Republicans'
State Campaign
On To-morrow
Plane for Drive Completed
and Judge Miller Will
Be Notified of Nomina?
tion Wednesday Night
1 ' m
Committee to Direct All
Gubernatorial Candidate to
Let the Assembly Deal
With Socialists9 Cases
Representative Bertrand H. Snel? of
Potsdam,' chairman of the Republican
State Executive Committee, said last
night that the state campaign would
open to-morrow at state committee
headquarters. Chairman George A.
Glynn will have general charge. Af?
ter Wednesday, the speaking dates for
Judge Nathan L. Miller, candidate for
Governor, and Senator James W. Wads
worth jr. will be made by the com?
mittee.
Judge Miller is to be notified of his
nomination at his home in Syracuse on
Wednesday nipht. The otner nominees
on the state ticket also will be present.
The formal speech of notification will
be made by Charles L. Rushes. Mrs.
Florence E. S. Knapp, of Syracuse, also
will speak. After the notification Judge
Miller will depart for Potsdam and will
speak Thurslay at the Potsdam fair.
When Judge Miller was asked about
the probable fate of the newly elected
Socialist Assemblymen, he said:
"That ?3 a matter for the members of
the Assembly to settle. I haven't any
doubt that ?iey will act in accordance
i with their consciences. Naturally, I
have my own views on the subject,
which I have not hesitated to express to
personal friends, but I am not interfer
f ing with the Assembly in any way
whatever."
> "It may be unfair," said State Chair?
man Glynn, when asked, about the So?
cialist Assemblymen, "but I believe the
majority of the Republicans do not dis?
sociate socialism from what hap?
pened in Wall Street on Thursday, pos?
sibly at the instigation of the Red wing
of the party. The state organization
; as such will not take any position oni
the subject. The expulsion of the So-'
cialists was not done by a party vote.
In fact, the movement against them
was noflpartisan."

Fire Scares Guests at Inn
? STAMFORD, Conn., Sept. 18.?One
hundred and fifty guests at the Green
i wich Inn, a summer hotel at South
. Heach, Conn., engaged in a wild scram
: ble this afternoon to ?ret their finery
out of the buildinc after an alarm of
fire had been sounded.
The fire, as far as the inn was con?
cerned, was confined to a few shingles
at the edge of the roof. A garage,
three blocks away, was burning, and
panic-stricken guests of the Green?
wich Inn feared that the inn was
doomed.
The garage was on the estate of
Edward J.- Lucas. It was destroyed.
Two cottages, owned by Louis Vrofut,
and a cottage on the Greenwich Inn
premises, owned by Arthur J. Billin,
were damaged. The total loss was
estimated at $25,000.
The fire on the roof of the inn was
caused by brands which were blown
from the burning garage.
Meet to Promote Leogue
Active promotion of a League of
Nations was considered at a meeting
yesterday of the League to Enforce
Peace, held at the City Club, 55 West
Forty-fourth Street. The meeting was
not open to the public and about half
of the executive committee of the"or?
ganization attended.
Dr. A. A. Lowell, president of Har?
vard University, was chairman, and
others present were: ,
Herbert Hoover, Isaac Allman, Mrs. .
Carrie Chapman Catt, George W. Wick

