JUSTICE HUGHES SENDS LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE Has Resigned His Ready for the. Campaign. ‘Washington, June 11.—Fully indors- ing the platform you have adopted, Charles Evans Hughes yesterday af- ternoon telegraphed to Senator War- ren G. Harding, chairman of the re- publican national convention at Chi- cago, that he accepted the presidential nomination. The telegram stated that Mr. Hughes had resigned his judicial office and was ready to devote himself unre- servedly to the campaign. Mr. Hughes’ message follows: “Mr. Chairman and Delegates:—I have not desired the nomination. 1 have wished to remain on the bench. But in this critical period in our na- tional history I recognize that it is your right to summon and that it is my paramount duty to respond. You speak at a time of national exigency transcending merely partisan consid- erations. You voice the demand for a dominant, thoroughgoing American- ism, with firm protective upbuilding policies essential to our peace and se- curity, and to that call in this crisis I cannot fail to answer with the pledge of all that is in me to the ser- vice of our country. - Therefore I ac- cept the nomination. Firm for Americanism. “I stand for the firm and unflinching maintenance of all the rights of Amer- ican citizens on land or sea. I nei- ther impugn motives nor underesti- mate difficulties. But it is Jnost re- gretably true that in our foreign re- lations we have suffered incalculably from the ‘weak and vacillating course which has been taken with regard to Mexico—a course lamentably wrong with regard to both our rights and our duties. We interfered without consistency, and while seeking to dic- tate when we were not concerned we utterly failed to appreciate and dis- charge our plain duty to our own citi- zens. “At the outset of the administration the high responsibilities of our diplo- matic intercourse with foreign nations were subordinated to a conception- of partisan requirements and we present- ed to the world a humiliating specta- cle of ineptitude. Belated efforts have not availed to recoyer the influence and prestige so unfortunately sacri- ficed and brave words have been strip- ped of their force by indecision. To “Restore Diplomacy to Its Best Standard.” “I desire to see our diplomacy re- stored to its best ?mndz-rd and to have these advanced, to have no sac- rifices of national interest to partisan expediences, to have the first ability of the country always at its command here and abroad in diplomatic inter- course, to maintain firmly éur rights under international law, insisting steadfastly upon all our rights as mu- tual and fully performing our inter- national obligations, and by the clear correctness. and justness of our posi- tion and our manifest ability and dis- position to sustain them to dignify our place among the nations. “I stand for an Americanism that knows no ulterior purpose; for a pa- triotism that is single and complete. Whether native or naturalized, whatever race or creed, we have but one country, and we do not for an in- stant tolerate ‘any division of alle- COOLMOR PORCH SCREENS are comfortably low. iance. “I believe in making prompt pro- vision to assure absolutely our na. tional ‘security. I believe in prepared ness, not only entirely adequate . for our defence with respect to numbers and equipment in both army and navy, but with all thoroughness to the end that in each branch of the service there may be the utmost efficiency un- der the most competent administra- tive heads and devoted to the ideals of honorable peace. “We wish to promote all wise and practicable measures for the just set- tlement of the international disputes. In view of our abiding ideals, there is no danger of militarism in this coun- try. We have no policy of aggres- sion, no lust for territory, no zeal for strife. “It is in this spirit that we demand adequate provision for national de- fence and we condemn the inexcusable neglect that has been shown in this matter of first national importance. ‘We must have the strength which self- respect demands, the h of an Of | efficient nation ready for every emer- gency. His Three Kinds of Preparedness “Our preparation must be industrial and economic as well as military. Our severest tests will come after the war is over. We must make a fair and wise readjustment of the tariff, in ac- cordance with sound protective prin- ciple, to insure our economic inde- pendence and to maintaip American standards of living. ‘We must conserve the just interests | of labor, realizing that in democracy { patriotism and national strength must In be rooted in even handed justice. preventing, as we must, unjust dis- | criminations and monopolistic prac- tices, we must still be zealous to as- Dress e & ORCH SHADES: PBea iful, ctive,Durable Don't Flap inthe Wind . are handsome and will give longer and better service than other kinds.

We must not throttle American enterprise here or abroad, but rather promote it and take pride in honorable achievements. ‘We must take up the serious problems of transportation, of interstate and foretign commerce, in a sensible and candid manner and provide an endur- ing basis for prosperity by the intelli- gent use of the constitutional powers of congress so as adequate to protect the public on the one hand and on the other to conserve the essential in- strumentalities of progress. = “I stand for the principles of our civil service laws. In every depart- ment of government the highest effi- clency must be insisted upon. For all laws and programs are vain without efficient and impartial administration. “I cannot within the limits of this statment speak upon all the subjects that will require attention I can only say that I fully indorse the platform you have adopted. “I deeply appreciate ity you impose. I should have been glad to have that responsibility placed upon another. But I shall undertake to meet it, grateful for the confidence you express. 1 sincerely trust that all former differences may be forgotten and that we may have united effort in a patriotic realization of our national need.and oppertunity. “I have my judicial office and I am ready to devote myself un- reservedly to the campaign.
