These, it Is believed, would be effec-

But the question arises as to whether
Japan will be sufficiently docile to wait
for the special session Of the League

or will Japan sense the danger and
withdraw from the League soon after

Mrs. Jesse w Nicholson, president OF

Mrs. Nicholson wrote DR.. Polling as
follows:
your letter asking me, constitu-
tional Democrat, to assist the Allied
Forces, of which you are chairman. in
making a contribution in the campaign
for the reelection Of President Hoover
and dry Congress when the President
Is running on a dripping wet platform
seems to me an insult to my inte4li-
gence, when you know better than any
one else the decided stand I took in
1928 against my own party for the very
self-same program now proposed by the
Republican candidate.
"It is with regret that you, of all
people, should throw your support to a
wet Republican candidate now when you
fought so persistently in 1928 against
Democratic candidate whose position
was identical with that of the candi-
date you are now supporting"
