club, concluding with the statement that
there could be no doubt about Mr.

Mr.. o'Leary gave out tonight the fol-
Lowing:
My purpose in suing Mr.. Mccormick
is to find out first, whether hyphenism
so-called, is libelous, and, second,
whether it is inconsistent with American
ism. I also issue a challenge to let a
jury decide whether or not the President
has enforced Americanism in dealing
with Great Britain.
"A citizens loyalty to his country is
not a proper part of political cam
paign, and, therefore, feel that it is
wrong to assert it politically, because it
strikes at the fundamentals of our citi-
zenship.
What right would Charles E. Hughes
have to repudiate me? What right has
nc to repudiate any voter who would vote
for him? yield to Mr.. Mccormick $
right to support Mr.. Wilson and vote for
Mr.. Wilson, and no matter how faitbless
believe Mr.. Wilson has been in pro-
tecting American lives, property and

was disloyal because he supported Mr.
Wilson and differed from Mr.. Hughes. .
