NON-PARTISAN LEAGUE SMACKS OF BOLSHEVISM, ASSERTS T. R. IN LATE ADDRESS AT BILLINGS Class Division Scored as Un-American and Pro-German; Country Derelict in Not Warring on Bulgaria [By Aswocinted Press] BILLINGS, Mont., Oct. 7.—America cannot afford to dc-|; cept the lead of any party or of any organization calling itself Helea-Wyo. non-partisan, but really acting as a party, which is not first and | Jupiter foremost American, and nothing but American, declared Theo-!Glenhurst dore Roosevelt here Saturday night in an address in which he | Kinney outlined the various phases of the war and its many sidelights. | Merritt -- “There are real and grave causes for complaint among the farmers here in the Northwest,” the former president continued as he read from a paper figures which purported to show discrépancies in connection with the prices paid for wheat and in freight rates, but he asserted that “many of the remédies proposed are not only false, but mischevious, and very grave alarm may be caused by thé character of the agitation con- ducte@ by some of the men who pro- fess to be seeking these remedies. “To introduce state socialism as a relief for these conditions would re sult in nothing but widespread dam- age. Some of the conditions com- plained of can be mét by state action. There should be federal control of eléyators and floyr mills with éstab- lishéd terminal elevators at conven- ient points. No Class Distinctions “But I emphatically disbelieve in any party, and “éspecially if that party calls itself a non-partisan party which organizes a single Class against other classes. I object just as strongly wether such a political or- ganization claims to be in the in- terest of townspeople, or country people, of merchants, lawyers, farm- ers or wage eurners. “When the non-partisan league first appeared I was inclined to wel- come it and it was with‘ real reluc- tance that I was obliged to believe that the leadership that-controlled it was of such character as to threaten this country with evils analogous to those which come from Bolshevism abroad and from I. W. W.’ism at home. Evidence Against League “Finally, the meeting of the league at Minneapolis about a year ago was turned into a ghost dance of the Huns-Within-Our-Gates, and it be- came evident to me that insofar as they dared, the most prominent lead- ers of the league were playing a game of sedition and disloyalty and that they were seeking to acquire power by pandering to and influenc- ing the base spirit of greed and envy . and ignorance and class hatred. They were trying to do what Lenine and Trotzky have done to Russia. “The I. W. W. headers have been convicted of disloyalty and yet it was the head of this organization, W. D. Haywood, that the secretary of the Non-Partisan League wrote on April 5, 1917, a letter in which he spoke of ‘this damned war business.’ “There isn’t a German abroad, a pro-German at home who does not wish siiccess to the Non-Partisan Leagué as at present controlled, and to the I. W. W.” Colonel Roos¢velt asserted that the two great issues at this time were to put thru the war successfully and in- sist on thorogoing Americanism. Germany Ostracized c In connection with Germany’s pro- posal to enter a league of nations, Mr. Roosevelt vehemently declared that until Germany had been “beaten! to her knees and just so long as Ger- many is under her present govern- ment, to allow her to join such a league would be like asking outlaws, train-robbers and gunmen to join a sheriff's posse as guardians of the peace.” “We have a league of free nations now that is an actual going concern,” continued the colonel, “and inasumch as we are members of tha have been culpably derelict in our duty in not long ago declaring war on the armed enemies of the league, Turkey and Bulgaria. We have. wrongfully left our lies to win without our aid, decisive victories | over these two vassal states of Ger- many.” Recognition for Oppressed The speaker advocated the recog- nition of the Jugo-Slavs, Armenians, Poles and other oppressed nationali- ties, as wéll as the Czecho-Slovaks, and continued: “But we must nog expect from such a league more than it can do, nor} ourselves promise more than We can perform; and We must néver forget that such a league to enforce peace, | or league 6f nations, must be treated as an addition to, and under no cir-| cumstancés a substitute for, thé pre- paring for our own defens: Unicle | Sam must, in the fast analysis, rely on himself for his own safety and mot on scraps of paper signed by| others.” : | Beaver. | and a certain portion of land g’ {of Russians. FLYER’S NERVES ARE CONSIDERED BY HIS TRAINER By CAPT. PAUL BEWSHER of the Royal Air Force (Writtén for the United Press.) LONDON, Sept. 28.—(By Mail) — During the whole career of a British airman the vital factor of tempera- ment is taken into. consideration. Long ago it was realized that flying called for special qualities, and that the human element had to be con- sidered. This is doubly true of war-flying. From the training ground to ality of each individual British air- man is closely watched, and is care- fully considered. Before he begins his instructions he is given one or more trips in a machine to introduce him to the new element, in order that he may see how he likes it. If he cannot stand it, which is very unusual, he need never fly again. During the period of instruction he is allowed to take more and more control, in accordance with his abili- ties and inclinations, and so feelings of nervousness are gradually elimi- nated. The pupil is not allowed to fly alone until he is absolutely quali- fied to do so. Before his first flight alone, he flies the machine many times. with the instructor in the sec- ond seat ready to take control if necessary and intently watching his progress. When the pupil feels confident that he can fly, and the instructor is satisfied that he is a safe pilot, he is allowed to fly alone. Trick flying by inexperienced pilots is forbidden, and is puffished. During his practice flying the pilot is under observation and is not allow- ed to fly too long at a strétch, or too. often in one day. In this way confidérice is built up and the airman becomés as much at home in the air as on the grotmd. If he is not well, he is not allowed to fly. If he has a slight accident which is likely to shake his nerve he is given a rest. If he should be in- jured he is given a léng period of convalescence in ordér that his nerves may settle down and he may be quite fit te fly again. As soon as a pilot om active ser- vice has “flown himself out” and is tired and has lost his keenness he is sent back to Englandefor a long rest If at any time he does nof feel like flying he is given a holiday. Thus is the véry best got out of | They are keen enough) the airmen. not to want a few non-flying days until they feel they absolutely must have rest; at the same time they know the medical officer will order it the moment it is necessary. But if there is strain, there is also exhil@fation. Airmen love the Sen- safion of flying and love to feel the machine obeying the slightest touc: The fighting airmen, moreover, en- joy the fierce delights of single com- bat. Fighting in the air is sporting and often chivalrous. Airmen, more _than any other modern soldiers, can enjoy the feelings that animated Couer de Lion and the Black Prince.
