"What this country needs today is not protec tion foreign nations but defense against the ag gressive inllueuces of the power of money in the hands of a selfish and grasping few of its own citizens", thus speaks Senator W orks of California.

And Sousa, when he would compose that music which the whole world knows, fills up his pipe with good old "Tux" (name t'other brands, and he says, "Shucks I").
