The meeting was then turned over to Major F. L. Wilcox. He fligo gave a brief speech which con- | tdined much praise for Senator Bran- degeo and in Wwhich he sald a man fwas not entitled to vote if he did not votof§ for Brandegee. Before the 0 o8 wero delivered a solo was ..Z'm.. by Walter Hart. Although J. H. Trumbull sald he had no intentlons of delivering h when asked to attend the : he gave one which was greeted th appause. He sald: “As this is the first time women have had the right to vote it Is my duty to tell them a little about it. I urge every woman in this gathering to study the political conditions of the country and then vote as your consclence dictates Wil not as the family says. We have bean through a period of autocratic vernment for elght years which had nothing on the kalser's rule We all know what Wilson has done for us. Now let us talk about our next president “Senator Harding has had a wide # experience In politics and will be will- ing to consult with his colleagues in all his work. He will not ignore the ate, congress and the people as lson did. Difficult problems can- not be worked out by a one-man 4 power. They must have united pow fn which there Is unity of thought and ideas, . “1 have only the highest of praise lor the next governor of Connecticut slwnr.n J. Lake. He is a man of busi. ness ability and thoroughly knows the conditiona of the state. [ am in hopes that every woman will cast her vote for the Republican tick to help Everett Lake into office.” E. Fenn Hart Speaks. Fenn Hart, candidate for con- gress trom the first congressional dis- trict, was the next speaker. Mr. Hart opened his speech with.a few words of his boyhood days spent in Berlin with Major Wilcax. He recalled the days as to when his grandfather was o staunch Republican and stood up 0. the entire platform of that good old party. In his own wards: “I have known the Republican party for the past 64 years and no one can tell me anything about it. The Republican party of today is the same staunch old party as when led by the famous Abraham Lincoln It has always had the ability to finance it own affaira After the Civil war things went down rebliilt, later the Panama canal s financed and the Spanish war debts were paldl until we did not know what a tax was. Money for these was raised by a tax on whiskey and from the import duty. “I belleve that reconstruction work ‘is one of the important measures of today, aso the protection of agricul- ture and manufacturing industries. Another great matter confronting the American public is the League of Na- tiond. 1 do not think that this ought to be a party matter and it is a known fact that if the Democrats had the op- portunity to get rid of it they would.” Miss Price Praises Brandegee. Major Wilcox then announced Miss Lucy Price as the third speaker on the prgram and said that she had beén brought here because the Re- publican town committee wanted capable woman. He asked her with- out fear ‘or favor to speak the words that were in her mind. This was greeted by applause. She said: “I am ndt going to speak on anti- suffrage or suffrage, as that is now a past issue. I will devote my time w #he present campaign. I believe that in all campaigns there are three things to be considered. They are, (1) record of the party; (2) issues for the future, and (3), the personality of the candidates. Let us cansider the last in regards to Mr. Harding. If any of you have read the straw vate being conducted throughout the country you will see that Ohio is overwhelmingly for Harding. The Democrats say that he is not a man for the position as he was absent from the roll eall in the senate several times. If thoy had lcoked into the matter they would have found out that he had been working for the shipping board and had to be out. But If it was an important issue he was always there. “Senator Brandegoc has been a brave, brilliant, outstanding member of the senate. The people should be glad to think that he dfd not vote | for the child labor bill. This bill was considered by him as unconstitutional and wa later found out to be so. 1 | 4o not think that the women will vote for revenge on one man. The Demo- cratsa only are bringing this point agninst him." “Our Next Governor. Major Wilcox then introduced Everett J. Lake as “our next gover- nor.” “I am going to talk on the tariff issue which was attacked several years ago. This issue is not pushed to the front now, but the reconstruction pe riod will bring it forward e speak- er began. Continuing, he “I am being told by* hundreds of people daily that this is the great- est campaign that was ever con- ducted by either party. 1 do . not ieve it, as I think all «camipaigns are the most important in thelr time All the speeches in the present cam- pailgn are on the rights of consti- tutional government. The colonie came over here from England to be free. The levolutiénary war showed the world that they were always t be free. It really brought them xz the realization of freedom. I think that the issue on constitutional gov- ernment is greater than the issues on tariff and foreign relations. ‘America for America’ is the real meaning of this issue. The demo- crats want us to figure in an inter- national association. I despise this I believe in America first, last and all the time. FEven though we do help out foreign nations I do not think we should be put under bonds to do it “I thing it is a pity to compare Wilsen with Lloyd rge or Ciem- enceau on the League of Nations question as Wilson was blind in both eyes. He was o blind that he did and not up as ai present. The NavY .0 4now that the clause relative to traffic in women, children and opium was included in the covenant. “I am not” going to defend Mr. Brandegee but I am going to brag about him. Semator Brandegce is a j man, who, if he saw a thing and be- lieved in it, told them so. If he did not believe it he also told them. He has run true for 15 years in the senate and I believe it the duty of every republican to vote for him. If you do not vote for him you do not believe in the republican party. “It is said that Cox is the slickest politician Ohio has produced and I believe it. He and the rest of his party say that Harding has flopped but he s not and that will be proved when he takes the chair in March “I will now talk to the girls. The women have only had sine or 10 weeks to dearn what the men learned in nine and 10 years. Don't assume the fact that you know all about con- ditions but go and talk thinks over with ‘hubby’ and then vote as you darn please. Denies Being Paid. In an interview with Miss Lucy Price, which was granted after the. rally, she said in reply to a question: “I am not paid to speak. I am hired by the state republican committee as publicity director in headquarters. I put in from eight to 10 hours a day at my desk in Hartford. In the even- ings I do speak at town rallies, etc., but this is outside work for which I receive no pay. As a woman I am supposed to put in only eight hours a day and all that T do after that is of my own accord. Kilby House Raided The K#by House in Kensington was raided for the third time in two | months yesterday afternoon. The raid was conducted by the local authorities under the direction of Prosecutor C. F. Lewis. Steve Meski, the new pro- prietor was arrested on the charge of selling intoxicating liquor, and Louis Molesky, Frank and John Doisjke and Joseph Glumbsky of New Britain, on the charge of gambling. Meski will also be charged with running a gambling house. Four bottles of brandy q“d some whiskey were found by the author ties. Of 20 men who were in_the hotel at the time of the raid only the above quintet will appear in cpurt Tuesday evening as enough evidence could not be procured against the rest. All five were released under a ca, bond. Another charge may beé checked against the proprietor becanse of a complaint made to Mr. Lewis by Tony Sodam. The latter claims he went to the Kilby House last night with two other men d after buying a drink of whiskey took out a pocketbook containing $60 in bhills. It is alleged that either the bar- tender or the proprietor, he did not know which, took the pockethook away from him and ordered the men to leave the house.
