A man is known by the company he keeps.” Dawes then called attention to the endorsement of La Follette by the Socialist party. On August 29, Dawes will invade the home territory of Governor Bry- an with a speech in Lincoln, Neb. There he will discuss the non-parti san and economic agriculture ques- tions, which he said is of such vital importance to the national welfare, that he could not discuss it here and give it the full considerationgt demands. Discussing, the League of Nations, Dawes pointed to’ the enormous Re- publican majority in 1920 as a con- elusive mandate of the American people against membership. How- ever, he pointed out that: “The League of Nations, however noble may have been its {ntentions was not approved by the people of the United States because it did not make clear to their minds that it did not encroach upon the soverein- ity and the power and right of! in- dependent decision of the United States as to its own duty and action under all’ circumstances.

The sovereignity of the United States is fully safeguarded “in the propositions of President Coolidge in connection with the world court,” Dawes said.
