By the Associated Press OSHKOSH, Wis,, August 13.—The voters of Wisconsin were appealed to today by Senator Lenroot of that State to “see that no man hostile to President Coolidge” shall be sent by them to the United States Senate. Addressing a conference of Repub- licans gathered here to select a can didate for the seat made vacant by the death of Senator La Follette, Mr. Lenroot assailed the leaders of the o-called progressive administration’ of Wisconsin as “radicals,” and de- nounced their administration of Wis- consin affairs as a “dictatorship.” He “progressive ad- ministration” as the “trlumvirate at Madiso which determined “who thelr followers shall vote for,” adding that “every member of this trium- virate did everything he could last ar to destroy the Republican party.” ommon honesty and common de- cency,” he said, “would lead these gentlemen to keep off the Republican primary ballot, and if they wish to be- come candidates for office, to do so undet the name of their own party or in the independent column Says Issues Are Clean. “There is a clearly gefined issue be- tween these radical leaders in Wiscoh- sin and Republicans,” he continued. “They seek to divide our people into groups and classes, arraying group against group and class against class. They increase the expenses of the State governmen tfor the purpose of building a political machine and then try to appease the taxpayers by trying to make them believe that they In- crease only the taxes of the rich. In | the national fleld they would destroy our Constitution and make Congress supreme, with power to destroy every right of religious and civil lberty. “In Wisconsin for the past five years we have had a so-called pro- gressive administration. In the cam- paign about to begin we are golng to ask the people of Wisconsin what that administration has done for them, in what way their burdens of taxation have been lightened, in what way the circumetances of those not holding office have been bettered.

SCOTT ON STAND IN DVORCE CASE Many of Promised Sensa- tions Fail to Develop in Michigan Court. 13 By the Associated Press. ALPHENA, Mich., August 13.— When the names of Andrew Vol- stead, author of the prohibition law and his daughter, Laura, .were brought into the records of the di- vorce case of Representative Frank D. Scott against his wife, Edna James Scott, today, Scott testified neither had ever taken a drink of liquor as far as he knew Miss Volstead's name was found on a menu card of the Myrtle Bank Hotel, Kingston, Jamaica, which was in Scott's scrap book. Ward H. Peck, counsel for Mrs. Scott directed questioning toward it in an apparent effort to learn whether there was drinking aboard the steamer Cristo- bal on the congressional cruise to Panama in 1923. ‘Written on the card were several names including Miss Volstead's and Representative Scott's. Opposite Scott’s name was written “Planters Punch” and because of the notation the witness made the statement con- cerning Miss Volstead. “I do not believe Miss Volstead ever had a drink of intoxicating liquor in her life,” Mr. Scott said. “I want that made clear. And it also goes for her father.” Bensinger Denies Charge. Gilbert Bensinger of Washington denied in a deposition ever having con- dugted himself improperly with Mrs. Scott. He characterized Frederick Sikes, hotel detective, whose deposi- tion alleged improprieties seen through a keyhole, as a '‘musical comedy de- tective,” and denied all of Sikes’ testi- mony. In three depositions of Washington police officers the credibility of Sikes was attacked.

He addressed the open confer- ence on the recent foreign policy of the United States. i “China, once given the right to be-| came master of its own house, will de-| velop its neglected resources and cre. ate an efficient government free from | century-long foreign oppression,” he | declared. * * * “Disarmament and the | problems of the Far East cannot be | solved by a discussion of the rights of races to the territory in which they have lived for thousands of vears, or | of the ethics or lack of ethics of in-| ternational aggression and plunder, | but by the economic demonstration | that war for plunder does not pay “The only protection lies in educ t- | |ing those susceptible of education to become producers instead of attempt- ! ing to live by plunder; or in another | disarmament conference of the Orient | under the leadership of the United | States for abolition of would-be war | in Manchuria.

SAN DIEGO, Calif., August 13. —Six F-5-I coastal seaplanes and 26 submarines, destroyers, mine sweepers, aircraft, tenders and tugs will be used in guarding the sealanes during the Navy's flight of three planes from San Francisco to Pear]l Harbor, August 28 and 29. From San Francisco to the Is- land of Maul the line of flight will be guarded by the destroyers Wil- liam Jones, McCawley, Corry, Meyer, Doyen, Reno and Farragut, the mine sweeper Tanager and the aircraft carrler Langley and tender Aroostook. For the west end of the flight the tender Pelican will be 50 mil, southeast of Hilo and the tender’ Seagull 50 miles north of Kilauea Point on the novth coast of Kaual. Twelve submarines will be placed . at ;mu- intervals in a scouting i line from the area patrolled by the Pelican - through Point Watch, thence to where the Seagull will be stationed. Two destroyers were ordered to- day to take up station for the trip to San Francisco of the naval planes, which will make a non-stop flight to Hawali. Comdr. John Rogers, in charge of the flight, notified the Navy De- partment that the destroyers Wil- liam Jones and McCawley would stand by off Cape Mears and Cape Blanco, respectively, for the flight from Stattle of the PB-1. The same two will guard the PN-9 from San Diego to San Francisco, and later they will work with the planes until satisfactory radio communica- tion is assured.” When the hop-off is made, the destroyers will form links in the sea patrol which has been arranged.
