Heroine of Democratic Convention Is Revealed. «+. Roosevelt Had Three Able Help- ers in Drafting His Philadelphia Address. By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Washington, July 6.—The next big political date is July 23. Governor Landon then makes his speech in To- peka, accepting the Republican presi- dential nomination. As the game stands now, the Re- publicans have had one shake and the Democrats have had two and the Democrats have a horse on the Re- publicans. The Landons wrote their party platform at Cleveland and the Roosevelts have had two grand chances to shoot at it—with the Democratic platform and the presi- ie; dent's speech of acceptance at Phil- phages fap adelphia.

The public has not been fairly protected by the federal government in the unrestricted sale of such drugs. < Carefully controlled clinical tests of the value of salicylates in the treat- ment of acute infectious arthritis (rheumatic (fever) has proved that these remedies do NOT shorten the duration of the illness nor lessen the frequency of heart involvement, though they do palliate the pain of the disease.

Mr. Wallace pays his respects to the property-owners of the country who, he thinks, are given special protection under the constitution and he under- takes also to criticise the churches for their failure to inaugurate “an effec- tive discipline” on property accumu- lation. He is especially caustic about Protestantism, which he thinks in our industrial centers is too identical with “the upper-class way of life.” But here is the quotation in which, for some unexplained reason, the church is brought into the discussion of a scheme for the political govern- ance of the nation. Mr. Wallace writes: “Somewhat in the manner that judicial interpretation was to deny both federal and state power to regu- late miodern business in the United States, the Protestant ethic, freed from the retraints of the Roman church, failed to develop an effective discipline for the social administra- tion of great accumulations of prop- erty. In both cases a wide ‘twilight zone’ was created, in which the jungle law of tooth and nail prevailed. e“Many aspects of the Protestant faith no longer grip the imagination of the people of the United States, as was once the case, but the great mid- dle class, especially in the farm re- gion, still works, denies, accumulates, and trains the children of the next generation in the same spirit as al- doctrine have been almost completely lost. “In the great industrial centers @ curious transformation has taken place. In these’ areas Protestantism has become to a considerable extent identical with the upper-class way of life. The essential faith of this class is a belief in hard work, thrift, sav- ing, the sacredness of capital, and the moral right of such a group to con- tinue to govern, profit, and reap the rewards of a good life... . “Probably no mental approach to reality was better adapted to rapidly expanding wealth production than the Protestant approach. Unfortu- nately, it has not been quite well from Mr. Wallace's book is that thrift, saving, and the right to profit and the reaping of the rewards of a good life are somehow out of favor with fiance, ling one of the ‘VIA, that he "t' afford to looking up job coming towa: When Phil and Camilla left them alone for a little while, Bob smiled quietly.
