They allow themselves to be guided by family tradition in their every thought and action. The principal difficulty facing the' introduction of modern improvements into China is the universal ob--jection: "This is not as our fathers did." Imagine saying that we did not want electricity be cause our forefathers were satisfied with candles. Though we never went as far as the Chinese, our conservatism in the past often went to considerable lengths. Think of the telephone, of the motor car. How much encouragement did they get at first?

He will speak tonight In Scranton and then will go to New ark, N. J., before turning west for a swing that Is expected to take him to the Pacific coast. If elected, the senator declared, In his address here, last night, he will devote the first eighteen months of his term to "house cleaning" and the) remainder to "constructive" efforts. VI pro pose," he said, " not only to re novate the executive departments but also to wipe off the statute books the reactionary laws which are used as the instruments of exploitation and oppression. Far reaching beneficial results can be secured without the support ot a partisan majority In congress.' The independent candidate promised to call a special session of congress next March In the event he is then in the White House, to enact emergency farm legislation and the llowell-Bark-ley bill would set up a new meth od of adjusting disputes between railroad employers and workers, to revise or repeal the transporta tion act of 1920 and of the Kord ney-McCumber tariff law and to repeal the soldiers' bonus law en acted at the last session of con gress, substituting legislation "to provide genuine adjusted com pensation." for world war veter ans. He said he also would seek to brine about a revision of postal salaries and pensions of civil and Spanish war veterans, to conform to the increased cost of living."

(Associated Press Leased vvtre.) ALItANY, N. Y., Oct. 7. Driv ing further north and west into New York state from Albany to I'tica tor a noon-day address, and thence to Syracuse lor an evening meeting, John W. Davis continued today his attacks against the re publican party and its record during the Harding and Coulidge administrations and his appeal for support of the voters for tne dem ocratic national candidate state tickets in the November elec tions. At the same time, Mr. Da vis, speuking aa the democratic presidential nominee reiterated his opposition to the administra tions foreign policy, charged that the navy has deterioted in ef ficieny below the 6-6-3 ration fix ed by the Washington armament conference and reviewed other Bubjects touched upon In his ad dress here last night, in his ref erence to the foreign pulley ques tions, Mr. Davis said last night ho could see only two courses open to this country, one was to arm the nation to the point where it need not fear aggression even from the united strength of other powers and the second was to meet all other powers In confer ence and build up understandings which would make future aggres sion Impossible. He pointed out the ret usul of the Washington government to attend the Ueneva ;conference called by the League of Nations to consider questions of abolishing war of arbitration of reduction in armaments and the 1 coditlcation of international law. .,.. There is neither safety nor honor in a mere policy of drift.' lr hm'lH oniit "Kurh R ItnlicV . ,levitably to a situation lhat not oniy deprives us of the j Dower t0 maKe u pour minds but also the chance to make our will t effective when our minds are aduD The country bus a right to know whether we have a for eign policy and if so, wbat that policy Is." In reiteration of his charges ot corruption in public office during the last three and a half years, Mr. Davis declared that the re publican party cannot cover its failure to perform its past prom ises by making new promises for the future. "The worst crop failure this country ever saw,' he suld, "is the failure In the crop ot republican performance compared with the terms of hatred and punishment, but in accordance with the more generous terms of the armistice," and the exertion of the influence of the United Stats, "to outlaw war, to abolish conscription, to drastically reduce air, land, naval armament, and to guarantee rel erendunis on peace and war." Reverting to the world war the senator sit Id: "The great war which began ten years ago is now generally admitted to have been an luiper - lallstlc war, born of the grc.-d of financiers, exploiters of torelju lands, imperialists who conquered defenseless people In order to pro tect their usurious loans and de structive concessions. They made war on foreign peoplo as they profiteered and made war on the liberties of the people at home. They used diplomacy, the foreign offices, battleships and thu coun try's youth, to promote and to protect their Imperialistic posses sions, and In tlmii brought the the whole world to the cataclysm which rnnned ten million of its rnnth In he slain on the field of battle and 20.0'M'.0"i more to be, the same Norma of the early se invnlldaled by wounds and dis-jquences of the story.

Another question to be settled at the elections, Mr. Davis said that of rule ot privilege as against the rulo of equality. "Of all the victories which priv ilege ever won In congress," he sain In this connection none was so sweeping as the present in iquitous Fordney-.Met'umber tar iff. Its rates were written by" the very men who hoped to profit from them. "Willi much tribulation and ag ony of spirit, an investigation has been completed for the rates ot duly ou sugar. The Hordney-Mc-Cumber bill fixed the highest rales in 34 years. The result was a tax upon American people of $225,000,000 a year, $100,000. 000 of which went into the hands of the BUgar Interests. What It meant to them Is Illustrated by the fact that the great western sugar rompany earned for the year ending February 29, 1924, according to Its own figures, a net profit ot $12,000,(100 on a capital iae.tlon of $30, 000,000. In No vember, 1922, the tariff commis sion began In Investigation ot this schedule. On the 31st of last July It laid Its report on the president's table, recommending a reduction. Sixty days have gone by without action. "There Is no one who does not favor reduction in the burdens of taxation. Every energy should be bent to economy in government and the lessening of demnnd It makes on the time, the labor and the savings of the men and women of the country." Mr. Davis favored lower Income taxes and reduction of "their taxes" as rapidly as possible. (let your core knives and husk ing plus at Churchill Hdw. Co. o AMI.
