He was speaking at_the dinner given him by the New York section of the pational budget committee in New ork. “One may pause to say that the trouble (with the subservienc Congress) is the direct primar. clared Mr. Dawes. ‘Look what' the direct primary law has done to Con- Kress.

Listen to | congressmen who have been convicted of ‘bartering the - interests of the country’ are Republicans. One Re- publican congressman, just renomi- nated, is under sentence for taking bribes. At that, Republican congre: men are hardly worse than Rep lican cabinet officers. One of that class algo has been indicted on a charge of ‘bartering his country's in- terests.” “In this address, it will be observed, Mr. Dawes particularized the ‘aggres- sive minority organizations,’ which he mentioned without name in his speech ef acceptance. He names the ‘soldier bonus bloc, the fai bloe, the lakor bloc, the maternity bloc, the g00d roads bloc.' These are evidently what he must have had in mind Tuesday when he spoke of ‘aggres- sive minority orgsnfzations behind selfish purposes.’ “It may be confidently forecast that the Republican candidates, spellbind- ers and pamphleteers will soon be crediting the Republican Congress and the Republican administration with having passed laws that noto- ciously had among their chief advo- cates the ‘farm bloc, ‘the maternity bloc,” the ‘good roads bloc’ and they labor bloc.’ But Mr. Dawes says the Republican Congress enacted this legislation, not upon its merits. and for its own sake, but because of ‘cowardice.’ he night Mr. Dawes made that speech in New York he was as full of ‘reason’ and ‘causes’ for political and economic conditions as he was fluent in profanity. One of the additional or proximate causes he gave for the evils he bemoaned was this: “‘The American people think; they vocalize.’ “The managers of the Republican campaign had better induce Mr. Dawes to interpret himself before the campalign progresses much further. He ought to tell these various blocs whether his party wants their support this year and, above all, he ought to s: the Republican Sixty eighth Congress has any more ‘bal terers’ and ‘cowards’ in its member- ship than its Republican predecessor, the Sixty-seventh Congress, had.” i WHALING LURES SURGEON Britisher Comes to United States Specially to Study Industry.

With Calvin Cool- idge and Charles G. Dawes at the head of affairs, “that record is a earnest of what the future will be he said. Along lines of agriculture, finance, business and immigration the Repub- lican party has shown itself to have the “greater capacity to govern,” he serted. In the field of world affairs he referred to the limitation of arma- ments conference and the work of the reparations commission. “The people are not willing to risk now the experiment of nationalization or government ownership of railroads, with all the serious and doubtful questions involved in such an enter- prise, nor are they willing to take away from the Supreme Court of the United States the power of that great tribunal to interpret the law.” LINCOLN APPOINTEE OUT. United States Employe Retired After 50 Years’ Service. BOSTON, August 21.—After 50 years in the clvil service, Henry W. Berthrong, long employed in the cus- toms house here, today enjoyed the first day of his retirement.

BOSTON WILL HEAR- WHEELER LABOR DAY Active Campai o Progressives to Begin With Open-Air Meet on Commons.

Niles, acting head of the speakers’ bureau in Chicago, will be here to discuss plans with Senators La Fol lette and Wheeler, and on Saturday John M. Nelson, national campaign manager, with Chicago headquarters, will be 'in Washington for confer- ences with the two candidates.
