He Intends, It was said, more specifically to out line exactly what measures he advo cates to correct the abuses In gov ernment which he ascribes to the democratic administration. Hughes has been considerably rolled over democratic declaration that his cam paign so far has exhibited mostly complaints, without Indicating cor rective and constructive remedies.

James enumerated some of the ac complishments of the Wilson admin 1st rat Ion. The federal reserve act. he said, freed the country from the money oligarchy, "destroying at the same time the money trust" and the panic trust. Referring to the presi dent's diplomatic successes without plunging the country Into war, the senator said: "This great triumph you achieved for America and for the world gave protection to non-combatants and neutrals that war-mad countries must respect and this diplomatic achieve ment will be the guiding, protecting precedent to millions of lives of the Innocent and unoffending long after you are gone.
