Bay State Republicans
Urged to Decry La Toilette

BOSTON. Oct. 3.-"The Boston Tran
script" to-day in an editorial suggested
that the Republican state convention
Saturday pass resolution asking SEN
ators Lodge and Weeks 10. move the
expulsion of Senator La Toilette from
the Republican caucus.
Pointing out that the honor of the
Senate is involved, the Transcript re-
Dukes those Senators who are trying
TO suppress action on La Toilette. IL
says that the coming convention un-
doubtedly will approve the work OF
Lodge and Weeks and that it would be
inconsistent not to disapprov La Fol-
lette. 1t continues: -... ,.
"If La Toilette is Republican in
good standing, then Lodge and Weeks
are not. A resolution requesting the
Senators from Massachusetts, to move
the expulsion of La Toilette from their
caucus has only to be introduced at
Springfield, as we believe, to be adopted
Overwhelmingly. Once adopted il would
be sent to Washington, and would set
ir motion machinery which would at
least line up the Republicans Of the
Senate in such a way that the nation
could find out whether the party Of
Lincoln has degenerated into refuge
for shadow Huns or remains true to
the tenets of its faith and the ideals
of the founder.
LET Massachusetts, lead in repudiat-
ing La Toilette as Republican and the
Republicans of the Senate will not be
slow { ofollow."

Argentine President
Denies War Speech

Ernesto c. Perez, Argentine Consul
General in this city. yesterday sent the
following letter TO the New York news
papers:
"In compliance with official instruc-
tons, which have just received, beg
to inform you that his excellency the
President Of the Argentine Republic
has denied absolutely the declarations
with regard to international affairs
which are attributed TO HIM in tele-
grams from Buenos Ayres, and which
have been published in the press of
New York, as they are entirely false"
What was alleged TO be a special dis
patch from Buenos Ayres on October
stated that President lrigoyen had told
a delegation from a mass meeting that:
al we go TO war we should not be
satisfied with the attitude now observed
by Brazil. We must not be rear guard
TO the United States, but assume
leading role of our own. act on our
own initiative and prove worthy of our
prestige"
President lrigoyen was also reported
as saying that Argentina should not
enter the war over the Luxburg incl
dent. but rather on the grounds Of hu-
mainly and justice. To this end he
was reported TO have proposed q South
American congress which fwould take
Joint action.

War, Says McAdoo
Kaiser's Edict Meant End
of Foreign Trade and Dis
aster, Asserts Secretary

MADISON, Wis, Oct. S.-Speaking
before the bankers of Madison to-day,
Secretary McAdoo reviewed the effect
of Germany's submarine campaign and
how il has hampered American indus
try.
ION the material side the disaster
which would have followed submission
to the war zone order of Germany is
most striking" declared Secretary Nc
Adoo. "The kaiser's order forbade our
ships from carrying our people and our
commerce TO Great Britain, France and
Italy. Our prosperity and our welfare
as a people are inseparably connected
with our right of free and unmolested
intercourse with those nations.
"In the fiscal year of 1917 our total
exports to Great Britain, France, Bel
GUM and Italy were $3,457 100000 in
round numbers. In 1916 they were 49,
247, 200 in round numbers. Our
exports TO those countries constitute
more than half of our export trade
with the entire world.
"If we are denied a market for them
these farm products would rot or go TO
waste on our soil. The production OF
our mines and our factories would be
greatly reduced. Labor would be thrown
out of employment. Stagnation OF In
dustry would result and suffering and
want would stalk throughout the land
"0ur production has always exceeded
the home demand, and If we are denied
foreign markets and attempt TO sell
the whole of our products at home the
result would be demoralized prices
with returns far below cost of produc-
ton and a consequent injury to every
man, woman and child in America. No
one more than our farmers would be so
injured in obedience 10 the kalser's
order. while our export trade would be
destroyed, our export trade would dis
appear.
"Certain imports are essential TO our
life and existence. We must have
them, and we cannot submit 10 any
tyrant who forbids us TO sail on the
high seas in the peaceful pursuit of
our legitimate interests and in the un-
molested enjoyment of the rights we
won By the blood and courage of our
ancestors.
"If We had yielded to this insolent
order, signed by the Kaiser in Berlin,
he would have destroyed by one stroke
of his pen more than $1,000 100000 Of
our commerce, and American vessels
and American citizens would have been
excluded from all intercourse with
Great Britain. France and Italy.
"By one stroke OF the Kaiser's pen
he would have accomplished more de-
struction on our farms. in our factories.
in our mines, than he could achieve
with all the armies and nayies of the
German Empire. 1t was a monstrous
edict and it would be a monstrous
thing for America 70 submit 70 H."

Committee Decides 1t Has
Power to Consider Sc
dition Charges
Will Examine Speech
Republican State Committee
of Wisconsin Sends Petit :
ton for Expulsion

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-The Senate
Committee on Privileges and Elections
began consideration to-day OF. the nu-
merous petitions for the expulsion oil
Senator La Toilette, Of Wisconsin,
from the Senate.
Having determined by precedeDts
that action upon the petitions IS with
in its prerogatives, the committee ad-
journed until tomorrow, when 1t Will
examine the speech Senator La FOL
lette made before the Non-Partisan
League convention in St. Paul.
1t was because Of this speech that
the Minnesota Public Safety Commits
sion petitioned the Senate to expel La
Toilette as teacher of disloyalty
and sedition, giving aid and comfort to
our enemies and hindering the govern
ment in the conduct Of the war"
Senator La Toilette has stopped
talking since the storm broke over his
head, but it would cause no surprise
II he were to burst forth in the Senate
in defence of himself, possibly AS a
finale to the adjournment of the ses-
sion next Saturday.
When the Senate committee met, the
question OF the propriety of consider
ing the case without actually having be-
fore il formal resolution OF expulsion
was raised by Senator Reed, Of Mis-
souri,. He contended that the commit
tee had no right 20 discuss the case
on the basis of petitions and memorials
from persons not members of the Sem
ate.
As n precedent the case involving the
seat of Senator Reed Smoot, Of Utah,
was cited by Senator Pomerene, chair
man of the committee, and others to
show that it was proper for the COM
mittee to act without formal resolu-
ton. In the Smoot case the Privileges
and Elections Committee, after consid-
ering evidence offered by outside per
sons. formally offered resolution call
ing for the expulsion of Senator Smoot.
and the Senate acted adversely on this
resolution.
Chairman Pomerene has received sew
eral hundred letters and kilograms de-
manding the expulsion of Senator La
Toilette.
W. b. Henemann, chairman of the
executive committee of the Wisconsin
Republican State Central Committee,
wrote:
"As chairman of the executive COM
mttee of the Republican State Central
Committee, which organization was
largely responsible for Senator La Fol
lette's reelection last fall, and all mem
bers of this committee concurring, ex-
crpt two, who have enlisted and are in

Assistant Bishop Cohalan is a cousin
