Published Detiy Ry The Star A-ciase matter Ado per month up te ¢ mes Postottion as # year, In Justice to Republicans T IS exceedingly unfair to the republi can party to accept statements made by W. M. Whitney, “handpicked” candi date for congress, as real sentiments of the rank and file of the republicans of this state. Whitney is today making the clownish statement that nonpartisanship is “sexless and un-American.” Two years ago, Whitney, as republican county chairman, failed dismally to rep resent the sentiment of the rank and file of his party when he denied rightful as- sistance to “dry” watchers at the polls. The vote for the dry law during a mon ster republican landslide distinctly shows how utterly Whitney was apart from the rank and file of republican voters. Like wise, today, he fails to represent any one but himself in his absurd characterization of nonpartisanship To describe nonpartisanship as less and un-American” is to belie the re publican party efforts to secure a non- partisan tariff board, which Whitney him- self says he favors. Whitney apparently would have the question of preparedness discussed as a partisan matter rather than as a non- partisan American matter. He would place an “un-American” stig- ma on our superior and supreme court judges, who are already being elected as nonpartisans. He would place a “sexless, un-American” brand on our mayors, coun- cilmen, school boards and other city of- ficials elected under nonpartisanship to- day. Whitney's individual views for or against nonpartisanship are inconsequen- tial. They are referred to here merely to point out that his individual opinion is not that of the republicans—the rank and file—of this state The republicans helped to make our judges, mayors, coun cils, and other offices nonpartisan and they're going to extend this principle to county and state officers for exactly the same reason—to get rid of party bossism and slavery. Who Should Pay for Preparedness? ET every man enjoy the game of moneymaking but let him realize that for every stage he rises in playing the game successfully, his responsibility increases,” says Samuel McCune Lindsay, professor of social legislation at Colum- bia university. Paying for preparedness is in the end the chief responsibility of the very rich, Lindsay believes. “Tt is the sort of thing,” he said recently before a New York political club, “that should be wholly paid for out of large fortunes. The large holdings of property represent the greatest need for preparedness. They have the most at stake and they should bear the cost.” Radical thought is as old as Job, there- fore it seldom has an original sound; but old or new, reactionism always startles somebody, and Prof. Lindsay’s theory is sure to arouse considerable discussion among the thousands who are convinced that man has not yet arrived at the best possible social system. se So far has at once, een progress of a com- his is natural commercial simple But, A tight 6 m- tue -MOST ANYTHING =) Hine little drug store, fret; ie dry, but you're our fellow Perey Bronson, at the speak with authority. date yet?
