When Governor Cox accused the republican bosses of a purpose to "Newberryize the country" he coined a phrase not soon to be forgotten. How Michigan was Newberryized is a matter of political, financial, judi cial and criminal record. In 101S the task set for the gold diggers was the election of a con gress opposed to the president of the I'nited States. Michigan was a weak spot in the line, owing to the candi dacy of Henry Ford. To gain con trol of the senate all republican seats had to be kept and several democrats displaced. A supreme effort in be half of Truman H. Newberry was therefore necessary in Michigan, and, as it turned out, his purchased elec tion was what gave the republicans a majority, enabled them to pack the committee on foreign relations against the league of nations and made it possible for Mr. Ixidge to kill the treaty of peace. Persons whose memory is good will recall the fact that when Mr. Fud complained that the election had been bought, Mr. Newberry and all his agents were as vociferous in their denials as Chairman Hays and Treasurer I'phani now are. They said the charges were preposterous. They threatened counter-exposure. They made light of indictments and sneered at the lav.-. Yet Senator Newberry and sixteen others were found guilty of criminal conspiracy, and the judge who sentenced them said: "If such conditions are to be endured the hopes and aspirations of every man for political preferment I. id "!. v. who is now studving musi ne measureu uy me mzc 01 ins Th- t-r':.' of his emlith divorce v l- tiin. tirol. al.lv will persist in bis At the trial it was shown that. in h i.f a s--ood true woman who I to New bcrrvize Michigan, inonev was wiil - tile down and make a home. distributed lavishly not only in reg- -:o: j ular party channel.s but through pri- Tli- discouraging thing about tell- vate organizations, churches and ing a fri nds about an ir.t' iesting i class publication.

Money was spent to develop regular democratic opposition to Ford. TJie defense finally admitted the expenditure of $ ITS, 000. but Rood judges estimated the cost of Newberry's campaign at from $.r00, 000 to $1. 000. 000. When Michigan was Newberryized the state was districted at party headquarters and funds apportioned according to the assumed needs of each locality. This corresponds with the quota system now practiced by the republican national committee for the collection of the millions to be spent for the election of Senator Harding. In 1!1S the county and district committee in Michigan were asked by Newberry's managers to make their official reports of receipts and expenditures one-tenth of the actual amounts. That is about the proportion of their quotas which in some cases young .Mr. nays agents ire willing to admit this year. The United State; senate has been Newberryized. The league of na tions has been Newberryized. The treaty of peace has been Newberry ized. Ily reason of our continuance in a state of war, with most of the war laws still in force, the industrial. economic and judicial systems of the country have been Newberryized. The presidency only remains. Is that also to be Newberryized? New York World. o:o THE LEAGUE AT WORK Senator Harding pronounces the league of nations " a failure and a wreck heyonu the possibility or re pair, ar.d Senator Lodge character izes it as "a battered hulk." What are the facts? 1. The league of nations is now composed of thirty-nine member na tions, representing seven-eights of the people of the globe. Practically all the nations of the world have joined except United States, Russia, Mexico and the ex-enemy countries It seems probable that Germany and Austria will be admitted at the meet- inf of the assembly of the league to be held at Geneva in November. It is significant that the Germans par ticipated fully at the International Seamen's Conference of the league at Genoa, and not only the Germans but the Autrians, Hungarians and Bulgarians have been invited to the International Financial Conference of the league at Brussels on Septem ber 24. 2. The range of the league's work may be indicated by the following schedule of Its meetings. Parentheti cally, it should be noted that the leagues policy is to hold its meetings in as many different countries as pos sible. The council of the league hns held sessions in London, Paris, Home and San Sebastian; the International Labor conference of the league met at Washington, the International Seamen's conference at Genoa, the Jurist's Advisory committee at The Hague, the International Health conference at Iondon, the Interna tional Ports and Waterways confer ence at Paris, the Armaments com mission at San Sebastian. The Fin ancial conference will soon meet at Brussels and the Transit conference at Barcelona. 