WHY | AN GOING TO VOTE FOR
PRESIDENT WILSON =
BY Eugene ManIoVe Rhodes
(Author of Good Men and True"
1.-THE. Desire of the Moth" etc.
FOR WILSON, BECAUSE
1. Peace, neutrality; Mr.. Wilson
has held us to these single-handed,
unfinching. At no time has he set
his face to any other goal.
2. With instructions from US to re-
wise the tariff downward, he has CIV
en- us downward revision of the tariff.
8. Leadership and legislation on
income tax, child labor, banking and
currency, rural credits, vocational
training for our enlisted men, and
other measures (past and to Gomez,
in line with these.
4. Because for such progressive
and constructive legislation he OBJ
tains support from the opposition
more notably than any other leader
in our history. He is president of
the United States and not president
of a political party.
5. Because when Wilson stUmbles
he stumbles forward; when he
breaks his harness he breaks a trace
and not the breeding.
