DECLARES WAR WILL
STRENGTHEN SOCIALISM

In an address in Moose temple, Jun,
day afternoon, Emil Seidel, former
mayor of Milwaukee. declared that
Socialism will gain strength as re.
suit of the war in Europe.
Those who profess to know" he
said, will tell you that French. Ger.
man, English and Russian capital
started the war to destroy the germ
of Socialism. The war, instead OF be-
ing destroyer of that germ, is a pre.
lude to peace in which information
alism and Socialism will emerge
stronger than ever"
Mr., Seidel pleaded for votes for the
Socialist cause, declaring: This will
not be a free country until men can
demand jobs instead of asking for
them"

The Republicans carried % states:
which in the Electoral College cast 2sS

22 over the 266 necessary for a choice.
There are three States which may De
temporarily classed as doubtful. as on
national issues they divide their alesi-

Senators were chosen but Republ can
Congressional delegations were elected.
At this election, 20 DEMOCRATIC mem.

was larger than the Democratic plural

thirty-c' ght States whose returns have
