Banks Kurtz of Pennsylvania declared vester- | (Copyright, 1928.) day afternoon at the joint Memorial day services in the Arlington Ampi- ter. =Of all of the nations of history,” he | said, “the United States stands forth as an altruistic nation. a nation that has | pever fought an unrighteous war” Representative Kurtz pointed out that | while in some wars America became | posssessed of lands. “she never fought | for the acquisition of territory, for the | extension of a boundary line or the indemnity of a dollar.” The legislator paid a tribute to the *“motherhood and womanhood of America.” whose bravery in giving thoir Joved ones to a cause is not exceeded | by the men who go forth to battle. Plea for Disabled. Similar senttments were expressed by | former Senator Rice W. Means of Colo rado, past commander-in-chief of the | United Spanish War Veterans. He| woiced a plea for proper care of disabled | weterans and for the families of veter- | ans in need of support. America’s able- bodied service men should see to it thet | their disabled comrades obtain adequate recompense from the Government and that widows and orphans are afforded sufficient financial aid. The Nation® military dead, he said. bind all interests together with bonds of mutual love. | “Many lie in peaceful graves in this| eountry, some lie wrapped in the folos | ©f the great ocean. some lie amid the | wreck of hard-fought fields in manv | countries of the world. some lie buried | in those narrow little graves whers | French hospitals lay out their dead.” | he said. “Wherever they may lie they | #hall stand forevermore. though unseen by human eyes, the guardian sentinel of this Nation's love.” : | Veterans of the Civil, Spanish-Amer- | ican and World wars, high officials of | Government and a large representation | ister modesty. “Why, dozens of that is more com- petent to fill this office than I am.” Well, I don't feel ! that way about it at all, for, after all, it’s only the office of candidate that T am accepting. You know, it don't take near as good a man to be a candidate as it does to hold the office. That's why we wisely defeat more than we elect. ‘There is one thing there won't be in our party, and that's party leaders. I thi that what hurts our two big parties worse than get- ting caught is party leaders. No party i bad as its leaders. We are also going to try and eliminate slogans. Slogans have been more harmful to the country than Bo-Weevil, Luncheon Clubs, Sand Fleas, Detours, Conventions and Golf Pants. Now we may alienate the entire female vote, but there will be no effort for sex appeal. Of course, if it unconsciously manifests itself, why, we can't. help it, but it will, by no means, be one of the planks of our platform. In short, our plat- form will be WHATEVER THE OTHER FELLOW DON'T DO, WE WILL.
