ANSWER SLOGAN
OF DEMOCRATS
Republican State Headquar-
tiers Sends Out Statement
Alliance Grows.

The pet slogan of the Democratic
national organization passed down to
the Idaho state committee, HE Kept
Us Out of War" was answered today
with the appearance at Republican
state headquarters of statement pre-
pared by the state organization.
Figures compiled by Chairman j. II.
GIBSON of the Hughes Alliance show
ing that the membership of the alliance
now stands 1928 of which number SAB
votes for Roosevelt four years ago, 46S
for Taft, SO for Wilson. 249 refused to
designate who they voted for, four Pro-
hibition and one Socialist, Before the
campaign closes there will be several
thousand members of the alliance,
Chairman Gipson states.
The answer of the state committee
to the Democratic slogan is in the fol-
lowing form:
Think! Has Wilson kept us out of
war? Who threatened to attack us?
The allies? No. Germany? No!
Well, then who? Germany's fleet was
bottled up in Kiel harbor. 1t is still
there. Did we make war on Mexico?
We seized her port. We invaded her
territory. Was that an act of war? If
Mexico seized New Orleans would it
be an act of war? We made war on a
stricken people, too weak to resist Are
you proud of it? Vote for Hughes and
peace with honor

what the ambassador characterized
later as every phase of the situation
involved in my work at Berlin" He

manned with him afterward for more
than two hours.
The ambassador said he planned to
remain in this country until after cleo

freely with reporters about various
phases of the German situation, but
refused absolutely to be quoted or to
allow the publication of what he said.
Il am representing the whole nation
and cannot mix in politics. he said.
Gerard would not say specifically that
he had discussed the submarine issue
or peace with the president, but in
reply to each direct question, replied
I'VE discussed the entire situation"
He did say, howev, +, that 1t could be
taken for granted that he would not
be away from his post If he believed
any immediate emergency was threat
ening.
