WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-In let
ter addressed to Representative Os-
car W. Underwood. leader of the
Democratic majority in the House OF
Representatives, made public last
night President Wilson gives what
amounts to blanket Endorsement Of
the Democratic membership in Con-
gress for the work they have accom-
plished since the incoming OF the

dents letter Is his principal contribu-
ton to the political campaign of this
year, when the entire membership Of
the House and one-third of the mem
bership OF the Senate will be elected
by the people Of the States of the
Union.
While the major portion OF the COM
munication Is devoted TO reviewing the
work of the Democratic Congress. the
President has something 10 say in The
way OF comparison of the Democratic
and Republican parties TO the ad,an-
tage of the former He does not honor
the Progressive party by even the most
casual reference. That he has in ms
minds eye some Democrats who did not
remain within the party breastworks
while the administrations program wa.
being carried out. and does not intend
that his blanket Endorsement shall cover
these men. is indicated by his statement
that he would like On 20 into the dis
trlct OF every member of Congress who

The President expresses confidence
in the outcome of Congressional cleo
TONS that is. confidence that the vot-

says, have never failed to reward

service has been rendered by the pres
ent Democratic Congress. The party
is united, the President remarks. The
Democratic party he asserts. is free

Mayor Howell FaVOrS Modified

That a new charter would be re-

opinion of Mayor Harrison w.

am convinced that a government

under the present plan never can be
as advantageous as il each separate
department were under the control
of one director. OF course. i'm each
instance, it goes without saying that
the director must be a man thoroly
equipped for the work he undertakes.
In other words, corporation like
the City OF Wilmington should be

in the business community.
SO, then, let us say that a presi-

il is now constituted. namely. one
member elected from each ward and
a president chosen at large. have
say. three OF five councilmen elected