traditions of the nation. Never in our
history had an opposition party so
completely subordinated all partisan
differences to the support of the Ad?
ministration. It was to the President,
the Commander in Chief, the trustee
of the executive authority of? the na?
tion, and not to the leader of the Dem?
ocratic party, that this support was
given, and regardless of party, every
resource of talent, of wealth, of skill,
of industry, the flower of the nation's
manhood, and the sacrifice of men and
women everywhere in all spheres of
effort were at his command. In truth,
it was the Republican leaders, insist?
ent in their demand for speed and effi?
ciency in military effort, who in larg?
est measure furnished the driving
power behind an Administration which
too long had fatuously cherished a
false security and too long had been
benumbed by inactivity and indiffer?
ence to the vindication of American
rights.
Democratic Assurances Delusive
"Four years ago the Republicans de?
manded adequate preparedness, and
the protection of American lives and
property; that our rights as a nation
should not only be asserted on paper
but should be promptly and fearlessly
maintained. This constant insistence
on the fundamental demands of Amer?
ican honor the Democratic leaders
made the pretext for the sounding of
an alarm that Republican success
meant war.
"The Democratic convention rocked
with ecstasy as its orator portrayed the
plight of war-torn Europe and the
peace and comfort of American fire?
sides which had been maintained by
the pride that could not'stomach fight?
ing. Billboards on every hand depict?
ed the European battle scene and the |
happy American family free from the j
touch of war. Thus, despite the por- i
tent of the hour, the Democratic party
mot the essential demand for the
maintenance of American rights with
seductive and delusive assurances, and
the cry, 'He kept us out of war,' won
success for the Administration and
paradoxically secured its opportunity
to conduct our part in the greatest
war of history. The election was fol?
lowed by a solemn declaration of pol?
icy which fitted the exigencies of the
campaign. There must be 'Peace with?
out victory,' an announcement as ill
advised as has been the recent conduct
of our foreign affairs which has left us
victory without peace.
Shocking State of Unpreparcdncss
"I review this situation briefly be?
cause it discloses responsibility for
subsequent difficulties. I do not at
all detract from the great endeavor
put forth by the Administration. But
it was the endeavor of one suddenly
aroused from lethargy and sadly bewil?
dered as he gathers his strength. We
were found in a shocking state of un
preparedness. I do not refer to the
later extraordinary demands, which
could not have been anticipated, but
to that reasonable measure of pre?
paredness which prudence demanded
and which would have greatly facili?
tated the subsequent effort. Of course,
some things had been done, but you
could not make preparedness march to
the tune o'f 'He kept us out of war'
and 'Peace without victory.'
"Domestically, the first issue is econ?
omy and reduction of taxation. How
are we to achieve this? Assuredly, we
must have improvement in method.
Proper budget making is essential, but
method is not enough. The Republi?
cans in Congress have made an excel?
lent beginning in cutting upward of
two billions out of the departmental
estimates. It is a sound instinct of the
people at this time to demand a change
in administration. We need the prun?
ing knife used by those who take of?
fice intent upon using it.
End Reign of Extravagance
"It is idle to trust those who have
been in power during the war period,
with its lavash outlays, its indifference
to expense, its reckoning in billions as
we formerly reckoned in millions, with
this duty of economy and retrenchment.
The clearest call of the day is to put
out the party which is responsible for
this extravagance and install the party
pledged to economy, competent to se?
cure economy by Us respect for busi?
ness organization, and with every rea?
son in party ambition to make good its
promise.
"The Administration should not es?
cape rebuke for its flagrant disregard
of the fundamental principles of lib?
erty. It has talked much of democracy
and liberty, but these have been be?
trayed in its owp house. We have been
amazed at the abuses scathingly de?
nounced by the Federal Court in Bos?
ton. We have burned with shame and
indignation as we have read the report
of the Committee of Twelve, including
distinguished deans of law schools and
> eminent professors of law, charging
and specifying atrocities committed by
an American government on American
soil in the course of pretended vindi?
cation of American institutions by the
Depaitment af Justice.
"How swiftly autocratic pretensions
run to tyranny! No one can be
trusted to save democracy by methods
which displace liberty ?nd due process
in favor of administrativa caprice. Do
we believe that we are facing troublous
times? Then let it be known that we
shall always secure ourselves against
violence and that those who threaten
the forcible? overthrow of government
will swiftly meet the entire force of
government for the immediate repres?
siv of every such effort. But let it
u4uo be known, as our surest protec?
tion, that with calmness tyid sanity we
propose to maintain the guaranties of
free speech, free assembly and the
right of representation, and that no
one, however poorr friendless or ac?
cused, shall be deprived of liberty with?
out due process of law.
Must Cease War Powers
"When Congress conferred extraor?
dinary authority upo:? me President
in order to secure the unity of action
essential to the war enterprise it was,
of course, assumed that there would
always be a sound and adequate rea?
son in relation to the actual conduct of
war when this authority was used.
There is no demand for the impossible.
Manifestly, a reasonable time had to
be allowed for the winding up of war
undertakings. But winding up is one
thing; the stretch of authority to con?
trol actual peace conditions is quite
another. It is no answer to say that
our economic conditions are the after?
math of the war. When shall we es?
cape the direct influences of the war?
Probably not for a generation. If Ex?
ecutive autocracy is to be correspond?
ingly continued, we may as well bid
goodby to the Republic. The war pow?
ers were for the conduct of war, not
for peace. It was the plain duty of th?
Executive when actual peace was re?
stored to relinquish the exercise oi
war power. If we are to respect oui
fundamental law, and check tendencies
which constitute a grave menace to oui
liberties, we must end war poweri
without delay.
"We recall the surprise and justifi?e
resentment which wat, evoked by th(
Presidential demand for a partisai
victory at the elections of 1918. Thi;
was the extraordinary return for thi
zeal and sacrifices of Republicans i?
support of the Administration in th<
conduet of the war. But it would hav<
been fitting and manifestly wise t
avoid opportunity for partisan advan

