Future OF COP May
Be Determined When
September Meet Held
BY JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-It could
well be that the future of the Re-
publican Party, so far as 1914 is
concerned, will be determined at
Mackinac Island in the first week
in September
There on September 6 and 7, the
Republican Postwar Advisory Coun-
Gil of 40 will meet to lay down the
G.. o. P. principles for postwar for
eign policy and all matters which
will effect the home front, come
peace.
On that nub of vacation land
which iuts out between Lakes Huron
and Michigan, % Republican Gov
ernors, five Senators, 10 Congress-
men and handful of party leaders
probably will write the Republican
platform for 1914. The meeting is
sponsored by the Republican Ma
tional Committee and will be at
tended by virtually all potential
G.. O. p. candidates.
The Mackinac Island delegates al
ready are roaring mad. President
Roosevelt stole their thunder in his
recent fireside chat when he laid
down blueprint for rehabilitation
benefits to men in the armed serv-
ices.
That put them on the spot twice
over. In the first place, they have
had in mind foreign postwar policy
that would come pretty close to
coinciding with what the President
already has suggested. They hoped,
at Mackinac, to bury forever the
idea that the Republicans have any
truck with isolationism.
In addition, they wanted to be
first in the political arena with a
rehabilitation plan that would as
sure Jobs for all men in the service,
and give them interim pay to carry
over until such jobs could be found.
both parties seem determined to
avoid the bonus plan that caused so
much controversy after World War
n.
partisan observers here see
great deal of significance in the
resolution introduced in the Senate
just before recess by no less than
Senators Arthur II. Vandenberg
(Michigan) and w. II. White. Jr.

Mr. Shattuck contended that al
though many desirable things

hood, the additional financial bur-
dens involved would not make such
step advisable at the present

At Norman Ranch

The Northwestern Remount

plan being for the procurement
/ of the best possible horses, simi-
lar to that which has been car.
ried out on the Blackfeet Reser-
, walton during the last decade OF
more. Today some of the best
horses of t ne government re

reason to believe that an II p. m.
