MORE POWER FOR THE FOURTH OF JULY Without a doubt Herbert Hoover is the popular CELEBRATION choice of the people as the republican nominee.

I ORON ITE THE REDS AND THE PINKS An insidious movement having for its object the over throw of American institutions has been udner way in this country for several years, fostered by radicals of var ious shades, from the red communist to the pink parlor socialist. Since the World war the favorite strategy of these elements has been to further their ends through alleged “ peace” societies, whose avowed object seems laudable enough, but whose real purpose is to weaken the nation and leave it a prey to sinister influences emanating from Soviet Russia. It is well known to informed observers that many of our universities and schools, and even our churches, are honeycombed with doctrines which are subversive of the national welfare. Many of those who lend aid to the diffusion of these doctrines are unaware of their real pur pose, being merely dupes of veiled propaganda put forth ostensibly in the interest of peace. Every right thinking person favors sane and practical means for the prevention of war, but the world has not yet advanced to the point where any nation can safely aban don reasonable provisions for its own defense. Any organization or group which teaches a doctrine o f abject pacifism may well be looked upon with suspi cion by all patriotic citizens.
