he judge will invade the Wes

veek. ' - H
Judge Driyer in His speeches
l01nted out tof his hearers the
,ravity of ^ conditions ,'pf^ this
ountry to-day as shown by the
c that of the hundreds of
^ra^tec^ men who
rm ^arms to g0 into the
f’ only ^ve Per cent, accord
0 government figures, have
J Urn ed to the farms after leav
e army. He contrasted
.„ remuneration received by
trs with the pay given to
the workers in the cities and
said that the movement from
rural districts to the city was
gaining momentum as shown by
the fact that there are not suffi
cint houses in the cities and
towns to accommodate the in
flux of; new residents. As a re
sult the country is threatened
vHth a food Shortage because of
the shortage of farm labor.
v £The! speaker made his posi
tion cjear on many of the im
portant national, questions, -in
the course of his addresses.
Taking up the question of com
pulsory military' training he
placed himself on record as op
posed to the proposition. He
does not favor further invasion
by the federal government of the
police-power of the states. How
ever, ip taking this position, he
does nqt advocate the repeal of
the prohibition narcotic and
white slave laws.
He favors immediate resump
tion of the work .of the . govern
ment on rivers and carrying out
of a bigger plan to ma*ke them
navigable ini conjunction with
railroad transportation. ,
Construction of trunk line
highways for transportation so
as to render the country inde
pendent cf railroad trouble is an
other plank in his platform.
He, sd$o advocates the mainte
nance of levee systems as an ex
clusive national undertaking be
cause the levees are used in con
nection with general government
navigation purposes and because
conditions making this necessary
are conditions existing in over
half of the states in the union.
Judge Driver’s stand on the
controversary between capital
and labor is of special interest.
He favors Strict regulation and
supervision of organizations of
both capital and labor with pro
hibition of strikes and the crea
tion of a commission with labor,
capital and the public represent
ed on the board to settle indus
trial disputes and with power to
enforce its decrees.
Anoiner matter wincu snuuiu
be of interest to every thoughtful
citizen is that of immigration.
Judge Driver, favors the restric
tion of immigration at least un
til the country is able to educate
the mass of immigrants already
here in the principles of this
government.
The speaker also took up , the
question of general education
and declared that radical changes
wei*e necessary if the nation is
to maintain its teaching force
&nd continue the present system
of education.
Taking up the propagation of
Bolshevism and similar doctrines
Judge Driver said he wanted a
sedition law with ample penal
ties to take care of those who
advocate a change by Wee and
violence of our government to a
LOOK INTO THE FUTURE
* J* PIERPONT MORGAN was a big money maker
because of his big vision—because he never allowed
himself to be blinded by the things close at hand.
He often said :
‘Every man will go broke who is a persist
ent bear on the future of this great United
States of ours.’* n „
