Our congressional delegation, now
serving us, all win anxious tn
further our interests in the war
game and aland behind the presi­
dent in all necemarv measures.
While it is true that one or two of
our own reprcscntaliv«*» have not
l>een very enthusiastic in support of
the president, their votes have
geneially l<cen right. We might do
better to replace some of them with
new men and we might do worse.
We demand that each of them,
whether our present member» of
congress are retained in whole or in
part, or shall be replaced by new
men. shall drop partiaaniNn for the
time being and become AMERICANS
at leaat until we have won the war.
The winning of the war is our one
central purpose and no man should
be selected for either house of con­
gress who. will not submit every
other interest to thia one great
puepose.
Tentative candidates al the pres­
ent time for the U. S. senate are
