REDS REAL FOE,
SAYS C. C. DAWES
Declares LaFollette and
Radical Backers Present
the Real Issue.

Evanston, Ill-Charles G. Dawes
told the American people that the
predominant issue" of this cam
paign is the issue Of what he termed
the progressive conservatism" Of the
Republican party versus the radicalism
of the LaFollette movement, domi-
mated by the Socialist party, which is
marching behind LaFollette with the
red flag flying.
He declared that the LaFollette
movement was the real opponent of
the Republican party, although the
result of the effort may be to dead
lock the contest for The Presidency
and make Organism succeed the Cool
idge policy.
He asserted the Democratic ticket
was composed Of one conservative and
one radical, 'hoping TO get votes by
avoiding the ISSUE" and he told his
hearers thai John w. Davis and Gov
ernor Bryan will suffer only the fate
which befalls those who try to straddle
in real fight
These things he told to the nation
in a speech which marks the course
which the Republican national cam
paign will take. The enemy is LaFol-
lette. A vote for Davis is a vote for
Bryan. Such will be the slogans Of
the Republican party. And the first
official intimation Of these slogans was
made by General Dawes in his speech
accepting the Republican nomination
for vice president speech which in
reality, through radio and the press,
was addressed to the entire nation,
although nominally it was addressed
TO the immense crowd which packed
General Dawes ''back yard" in Eyr
anston.
On the spacious lawn, sloping down
to Sheridan road, stood throDg.
which was estimated to number $4,000
persons. Adjacent to the Dawes home
there had been erected a platform for
the use of the speakers andaseveral
guests.

Premier Herriot Is
Upheld BY Chamber

Paris.-After a lengthy declaration
before both houses of parliament ex.
planning his policies at the London
conference, Premier Herriot obtained
a 800 to 200 vote in the chamber on
the technical point of continuation
of debate on the protocol. This is be-
lieyed to assure favorable majority
for the agreement in that body, and
the senate is also expected to uphold
the premier.
The minister's victory was won
when a motion to refer the London
accord to a commission with the pro-
vision that it should be signed first
and debated later, was defeated.
Premier Herriot admitted what had
been reported during the London con-
ference, but denied that Belgium was
ready to quit France, withdraw its
troops from the Ruhr, and leave
France entirely isolated.
