A "FOUR SQUARE" PLATFORM Senator Hiram Johnson, a bitter-ender, declares that he will support Harding because the republican platform decrees the death of the peace treaty and kills the league of nations. He says: "The Republicans rejected the League of Nations with reservations because no reservations devised by the human mind could anticipate the contingencies which might arise in the future from an instrument' of such potential possibilities for harm. Former President Taft declares that he will support Harding because the republican platform means the success of the peace treaty and the League of Nations. He says: "The republican platform and the assured republican victory mean that the United States will enter the League with the Lodge reservations. It follows, of course, that these resolutions repudiate the vocifer- xSy; . oj. y!7& WJ. 1 Ei3dKi E TAhE r .rTfrffHUrTCOTTftAltffi MEMBER OP ASSOCIATED PRESS The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the use for publication of 11 news dispatches credited to It or not otherwise credited In this paper and also local news nubllshed herein. .

And that very afternoon, wnue ne was bringing the heavy jug from the spring, Johnnie Green thought of a fine plan for punishing the Bumble bee family. He liked his plan so well that he could hardly wait to try it; and he went back to tne nayneiu almost at a run, whereas he usually sauntered along so slawly that his father often had to speak to him somewhat sharply. But this time Farmer Green could not complain. Johnnie even brought the jug and the tin cup top to the knoll in the meadow where his father and the hired man were working. And then Farmer Green said: How are your stings now?" 'Awful!" Johnnie informed, him hopefully. "Maybe you'd like to stop work for the rest of the day and go swim ming," said Farmer Green, with a wink at the hired man, "unless you're feeling to miserable," he added. "Oh, yes! Oh, no!" cried John nie. "My stings aren't too bad for and the United States must ratify, perhaps with reservations, the treaty of Versailles. The republican platform plank on the treaty was adopted to please Johnson and Borah, who want to kill the league of nations, to keep them from bolting. It was drawn by Elihu Root who pre dicts that "the league of nations covenant will be adopted with reservations by therepublicans in the next administration." Here we have the republican platform heralded by some as the death of the league and by others as its salvation. Johnson asserts that a vote for Harding is a vote to kill the League and Taft declares it a vote to. save the League. If Johnson is right, Taft is wrong, and if Borah is right, Hoover is wrong. Such a platform, it is plain, is not honest. It is not sincere. It is de signed to fool somebody and that somebody is the dear people, It is to catch votes for the League and votes against the League, and typical of the cynicism of the Old Guard. How is any one to stand "four square" upon such a platform? Roseburg. Afciut half of the Doug las county prune crop has already been contracted at 16 cents a pound.

NINE BILLIONS FOR LUXURIES Statistics compiled by the treasury department in the cam paign against high living costs, show that the people of the United States spend $8,710,000,000 for luxuries annually. In the luxury list are listed such articles as motor cars, pianos, carpets and luxurious clothing in addition to tobacco, candy and soft drinks. Some of the article? enumerated have emerged from the luxury class into necessities as civilization could not very well get along without them. Tobacco leads the list of luxuries and on it the people spend $2,110,000,000, each year. Cigarettes bring $800,000,000, cigars $510,000,000, smoking and chewing tobacco and snuff another $800,000,000. Candy makers reap a harvest of $1,000,000,000 annually and $50,000,000 is yearly spent for chewing gum. Soft drinks cost the public $350,000,000; perfumery and cosmetics $750,000,000; furs $300,000,000; carpets and "luxurious clothing" $1,500,000,- 000; toilet soaps $400,000,000;; pianos, organs and phonographs $250,000,000, and automobiles $2,000,000,000. The labor and capital employed in producing these luxuries, if turned into producing necessities, would materially reduce the high cost of living. The luxury consumer is therefore paying a higher price for necessities, because of the abnormal consumption of luxuries. Prohibition has materially increased the consumption of to bacco, candy, and soft drinks and stimulated the market for other luxuries which while it does not swell savings bank accounts, is on the whole a healthful change. The totals loom large, but everything is on an inflated basis and then thfs a billion dollar nation, and life wouldn't hold much joy if . it .wasn't for the luxuries.
