objectionable Neglect.

What an indictment by the admins
tration of its Mexican policy! And still
we are unprepared. That unpreparedness
in the midst OF perils, and after the ex-
periences of three years, is a demonstra-
ton OF an objectionable neglect for
which the administration is responsible.
The government now has. and must
have, most emphatically the unstinted
and patriotic support of every citizen in
the existing eXigency. But unquestion-
ing, loyal and patriotic support of the
government is one thing; approval of the
fatuous course which the administrat tion
has followed is quite another. l cannot
in this message adequately review that
course; that l shall do later.
NO intelligent man is deceived by the
temporary prosperity. due to abnormal
conditions. and no one can fail to appre-
ciate the gravity of the problems with
which we shall be faced when the war
ends
Il am in deep sympathy with the ef-
fort to improve the conditions of labor
to prevent exploitation: to safeguard the
future Of the nation by protecting our
women and children. I believe in work
mems compensat ton laws; in wise con-
servation OF our national resources so
that they may be protected, developed
and used to the utmost public advan-
tage.

very near future. Mr.. Hughes declined
either to affirm or deny this report.
The dispatch to o. X. Davis read:
20. X. Davis, Secretary Progressive Ma
tional Committee, Blackstone Hotel,
Chicago, Ill.
Il welcome the support of Progress
sives. We make common cause in the in
terest of national honor, of national Sc
curity. OF national efficiency. We unite
in the demand for an undivided and un-
wavering loyalty to our country; for a
whole-hearted patriotic devotion over
| riding all racial differences. We want a
| revival OF the American spirit-a nation
restored. We insist upon prompt and
adequate provision for the common de-
fense. Upon the steadfast maintenance
| of all the rights of our citizens and upon
the integrity of international law"
Calls Administration Weak.
The most serious difficulties the pre,-
ent administration has encountered have
been due to its own weakness and in
certitude. l, am profoundly convinced
that by prompt and decisive action
which existing conditions manfestly
called for, the Lusitania tragedy would
have been prevented. We strongly de-
| nounce the use OF our soil as a base for
alien intrigues. for conspiracies. and the
any foreign nation, but the responsibility
lies at the door OF the administration
The moment notice is admitted, respon-
sibility is affixed. For that sort of thing
could not continue II the administration
took proper measures to stop it, That
responsibility the administration cannot
evade by condemning it. 1t was officially
stated by the Secretary of State in the
Mexican note OF June 90 1916, that for
three years the Mexican republic has
been torn with civil strife: the lives OF
Americans and other aliens have been
sacrificed; vast properties developed by
American capital and enterprise have
been destroyed or rendered non-pro-
ductive; bandits have been permitted 10
roam at will through territory contigu-
Gus to the United States and to seize
without punishment or without effective
attempt ct punishment. the property OF
Americans. while the lives of citizens OF
| the United States who ventured to re-
main in Mexican territory or to return
there to protect their interests have been
taken, IN some cases barbarously taken
and the murderers have neither been ap-
pretended nor brought to justice.
