NATIONAL DEFENSE TEST The primary purpose of the Defense Test set for September 12, 1924 is to enable the citizens of this country to see for themselves and to understand the initial steps necessary to muster our force for national defense under the provisions of the Act of June 4, 1920, which provides: "The organized peace establishment including the Regular Army, the National Guard and the Organized Reserves shall include all those Divisions in the event of a national emergency declared by Congress." This act creates the Army of the United States, consisting of the Regular Army, National Guard and Organized Reserves, the first two constituting our first echelon of defense and the latter our second line of which our main dependence must rest in case we become involved in an emergency of any magnitude. The act further provides that it shall be the duty of the War Department: "To prepare plans for national defense and the use of the military forces for that purpose, and for the mobilization of the manhood of the nation and its material resources in an emergency. Under this provision the War Department has prepared plans and, with the approval of the President, has designated September 12, 1924, the sixth anniversary of the battle of St. Mihiel, as Defense Test Day, on which day it is intended to demonstrate and explain these plans and to subject the underlying principles thereof to analysis and test. In the World War, after enormous expenditures and serious loss of time masses of untrained individuals were concentrated in a few centers, distant from home ties and associations intended that these state and local committees shall represent the state and local agencies which would be used in any emergency in the procurement of manpower under either a voluntary or selective service system and their functions, in this respect, should be demonstrated in each community by filling the ranks of the organizations stationed in the vicinity, Regular Army, National Guard and Organized Reserves, the personnel for which may be secured through invitations to civilians of military age to serve FOR THAT DAY ONLY with specific units during their participation in parades or other patriotic demonstrations. In order that the importance of the functions of the mobilization committee may receive full recognition as representing state and local authority, it is desired that they be given charge of all arrangements for assemblages and ceremonies incident to the occasion. They should, however, co-operate fully with, and secure the assistance of, veteran, patriotic, welfare, labor, business and other civic organizations. The general plans for the Defense Test and the ideas of the military will be presented to the committees in the form of suggestions and recommendations only. The following is given as a suggestion to aid in consideration of features which may be covered in local programs, it being realized that the programs will necessarily vary in conformity with local conditions: (a) Assembly and parade of military and other organizations. (b) Prayer for our national welfare. (c) Patriotic music. (d) An address or addresses to cover appropriate subjects such as "Appreciation for the assembled defenders" explanation of the "To provide for he had taken over from his lamented wife whose great spirit he could be no perceptible of what was going on." Tact and sound judge required to the utmost must be cleansed, but orderly, lawful proceeding lute purpose that justifies Otherwise the street power of the government be vindicated. Its stability must be when even its topmost found wanting. The attorney general arm of the government under violent criticism cific evidence against been adduced.

The house cleaning prosecutions are undertaken in that efficient manner that insists and faith that the riots And on the faith and a people rests the state environment. In personal character for meeting moment President Coolidge oest place among them has designated September 12, 1924, the sixth anniversary of the battle of St. Mihiel, as Defense Test Day, on which day it is intended to demonstrate and explain these plans and to subject the underlying principles thereof to analysis and test. In the World War, after enormous expenditures and serious loss of time masses of untrained individuals were concentrated in a few centers, distant from home ties and associations where their training was conducted under the greatest difficulties. Profiting by these experiences the plan today contemplates skeleton units, partially trained in advance, which can be concentrated locally when necessary. Units of the Regular Army and National Guard, which constitute our first line of defense, must be ready to act without delay, and their actual preparation should consist only in recruiting them to full strength and arming, equipping and completing the training of the additional personnel needed for this purpose. Behind this first line we have the great body of reserves, which must constitute the bulk of our defense force. Units of this force have been allocated to sections of the country according to population, and the Defense Test will be a trial of their knowledge of the duties which will automatically devolve