of the Federal
Reserve Bank system to provide for
direct public control of the nations
money and credit, supported by
legislation to permit and promote
cooperative banking.
In addition to these six major do.
nestle issues, the convention will
be asked to go on record as to a
definite international policy which
proposes the outlawry of war by all
civilized nations. This would be
supported by the entire abolition OF
profits in the production of war ma
terials in this country.
While La Toilette will be the CEN
trail figure on whose prestige and
power the weight of the independent
campaign will rest, the real, fight OF
his followers will be concentrated
in the. senatorial and congressional
elections rather than in winning
votes for the top of the ticket itself
For it is admitted that upon the
election of substantial congress
sional bloc, insuring the Wisconsin
leader a continuing balance OF
power in Congress, the real success
of the campaign depends.
OF course the claims is made that
the fight TO-, put. La Toilette in
the White House is a sincere and
honest one. That may be con.
coded without effecting the further
fact that the real hope and expecta-
ton Of the La Toilette followers is
the perpetuation of a La Follette-led
balance of power in the legislative
branch.
Of course, should the situation de-
velop an avalanche to sweep the in
dependent candidate acros the line
as a winner, or even block a ma
jority in the electoral college
throwing the election into Congress
either such result would be so much
clear gain for the independent
cause.
