PRESIDENT WILSON SOUNDS
WARNING TO HYPHENATES Who
TRY POLITICAL BLACKMA|L
In Flag Day Speech at Washing Hints What
Might Be One of the Issues in the Coming Campaign
-Women's Party Spread Banner, BE Prepared"

Washington June l4.-ln a Flag Day
speech here today President Wilson
charged that there are some foreign
born persons in the United States who
were trying TO levy a kind of political
blackmail on the American political
parties in the interest Of foreign gov
ernments.
This the President declared. must be
stopped. He was sounding what some
of his advisers said would be one of
the issue of the coming Prudential
campaign.
Persons in the Presidents confidence
said that his ideas about the political
activities of foreign born citizens would
be the basis of a plank in the platform
to be adopted by the St. Louis Conven-
ton.
President Leads Parade
Led by President Wilson carrying
the Stars and Stripes, nearly $4,000
men, women and children of Washing
ton marched up broad Pennsylvania
avenue today in a preparedness parade
arranged to emphasize the national
capitals demand for an adequate army
and navy.
The President. attired in White
trousers, blue coat and straw hat and
shouldering his flag like a musket,
stepped briskly to martial airs played
by the United States Marine Band.
He smiled broadly and frequently
raised his hat in response to cheers as
he marched along, escorted by Secre-
tary Tumulty the White House en-
ployes and the White House newspaper
corps.
Ideal weather favored the demon
stration. There was hardly a cloud
liz the sky and the air was cool. En-
thusiastic crowds thronged along the
avenue from Peace Monument to the
White House.
In front of the White House the
President left the line of march and
took his place IN a stand to review

Bryan Weeps with Emotion


William j. Bryan, as newspaper
correspondent in the press stand, wept
with emotion as Glynn pictured the
Victories of peace, but he laughed with
the crowd when a Texas delegate, in
terrupting Glynn, leaped from his chair
and cried: And don't forget that poll
cy also is satisfactory to William Jen
nings Bryan
Aside from a 16-minute demonstra-
ton which began when Chairman
Glynn predicted President Wilson's re-
election. Giynn's speech was sprinkled
with demonstrations which he
found it difficult to stem so that he
could go on 1t was plain that the tell
ing points on the delegates were the
recital of President Wilson's efforts to
keep the country at peace.
This policy he said. may not sat-
isfy the fire-eater and the swashbuck-
Ter But it does satisfy the mothers Of
the land at whose heart and tireside
no jingoistic war has placed an empty
chair. 1t does satisfy the daughters of
this land, from whom buster and brag
have sent no living brother to the dis
solution of the grave. 1t does satisfy
the fathers of this land and the sons
of the land, who will fight for our flag
and die for our flag when reason
primes the rifle, when honor draws the
sword, and when justice breathes a
blessing on the standard they up
hold" The last of the words were
drowned out in a roar of applause that
swept the convention.
Repeat it," cried the delegates, re
peat it"
All right, oe quiet and I'll repeat it,
responded Glynn. and he did to ap-
plause and cheering.
When National Chairman McCombs
called the convention to order 1900
delegates, alternates and spectators
packed the convention to the roof.
Vice Presidential booms wilted by Pres
ident Wilson'S direct word that he desired
the denomination of Vice President Mar
shall were brought to the convention hall
but only as favorite son compliments.
Fight Talk Is Done
All prospect of a fight in the convention
had vanished over night with William j.
Bryan's announcement that he did not
propose to press certain planks before
the resolutions committee and that he
would make speeches for the Democratic
nominees.
Immediately after the prayer Chairman
McCombs delivered a brief address.
The first great demonstration greeted
Mr. McCombs' declarations The elepha Mt
is dead. the moose is dead. Long live the
American eagle"
