KEEP ALL PROMISES, COPELAND ADVISES | . Tells Democrats Party Then Will Be Deserving of Success He Predicts. URGES ECONOMIC PARLEY Says President Should Act to Sta: bilize World Trade. “We should not make any rash or ill-advised promises, but we should be determined that every promise made will be kept, and then the democratic party will be deserving of the success that is coming to it in the next election,” Senator Copeland of New York declared in an address be- | fore the National Democratic Club of Washington at the Raleigh Hotel last night. Senator Copeland stressed the ne- cessity of remembering promises and declared one of the chief reasons for his support of the bonus bill was that he had plédged himself to it in his election campaign. “I will vote for it if T am the only one in the Senate to do so,” he declared, explaining that he had other reasons also for supporting the measure. “I would not care to have my party succeed unless I believed that its suc- cess would best serve the country,” Senator Copeland added. He praised the democratic attitude in favoring the right of collective bargaining by labor. ~ “The laboring man is the first to feel depression and the last to feel the benefits of good times,” the sena- tor continued, saying that the work- 1 ing man had no chance for advance- ment until he used the force of col- lective bargaining.

Ho de- clared the arms conference a failure. ‘France - only built airplanes, sub- marineg, went into the Ruhr and took ofher similar measures with the money she saved by limiting her inavy,” he asserted. “If wo could put the world to work and mgke the peo- | ple of all nations prosper economi- ' cglly, hatred and war would disap- pear.” Touching upon the situation in the wheat belt, the New York semator sald that “government help would be inexcusable under ordinary circum. stances, but the situation as it is now is an emergency that must be mef He argued that there would be no prosperity here until Furope was re- Rabilitated and forelgn Janor 1 paid on an equality with that of the United State: Tells of Cheap Laber Abroad. “The other day I was Visited by rep- resentatives of the one million needle- workers in New York city, who were alarmed because last week a boat} load of women's garments was Janded at New York. The clothes had been sent from Czechoslovakia, where the women are working for a penny a day,” the senator stated. Referring a moment to conditions the Capitol, Senator’ Copeland “It's mighty bad to be a re- publican now. ° I am not usually sor- ry for republican I am sorry for them now—it's hard times for them, and after the voting they will have many lean years ahead of them.” Mrs. William Ath'rton Dupuy, 19 touring the country, speaking in the Yinterest of the democratic party, at said, outlined the history of the country's activities in the conservation of land and resources. She declared that ex- cluding Alaskan territorial posses- sions, the enlargement of the coun- try had taken place under democratic Presidents. She told her audience that there were 2,000 woman's demo- cratic clubs throughout the country.

'REVENUE OFFICERS AMUSEMENTS~ 1 Life's Evemng i- I know a gross of ancient men who rest, in life’s decline, enjoying sweet and tranquil days beneath the tree and vine. I live where wintry men abound; they sit beside the sea, white whiskers reaching - to the ground—irom grief and trouble free. They labored well when they were hale,- they earned an honest wage, and salted down a little kale to keep them in old age.
