THE MEYER CAMPAIGN
Mr.. Albert s. Bard Protests at Length

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Knowing the hopelessness OF
any attempt by private citizen 20
compete ia publicity with grcat
newspaper with which he differs po!l'l-
Cally, 1 shall not undertake TO make
any extended statement concerning
the communications TO voters made by
the Hon. Schuyler NJ. Meyer, candl-
date for member Of the Assembly IN
the 27th Assembly District, but will
content myself with saying that your
story printed in this mornings issue
is not a complete statement of my per
sonal connection with the matter.
Since, however, you have seen fit 20
bring in the Citizens Union perhaps
you will allow me to say that your
statement relating TO the connection
of that organization with the matter
is inaccurate and somewhat unfair in
its total impression. One thing, how
ever is true, and | trust that this viii
suffice for those who are interested in
the matter and in the Citizens Unions
connection with it-viz.. that the cam
paign committee of the Citizens Union,
after full knowledge Of all Mr. Meyers
circulars 20 voters. gave him their in
dOrsement You have printed two of
Mr.. Meyers circulars, but if you were
furnished with the third circular,
which was part of the same transac-
tion and which gave somewhat diff
ferent color TO it, you have sup
pressed il.
As to ny promotion of Mr.. Meyers
candidacy, perhaps the most impor-
tant fact IS that Mr.. Meyer has made
such an excellent record in the As
sembly that re has been Endorsed By
the Citizens Union in preference 10
two other cand ,ates concerning whom
no criticism can be made, so far as
am aware, except that they seem to be
less entitled than Mr.. Meyer to that
organizations Endorsement.

MADE IN U. S. A."
America the Better Word, in the
Opinion Of a West Coast Expert.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The recopmendation by com
m!ttee of the Made in America Products
Association mat made in L. S. A." he
adopted as a substitute for the des-
ignation embodied in tn title Of the
association leads me to question
whether all possible effects have been
considered Having resided in Mexico
Tor several years. ending in 1908, when
] went as commissioner 20 the Mexican
National Exhibition, Crystal Palace.
London, and in South America for
three subsequent years as managing
editor OF newsp tper and periodical pub
locations IN English, have gathered
Impressions that have, ut least, the
merit OF being first hand.
IL seems TO me that there is one I'M
portant phase Of the question TO which
no reference has been made. Enough
has been said OF the fact that there are
several nations using United States
IN their title, beginning with the
United 90 States Of Mexico. on our
southern border. Too little has been
made of the opposed fact that only the
well educated Central and South Amer
leans know what az. S. A." means. The
masses who are expected 20 respond to
the appeal of Made in America know
this republic only as the z. L. A.
