South With Wilson.
Representative Heflin, Democrat, OF
Alabama, congratulated some of the
Republicans for standing with Presi-
dent Wilson in the fight.
Il am glad to see men big enough
to break away from their leader and
stand with the president and against
the kaiser" Mr.. Hefiin said. 1T is
Lansing and Wilson or Won Bernstorff
and the kaiser" ..
1 Appealing to the South, Mr.. Helm
asked where she stood. His answer
came from Representative Gambler Of
Mississippi. who shouted from the
rear of the chamber that the South
stood solidly with the president.
Representative Decker, Democrat
of Missouri, one of the original agita
| tors for a warning resolution, declared
the country was threatened by wal
over the issue of a doubtful lega
right.
In Germany" he shouted, the
question is "Will you stand by the
kaiser?' In England, viii you stanC
by the king? In Russia, viii you
stand by the czar?' If war comes We
will all stand by the president. bu
this government, thank God, is a rep
resentative one, and to the insinuat
ing temper of the South we will say
we will stand by the people"
| Representative Shackleford of Mis-
souri, one of the leaders in the agita
ton for a warning, surprised every
body by urging that the McLemor'
resolution be tabled. Since the outse
of agitation he has urged the passage
of a warning resolution.
Il am favorable to a warning res
olution," he said, but l am not il
favor of embarrassing the presiden
in his diplomatic negotiations, | wan
him to be permitted to pursue his owl
way in these negotiations. II there IL
danger of war and he needs our help
we have his promise that he will come
to US, so let US table this resolution
and not embarrass him.
Gives Praise to President.
Il am one Of those who believe tina
citizens should not imperil this coun
try by going on armed ships. The.
have the right, but when Americans
go on an armed ship they should d.
so at their own peril. Stand with tn
president? Yes, stand by him be
cause ! believe it is due to his effort
that we are not at war today"
Representative Linthicum, Democra
of Maryland, a member of the foreigl
affairs committee, spoke for tablinl
the resolution.
Charging the Democrats with instr
certify, Representative Meeker. Reput
lican of Missouri, declared:
You talk one way and then pre-
post to table the resolution SO as t
prevent a showdown"
Don't you suppose he asked
