MAY DROP Mann
AS E. 0. P. Chief
Republicans Said to Be En-
barrassed by Pro-German
Stand of House Leader.
DEMOCRATS WILL HELP
Pamphlet Being Prepared for Use in
Attempt to Defeat Representa-
dve-Critcism Is Leveled.

Two strong efforts to cut OF the DO
htlcal career Of James r. Mann, Repub-
ncan leader of the House Of Representa-.
ives, have developed as a result of his
pro-German activities, according to the
Ne" YORK Tribune. One of these efforts
comes from the Democrats, who are hop
ing 10 beat him for reelection to the
House. The other, which is more signif-
can't comes from his former political
friends who plan to prevent his election
as Speaker should the Republicans con-
troll the next House.
Stiu a third move is already under
way 10 prevent the Republican leader
from exercising any unusual power at
the Chicago convention. This last is by
Republicans, who realize that, no matter
who is nominated. whether Roosevelt
Hughes, or Root. the campaign will be
hampered by references to some Of the
interviews and votes by Representative
Mann.
Recalling that the Democratic norni-
nee for the mayoralty of Chicago
Sweitzer, was defeated by an overwbeIno.
ing majority on the German issue. the
Democrats have been wondering IL Mr..
Mann has really appealed to the ma
jority Of his constituents.
Criticism Against Mann.
The Democrats say they have nothing
what the Republican and independent
newspapers have said, and 1t is thought
that there is more than a possibility of
defeating the Republican leader.
The chief criticism against Mr.. Mann
is his remark on the Presidents note TO
Germany following the Join session
when he declared. The fact is that VIII
son is a Scotch Presbyterian and hates
the Dutch"
1t is pointed out that had Mr.. Mann
thrown his admitted influence the other
way on the McLemore resolution. for in
stance. the result would have been that
instead OF 10l. only a handful of Repub-
lean members would have voted to sur
render American rights on the high seas
In the Senate. during the same contro-
versy, the Republican leaders declared
for the protection Of American citizens
everywhere.
Even on the smaller consideration of
mere partisan advantage, the party lead
ers feel that Mr.. Mann and his follow !
ng have played into President Wilson's
hands. and permitted his haIf-hearted |
actions to seem patriotic, while the ac-
knOwledged Republican leader of the |
House voted with the friends Of william |
Jennings Bryan.
