Mr. 1'lnchot spokfj in part as foUown: Since early tn June 1 have been traveling almost continuously, and have had a fair chance to come In contact with and estimate public sentiment in all the divisions of the country.

Using IM Inforssatlon thus secured trom contact i men of many occupations and varieties of political belief In many localities. 1 have tried to write down an estimate of the composite opinion ot the ot fill purlieu in the Kast. the South, the Mississippi Valley and the Pacific coast on certain public questions. What I have written mukeu no pretense to be complete. And the task is not without difficulty.

Opinions fiercely held In some parts ot tho country, In others not yet risen to the surface public Issues. The underlying fact, its found it everywhere, was deep-seated, powerful Indignation over the Inequality ot opportunity everywhere known to exist, and the firm determination to put Ml to It somehow, and that soon.

I believe that it should be unlawful for any lawmaker or other public servant to be employed by or tg receive compen- xatlon from any interstate or public service corporation, or for any public servant appointed and not elected to office to be.an officer i a political party or organbmtlon, or to attend any. political convention. I believe It should be unlawful for any lobbyist or Other representative of any Intereet to advocate oppose any measure to slny legislator or legislative committee without first publicly registering his name, the nature ot his compensation and the name of employer. I believe that the most pressing patriotic duty of today ID to revive popular government by driving the special Interests out of politics, and that complete publicity of -all the affairs vt every ISH ierstate and public service corporation is necessary to that end.