upon them to recruit, shelter, supply, equip, train and otherwise care for their respective organizations. It is hoped by the Defense Test to impress the individual officer and soldier with his particular functions if a crisis comes. Local mobilization, a special feature of the new mobilization plans, will be emphasized and tried out by this test. The main object of the demonstration, however, is to represent the mobilization requirements of our national defense policy and show the dependency of the units on the community to which allocated and the contribution in aid of defense that could be expected from each community in the event of a national emergency. It is vitally necessary to the success of our national defense plans that they should be known and understood in advance by our people. These plans provide for individual and community co-operation and the exercise of decentralized authority by so many elements — National, State, Municipal, and private — that it is desirable to portray the functions of each of those tion to aid in consideration of features which may be covered in local programs, it being realized that the programs will necessarily vary in conformity with local conditions: (a) Assembly and parade of military and other organizations. (b) Prayer for our national welfare. (c) Patriotic music. (d) An address or addresses to cover appropriate subjects such as "Appeciation for the assembled defenders," explanation of the "To provide for the common denfense," feature in the Preamble of the Constitution, the general principles of the National Defense Act and the mobilization plans prepared under the act with special reference to the detailed plans for mobilization in that community, including shelter, supply, training, and sanitary arrangements that would be necessary. (e) Organized recreation and amusement. The success of the demonstration in each state and community will depend largely upon the interest, support and co-operation on the part of the representatives of the state government, upon officials and civic organizations. STABILITY IN GOVERNMENT Stability in government is the imperative need of a topsy turvy world emerging from the violent reactions of the war. Only in stabilized conditions can progress successfully go forward. Instability means backward movement of civilization, in which accomplishments of generations are wrecked in a day. If stability is not maintained in America, anchorage is gone for the white race. Asia has become arrogant since Europe has plunged in helpfulness. Could the reds of Russia also have inaugurated an upheaval in this country, as they hoped and tried to do, the upset of the white world would have been achieved. The steady hand is needed at Washington, Courageous adherence to the fundamental principles of the Republic is required. The man who makes his every act square with those principles, regardless of political consequences, heedless of the threats of organized minorities, ready to sacrifice personal advantage, possesses the qualities of leadership that is the demand of the times. Episodes in American life The house cleaning prosecutions are under done in that efficient manner that inspires faith that the rite And on the faith are a people rests the statement. In personal character for meeting moment President Coolidge est place among the ures in the world o today. There is nothing Calvin Coolidge. DEVELOPMENTS Senator Ed. P. Sample In Eleventh The past week has some interesting campaign of Senate for the Republican congressman in the Election District, which Diego, Imperial; Or San Bernardino, Inyo ties the largest district in the United States from the Mexican border of San Francisco. Senator Sample has his base of operation exceptionally popular count of the fact that ploned many Rivers in the state legislature Southern California which he sponsored legislation over the protests of Sacramento. The bid on account of a attorney general that instituted. Sample of the important staff advanced by Riverside state legislature similar state senator, including to do with the low university of California station, the propriaion for the appropriations Blythe highway. In Orange County has, during the past boa, Newport, Oran ton Santa Ana and greatest strength is The "Defense Test" should illustrate to citizens and communities the initial processes required for national defense. It is designed to make plain how the government plans to utilize and combine community units and energies so as to obtain maximum orderly results in conformity with the thoroughly democratic character of our national defense policy. It is planned that the observance of the occasion shall be held in each city, town or other community in the United States. The event, in addition to providing instruction for the personnel in the military service, will also be an opportunity for patriotic assemblages, parades of local units, Army state Guards, constabulary, civic and war veteran societies, Reserve Officer's training corps, schools, etc., accordingly, as may be developed in each locality. These demonstrations will be local in character and will not involve any expenditure of public funds. It is hoped that each citizen will learn his