FOR PRESIDENT
Woodrow Wilson
FOR VICE PRESIDENT
Thomas II. Marshall
Why Wilson Should Be Defeated

After n careful examination of Mr..
Hughes criticism of the Wilson hd-
ministration's record, II great eastern
paper submits the following reasons
why Wilson should be defeated:
Because he saved the country from
the calamity of II great railroad strike
by obtaining from Congress legisla-
ton providing for an eight-hour day
for railroad trainnen. with provision
for an investigation of it's workings.
Because he surrendered to the la
Dor organizations by urging the eight
hour day with ten hours pay.
Because he struck "a serious blow
at labor by obtaining for certain rail-
road employees an eight-hour day
with increased wages.
Because he didn't obtain an eight
hour day with increased wages for
all railroad employees.
Because he urged and approved the
federal child labor law.
Because he didn't obtain IL child
labor law in all the states.
revising the Payne-Aldrich tariff law
downward.
Because high protection for Amer
ica's giant industries will be needed
after the war.
Because the unparalleled business
activity and prosperity which Amer
lea enjoys were not brought about by
the right method.
Because some of our prosperity is
due to the war and may disappear in
the future.
Because he stableized finances, en-
larged mercantile credits, prevented
panics and smashed Wall streets
control of money by an imperfect fed
eral reserve act.
Because he maintained American
neutrality and American rights by
appeal to reason instead of force.
Because he kept peace with Eur
opean beiiigerents in the wrong way.
Because he kept peace with Mexico
in the wrong way.
Because he didn't recognize the
assassin and.usurper Huertas
Because he recognized Carranza,
the leader of the Constitutionalists.
Because he interviewed in Mexico.
Because he didn't intervene in Mex
leo.
Because he didn't protect American
lives and property in Mexico.
Because he patrolled the Mexican
border and sent an expedition into
Mexico to protect American life and
property.
Because his method of reviving
Americas shipping was unsatisfac-
tory to the shipping trust.
Because he didn't punish Germany
to the satisfaction of the pro-allies.
Becaust he didn't smash the allies
TO the satisfaction of the pro-Ger-
mans.

idea is expressed in team work;

and hearts, in one united effort
for the care and culture of its
youth, the up.ift Of the COM

its local industries.
We have them IN operation