it would have been in accord wit

Duty to Oppose Ratification
"Opinions have differed as to the w

sociation of nations in connection wi
the making of the treaty, so imports
was it that the latter should be acco
plished with the utmost speed. Bu"
is clear that, if this attempt, were ma

ervations obviating the most seri

attack upon the performance of t
duty by Senators, as in some way in?
volving a breach of national faith, was
both puerile and unworthy. It was
well answered by Lord Grey when he
said: 'The Senate, by the American
Constitution, is an Independent body,
an independent element in the treaty
making power. Its refusal to ratify
the treaty cannot expose either itself
or the country to a charge of bad faith
or of repudiation.'
Must Safeguard Monroe Doctrine
"It is indeed an amazing thing that
it should have been necessary to de
mnnd an amendment in order that the
Monroe Doctrine should be safeguarded '?
and that our representatives should
have proposed even n draft covenant !
which sent that doctrine to the scrap- I
heap. I understand that the Presi?
dent's legal advisers had informed him
that 'such an agreement would destroy
the Monroe Doctrine.' It was only
when it became apparent that Ameri?
can opinion would not tolerate this re?
versal of established policy that
amendment was favored by the
President.
"But the Monroe ?octrine is not a
'regional understanding.' It does not
belong in the category of diplomatic
'understandings,' regional or other?
wise. It is a distinctively national pol?
icy deemed essential to our national se?
curity. It is difficult to imagine Amer?
ican representatives consenting to such
n misdescription. If it was intended
to reserve the Monroe Doctrine unlm
paired, why not say so? Why slns>uld
American representatives have fa?ted
to secure clear and adequate provision
upon this point? Certainly, it is far
from accurate to say that the amend?
ments proposed by Republicans for this
purpose were incorporated in the
Covenant.
Justiciable Questions
"Mucrl appears to be made of the in?
troduction in Article XIII of a clause
defining disputes suitable for arbi?
tration. I understand that Gov?
ernor Cox refers to this clause when
it is said that Mr. Root's exact words
were introduced. But this clause did
not at all meet Mr. Root's point.
"It was because of this reactionary
proposal, which rave the disposition of
justiciable questions to politicians,
guided by considerations of expediency,
instead of confiding them to a perma?
nent court with juristic standards so
as to secure international justice ac?
cording to international law, that Mr.
Root proposed to put teeth into the
system provided by the Hague conven?
tions by making the arbitration of jus?
ticiable questions obligatory under the
system established by The Hague con?
ference, or before the proposed Court
of Arbitral Justice, or, if the parties
preferred in a particular case, before
some specially constituted tribunal and
by defining justiciable questions."
At this point Judge Hughes quoted
Mr. Root's proposed amendment con?
cerning justiciable matters, asserting
that the Wilson covenant did nothing
for the ?establishment and strength?
ening of a system of arbitration, and
then, recurring to Governor Cox's con?
tention that Mr. Root's views had been
adopted, he said:
Covenant Requires Amendment
"It is inaccurate and grossly mis?
leading to say that the amendment was
accepted in substance. It was not. The
i-igttificance of this refusal to accept it
is that our representatives at the peace
conference apparently did not desire
to base their plan for peace upon the
justice of international law, judicially
expounded, bui sought to build on the
sands of diplomacy and expediency.
"Mr. Root has been doing a great in?
ternational service in his recent work
in the development of a plan for an
international court, but the provisions
of the covenant require amendment.
"But there is a far more serious and
indeed a fatal objection to the cove?
nant, if there are not adequate amend?
ments or reservations. That is what
Mr. Root has called the. 'incredible
mistake' of Article X. Nothing has
been done to change that. This article
has been described as 'the heart of the
co\enant.' If it is, the covenant has
a bad heart. Article X is really the
vice of the covenant. Why there should
have been such tenacious insistence
upon it must remain a mystery, unless
it can be said to be due. to pride of
authorship. Let us reread this article:
" 'The members of the league under?
take to respect and preserve as against
external aggression the territorial integ?
rity and existing political independence
of all members of the league. In case
of any such aggression or in case of any
threat or danger of such aggression the
council shall advise upon the means by
which this obligation shall be fulfilled.'
Obligation on Signatories
"That this article imposes an obliga?
tion on the signatories is perfectly clear.
The obligation is immediate; the cove?
nant itself creates it; it awaits no ac?
tion of the league to impose it. The
members of the league 'undertake" to
respect and preserve, etc. It is ,of no
avail to call the obligation a moral one,
first, because a moral obligation, as I
believe' the President has ?aid, is til)
highest form of obligation; and, second,
because If, as to the United States, such
an undertaking has validity, it would
create just as legal and just as binding
an obligation as any obligation under-in?
ternational law, or any treaty obliga?
tion, can be. The second sentence of
the article as to the duty of the council
to 'advise upon the means by which
this obligation shall be fulfilled' does
not alter the fact that the first sen?
tence is an explicit undertaking and
creates a present obligation. The sec?
ond sentence recognizes an existing ob?
ligation and deals only with the means
of fulfillment.
Bound to Go to War
"In case of future conflict, whatever
our opinion of the merits, and however
removed it may be from any interese
of ours, we are Sound to go to war, if
necessary, in order to preserve as
against external aggression the terri?
torial possessions of a member of the
league. If any one has any doubt on ?
this point it should be removed by the
emphatic statement of Mr. Root; no
one is more competent to construe the
provision. He says: 'If that stipula?
tion means anything and ia not mere i
sham and false pretense, i^ will, if j
ratified, bind the United States when |
