the Democrats stood by the president,
who had made a personal appeal for
the repeal in order that the nation
honor might be maintained and its
foreign policy be not interfered with.
Clark carried only fifty-two of his
Democratic followers with him on the
final vote. twenty-five Republicans
and two Progressives also stood by
the president.

man is convinced that when the white
force is sufficiently large 1t will be
phychologically impossible for fight

war will be made impossible. The

general and is making a tour of
the whole of Sweden expounding his
plan and organizing his army. Thus
