The League of tions is a practical so- lution of a practical situation. It is no more perfect than our original Constitution. which ha been amend- ed 18 times and will soon we hope, be amended. the 19th., was perfect. It is not anti-national, it is anti-war. N super-nation, binding us to the de- cisions of its tribunals is suggested, but the method and machinery by which the opinion of civiiization may become effective against those who seek war is at least within the reach of humanity. Through it we ‘may with nearly every other duly const tuted government in the whole world throw our moral force and our poten- tial power into the scale of peace. That an object should be con- trary to American polic is unthink- ble: buf if there be any citizen has honest fears that it may be per- verted from its plain intent so as to conflict with our established form of government, it will be simple to declare to him and to the other na- tions that the Constitution of the United States is in every way su- preme. There must be no equivoca- tion, no vagueness, no doubt dealing with the people on this issue. The league will not die. An idea does not die which meets the call of the hearts of our mothers such How to Get Peace. with peace. War may be “declared”, peace cannot It mus be established by mutual consent, by a meeting of the minds of the parti in interest. F'rom the practical point of view alone a peace by resolution of congress is unworkable From the point of view of the millions of splendid hope of days of peace for futare generations, a peace by reso- lution of congress is an insult and a denial of our national purpose. Today we are offered a seat at the table of the family of nations t® the cend t smaller people may be truly safe to work out their own destin) to the end that the sword shall not follow on the heels of the merchant, to the end that the burden of creaseing armies and navies shall lifted from the shoulders of a world already staggerin under the weight of taxation. We shall take that place. 1 say because —faith that this nation has no selfish | destiny, faith that our people are ! looking into the years bevond for better things, and that they not afraid to do their part. So too, in- say so are Neceds of the Nation. Among the most pressing of these national needs I place the bettering of our citizenship, the extension of teaching to over 5,000,000 of population above the age of ten wno are illiterate, the strengthening our immigration laws to exclude physically and morally unfit, the provement of working conditions cs pecially in the congested centers, the . extension of communications to make life more the protection of ana in industry. First of all the methods of the islative branch of the National gov- ernment, especially in the upper house require drastic changes. 1t is safe to say that the procedure of the conzress has progressed less with the time than in any other business body in the country. Yet it is upon the congress that every executive de- partment must wait. Appeals to the m- rural ther attractive, child life ot teg- who | be | I have faith | our | of | the | fur- ! house and senate in the last session fell on apparently deaf ears. In the administrative branch also great changes must take place. The functions of the departments should be redistributed along common-sense lines and methods provided to stan- dardize and prevent duplication of effort. Further, it is high time that government employment be placed upon a proper level. Under the safe- guard of civil service the salaries must approximate those paid in pri- vate employ. Today we are faced with the fact that the majority ot the most efficient government employes leave the service when they are bccoming valuable. The less useful re- main. Many millions of dollars could be sSaved to the taxpayers by re- classification of the service, by the payment ' of adequate compensation and by the rigid elimination of those who fail to measure up to a high standard. All of this also has been called to the attention of the pres- ent congress without result, and con- gress only can authorize the remedy. Chance for America. America’s opportunity is at hand. We can lead the world hy a great example, we can prove this nation a living., growing thing, with policies that are adequate to new conditions. In a thousand ways this is our hour of test. The democratic program of- ! fers a larger life for our country, a ! richer destiny for our people. It is a plan of hope. In these chiefly let it be our aim to build up, not to tear down. Our opposition is to the things which once existed, in order that they may never return. We op- pose money in politics, we oppose the private control of national fi- nances, we oppose the treating of human beings as commodities, we oppose the saloon-bossed city, we op- pose starvation wages, we oppose rule by groups or cliques. In the same way we oppose a mere period of coma in our national life. A greater America is our objective. Definite and continuing study shall be made of our industrial, fiscal and social problems. 1 look to our future for progress: in better citizenship, in less waste, in fairer renumeration for our labor, in more efficient governing, in higher standards of living. To this future I dedicate myself, willing, whatever may be the choice of the people, to continue to help as best as I am able. It is the faith which is in me that makes me very path of progress and set aside the certain that America will choose the doctrines of despair, the whisperings of cowardice, the narrow road to yes- terday. May the Guiding Spirit of our land keep our feet on the broad road that leads to a better tomorrow and give to us strength to carry on. | | i moest TILDEN HOME WITH TITLE.

My ol' friend pipe was sput- terin' an’ chokin’ up last nizht; the mornin’ sun brought no relief—it knowed things wasn't right. It worried on along until a little while ago, it said some things it thinks its friends had sartin orter know: “The smoke is flowin’ freely now; the dreams come jest the same, one great big fly ain’t stuck now in the oint- ment o' life's game.
