In ! simple ceremony that
contrasted strangely with the
significance and solemnity Of
the undertaking President
Hoover today proclaimed the
effectiveness of the World
Peace Pact, under which 46
of the most powerful nations
Of the earth have bound them
selves to renOunce war, and
never to seek settlement OF
their disputes by other than

President Hoover spoke the %
momentons words at the outset or
his brief address to the representa-
lives OF the. powers:
Article 1.-The high contracting
parties soIemnly declare in the
names Of their respective peoples
that they condemn recourse to war
for the solution OF international
controversies. and renounce 1t as an
instrument OF national policy In
their relations with one another.
Article 2-The high contracting
parties agree that the settlement
or solution Of all disputes or con.
fIicts of whatever nature or of
whatever origin they may be. which
may arise among them. shall never
be sought except by pacific means.

That's all there Is to the treaty.
Yet to accomplish it there were many
months Of endeayor, countless mil.
lions OF words exchanged between
governments, and much delicate ne
gotiation carried on.
Mr.. Hoover did not attempt to gid
the lily in the short and simple
speech which he delivered to his
brilliant audience. Apparently, with
war clouds lowering in the Far East
between China and Russia-hoth OF

he preferred to let the words of the
document speak for themselves.

that the soldiers and the police made a free election
impossible.
This has been the cry In Mexico for years and years.
Regardless OF all this Rubio had the unanimous back

Mexico follow the leaders.
Pres. Portes Gil. the successor Of Obregon, who
was the victim Of the bullet Of an assassin, has dem

the reins OF government, and the Mexico Of today Is
q Mexico where peace appears TO prevail and stability

Important committees. He was familiar with needs
OF the war department Is wei as the department Of
finance. ne was an authority on legislation He
was q champion Of the budget system. He knew
the art OF centralizing expenditures he was o leader
Of the republican party.
His first public office was city attorney OF fsdar
Rapids, where he was born tn 1856. He was the
author Of many important national laws. A repub-
lican. he backed Woodrow Wilson. the war president.
Just as Loyalty as any democrat who held @ seat In
congress.
He opposed the League Of Nations, but he favored
cancellation OF the 81. OOO.O0o.O 600 war debt believing
such action would serve to rehabilitate international
exchange and peace. He resigned his seat In congress
in 1921, declaring political activity had left him a
poor man With u large family. He located I'm the
city OF Chicago where he built up a lucrative law
practice.
he was the pre-convention manager or the Hoover
campaign in the Western states and he was the lead
er in the task OF winning the Middle Western farmers
to the republican standard.
Herbert Hoover was nominated. Good was the
Western manager Of the campaign that followed.
Hoover was elected. He called Good to his cabinet
as secretary Of war.
he was a practical politician rs well Is an able
lawyer and legislator. Now the farmers Of the Middle
West have deserted the Hoover program and are
followers OF the program OF Sen. w. A. Bcrah who
did more than any man in the West TO bring about
the election Of the republican standard bearer last
year.
This dead secretary OF war was a conservative. He
was a regular and a member Of the old guard. He
followed the flag Of the regulars. He was looked upon
by the business interests Of the East and the North
as safe and sane.
He was poor in pocket when he deserted congress
sional life. he had amassed q comfortable fortune
when the call came from Herbert Hoover that he
was ambitious to be president Of the United States
Success crowned the efforts OF the Hoover managers.
Good was given his reward. Now he is dead. An
other face has been blotted from the old guard pic
tr,re. which Is a reminder that the old guard repub-
licans and the old guard democratic eladers have had
their day.

And. wonder Of wonders, he said that he believed
the county commissioners courts OF Texas could build
