HEAR WILSON
BLOCKED BILL
FOR ONE TERM
Letter He Wrote in 1913 Said
TO Have Resulted in Pigeon
Holing Measure.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.--It has
been learned here that President Will
Son is opposed to the plank in the
Baltimore platform limiting the
President of the United States to
one term. 1t was ascertained today
that Mr.. Wilson, then President
elect, but still governor OF New Jer-
sey. expressed his views on this sub.
ject in February, 1913, in q letter to
Representative A. Mitchell Palmer, of
Pennsylvania.
On February 1, 1918, the Senate, by
the necessary two-thirds vote, adopt
ed a joint resolution submitting TO
the States constitutional amend
slent limiting the Presidency to a
single term of six years. The reso-
luton was then sent to the House,
where it was pigeon-holed in the
judiciary committee. Had 1t been
adopted by the House and ratified by
three-fourths of the States during
the incumbeney of President Wilson,
he, like Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft,
would have been disqualified for fur
Their service in the White House.
Upon IcCSlpL u tHc lStlST lTOul
Mr.. Wilson, Representative Palmer,
SO the story goes. submitted the COM
munication which was ten pages in
length, to Chairman Henry D. Clay
ton, of the House judiciary commit
tee, and to other leading Democratic
members of that committee. Repub-
lican members of the committee were
not taken into the secret. The reso-
luton had been introduced in the
Senate as a result of the widespread
criticism of Mr.. Roosevelt's third
term aspirations in 1912, but the
strong opposition of President elect
Wilson was sufficient. it was said, to
cause the Democratic leaders of the
House to sidetrack the measure.
During the Presidential campaign,
Mr.. Wilson refused to comment on the
s ane-term plank. 1t was not known
Until today, except by a few of the
Presidents more intimate advisers
and the members of the judiciary
committee, to whom the Presidents
letter to Mr.. Palmer was shown, that
Mr.. Wilson ever had commented one
way or the other on the plank.

Love, Not Preparedness for
War, Is Foundation for
Universal Peace-Bryan

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 49,
Voicing the sentiment that the only
foundation for universal peace is love
and not preparedness for war, Will
lam Jennings Bryan, secretary of
state, and Oscar S. Straus, a former
secretary of commerce and labor,
were the principal speakers at an i'm
pressive peace demonstration here to-
night in Convention Hall. Mayor
Blankenburg presided and Rev. Will
lam II. Roberts, stated clerk of the
Presbyterian general assembly, Of
fered the opening prayer. Rev. J. j.
Wheeler, Of the Roman Catholic
Church of st. John the Evangelist,
pronounced the benediction.
I'm this age our interests are so
entwined with the interests of those
who reside in other lands that no ma
ton can live or die unto itself alone"
said Secretary Bryan. IF we had no
higher reason for encouraging condi-
tons conducive to peace, we should
find ample justification in the fact
that the burdens of war are no longer
borne entirely by those who are direct
participants in it.
He said that the world may have
needed one more war to prove conclu-
sively the "fallacy of the doctrine that
preparedness for war can give assur-
ance of peace"
