BARS SOCIALIST
CANDIDATE FROM
TRAINING CAMP

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-Maj- Gen. ].
1rnnklfn Bell commander OF Camp
Upton, where the drafted men from
New York city are in training, re-
fused yesterday to permit Morris Hill
cult, the Socialist candidate, to mako
. campaign speech at the camp. This
announcement was made by the So
atahst candidate himself, who issued
the following 5tatement: ..- r.
ct am sorry that General Bell saw
fit to refuse me permission to ad-
dress the men in Camp Upton. The
Socialist party has a message for
the drafted men. It is the onlysparty
that recognizes, to the full extent,
the public duty resting upon the na-
tionaI and city government to take
care of the families of the soldiers
By q substantial reduction in the food
prices and the cost of other neces-
sariss of life q Socialist administra-
tion would enable the families Of the
drafted men to maintain a better
existence under scanty allowances
and thus ease the minds of the SOL
disrs while they ere stalking their
lives in the service Of the. country.
'It Is particularly regrettable that
General Bell shVuld have refused a
hearing to the Socialist candidate in
this campaign after having publicly
announced that he would allow all
party candidates to address the SOL
diers in Camp Upton By refusing
bearing to one candidate and grant
q = t. farr
an undue political advantage of his
position of military authority.
"I wanted to speak to the boys at
Camp Upton not only because my can
didacy is as important to them as it is
to the civilian voters of this city, but
also because my election would con-
tribute substantial encouragement to
the growing forces OF struggling de-
mocracy In Germany and thereby tend
to bring the war to a speedy and sat
isfactory termination"
