Republican success in a national cleo
tion has never depended on carrying
either Maryland, Kentucky or New
Jersey. But no Democrat ever got to
the White House who did not carry all
of these states and New York into the
bargain. Maryland and Kentucky may
or may not be Democratic next year;
the chances are that they will not. But
New Jersey and New York are sure to
be Republican. And the candidate who
carries these states is always elected.

The embassy has only interfered in
cases where parents of the boys have
appealed for it's Intervention and
those restored are but part of the
number of ardent American minors
who have enlisted under the guise of
Canadians.
Notable among the erstwhile SOL
Giers are Howard and Harold Hud-
son, twins, aged 16, of Bridgeport,
Conn. Thanks to the embassy OF
Uncle Sam they are now safe and
sound at home with their parents.
The boys were sent to England for
schooling. When war began to be
the sole topic of conversation, school
held no charms for the twins. They
ran away and enlisted in a Sussex reg
iment They told the recruiting ser
geant they were eighteen and easily
passed the military examination.
They soldiered for many weeks FL
nally word Of the true situation found
its way to the Hudson home in
Bridgeport. An appeal was hurried
y
at Washington It was passed on to
the American embassy here. The
twins were quickly grabbed and
sent home.
Many Of the youths whose soldier
life has been interrupted by Uncle
Sam still remain in England In
some cases their parents are unable
t. send them money to buy civilian
clothing and return TO America. No
fund at the embassy provides for
such expenditures. Relief societies in
London are caring for some Of them.
An American steamship line has
agreed to take three each voyage,
provided they will work their way to
New York.
Inquiry at the embassy today en-
phasized the importance Of sending
funds from America II parents wish
the government to reclaim their sons
from Europe's battlefields. When
the American authorities find the boys
they are Of course, garbed in khaki.
Their citizen clothing has been let
behind Funds are needed to buy
new raiment. Money is also necessary
for their keep and to send them to
Liverpool where they may take their
turn at work on an American liner.
The embassy is making the best
o. a bothersome situation.
Unofficial records show that more
than 1000 Americans are enrolled in
the various divisions Of the British
srmy, mainly the Canadian contin-
gent. Over 100 are dead on the bat
tlefields Of Flanders. Adventure and
the pure love Of a scrap is the mo-
tive which has impelled the majority
to brave their bodies to bullets, ac-
eordlng to the general opinion. Some
few have taken TO heart what Is de-
clared TO be "the German menace"
and have enlisted to help England,
feIieving that America would come
next on the German list II the allies
fail. This sentiment, however, is not
the predominant one among the Am
