CHAIRMAN HAYS' KEYNOTE (F. D. Swaney, in New York World) May I suggest that the Republican party can spare itself the trouble and expense of a national convention this year? There is no need of a note" speech by Mr. Lodge or anybody else. The, keynote has been struck, and by whom more appropriately thand that of unselfish ideals stateston, Hill Hays, chairman of the national committee.

"We are more interested in stomachs of people than the hearts of the world." Here is a gem of purest ray serene. Here, indeed, is the beautiful adventure, the very spirit of. noblesse oblige, a platform and a keynote speech in one--in perfect consonance with Mr. Lodge's utterances.

Lodge's "They will take us at our own terms," and Richard Croker's famous "I work for my own pocket all the time." It sounds so much like Abraham Lincoln and reminds one of that line in a deluded soldier's poem "To you with failing hands we throw the torch -be your to bear it high."
