 Republicans

Lafayette, Ala, Aug. 2S R-Sena- tor J. Thomas Heliin. at home today Tor a brief rest, attacked John j. Raskob. chairman of the democratic national committee, for telling re- publicans that they can step over and vote for smith for presiden, without changing their politics or losing their identity as republicans. "
 John J. Raskob, New York, re- publican and present chairman of the democratic national committee, is telling republicans they can step over and vote for smith for presi- dent without changing their politics or losing their identity with the re- publican party" Henin said. Last week he appealed to republicans at Philadelphia to do that. He organ ized a Smith for president citizens committee and in addressing the re- publcans present he said:
 "I think there are d great many republicans who are willing to give up their party affiliations. This is the class of citizens among whom the new committee here will work "
 Hcf1in continued that Raskob "has completely committed himself to the position that it is right and proper for the voter of one party to cast his or her vote for the head of the ticket Of another party without giv- ing up party principles or party af- tiliations"

 La Prensa commended:
 To-day may be memorabl in his tory. The Kellogg pact. which was received doubtfully by many, never theless reveals an effort to lessen the danger of repetition of the World war. We maintain previous observa- tions but nevertheless hope that the factors comprising its efficacy will disappear
 The conservative Daily Telegraph here said:
 Perhaps the chief benefaction from the pact is that the United States has come back to> Europe, making her d member Of the stand ing committee for the preservation Of European peace"
 The independent London Daily Express said:
 The pact may be no more than a gesture but it is one of gracefulness and good will and cannot be wholly futile"
 The Liberal Daily News:
 "Ihe greatest significance of the pact is that the United States now has ranged herself definitely with the other world powers. In the future the world must focus here imag gina ton and creation towards a pacific means Of settling the disputes which are bound to arise"
 Conservative papers in Berlin be- Titled the treaty. The Nacht-A Aus gade headlined the story. "Diplo- mats outlaw war for half hour The nationalist Deutsche -Zeitunc said the ceremony almost resem- bled Hollywood" a dig at the many cameras that recorded the cere- mony, The socialist paper Nor. waerts said the treaty was only one step towards world peace and must be followed by others.
 Paris newspapers regarded the treaty more as d step in the rieh; direction than as an accomplish. ment of peace. LIntransigeant said the treaty "can only give the world more security and tranquility if men want 1t and if statesmen continue the work begun Le Temps said, Both in America and Europe, the highest authorities have made it clear that the new pact cannot have direct repercussions affecting the measures which the peoples of the slsnatory nations judge necessary 10 take for their own security"

 Kellogg Retires Early
 Frank B. Kellogg, American sec retary of state. retired early last night to get good nights rest pre- paratory to attending luncheon of. tered by President Doumergue to- day, and a reception at the Paris city hall. He plans to leave Havre tomorrow aboard the cruiser Detroit for Ireland.
 In a speech at the treaty cere- mony. Astride Briand, French for "ign minister. gave Mir. Kellogg "preponderant" credit for consum- nation of the treaty. War hence forth, branded with illegality, is by mutual accord truly and regularly outla wed, so that culprit would in- cur the unconditional condemnation and probably the enmity of all of it's co-signatories,' the French foreign minister said referring to the pact. Tt is direct blow to the institution of war, even to its very vitals."
 Briand was host to about 100 guests. including the treaty slgncrs, at dinner served in the immense foreign office dining room last night The dinner was followed by recep- tion for which 2,0o0 invitations had been issued.
 Warns Of L. S. Attitude
 Commenting on the treaty, Lord Cushendun, who signed for Great Britain and northern Island, and, separately in the name of King George Y, as emperor of India, cau- tioned against the inference that kellogg's activities in elaborating the pact meant that the United States would depart from its policy of aloofness toward European com. plications.
 He emphasized the moral value of the treaty. Just as Napoleon once said that the great factor in war is .'de moral factor. so it is in peace, he said.
 No one imagines that signature of this treaty will immediately and finally banish war from the face of the earth" Lord Cushendun added. That would be d mistake. It is pos sible that there still will be small wars somewhere on earth, but the moral value Of the pact remains and that is the real value of this treaty"
