Is President Wilson trying to
deceive the voters? Or is his
single one-track mind unable to
differentiate between what con
stitutes war and what consti
tutes peace. When'McKinley was
President the casualties among
the sailors and marines engaged
in fighting was 84, o f whom 16
were killed and 68 wounded. It
was called war then.
Under Wilson, who says he has
kept the country out o f war, the
casualties among the soldiers and
sailors engaged in fighting in
Mexico. San Domingo and Hayti
were 107. A t Vera Cruz 19 sail
ors and marines were killed and
9*> wounded, In the Hati cam
paign four marines were killec,
and in the Santo Domingo cam
paign four marines, including one
officer, were killed.
This is how President Wilson
has kept the country out o f war.
More sailors and marines killed
in fighting since President W il
son has been “ keeping us out o f
w ar” than were killed during the
whole Spanish-American War, to
say nothing about the citizens
killed by stray shots across the
border. Why doesn’ t the Presi
dent tell the truth about it? H i
can't fool the people when the
records o f the N avy Department
are available.
