Nicely On The Job

Ottawa Republic: Because the
European war has created a stu
alton which in reality ought to
require every man in Congress t.
remAin in Washington on the job.
Congressman George A. Nicely.
Democratic candidate for senator.
refuses to come to Kansas now
and make campaign.
Even though this is the psyche
logical time to get woes by 8
speaking campaign, MIR NeelA
prefers to stick conscientlOusly t.
his post. There has been criticism
OF certain members of Congress,
because they have galliyanted of
toggIve chautauqua lectures OF
make campaigns, instead of stay
ing on the job. Certainly thai
criticism is more pertinent now
than ever before. T h c crisi,
created in federal finances and the
American shipping industry de
mands that Congressman support
President Wilson by staying il
Washington.
Nicely is the sort of man to
elect United States senator be-
cause he can be trusted to stay or
the job when most needed.

might be able to make, either indNid-

forming the strikers that the fight is
hopeless
1t is his way Of shifting the respOr.

The truth Of the matter is the fed