place and responsibility in the defense of the country should our security be threatened. The general plan for the Defense Test in each test contemplates a state mobilization committee to be appointed by the governor and local mobilization committees to be appointed by the governor directly or through his state committee. It is The steady hand is needed at Washington, Courageous adherence to the fundamental principles of the Republic is required. The man who makes his every act square with those principles, regardless of political consequences, heedless of the threats of organized minorities, ready to sacrifice personal advantage, possesses the qualities of leadership that is the demand of the times. President Coolidge already has thoroughly stood the test. First it has been demonstrated that the people have an absolute faith in his integrity, a conviction that the character of the nation's leader is as clean as a hound's tooth. For when the great oil scandal was revealed, wrecking reputations and creating a thick atmosphere of suspicion on every hand, the one shining figure against which not a word was directed was the occupant of the White House. Calvin Coolidge has so lived his life in rectitude, has been so upright in all his career and has earned such repute for absolute honesty, that not an untoward intimation was leveled at him. When the storm broke that shook official Washington to its foundations the personality of the President holding the faith and confidence of the people, gave to the government a stability without which consequences might have been grave. Had the finger of suspicion been pointed at the White House in that guly period, the United States government would have become an unsteady affair. No more trying time ever came for a President that when Coolidge was called upon to deal with members of his cabinet who were under attack. The situation was extremely delicate. for he had taken over the cabinet from his lamented predecessor in whose great spirit of kindliness there could be no perception or checking of what was going on. Tact and sound judgment were required to the utmost. The house must be cleansed, but there must be orderly, lawful procedure with resolute purpose that justice be done. Otherwise the strength and the power of the government would not be vindicated. Its stability must be demonstrated when even its topmost deeds were found wanting. The attorney general, prosecuting arm of the government was himself under violent criticism, although specific evidence against him had not been adduced. Confronted with the necessity of prosecuting powerful malefactors, President Coolidge immediately resolved upon engaging outside special counsel, so that confidence in the government might not suffer. The President's judgment was correct, for shortly thereafter the definite evidence developed, disqualifying the attorney general. In spirit of fair play and justice, and yet drastic when clearly established facts so warranted, Calvin Coolidge dealt as a master with one of the most difficult and dangerous episodes in American history. The house cleaning took place, prosecutions are under way, all of it done in that efficient just, convincing manner that inspired confidence and faith that the right will prevail. And on the faith and confidence of a people rests the stability of a government. In personal character and a capacity for meeting momentous situations, President Coolidge commands highest place among the governing figures. HUGHES SPEAKS FOR THE DAWES PLAN Secretary of State Hughes, in a speech at the Pilgrim's dinner in London last Monday evening and made public by the State department here, pledged American assistance in the rehabilitation of Europe if the powers will execute the Dawes plan in a reasonable way and in a manner to protect the investing public in the proposed international loan to Germany. Coming, as it does at the critical final stage of the negotiations between Great Britain and France over execution of the Dawes plan, Mr. Hughes' speech throws the weight of American influence in favor of a conservative program based on goodwill and economic recovery of all peoples suffering from burdens of the great war. Mr. Hughes pleads for prompt execution of the Dawes plan along reasonable lines and warns that failure would invite chaos. He does not go into details, but by his unqualified endorsement of the Dawes plan he makes it clear the allied powers must assume responsibility for putting Germany economically on her feet and that measures which jeopardize this basic feature of the program must be abandoned. Before reaching this part of his address Secretary Hughes outlined America's position with respect to European questions generally. He explains what America will not do and can not do. He announces indirectly but in unmistakable language, that the American people are opposed to accepting the commitments of the League of Nations. "Dominant American sentiment I am quite sure," Mr. Hughes said, "is opposed to commitments which would promise the action of Congress in uncontrollable ways." Comfort promotes genius just as Nobody is half as important as a little man in a little job who thinks he is a big man on a big job.

