This means an altogether new standard of riding
comfort, a noteworthy reduction in the wear and tear
which lessens the efficiency of a car. The new springs
give longer life to every part and thus minimize up-
keep and replacement costs.
Tires wear longer because cushioned against
hammering blows. Light weight means marked econ-
omy in gas, oil and running expense.

WILSON’S CHALLENGE.
I do not accept the action of the
Senate of the United States as the de-
cision of the Nation. I have asserted
from the first that overwhelming ma-
jority of the people of this country
desire the ratification of the treaty
and my impression to that effect has
recently been confirmed by the un-
mistakable evidences of public opin-
ion given during my visit to seventeen
of the States. I have endeavored to
make it plain that if the Senate wish-
es to say what the undoubted mean-
ing of the league is, I shall have no
objection. There can be no reason-
able objection to interpretations ac-
companying the act of ratification it-
self. But when the treaty is acted
upon, I must know whether it means
that we have ratified or rejected it.
We cannot rewrite this treaty.
If there is any doubt as to what the
people of the countzy think on this
vital matter, the clear and single wajf
out is to submit it for the determina -
tion at the next election to the voter; *
of the Nation, jto give the next elec -
tion the form of a great and solemn']
referendum, a referendum as to the.'

Republicans have a majority in the
Senate and, therefore, can by right
dictate the Senate’s course. Being in
the minority., we cannot demand the
right to decide the terms upon which

BRYAN’S PROGRAM. |
We cannot afford, either as citizens (
or as members of the party, to shars!
with the Republican party responsi-
bility for further delay j we cannot gjo
before the country on the issue thai"
to include a treaty than to enter a
war?
. Neither can we go before the coun-
| try on the issue raised by Article 10.
‘ If we do not intend to impair the
right of Congress to decide the ques-
tion of peace or war when the time
for action arises, how can we insist
upon a moral 'obligation to go to war
which can have no force or value ex-
cept as it does impair the independ-
ence of Congress? We owe it to the
world to join in an honest effort to
put an end to war forever, and that
effort should be made at the earliest
possible moment.
