'With in becoming limits one can not say more. Indeed, for the present many questions of - vast 1 Importance mast be hastily passed, reserving a fuller discussion to ' suitable . occasion as the campaign ad vance. .'- .-. . " -' I believe the budget system will effect a necessary. helpful reformation and reveal business methods to government business. :.-- I . believe federal departments should lie made more businesslike and send , back to productive effort thousands of 'federal employes, who are either dupli ' eating work or not essential at'alL I believe in the protective tariff policy ' and know we will be calling for its sav ' ing Americanism again. :' I believe in a great merchant marine , -I would have this republic the leading tnaratime nation of the world. ' I believe in a navy ample to protect , It and able to assure us dependable de fense. ' - - I believe in a small army, but the best In the world, with a mindfulness for pre paredness which will avoid the unutter able eost of our previous neglect. , I believe in our eminence In trad abroad, which the -government should aid in expanding, .both In revealing mar kets and speeding cargoes. I believe in establishing standards for Immigration, which are concerned with the future citizenship of the republic not with mere manpower in industry. I believe that every man who dons the garb of American citizenship and walks ' In the light of American opportunity must become an .American heart and oul. " -- - I believe In holding fast to every for vrard step in unshackling child labor and elevating conditions of woman's employ ment . ------- . I believe the federal government should tamp out lynching and, remove that tain from the fair name of America. I believe the federal government should give its effective aid in solving the prob lem of ample and becoming housing of , Its citizenship. I believe this government should make Its Liberty and Victory bonds worth all that its patriotic citizens paid in pur chasing them. ? '.. I believe the tar burdens Imposed for the war emergency must be revised -to the needs of peace and in the interest of equity in distribution of the burden. MEXICAlf POLICT "IHFIRM I believe the negro citizens of America should be guaranteed. the enjoyment of iall their rights; that they have earned ; the full measure of citizenship bestowed ; that their sacrifices In blood on the bat- tlefields of the republic have entitled them- to all of freedom and opportunity, - all of sympathy and aid that the Ameri can spirit of fairness - and Justice de mands. . - ' I believe there la an easy and open path to righteous relationship with Mexico. It has seemed to mo that our undeveloped, , uncertain and infirm policy has made ua culpable party to the governmental misfortunes In that land, pur relations " ought to be both friendly and syrapa- -thetic: we would like to acclaim a stable government there and offer a neighborly Thand- in pointing the way to greater progress. It will be simple to have a plain and! neighborly understanding, merely' an understanding about respect ing our borders, about protecting, the lives and possessions of American citi zens lawfully within the Mexican do minions. There must be that under standing, else there can be no recogni tion, and then the understanding must be faithfully kept. f Many of these declarations deserve a . fuller expression, with some suggestions of plans to emphasize the faith. Such expression will follow -in due time, I promise you I believe in law enforcement. If elect ed I -mean ta be a constitutional presi- ii.ni. iml It. is imoossible to ignore the constitution, unthinkable to evade the ' law,;, when our every commital is to or derly government. People ever will dif tmr shout the wisdom of the enactment of a law there is divided opinion about the eighteenth amendment and the laws enacted to make it operative but-there can be no difference or opinion zoom hnnnt law enforcement.

