MCADOO’S criticism of what he calls! j-'* “Harding Deflation” is given the lie by his! ‘own previous utterances. In December, 1920, sev-| 15 anf 18 eral months before Mr. Harding became president, Mr. McAdoo wrote a special article for the Man-! ufacturers’ Record, of Baltimore, in which he, used these words: i “i am frank to say that I think the policies! to credits have I am sure that the situation should now be re-| viewed in the light of existing conditions, A more) liberal policy abont credits should be put into force imrnediately. I think that the reserve bank rates could be prudently reduced.” That language was used while David F. Hous- ton, a Democrat, was Secretary of the Treasury 09 3 [and ex-officio chairman of the federal reserve board, John Skelton- Williams, also a Democrat, was vice chairman and W. P. G. Ha: , also a! Democrat, was governor of the board. board }was overwhelmingly Democratic in its membership. Mr. Harding had not ever’ an indirect influence over the politics of the board at that time. But that is not all that Mr. McAdoo had to say about the policies of the federal reserve board in December, 1920. He declared that: “In many parts of the country, especially in the agricultural districts, credit is almost entirely wanting, and in many lines of legitimate business and industry great losses are being sustained be- cause of the restriction of credit.

' Mondell and Republicanism. OHN T. ADAMS, chairman of the Se tional committee, is a sincere patrio n an tisiedt citizen. All of his life he has labored for the advancement of the pepo party. Its rinciples were implanted in him in his boyhood y the stress of the period in which he grew Ups} following the days of the American ciyil strife. He believes in the Republican party and his theory of politics is that ‘n standing firmly by that party year in and year out more is accomplished for the good of the people and the welfare of the republic than by deserting the party for any im- aginary ill and following the banner of some other party because of attractive promises that it can- not and never does fulfill. The Bepublican party always rights itself after every storm and rides into safe harbor and his tory tells you of the shipwrecks of the Democratic party upon every voyage it has every: attempted, ‘whiie minor parties have launched themselves but none have ever got outside the harbor before coming to grief. The Republican party is therefore the only party that has never failed the people in their need. That is why Mr. Adams believes in it, has faith in it aud serves it. In a letter to the Tribune Mr. Adams this: “The times demand constructive legislation. The world war destroyed the accumulations of ¢en- turies. It saddled incredible tax burdens upon all nations. It disjointed industry. It changed the currents of trade. It brought about a condition which is threatening the stability of sound finan- cial systems. it bred a spirit of unrest which is menacing the institutions of orderly govern- ments. A s “Tt will require time, sane thinking and soun action to bring about a proper readjustment of political and economic affairs. |Mr. 3 ‘brought industrial chaos and ruin. | people. control until several months after Mr Harding had been inaugurated and new appointments could be made and confirmed by the senate. Incidentally, it is approppriate to remark that! doo has not only give himself the lie, but! ally impeached himself as a faithful pub- ic servant. He resigned his position as Secretary of the Treasury after having conducted the in- flation policies of the federal reserve board, an<| left the people at the mercy of his Democratic suc- cessers, who, according to his own statements, | On the pre- text that he needed to go out and make some money, | he qa te at a crucial moment. is selfishness then and his i would be sufficient ape tno public trust that Sufficient Glory for All. Harding and his true conception of the thar- acter of American institutions, are well illustrated oming, commending the work of the Present con- gress. He is one executive who does not belittle | the importance of Congress, either in its consti-; He gladly gives to the legislative branch .of the government full credit for the important and ef- fective part it has played in the work of after-war reconstruction, The president well says: that our plan of congressional government is not! proving equal to the strain of these times.” H This statement is reassuring to all those peo-| ple who stitl believe that the founders of this] government acted wisely ers among three co-ordinate branches. may be the inotive or purpose of the man who in- dulges in wholesals and unrestricted criticism of congress, the effect in undermining th is none the less anarchistic in its results. To con- demn a specific act of an individual member of! congress, assigning reasons therefor, is one thing; | wholesale condemnation of the legislative branch | of the government is something entirely different. the former is legitimate discussion of the record of a public servant. The latter is an attack upon the government itself. A man of small mind, or intense vanity, or sel- fish ambition, occupying a pominent executive po- sition, might dirtct. criticism toward the legis- lative branch of the government, thus giving rela- tively ter credit and importance to the execu- tive. President Harding is not that type of man. “The next decade will be a “Important pe- riod in America’s history. Its lve work will be far-reaching in consequences. During this pe- riod the nation will need the service of men of constructive ability and sound judgment. “The Republican party is recognized as a party of cantata’ It has. always stood for economi¢e ractices