occasion arises to defend every mem
ber of the league by armed force
against external aggression. It will j
bind the United States to do that, no |
matter what our people at the time
think about the right and wrong of the
controversy or about the wisdom or
folly of entering upon it. It will re?
quire the United States to fight on oc?
casion for all these dispositions of ter?
ritory made by the Supreme Council
in Paris under the influence of secret
treaties and bitter animosities and
political expediencies?dispositions of
territory, many of which are doubtful
and some of which are clearly wrong."
"But it is insisted that under our QB>n
stitution Congress alone can declire
war. If, however, the engagement of
Article X is within the treaty-making
power, and the treaty were made with?
out reservation on this point, then the
nation would be bound by the engage?
ment to all the other contracting pow?
ers, and it would be its duty to use i
the proper organs of government to ac?
complish whatever is necessary to make
good the engagement. If the Executive
should hold this view, he might at
once use the forces at his command
without waiting for Congress and thus
plunge us into actual war. If we make
a treaty promising money it is the
duty of the nation to pay, and this is
none the less a national obligation be?
cause Congress can alone appropriate
the money. If it be assumed that the
treaty-making power can bind us by
Article X, then it would be our inter?
natonal duty to see that Congress de?
clares war or does anything else that
may be required to perform our under?
taking.
"Article X is a mischief-maker. It
belongs to the catogory of alliances to
make war and Is opposed to American
principle. It will serve to create dis?
putes and r.ot to heal them. For our?
selves we must clearly reserve the right
to decide in the light of the facts as
they arise in the future, and unem?
barrassed by any preexisting contrac?
tual obligation, whether we shall de?
fend the territorial Integrity of one
nation against aggression by another
and whether or not we shall resort to
arms. If the situation presented at
any future time is of such a character
as to create a sense of duty on our
part, and we feel that we should go
to war to preserve the territorial in?
tegrity or independence of another
state, or in the interest of liberty and
civilization, then we would respond
although there were no Article X. Why
not leave the future to conference and
decision in the light of events?
"The President could readily have
secured assent to an association or
League of Nations organized on a proper
basis, without objectional commit?
ments. He could easily have obtained
'the ratification of the treaty with the
covenant had be been willing to accept
adequate reservations necessary for our
protection. But he wanted 'his own
way?an attitude to be excused had it
been the right way, but it was the
wrong way. The candidate of the Dem?
ocratic party has chosen, and is bound,
to travel in the same wrong path. The
serious mistake that has been made can
be rectified under different leadership.
"What are the proper objects of an as?
sociation or league of independent na?
tions established to promote peace?
These may be said to be three:
"First, provision for the determina?
tion by a judicial tribunal of all jus?
ticiable questions which arise between
nations, and the exposition and devel?
opment of international law which
makes possible the reign of justice ac?
cording to established principles of
right.
"Then there should be the ma
chlnery of conciliation to deal with
questions which ate the proper subject
of consideration and are not justici?
able; investigation and recommenda?
tion, the securing of opportunity for
'cooling off' and for the influence of
friendly advice and sound reason. The
proposed covenant contains valuable
provisions to this end.
"Then there remains the field for in?
ternational cooperation, as it may from
time to time be found advisable, a field
constantly widening with the demand?
of intimate intercourse and common in?
t?r?ts, which may be fostered without
imperiling any nation'? security or in?
dependence. To secure these ends
there should be organization for con?
ference, thus securing continuity and
appropriate investigations pending
meetings, and the machinery for the
international cooperation which may
be undertaken.
Fortunate in Harding'? Experience
"We are fortunate in the temper and
experience of our candidate. Able, hon?
orable and sincere, with broad knowl?
edge of-the country, its history, its needs
and the manifold interests of our peo?
ple; especially familiar with the prob?
lems of Federal administration, devoted
to the principles of constitutional gov?
ernment, solicitous for rational progress;
patient, unruffled and most desirous to
take counsel and to form opinion delib?
erately after full knowledge; hating sham
and the tricks of demagogy, the Repub?
lican candidate invites the confidence of
the country, and we shall meet the con?
tingencies of a troublous time with the
assurance of a safe guidance under the
Presidency of Warren G. Harding.
"The Republican party has been the
party of achievement and advance, not
of delusions and false visions, and be?
cause we propose to meet the demands
of the future we are intent upon a re?
turn to the best traditions of our di?
plomacy and to the high standards of
efficient administration which are iden?
tified with the Republican leadership of
Hay, Root and Taft, of McKinley and
Roosevelt.
"Maina, with an unmistakable em?
phasis, points to the verdict of the coun?
try. The people demand a change, and
with fresh courage we shall resume the
path of well Ordered government, of
prosperity and progress."
Stokes Predicts Big Victory
State Chairman E. C. Stokes pre?
sided at the meeting and in opening
the convention declared that New Jer?
sey will equal the result in Maine.
Complimenting the women workers who
have enrolled under the Republican
banner, Stokes said "nothing is im?
portable" with such splendid cooper?
ation as that exhibited among the
women and men co-workers in the Re?
publican ranks.
Various county chairmen of the state
were called upon to make reports of
the progress of the campaign. Mrs.
Lillian F. Feickert, of Plainfield, vice
chairman of the Republican State Com?
mittee, reported that before the pri?
maries of September 28 there will be
a complete woman's organization in
every county.
Seated on the platform with Jus?

