Thomas H. Ince, Producer,
Will Support President
New York, Nov. 4. Thomas H. Ince,
producer of the famous Triangle mov
ing picture films, who added a special
feature to his pliotodrama "Civiliza
tion" to bring the Wilson argument
home to his audiences, lias sent to the
WoodVow Wilson Independent League
the following statement:
"I will vote for Woodrow Wilson be
cause he is saving civilization by keep
ing u at peace. He has maintained
warfare
the period fraught with startling and
unexpected world evcrtts, and that
Woodrow Wilson should resign from
the bench and take the stump against
you.
"Would not such a campaigu on bis
part impress you with the littleuess in
his conception of the high duties be
linitrinp to vour ffreat office!"
Mr. Hansbrough then recounts the
great achievement of President Wilson
his peace policv, tariff commission,
federal reserve act, rural credit bill and
eight-hour measure assuming that Hu
ghes had caused these to be enacted,
nnd adds:
"Had you exercised your best judg
ment in conformity with the best inter
ests of all people, regordless of their
party affiliations, nnd Mr. Wilson, seek
ing to supersede you as the chief exe
cutive of the country, were to declare
that nothing you had done was ngnr
and everything you had done was
wrong, I ask you if the result would not
be very depressing to you, a puinouc
and fair minded citizen!
"This was the feeling that prompted
me. after listeuiug to one of your first
speeches in this campaign, to declare
mvself in favor oi the re-election of
Mr. Wilson.
"But for the fact that you are seek
ing an office, wouldn't you cast your
vote as I iutend to cast mine for the

quarrel with the Wilson method of
settling disputes between the United
