I utea nto America to have the country administered again by a Re- | publican party cleansed, chastenI ed, re-dedicated to service. "After every Democratic depression in the past they have called us back. The Democrats have proved again and again that they can conceive high Ideals and enact far-reaching reforms. They have proved, perhaps, that they have more ideals than we have. "Bryan had more Ideas than Me- | Kinley. Debs had more ideas than Theodore Roosevelt. Franklin Roosevelt had more ideas than Coolidge had. They have ideas, but they do not seem to he able ; to make the ideas work. They can 1 enact reforms but they cannot give ■ jobs. “They can stir up class consciousness. but they cannot bring the farmer and the worker and the business man together in a united effort which means peace, and ' state larger national income on which is dependent the prosperity of all.’ i Barton then pointed out that the II Republicans had not repealed the

reforms of President Cleveland or Wilson, but that it had put people' to work. It should not, he said.: repeal the new deal's progressive measures, but that the Republican party again has the responsibility , of creating jobs. Barton evidently referred to the recent poll on President Roose-/ veil's popularity and the national I estimate of his most important I jolicies recently conducted by For-1 tune magazine. He said that "recent polls'' show ! that the people have come "part! way" toward the Republicans. "But in their minds,” he added,! | "there is still a hesitation, a curj ions mixture of seemingly contra- . dicory ideas. They say they disI like his methods, but they still I like the president. They say they distrust his advisers, but they still trust him. "They say they regard many of j his policies as failures, but but I they would vote for him again.■ Here is something more than a marvelous personal tribute; it is a new phenomenon in American i history. “Always before, if a man's meth-; ods were condemned, he stood condemned; if his policies failed, he fell. What is the secret of this political miracle? “If we can answer that question, i if we can appropriate the magic of this vast loyalty in a faith, our political problem is solved." “The answer," Barto said, “is! easy.” “Those men and women who have been most neglected in our American life believe they have found a friend ... In a job. or out of a job. in funds or on relief, they say to themselves; ‘he cares. He is trying to do something about it.’ Whether that faith is well-found-ed or ill-founded, whether the sense of security is justified or is a cruel illusion destained to go down in despair when waste and extravagance have finished their work, the fact remains that this mass feeling toward the president is the controlling influence of our day. “To igore it is blindness; to inveigh against it is political in- j sanity. The ntellgent attitude is to admire it. covet t. and set industriously and sincerely to work to deserve it.” i Barton then said that governj ment and business working toj gether could "achieve what neithi er alone can do." "Business and our party, he i said, "must make the people understand and feel that they are first in our thinking; that their success. their security, their future is safer when government is ! soundly managed than when gov- | eminent, even under the most BinI cere ad attractive leadership, is 1 covering up its failures by the lavish expenditures of borrowed i money. "We believe in change,” Barton asserted. “We are out afraid of change. We refuse longer to burden ourselves with those who are unable to see that today’s conditions demand open-minedness, freedom from prejudice, willingness to change." — ♦ TODAY'S COMMON ERROR Flaccid is pronounced ■ flak'-si<l; not flas'-id.
DENIES THREAT AGAINST WIFE I American Heiress Obtains English Warrant Against Husband London, June 29 —(U.R)--Attorn-leys for Count Gourthatigwitz-Ruv-|i-ntlow sought today to smooth the I way for his return from France to I deny that he had made threats against his wife, Countess Barbara' Hutton Haugwitz-Reventlow, $40,■OO,OOO American five and ten cent store heiress. Norman Birkett, chief counsel for the Count, w’ent to Bow street pol-1 1 ice court this mornin to confer with | Magistrate T. W. Fry. Vernon CatI tie, representing the Counter, ac-j lontpanied him. "We wanted to get a day fixed I for a hearing, but the magistrate j would not fix a special day until the i 1 Count arrived in this country,”; said Gattie later. The 'Bow street proceedings last-, ed half an hour and special precautions were taken to Ineure secrecy, i All persons except direct partici- : J pants were excluded from the court. it appeared, from Gattie’s state- , ment, that the Count would have to i 'tome here — where a warrant requiring his immediate presence in ' court awaits him — to arrange for ■ a hearing. A dispute between the Count and ( Countess reached a climax when the | Countess applied to Scotland Yard for protection and obtained a warrant under which the Count, it he arrived in Great Britain, would have to appear at once at Bow street court. The warrant was issued with the idea that if the Count did not come here, a restraining order would have Ibeen issued against him as regards any interference with the, Countess, it was reported.
