WHY ROOSEVELT?

Certain of Success With L. r.
More Than That, the Nation
Needs Him in White House.

New York May 8.-One of the or
carnations that is active in pushing
the acknowledgement movement
that is making such progress these
days is the Roosevelt Non-Partisan
League. with headquarters in this city.
IF recently received a letter from
William Hamlin Chi1ds. president of
the American Coal Products company,
that contains a rather convincing
ANALYSIS of the present political stu
alton, and one which points out con-
clusively that Colonel Roosevelt is not
only the man of the hour for the Re
publican party, but also for the ma
ton. This letter follows:
Mr.. Guy Emerson, Secretary,
Roosevelt Partisan League,
- Vanderbilt Avenue, New York
City.
ing me allow my name to be used on
the advisory board of the Roosevelt
Non-Partisan league and enclosing the
names of Republicans and Democrats
who have already consented to serve.
am perfectly willing to aid any
movement that can in any way help
to nominate and elect the only man
that in my judgment can unite the
Republicans, Progressives and indie
pendents and prevent the reelection
of the present administration. No one
man can do very much, but every man
should do his bit.
Before deciding to accept your invi-
tation I made a careful analysis of the
situation as I see it. AS this may be
of interest to you, I give it below:
Man to Lead Republican Party.
The choice of the two national con-
ventions to be held in Chicago in June,
for president of the United States, is
of such momentous Importance to this
nation that every man who has given
the matter close attention and has
formed convictions upon the subject
should express them not only private
1y, but publicly, and at once.
It may be said that I am prejudiced
because I am associated with the Pro-
gressive party, but I was a Republican
for thirty years and did not enroll as
a Progressive until 1918, just prior to
the mayoralty election in this city. AL
though l voted for Theodore Roose-
Welt in 1912, I was not present at any
of the 1912 conventions. and took no
part in the organization of the Pro-
gressive party. 1 believe. therefore,
that I can look upon the matter with
a less biased view than many of those
who were present at the conventions
I am primarily a business man, not
a politician, but 1 am interested in
the study of public policies and in

Full pay while absent; at least as good a position when they return as they are leaving; and the company's s thanks for their readiness to do their dutY-such is the treatment accord ed those employees of the General Roofing Manufacturing company who have been called to serve with the Colors in the National Guard.
 This company, manufacturers of the widely advertised Certain-Teed Pro- duets, has twenty-One sales offices, four factories, and about twenty five warehouses over the country. Off cials at the home office in St. Louis could give no estimate of the num- Der of men in their employ who would be called or what their going would cost the company in continu- ing their salaries although it was thought that this might be a con siderable item.
