...will not welcome with glee the slurs which TIME has spread out before the people. If I am not mistaken, the thousands of women voters in Ohio who know that Willis has fought for their homes and firesides against the blackest beasts that ever annoyed human kind (the liquor gang) will lose no chance of resenting these insults of TIME...
...Sunday had come to St. Louis from West Frankfort, Ill., famed gang battlefield, of whose alleged viciousness he said this to St. Louis citizens: "There's just as good folks up there as ever lived . . . a lot of St. Louis crooks went down there and hid behind machine guns. . . ."

...Senator Willis is a phenomenon arising full-bodied from the Harding legend and native pomposity. It has no significance outside the borders of Ohio, where it serves only as a frock-coated obstacle (composed half of the Anti-Saloon League and half of what was once the "Ohio Gang,"* ) in Candidate Hoover's way. Far more obstructive to Hooverism was a meeting last week in Manhattan of G. O. Politicians who professed to believe that President Coolidge might yet be forced to run. Among these professionals were National G. O. P. Chairman William Morgan Butler of Massachusetts, National Vice...
