would prove and discussing the
point that the league would prevent
war. Mr.. Hutchins declared that the
League OF Nations was the only body
in eXlStance that stood for peace and
was absolutely against war of any
kind. He brought out in his discus
sion, some OF the achievements of the
league and said that the whole body
had for one OF its aims, the promo
ton OF friendship and cooperation.
Miss Dorothy Nye of Skowhegan
opened the debate for the negative and
presented several points which her
team would prove. She declared that
the League was not the kind of an
organization that the United States
wanted to join: That it had failed
miSerably III what it had set out to
accomplish, because it could not con-
troll the powerful nations and that the
League of Nations had received credit
for achievements which riShtfully be-
longed to this country.
The United States mas been sue
cessful in the past because it has not
entered any alliances or pledged it
self to any other nation in case of
war" declared Miss Nye. She then
referred to several articles in the Lea

proved that the members of the or
GaniZation lacked backbone and then
went on to prove that if this coun-
try should enter the League it would
mean economic boycottS in case of any
trouble arising between large ma ons.
a very strong argument that Miss
Nye presented was the fact that since
the League has been formed, II ma
lions of Europe have been in trouble
and have had fighting. eight of whom
are members of the League. She de-
clared that this showed failure to
accomplish the main object.
Edmund Sweeney the second
speaker for the affirmative declared
that the League has not failed to
bring some good to the world and sta
ted that if perfection would be
wrought when the United States en-
tered. He said that the past success
of this nation was due to the fact that
IL had always taken strong stand
for the right. He declared that the
biggest reason why this country
should join was because the founder
of the League was President Wilson
who gave his services and his life for
his country.
The power of the United States Is
necessary to the League to stop the
opium drug traffic" stated Mr. Swee-
ney. He went on to explain that Jap
an is urging the United States to keep
out of the League for the simple rea-
son of preventing one of the chief OBJ
jects of the organization. the killing
of the drug traffic.
Waiter Wilson of Skowhegan, the
second speaker on the negative. de-
Clared that the advice of the United
States Government would weight as
much with European nations in small
conferences as it would, given by n
member of the League. He declared
that the League was a vehicle of pol
itics which were corrupt and con-
trary to the ideals of this nation.
In the rebuttle Miss Nye of the
negative refuted statement made by
enc of the afirma tive debaters that
the League would stop wars, by
asking the question as to WHY it had
not stopped the inferior wars and
trouble since the war. Mr., Sweeney
hrou@ht out several valuable points
for his team.

!. TALIFORNIA Republicans in their
~ primary election deserted Hiram
Johnson and gave their preference to
Coolidge by a majority of something
like $4,000. Johnson bore up under the
blow bravely, declaring the result was
not a tragedy. In the Democratic
primaries McAdoo ran against an I'M
instructed slate and won an impressive
victory.
Indiana Republicans also decided
for Coolidge as against johnson by a
huge majority. The chief interest
there was in the race of Ed Jackson
for the gubernatorial nomination. He
was backed by the Ku Kiux Khan and
obtained a clear majority over all his
five opponents combined. The Demo-
Gratis were solid for Ralston, and DR..
Carleton McCulloch was in the lead
for the gubernatorial nomination.
Mr.. Coolidge has now defeated Sen
ator johnson in all the direct primary
states except South Dakota, and vet
eran politicians believe the Californian
is eliminated for all time as a Presi-
Dental possibility. The President and
his close advisers are now formulating
a platform for presentation to the
Cleveland convention, devoting them
selves at present especially to planks
dealing with international matters. Ac
cording to one veracious correspondent
the tentative program embodies these
features:
1. The United States shall join the
World court if it is divorced from the
League Of Nations.
2. The court shall be maintained in
connection with The Hague tribunal,
as originally advocated by the United
States.
8. An international conference on
land and further naval armament limi-
tation shall be called by President
Coolidge, contingent upon the accept