in industry, commerce, finance and pub- ic administration. It is a party of intense Amer icanism. It is the party upon which the country depends in this period of reconstruction. Representative Frank Mondell stands unequivo- cally for the principies of the Republican During his long career as a member of the United States house of representatives and a leader on the Republican side of the house, he has con- sistently and ably advocated those policies which made for the growth of the United States and the prosperity and welfare of its people. e@ up- holds the United States constitution and is a he- liever in constitutional government. He is 100 per cent American and is against substituting in- ternationalism for virile nationality which bronght the United States to. a dominant position in the family of nations! Prior to his public career, Mr. Mondell was actively engaged in business enterprises. He ‘played a conspicuous part in the development of ‘the abundant resources of his own state. As a legislator he has not lost the viewpoint of the tpractical man of affairs. He has been a clese stu- ident of economic and financial problems and his ‘sound judgment ‘has been reflected in his attitude and yote upon questions affecting the welfare of :business, industrial and agricultural Interests. ; Ie has always opposed the isms and the jquackeries that would mislead the unthinking and fresult in general disaster to the country. He does ‘not hold the economic fallacy that in order to help the world back to normal conditions it is necessary }to jeopardize American prosperity or abandon jAmerican ideals. He is against sectional and class legislation, fully aware that if this country is to grow and to prosper, the laws must be written and administered for all sections and all classes alike, These are the policies for which the Repub- lican party has stood since the day of its birth. It has been in charge of the government all but six- teen years since 1860. During that period under the pouries of the Republican party, the United States has developed, prospered, grown strong and won| the respect of every other nation. Representative Mondell has been an ‘able and convincing advocate of these policies. If the elec. torate of Wyoming believe such policies should pre- vail in the administration of In his re ee since he has been in the ouse, the president has lost no opportu- nity to indicate his apppreciation of the interiiye the intelligence and the efficiency of the legislative branch of the government. He does not assume as some. aaah pee do, ea pom he, disagrees with gress, foolish, dishon- est ae lineal (descendants ot Anentan: x examp! one that might well be followed by other gentlemen who seem willing to ataw the} limelight of public attention by cowardly attack upon members of congress and sevators in gen- .|¢ral when they have not the courage to be specific in criticism. Soe LS Practically Unanimous Endorsement Tear THERE IS no dissatisfaction within the Republican party with the record made by the present “congress, is clearly proved when out) of 269 Republican candidates for renomination se-| cured a vote of confidence and endorsement from | their constituents in the party primaries. But, even if there were a large number of defeats for Republicans for renomination, this would be no} source of encouragement for the Democrats. Be- cause Las ae oer prefer one candidate rather than another as their representatives in the nation- al legislative body. The erat assertion that the country is dissatisisfied with the Republican administration is disproved by the records which show that of 259 Itepublicans seeking renomination for congress all but 14 received a vote for approval from the mem- bers of their party. The number defeated is no greater than usual. In every rimary, some mem- bers of congress go down to de! eat, and this is true of one party as well as the other. Local conditions and issues always result in retirement ¢f a few members by their own party primaries. The issue in the coming election is not whether| the people of the country are entirely satisfied. with each and every act of their spokesmen at Washington. No one expects the record of any) member of con; is to be perfect. So long as opiu- ions differ and human nature is less than omnip-! otent just so long will some of the people disap-;| prove of some of the acts of their chosen represen-| tatives. | The real issue in the November elections is! whether the country wants to go back to Demo- cratic administration of national affairs. There! is nothing in the Republican primary vote to in-| dicate that the Republicans of the country have any intention of voting for a return to Wilsonism, for, in the proportion of 245 to 14, they have voted approval of the record of their representatives and a 4 i public affairs they|in the 14 instances ther have nominated’ men who that they should now greet you with phould give to him their suppor. and their vote. meet their ideas of what a representative should be. a [THE MAGNANIMOUS NATURE of Warren G.|has been in in his recent letter to Congressman Mondell, of Wy- Penserittc mismanagement, but far greater possible, “One must dissent from the too prevalent idea! th in distributing its pow.|!tes. 20d thus might mislead ;the stu Whatever 22" fe government | who are demanding 4 revision: Returning to 2 Democratic regime is a Salton Lie freee any: SAINT eiag’ af couaternition. agtwio keer Feqeined the "approval of)ithe| Tieat ublic atteiee WHLTSCeher tat th eee eight years of its incumbency, the Democratic par- |ty broke every pledge it made in ress has been made than anyone believed Going back to a Democratic regime has a ae i = s 7 {and specific meaning.
