France's platform is typical of the special " privilege and big business stand on government. '. : France declares against prohibition and he supports free press and free speech. Of course prohibition is gaining wide recognition as a "cover up" issue. Free press and free spech should not be issues at all. They, are constitutional constitu-tional inviolable rights, above dispute. Then the exsenator declares flatly against all forms of governrajenj; ownership and ajrainsti "interference with ben- yeyolent capitalism, ; Such' an open stand against public ownership is nothing Uess -'-than a suggested return to feudalism, ; : Ever since the middle ages public ownership has followed civilization's progress. Th6 most important ,and vital, the largest enterprises have passed from private hands to be- come the property of the state. Roads, mail communications, communica-tions, national defenseeducation,- police and fire protection have all become public property as sane liberalism has convinced con-vinced the majority that these essentials BELONG to the ' people.- .. - Anyone daring to condemn "government ownership in all forms" is Advocating that all these things be turned back to profiteering individuals. Calling capitalism "benevolent" carries out this line-of thought. Going on the assumption that big business has the welfare of the people at heart and doesn't need regulation regu-lation or THREATENED REGULATION by tho people to keep its policies in line it follows that the logical course is surrender of all things to capitalism. . v ; 7 "We then would have a? "benevolent" government by the view. ,; -7 ' - . . - It happens to be true, however thaflmdemocratic gov ernments are either unbenevolent at the start or get that way in the course of time. History tells us this. And the people of the United States will not elect any presidents ho don't believe in public ownership or control, con-trol, but look for justice to the "benevolence" "6( rulifig capitalists. .Observations r ' SiffhmAi- annrfa will annn ! dash after one's straw hat that hai : been blown off by the wind. . y "- .

Coolin Calvidge Says BY COOLIN CALVIDGE NORTHAMPTON, Mass, April 1C Mahatma Gandhi, famous leader of India, is planning to visit the United States this summer. Gandhi only wears three vounces of clothing, and will be an object of ridicule, no doubt, to many American Amer-ican men, who enjoy sweltering in starched collars and woolen vests. If Gandhi visits our bathing beaches, however, he will find that, compared to our beach cuties - ' he is greatly overdressed. Gandhi says he will positively not wear a stiff shirt. This proves that he is a great leader, and one who has the best interests of the average man at heart." . .