3. The Armaments commission of the league (provided for by Article 'IX of the covenant) has t-?en organ ized and is now at. work on the be I ginning.? of a plan of universal dis armament for submission t othe na tions of the world. Obviously, the ; United Ftates is not represented on this commission. 4. A permanent Mandates com mission has been appointed, as pro vided for in article XXII of the cov enant, to supervise the administra tion of the territories and peoples freed from German and Turkish rule. The application of this new princi ple Is vitally important to us, not on ly frtmi the standpoint of freedom of trade for American commerce, but still more from the standpoint of es tablishing a system of justice which will prevent backward countries from being the tinderbox of future wars. 5. The plans for a permanent Court of International Justice have been completed and are ready for submission to the assembly of the league at its meeting in November. Mr. Boot served as a member of this particular subdivision of the league's activity. 6. The council will place before the assembly in November the pro posal for a joint committee to work out the plans and principles of eco nomic blockade as the strongest guarantee of world peace and the greatest restraint on a bandit nation that the countries of the world have ever agreed to put into effect. Un less the I'nited States is a member of the league it cannot join in forg ing this powerful weapon. 7. The Financial conference call ed the league of nations for the last of this month is the most important international gathering since the conference of Versailles. The league has brought together a mass of in formation on world economic matters such as has never been available before, covering such subjects as in ternational finance, credits, cur rency, exchange, etc. At this con ference, which touches the interest and well-being of every nation of the world, the United States will not be oiliciallv represented. S. Single-handed in Poland, with funds provided by Its members, the league is fighting the typhus epidem ic, doing its best to keep back from the rest of the world the flood of this fearful scourge. The estimated cost of this work is S 15.000.000. The United States has no part in the fin ancing. 9. The league is understanding the task of repatriating the half mil lion prisoners " of war Russians, Germans, Poles, Hungarians. Ruman ians, etc. who, due to lack of trans it facilities, are still retained in en emy countries. It is estimated that 100.000 of these men will be re turned to their homes before Christmas. 10. The league has established an International Health ottice. a bureau to light the international exploita tion of opium and other drugs, and a division to suppress the international trade in women and girls. These points represent the main activities of the league in the seven months of its existence. It is far from "wr ecked." It is going abend most courageously, rapidly organiz ing its work, regardless of the United States. We cannot destroy it, nor can be substitute another league in its place. Indeed, the latter con tention is the sheerest absurdity. We have only two choices to stay out side of a community of nations or ganized for co-operation and peace and thereby lose our whole place in the worlfl, to say nothing of our own soul as a nation, or to come into the league (with reservations, if we think necessary) and put our shoul der to the wheel in all those great movements for which American for eign policy has always stood.

Quotations, on staple food stuffs have shown considerable break dur ing the past few days, which listens mighty pood to the ultimate con sumer, who. like Jones, "pays freight." Sugar has shown a longed and steady decline, and it tickles us alnitst to death to up the paper and read where some "sweet stuff" baron stands to lose a few million because of the drop. A decrease of a nickel a pound in the price of coffee also means, we hope, that a few other "get-rich-quick" guys stand to drop a few of their ill-gotten dollars. The only way to feirce prices down, as this writer has always maintained, and its an eco nomic problem age-old in applica tion, is to lay off buying. Perhaps the time will again come when sales men from the wholesale centers will vie Mith each other for orders, in stead of walking in, stating the price, and maintaining a "take-it-or-leave-it-alone" attitude as they now do. And then, as in days of yore, real salesmanship will count and half of the Knights of the grip now on the road will be back on grand-dad's farm hoeing potatoes for that is where they belong. Yes. we saw a couple of their kind in Plattsnio'ith today. Talk about inspiration, we could write a column of this subject. OltDF.K UV IIK.AHI; u IVllllon for A ppolntment nt . (I in i ii 11 rn rl v.
