The record of the republican party { since the present administration came into power a little overa year ago has fully justified the confidence of the American people, Senator Jones of Washington declared in the Senate yesterday. The Washington senator surveyed the accomplishments of his party, giving particular attention to the Washington conference on limi- tation of armament and the legis- Iation enacted by Congress. His speech was in reply largely to re- cent attacks upon the republican ad- ministration by democrats. “On March 4 last the republican party took charge of every branch of the government,” said Senator Jones. “For a little over two years after the armistice the administration had been drifting in the midst of war problems. These problems were hard enough when the war ended. but they got worse and worse as time passed.” “Drifting” Increases Difficulty. Congress, he' sald, had looked to the democratic President for guidance jand leadership, “but it got neither.” When the republicans took charge they found the problems made more difficult by two years of peace drift- n; '3 “The burdens the people bear come trom the war and from democratic {ncompetency, and not from us.” sald Senator Jones. The war obligations, he sald, must be met, no matter what party is in power. “No matter how unwise the obligatien, no motter how wasteful the expenditure, we must fulfill our agreements and pay our debts,” he continued. “For many years,” said Senator | Jones, “good men and women have done much to promote world peace. They sought an organization among the nations of the world to secure and enforce it. A strong sentiment had been created and high hopes were held out that world peace would be | insured. When the world war came | to a close President Wilson placed himself at the head of this move- ment and sought by solemn treaty to do this great thing. His effort ended in failure; why, I will not say, but as the years go by the greatness of his aims and sacrifices will hide the causes for his failure. He left us in & humiliating position. Declares U. S. Had No Friend. “Without seeking the cause, it is enough to say that on the 4th of March, 1921, the United States was without a friend in the world. No people trusted us, no nation honored or respected us. That is all changed. We lead the nations .of. the. world. They honor, respect and trust us and seek our advice and counsel. This is due to the tactful, wise, states- manlike and patriotic conduct of the administration and Is an achicvement deserving of the highest commenda- tion. new but simple policy has been started that means much for the peace of the world. Nations have been brought together about the conference table to talk and reason over the dif- ferences and devise ways and means to promote mutual understandings and remove the causes of war. Its wisdom 18 now clear. That it will be a permanent practice among nations I}is ‘certain. This very great thing has been . brought about by this adminis- tration, and it will loom larger as the years go by. If nothing clse were done. this alone justifies last elcc- tion’s verdict. “The calling of the arms conference met a glad responee from every heart in the land that hopes for peace. The success it attained was beyond the dreams of the most hopeful. Its work will loom larger with the passing of time. Tt will lighten the burdens of humanity through the centuries and save generations vet unborn from the horrors of war. What man or woman can now regret a vote cast for War- ren G. Harding? Comments on Tax Revision. Turning to the legislation of the re- publican Congress, Senator Jones re- ferred to the tax revision act, saying: “It is now the law. It did not wholly meet the wishes of any one. No tax bill raising three or four bil- lions can be prepared by anybody that || will wholly satify any one. This law ||has many injustices in it. but they Diamond Values Real Bargains, offering exceptional oppor- tunity for Investment and in Greater Values than we have ever offered before.

The wonder is not that we did not get a better bill that we got one so good. We are |seeking through economy and effi-| i cient service to reduce the demands of the government so it can be fur- ther reduced and more equitably ad- usted.” Answers Tarlff Criticisms. Senator Jones said there was criti- cism betause the republicans had not | et passed the permanent tariff bill. e called attention # the fact that {it took from seven to ten months to pass tariff laws in normal times in |lhe past. Today, he said, conditions demanded extreme care, 50 a&s not to injure business. ‘"Fhe great need,” he said, “is to foster and encourage business. Labor, agriculture, {ndustry, transportation and business of all kinds must be guarded from every angle, and it is far better to move slowly but surely than to move swiftly and hurtfully.” Among the achievements of the re- publicans Senator Jones listed also the resolution declaring a state of peace between this country and Ger- | imany and Austria, the negotiation of peace treaties with those nations; the reduction of the Regular Army to 50,000 men, with a consequent re- duction of expenditures—although the democratic _FPresident had vetoed a > FOR A Cold or the Grip starts with a Chill; indicating checked cir- culation; the use ‘of “Seventy- seven” at once; restores the cir- culation of the blood and stops the Cold.

He listed, too, the im- migration restriction act. the laws ssed for the benefit of the farmer: ncluding the emergency - tariff act; the authorizing the War Finance Cor- poration to issue a billion dollars of securities to extentl the sale and ex- port of agricultural products; the gflcke(!’ bill. the law preventing gam- ling in grain futures and the c operative marketing act, the mater- nitv law, the Veterans' Bureau act and good roads legislation. Prohibition Lid Tightened. The Washington senator declared the republicans had made more effec- tive the enforcement of national pro- hibition. He paid tribute, too, to the administration of the various govern- ment departments under the present administration, referring particularly to the betterment of the postal serv- ice. Senator Jones said that during the republican administration the value of liberty bonds had increased until they are nearly all at par and some of them above par. This, he said, meant an increase in their value to the hold- ers of approximately a billion dollars. The republicans had practiced econ- £aid, in a manner entirely unknown to the democrats, who had speat recklessly the people’s money. Definite Program. “The democrats say we are drift- ing.” continued Senator Jones. at all. We have a definite program. He said that first on this program was the ratification of the ton conference treaties, which go a long way toward m world a fit plact to live i Other matters included in the pr gram, he said, were shipping legis- lation to make certain an adequate merchant marine; additional recla- mation legislation; legislation ex- pressing the nation’s gratitude to the soldiers; reclassification of govern- ment employes with fair salaries for work done, and reorganization of the government departments. BANDITS DISAPPOINTED. Seized Bag Was Not Pay Roll of New Orleans Firm. NEW ORLEANS, March 18.—A day- light hold-up, followed by a spectacular escape in an auto through crowded streets, ended In disappointment today for two bandits, who presumably be- lieved they had seized the pay roll of the Gulf Refining Company.

An- other messenger had a similar experi- ence with the same man Thursday afternoon, the police were told, the check on that occasion being for $20 made payable at a national bank. e police were told Ahat the twen- ty-dollar check was cashed, and later the signature to it was pronounced a forgery. Yesterday the check was made out' on another national bank. and purported to bear the signature of George A. Lawyer. Edward Peters, the messenger, knew of the affair earller in the week, and instead of going to the bank he went in search of a policeman. It is believed the man realized the messenger had gone for a policeman and he disappeared. He is described as about twenty-five years old and has a smooth face, pointed nose and dark hair, the police were told. He wore dark clothes, soft hat and tortoise: new spring colorings and fabrics.