Mr. Hughes arrived here at 11:15
o'clock this morning and was met at
th? Pennsylvania Clinton Street sta?
tion by Chairman Stokes. It had been
previously arranged to have Chairman
Stokes alone meet Mr. Hughes, to
avoid a demonstration and to elimi?
nate the escort of a reception com?
mittee.
After the usual greetings Mr. Hughes
wa staken by automobile to the Tren?

Think what folly it is to keep corns, to
pare or pad them, or to use the old harsh
treatments.
Here is the new-day way, gentle, sure
and scientific. It was created by a noted
chemist in this world-famed laboratory.
It is ending millions of corns by a touch.
The relief is quick, and it ends them
completely.
Try it tonight. Corns are utterly need?
less, and this is the time to prove it

The Oriental Store*
?. ? ' '? -? ? ?? ?*
Fifth Avenue and 39th Street
One of the largest and most desirable assort
ments ever offered to our discriminating patrons
Vantine's is the One store in this country equal to the
task of supplying Oriental-Silks in all their purity, va?
riety and indefinable color effects.
These hand-loom Silks, collected with great care
from China and Japan, have the character and individu?
ality of the weaver as distinguishable as the brush
marks on the pictures of a great artist.
There is nothing mechanical about them?every
thread means something, and after being made up the
possessor has something absolutely different and dis?
tinctively beautiful.
These rich Oriental Silks are strangers to the abuses
and cheapening processes of modern times?real silk,
soft, pliable, durable, giving a never-ending pleasure
to the eye and the touch.
As for colors, there are those really wonderful deep
oranges and yellows, the jades, the fascinating tur?
quoise blues, strawberry, pale pinks, and the innumer?
able half-tones known only to the Chinese dyers.
Trie collection this year is very unusual even for
Vantine's, so that anything you may want in Oriental
Silks can be found here.