Modification or repeal is the ' right of a free people, whenever the de liberate and Intelligent public sentiment commands, but perversion and evasion . mark-the paths of the failure of gov- eminent itseii. . 1 PRAIWES SOLDIERS - Though not In any partisan sense, I must sneak of the services of the men and women who rallied to the colors of ' the fublic in the world war. America realizes and appreciates the services ren dered. the sacrifices made and the suf- frinrs- endured. There shall be no diS' tinction between those who knew the perils and glories of the battle front or the dangers of the sea and those who rnmrw M tn serve wnmn tn lines. . or those- who constituted the great re- ! serve of a grand army which awaited r. the call in camtis at home. All were brave, all were sacrificing. , all were sharers of those ideals which i sent our boys thrice-armed to war. Worthy sons and daughters, these, fit successors to those who christened our : banners in the immortal beginning. worthy - sons of those who saved the nninn and nationality when ff vil war i wiped the ambiguity from the constitu i tlon. ready sons of those who-drew the . sword for humanity s saxe the rirst time All IIIW WOTIU, in - : The 4.000.000 defenders on land and sea were worthy of the best traditions of " people never war-like in peace and never 1 pacifist in war. They commanded our : pride,- they have our gratitude, wnich 1 must have genuine expression. It Is not - only a duty. It is a privilege to see that the sacrifices made shall be requited, : and that those still suffering from cas ualties and disabilities shall -be. abund antly aided and restored to the highest capabilities of citizenship and its en joyment. The womanhood of America, always : its glory, its inspiration and the potent, uplifting force in its social and spiritual development, is about to be enfranchised. Insofar as congress can go, the fact is already accomplished. By party edict, by my recorded vote, by personal con- f viction I am committed to this measure of justice. It is my earnest hope, my sincere desire that the one needed state , vote be quickly recorded in the affirma tion of the right of equal suffrage and that the vote of every citizen shall be , cast and . counted in the approaching . election. " : Let- us not share the apprehensions of many men and women as to the danger ' of this momentous extension of the .fran chise. "Women have never been without Influence in our political life. Enfranch isement will bring to the polls the votes Miller & Tracey -. - . ... , .. ... , Adult Caskets $30 to $1000 of citizens who have been born trpt our soil, or who have sought in faith and assurance the freedom and opportunities of our land. - It will bring the women educated in our schools, trained in our customs and habits of thought, and shar ers of our problems. It will bring the alert mind, the awakened conscience, the sure Intuition,' the abhorrence of tyranny or oppression, the wide and tender sym pathy that distinguish the women of America. Surely there can be no danger there. , PROMISES SIS' CERE SERTICE . And to the - great number of noble women who have opposed in conviction this tremendous change in -the ancient relation of the sexes aa applied to gov ernment. I venture to plead that they will accept the full responsibility of en larged citizenship and give - to the best In the republic ' their suffrage and sup port. r -y Much has been said of late about world ideals, but I prefer to think of the Ideal for America. .' I . like to think ' there Is something more than the patriotism and practical wisdom of the founding fathers. It is good to believe that maybe destiny held this new-word republic to be the supreme example of representative de mocracy and orderly liberty by which humanity is Inspired to higher achieve ment It is idle to think we have at tained perfection, but there is the satis fying knowledge that we hold orderly processes t for ; making ' our government reflect - the heart and. mind of the re public. Ours is not only a fortunate people but a very common-senslcal peo ple, with vision high but their feet on the earth, with belief in themselves and faith in God. JflTiether enemies threaten from wlthouTT or menaces, arise from within, there is some Indefinable voice saying, "Have confidence in the repub lic! America will go on I S Here is a temple of liberty no storms may shake ; here are the altars of free dom no passions shall destroy. It was American in' conception, American tn Its building, it shall be American in the ful filment. Sectional once, we are all Americans now, and we mean to be all Americans to all the world. : Mr. Chairman, members of the com mittee, my countrymen all: I would not be my natural self if I did not utter my consciousness of my limited ability to meet your fun expectations, or to realize the aspirations within my own - breast, but I will gladly? give all that is in me, all of heart, soul and mind and abiding love of country, to service in our com mon cause. I can only pray to the Om nipotent God that I may be as worthy in service as I know my self to be faithful in thought and purpose. One can not give more. Mindful of the vast responsibilities 1 must be frankly humble, but I have that confidence in the con sideration and support of all true Amer icans which makes me wholly unafraid. With an unalterable faith and in a hope ful spirit, with a hymn of service in my heart,! pledge fidelity to our . country and to God, and accept the nomination of the Republican party' for the presi dency of . the United States. - Ambassador Davis ; -Will Leave Britain -For U.S. on Aug. 18 Washington.
