He believes, too, that the mask has effectually been torn off the real intentions of President Roosevelt and the New Deal, and that the country has before it an issue the people can understand—the issue of concentra- tion of more and more power in the hands of the Chief Executive in Wash- ington. “The grass roots conference at Springfield.” said Col. Knox today, “was in reality a political revival char- acterized by an almost religious inten- sity of feeling. It afforded the people of this region their first opportunity to express their convictions on the issues | of the impending campaign. It is| not unnatural that the Republicans of the Mississippi Valley should have a | more intense sense of loyalty to the | Lincoln traditions than that of the people of any other region of the United States. The name of Lincoln, | of course, is most closely associated with the thought of the preservation | of the Constitution and the institu- tions that flourish under it, and it was the effect of the Supreme Court decision on the N. R. A, and the President’s subsequent declaration that | the Constitution, as it is now written, stands as a barrier to the achievement of social justice, that loosed this | sentiment in such vigorous fashion in | both the speeches and the declarations | of the conference. It was a fortunate | circumstance that the conference fol- lowed so swiftly on the heels of this development in Washington because it provided the opportunity to emphasize the importance of the Federal prin- ciple in the government of a nation | 80 great in area, in population and 80 varied in interests as ours. “Any man who calmly sits down by himself and soberly faces actualities, | wMust recognize that there must al- ways be the greatest flexibility in our form of government if it is to con- tinue to be the Government of a people who vary so greatly in their | local interests as do the people, for | instance, who live in New England with the people who live in California, | or the people who live in Michigan | with the people who live in Louisiana, i | “It is a real contribution which the conference supplies at this time to straight thinking, to point with pow- erful emphasis to the necessity of pre- serving this Federal principle of sovereign States tied together under a central form of government of dele- | gated powers. The men who wrote the Constitution recognized from bit- ter experience that the threat to pop- ular liberties comes always from too great concentration of executive au- thority and they carefully guarded | against this danger in the expressed terms of the Constitution. [ The Main Issue. “The declarations of the Springfield conference make it inevitable that | this issue shall be the principal issue | in the fight ahead. and for the peo- ple who live in the region still domi- nated by the Lincolnian philosophy, this issue is welcome. “The conference did not overlook the collateral issues provided by the | record of the administration for the | past two years and a half. They de- clared for sound money; they declared | for a balanced budget; and they de- clared for an economical administra- tion of affairs, but all these latter is- sues may be found cogently set forth in the Democratic platform upon which Roosevelt was elected. “It is not without significance, po- titically, that the great issues empha- sized at Springfield rise far above | partisan lines. They will appeal not to Republicans alone, but in some of their essentials, they will appeal even | more powerfully, to members of the President’s own party. It is my ex- pectation that the campaign of 1936 will be conducted on a level far above | the ordinary partisan campaign of the | ast. Beating the Democrats in Illinois next year will be a tough job. They have developed a strong organization and control in a majority of the coun- ties. They have the Governor and two Senators and 21 of the 27 mem- bers of the House delegation. There is 8 senatorial election in 1936 with Senator James Hamilton Lewis up for re-election. He has always been a resourceful campaigner. Veteran of Two Wars. It is too early yet to predict how | far Col. Knox will get either with the unification of the Republicans into a fighting party or how far he will go as a presidential candidate. He has as a background in politics his work with the late President Theodore Roosevelt during the Bull Moose campaign. He had served with Roosevelt in the Rough Riders during the Spanish- American War, In fact, he is a veteran of two wars—that with Spain and the World ‘War. When this country entered the war in 1917, Knox, then editor of the Manchester Leader, enlisted as a pri- vate in the Ist New Hampshire In- fantry. Because of his Spanish War service, he was sent to an officers’ training camp and commissioned 78th Division. He was promoted to major and served with the 153d Ar- tillery Brigade of the 78th Division. Protests Music Curb. When Cashel, Irish Free State banned all but Irish dancing from the city hall, Councilman P. Phillipe pro- tested that he would be hard hit, be- cause he can play only the saxophone, which does not produce Irish music. SPECIAL NOTICES.

A million dollars a year to plan the Nation's economy far into the fu- ture was sought before a Senate committee yesterday by members of the National Planning Board. Contending such planning would save the natural and human resources of the country from “Lublic piunder,” Secretary Ickes joined three rasmbers of the Planning Board before the Commerce Committee in support of- the Copeland bill to put notional planning on a permanent basis. For Board of Five, The measure proposes creation of a boara of five appointed by the Presi- dent at salaries of $12,000 a vear to plaa “policies for the conservation and development cf the natural hu- man and other 1esources of the Na- tion.” Board members are Fredevic A.

R. A. Future, Says Former Chief in Magazine. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 14.—Gen. Hugh 8. Johnson “cracks down” on Presi- dent Roosevelt for an implied loss of spirit and leadership in a magazine article, published today, which 1is sharply eritical of the trend of the New Deal. ‘The former head of the N. R. A, writing in the American Magazine, calls upon his one-time chief to go directly to the people and end the present “reckless churning.” “The administration does not need any new plans,” he writes in a tone reminiscent of his vigorous defense of the Blue Eagle. “It does need a little of the spirit and fearless leadership which started the wheels going in 1933.” “We need one clear pronouncement from the President,” Johnson writes. “When he told people frequently what he planned to do and what he was doing. But today ‘no man knoweth the mind of the king.' “The immediate need to restore business activity, to restore faith to the people who have grown leery of promises and evasions, is to end the uncertainty and state a policy—good or bad.

Hitler and his associates are happy that at least one of the principal signatories of that treaty has finally admitted that that so- called peace pact is ended. “The peace conference which should have taken place immediately after the World War begins only now,” der Fuehrer is reported to have said when the news of Britain's ac- ceptance of the German naval terms ERMANY is jubilant over the new German-British naval agreement. | reached him in the Bavarian Moun- tains. * K K ¥ Germany feels that once more she has become one of the world's great | powers and has retaken her place “in the sun,” despite the opposition of France and her allies.

There is no doubt that the coming of Soviet Russia into the concert of European powers has not created the favorable impression—among the peo- ples of Europe—the politicians have been expecting. The much-hailed Franco-Soviet military alliance has found many opponents not only in the French population, but even among the military, who at one time were de- lighted by this combination. Seri- ous doubts are expressed in French military quarters about the ability of the Soviet to be of great heip to France in troubled times. - In Czechoslovakia, the eflect of the new Czechoslovak-Russian al- liance has had disastrous effects on Foreign Secretary Edward Benes’ party. Only a week after that new alliance was signed parliamentary elections were held in that country and the Nazi leader of Czechoslovakia, Hindlein, ob- tained an overwhelming majority in the chamber. The supposition is that | the Czechoslovak people, who are chiefly interested in the independence of their country, begin to believe that Its political sig- | nificance exceeds by far its | And what that business is, no- | |a closer association with Germany might prove more profitable than an adventurous association with the Rus- sians. | * ok ok ok | But, oddly enough, even Tl Duce,| { who had been foaming at the mouth every time the name of Hitler and ence, has begun to change his policy, eence, has begun to change his policy, | too.
