DELIVERIES TO ALL SECTIONS OF THE CITY POLITICAL CHIEFS sHommis Parties' Spokesmen < Call Faithful to Thdr Sup port on Tuesday. - "ISSUE IS NOW CLARIFIED |W With the closing days of the polltl .. ? ? ; \ i. I ? - -i cal etmptlgn at hand. the reepecttve campaign committee* are redoubling their efforts to ret before the public statements setting" forth their side of the issue to be settled at the polls next Tuesday. Homer EL Cummlngs, acting chair man of the democratic national com mittee, said: The insensate and violent assaults now beinr made by the leaders of the republican organization upon Presi dent Wilson have clearly disclosed the complete hypocrisy of \he conten tion which the leaders of that organi sation have been making up to a week ago, that they were supporting the President. This sudden change of tactics reveals what the initiated have long understood, namely, that the enemies of the President were seeking to obtain the power to injure him under the guise of a campaign in his support. "The issue is now completely clari fied?the issue is between the Presi dent and the critics of the President." Chairman Hays' Statement. Will H. Bays, chairman of the ' re publican national committee, issued a statement, in part, as follows: "The republican organization on every possible occasion since last March has voiced repeatedly the party's determination: First, to win the war now; second, for a peace with victory only, and never a peace by compromise bargaining of principles which would violate American rights, interests and honor and make a sac rilege out of our sacrifice, to be made again by our grandchildren; third, to prepare now in a sane manner for the problems of reconstruction. "The imperative necessity of the first point continues paramount. It is the supreme objective. The republican party, always dependable In matters of patriotism, says continually, 'Stand by the war." In this declaration of purpose is included the statement which the democratic party seems to have adopted as a slogan?'Stand by the President.' To stand by the Presi dent in support of all war .measures is a duty and privilege which repub licans have assumed as a matter of course as to all that the great office Implies, and in the performance of which duty the republican party has functioned far more fully and efficient ly than the democratic party, and In which course we will persist without waver or shadow of turning.' What "Stand" Include*. "Stand by the war includes far more; it includes stand by the President; it I includes stand by every public official, high or low, measured by the thorough ness with which that public official [stands by the war; it includes Stand 1 by the government; stand by this country; stand by our allies, e-yery one; stand against our enemies in this war. every one; stand by our soldiers I in France and the soldiers of our al lies; stand by every effort of war sav ing and war giving in this country; {stand for the cause for which we fight; stand by the "irreducible minimum* of peace terms; stand by the war aim of thin country, which is the uncondi tional surrender of Germany, that for ever we may end Prussl&nism in the world and the oppression which it typifies. And to this great first pur pose all our thoughts and actions are I directed." Gerard Makes Appeal. ? Supplementing his previous state ment urging that President Wilson's conduct of the war be sustained, | James W. Gerard, former American ambassador to Germany, today ad dressed an appeal to the American I people, in which he declared, his belief I that the election of a majority of re publicans to the Senate and House I would be regarded in Berlin ais a re pudiation of President Wilson. Mr. Girard said, in part: . 'Woodraw Wilson needs no defer? 1 from me. He is a master psychologist. He understands human nature and hu man aspirations. He understands the German nature and German psychol ogy. None can deny that his ability I to interpret the ideals of men has I given him the pre-eminent place in world leadership. His diplomacy, no less than the strength of allied arms, has broken the strangle-hold of Ger I man/s influence over her allies. Bul garia's American diplomatic repre I sentatlve Is authority that Wilson's I diplomacy prompted the surrender of his country. Wilson diplomacy has brought Turkey a supplicant to his feet, (begging mercy. Wilson diplomacy is disintegrating Austria-Hungary. I Wilson diplomacy will bring uncondl I tlonal surrender from Germany. It will dissipate the Germanic dream | of rebarbarlzing the world and It will annihilate the power and Influence : I of all those who sought to make such dreams realities. Wilson diplomacy has heartened and strengthened that element in Germany which allied 1 press and public have looked forward to as one of the strong means of j bringing about Germany's military I defeat, the moral regeneration and political democratization of that coun I try." Gives Oat Colby's Speech. I The democratic national committee issued as a statement a report of I the speech of Bainbridge Colby, mem-. ber of the United States Shipping | Board, at Worcester, Mass, last night. I Mr. Colby is a well known former I bull mooeer and some time ardent sup porter of Col. Roosevelt. In his ipeech last night Mr.. Colby said this I about the colonel, with other things. I "Mr. Roosevelt 1s shocked and hor I rifled and Senator Lodge, his faithful I disoiple, is horrified and shocked, too. I But this is not very Important, toy friends. CoL Roosevelt makes a busi ness of being horrified and shocked. I It is his vocation. He does nothing else. He is under contract with Pen rose and Will Hays, the manipulators I of republican opinion, to be horrified and shocked at a minute's notice and on every subject. . I "Very often he gets too horrified and shocked, as, for instance, when his I predictions of failure are falsified by such disconcerting realities as our victories of arms, of transport, of war organisation. Hie plaudits of the world drown his ales. and he has to I fall back on his nimble footwork. At this he is pretty good. Be can ex I press himself with equal violence on every side of every question. The re Ipublican Government oTNew Tone, whom he is today supporting for re-election, I was denounced by him a little While I ago as insincere and an worthy of j trust by all goo# citizens." XltcUa Challenges* Calder. . Representative Kitchlft tna letter I to Senator Calder challenged the New I Tork senator "to name a war mess 1 ure proposed by the President, kince I our declaration of War, that I did not vote for," and denied "as infamous ly false" a statement that he had had I said New Tork and New England had I brought on the war and he was going I to make them pay for It.

Secretary of Agriculture David F. Houston authorized a statement, in part, as follows: "It is tremendously Important' that, while the war lasts, the President have behind him a sympathetic ma jority in each house: Republican ma jorities would, of course, support the war. but certainly no more vigorously than democratic majorities. "Hostile political majorities 'obvi ously would not conduce as effectively to the easy and orderly administra tion of war tasks aft- would sympa thetic majorities. What has been ac complished with democratic majori ties in a year and a half has excited the admiration of the nations we are fighting with and has created con sternation among the Germans and our other enemies^ * "Would not a republican Senate be reactionary? Who are the ranking re publican leaders In the Senate and who would head the great commit tees, such as those on finance, ap propriations, foreign relations and military and naval affairs? Is not the republican party today even more completely under the control of vita old-time reactionary leaders than it has been for a numbed of years?"