And on the faith and confidence of a people rests the stability of a government. In personal character and a capacity for meeting momentous situations, President Coolidge commands highest place among the governing figures in the world of statesmanship today. There is nothing unstable about Calvin Coolidge. DEVELOPMENTS IN CAMPAIGN Senator Ed. P. Sample Preves Popular In Eleventh District The past week has been productive of some interesting developments in the campaign of Senator Ed P. Sample for the Republican nomination for congressman in the Eleventh Congressional District, which comprises San Diego, Imperial, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Inyo and Mono counties the largest district geographically in the United States, extending from the Mexican border to a point north of San Francisco. Senator Sample has made Riverside his base of operations and here he is exceptionally popular, largely on account of the fact that he has championed many Riverside county issues in the state legislature, including the Southern California state fair bill, which he sponsored in the last session of the legislature and put through over the protests of Senator Inman of Sacramento. The bill was not signed on account of a report from the attorney general that it was unconstitutional. Sample has supported all of the important state legislation advanced by Riverside county in the state legislature since he become a state senator, including the bills having to do with the location of the University of California Citrus Experiment station, the location and appropriation for the farm school and the appropriations for the Mecca-Blythe highway. In Orange County, Senator Sample has, during the past week, visited Balboa, Newport, Orange, Olive, Fullerton Santa Ana and other towns. His greatest strength is in the city of Orlando. America's position with respect to European questions generally. He explains what America will not do and can not do. He announces indirectly but in unmistakable language, that the American people are opposed to accepting the commitments of the League of Nations. "Dominant American sentiment I am quite sure," Mr. Hughes said, "is opposed to commitments which would promise the action of Congress in unknown contingencies. Our people insist upon their liberty to form their decisions as contingencies arise." As the League of Nations is founded on the principle that all its members must commit themselves in advance to joint action in the interest of peace by military measures to enforce peace if necessary, the statement of Mr. Hughes serves definite notice that America's foreign policy no longer considers the question of America's joining the league. COURTESY ON HIGHWAYS Now is the time to be polite on the highway. Company has arrived. This is the suggestion to motorists being broadcasted by the Automobile Club of Southern California in an effort to show visiting motorists that Southern California not only has the greatest number of automobiles in the world in proportion to population but also is the home of the most courteous drivers. July has brought a high peak in motor tourists from everywhere. These stranger drivers not only are unfamiliar with the roads, but with local ordinances, so they are liable to become confused at times or need help. Nothing contributes so much to the pleasures of touring as courtesy, says the Auto Club, and if these tens of thousands of visiting motorits find themselves among a careful and courteous population, the charm of Southern California will be more impelling and the population increase will come in a greater ratio. The really Men's Industrial Conference which was scheduled to be held in Anaheim early in June, and which was delayed by the foot and mouth disease quarantines, will be held on December 6, at which time this city will be host to hundreds of State real estate men, according to an announcement made by Harrison Sidnam, County of Orange, State of California, and more particularly described follows, to wit: Commencing at the Southwest corner (SW¼) of the North-west One-quarter (NW¼) of Section Five (5) Township Five (5) South, Range Tea (107 West, S. B. B. & M., running thence East, 784.86 feet; thence North parallel to the West line of said Section 1110 feet; thence West parallel to the South line of said South-West One-quarter (SW¼) of the North-west One-quarter (NW¼) 784.86 feet; thence South along the West line of said Section 1110 feet to the point of beginning, and containing Twenty (20) acres.

July 10-17-24-31. state senator, including the bills having to do with the location of the University of California Citrus Experiment station, the location and appropriation for the farm school and the appropriations for the Mecca-Blythe highway. In Orange County, Senator Sample has, during the past week, visited Balboa, Newport, Orange, Olive, Fullerton Santa Ana and other towns. His greatest strength is in the city of Orange where the Sample club is under organization with W. W. Parsons as leader. Nels Edwards president of the chamber of commerce has endorsed his candidacy and the leading Republicans are for his candidacy. Senator Sample is thoroughly familiar with the Orange county harbor needs, having gone over the entire harbor in company with Joe Beek, who is chief clerk of the California senate and is an enthusiastic Sample supporter. He has the assurances of the candidate that he will be in a position to do more for the harbor project than any other candidate because of his loyalty to President Coolidge. Senator Sample announces that he will cover every community of the Eleventh district in a speaking campaign that will start in Riverside, Saturday, August 2, at the county court house and will cover every point from Bishop on the north to San Diego on the south; Seal Beach on the west to Blythe on the Colorado river. In these speeches will be covered every phase of the campaign, including the national issues. In this tour special attention will be given to San Bernardino county, the boyhood home of Congressman Swing. The average man thinks that the two sides to every question are my side and our side. The realty Men's Industrial Conference which was scheduled to be held in Anaheim early in June, and which was delayed by the foot and mouth disease quarantines, will be held on December 6, at which time this city will be host to hundreds of State real estate men, according to an announcement made by Harrison Sidnam, president of the local board. According to previous plans the Elks' clubhouse will be made the headquarters for the conference and representatives from boards from all parts of the state will gather and discuss the industrial situation in California. Probably nobody ever was a good loser at heart, but one who pretends to be has a fine chance of being a come-backer.
