THE TICKET AND PLATFORM The outstanding feature of the 18th National Convention of the Republican party, which has just concluded its labors, was the voicing by the delegates of their faith in Calvin Coolidge. The President and his running mate, Chas. G. Dawes, another striking example of sterling American manhood, go before the voters on a platform which should win for the Republican ticket the votes of many Democrats. The platform is free from political bunkum. It is an honest, straightforward statement of the things for which the Republican party stands. A brief summary of the platform shows that the President and his party are pledged to governmental economy; to tax reforms that will still further reduce the burden of taxation; that the strictest scrutiny will be made so that the integrity of the Budget System may be preserved. It declares that the Republican administration slashed $200,000,000 from the cost of government and eliminated 50,000 employees from the payroll; that the Administration lifted the tax burden some $1,250,000,000 per annum, at the same time reducing the public debt by over $2,500,000,000. The platform refers to the fact that in 1920, when the Republicans took office, that there were about three million men out of work in the country and that today there is little if any unemployment. The party is pledged to give to the farmer all necessary government assistance in organizing and establishing a system for the cooperative marketing of agricultural products. It promises to aid and simplify as well as the cheapening of our marketing and distributing machinery. It promises departmental help in diversified farming and if necessary, direct financial aid during the transition period of diversification. There is also a pledge to oil for anything except oil and to require competitive bidding. The recommendation in favor of this legislation proves the contention made by Secretary Denby and Secretary Fall that present legislation authorizes exactly what was done. If these laws do not authorize the sort of leases that were made, then there is no reason for new legislation. The only apparent irregularity was in connection with the loan by Mr. Doheny to Secretary Fall. Even this is not yet shown to be corrupt. But even if it were a corrupt transaction it was disclosed many months ago and is the only feature that can be construed as reflecting upon the good faith of the leases. The public will remember that strenuous efforts were made to show that prominent officials had been given advance information as to the oil leases by means of which information they were able to speculate in Sinclair oil stock and thus make enormous fortunes. The Walsh Committee is compelled to admit that there was no valid evidence in support of that charge. The Committee also refuses to give its sanction to the voluminous and highly sensational testimony, of a hearsay nature, to the effect that the oil leases played a prominent part in the epublican National Convention of 1920. Nevertheless, the public was for months given a picture of widespread corruption in high official places. Because of the sensational character of testimony given by disreputable witnesses, the people of the country were induced to discredit the honesty of their officials and now, after public interest has subsided, little attention is given to the report of the Committee which shows that this distract was wholly unjustified. The Committee is compelled to admit that the legislation under which the leases were made was urgently recommended by Secretary Daniels dur any unemployment. The party is pledged to give to the farmer all necessary government assistance in organizing and establishing a system for the cooperative marketing of agricultural products. It promises to aid and simplify as well as the cheapening of our marketing and distributing machinery. It promises departmental help in diversified farming and if necessary, direct financial aid during the transition period of diversification. There is also a pledge to continuous and vigorous efforts to strengthen and broaden the export markets. In the matter of railroad rates, there is a declaration for a revision with a view to reduce the rates on agricultural products. Aid for good highways is urged. The new immigration law is indorsed. In the matter of prohibition, there is a declaration infavor of law enforcement. There is also a declaration that guilt is personal and a pledge to publish every individual found guilty of fraud against the Government. There is a declaration to extend exory aid, financial and otherwise, to the disabled veterans of the late war. There is a provision asking that the President be given power, in time of war, to draft every citizen of the United States, so that capital, labor and, in fact, every resource of the Naiton will do its part, share and share alike. This would mean elimination of the profiteer and the slacker during the periods of national strife. The World Court plan is indorsed, but there is a renewed announcement that the United States will have no participation in the League of Nations. The Republican party, through Temporary Chairman Burton, called attention to the fact that during the epublican administration taxes have been reduced; peace restored with Germany; the suffrage amendment ratified; millions of dollars have been spent on the disabled soldiers; the tariff has been revised so as to produce more revenue and lessen taxes; that there is a lack of unemployment; that good wages obtain; that more legislation has been enacted for the benefit o f the farmer than during any session of Congress for 50 years (even William Jennings Bryan has publicly admitted this fact); that peace in Europe has been aided by the Dawes Commission; that the Budget System, a epublican measure, in the first year o fits being, resulted in the reduction of $800,000,000 from the estimates submitted; that the enbli Because of the sensational character of testimony given by disreputable witnesses, the people of the country were induced to discredit the honesty o their officials and now, after public interest has subsided, little attention is given to the report of the Committee which shows hat this district was wholly unjustified. The Committee is compelled to admit that the legislation under which the leases were made was urgently recommended by Secretary Daniels during the Wilson Administration, and the legislation was signed by President Wilson. It is admitted that by reason of his failure to make leases Secretary Daniels permitted vast quantities of oil to be drained from the reserves through wells sunk on adjoining land. It is admitted that leases are still desirable, the only difference of opinion being as to the extent to which leases should be made and the manner of receiving bids. Thinking is a fine habit. Lots of men are now in the penitentiaries because they "didn't think."

The dominant note of the entire convention proceedings was as Mr. Burton voiced it, "the people—and all of the people — have confidence in Calvin Coolidge." MOUNTAIN AND MOUSE After all the maze of charges, the examination of an army of witnesses, the expenditure of an immense expense fund, and shameless efforts to connect innocent men with supposed scandals, the report of the Oil Investigating Committee recently filed in the Senate discloses no facts other than those which were developed early in the investigation. It is thus proven that prolongation of the investigation had no other effect han to create political thunder for the campaign. Senator Walsh, who acted as prosecutor for the Committee, recommends the enactment of laws to prohibit leases except for protection from drainage, to prohibit the exchange of NOTICE OF SALE PROPERTY BY TRUSTEE UNDER DEED OF TRUST WHEREAS, S.
