Big Republican Meeting Here
Before Primaries.
One Late in May and Another
Some Time in June.
MAKE TROUBLE FOR BOURBONS
Inject Pep and Steam Into
Summer Campaign.
Party Unity and Organization
Object of New Rallies.

At least two state wide Republican
meetings are to be held in Kansas be-
fore the August primaries, according
to a statement today by r. ]: Hopkins
of Garden City, provisional chairman
of the Republican state committee.
One of the meetings will be held in
Topeka late in May or early in June
when Will H. Hays, national chair
man, comes to Topeka for a confer
ence with state leaders. The location
of the second meeting has not been
determined.
While the state wide meetings are
assured by Hopkins, he is also plan
ming to start a new brand of trouble
for the Democrats in the Fourth, Fifth,
Sixth, Seventh and Eighth districts. 1t
is Hopkins plan to hold monster Re-
publican rallies in every congressional
district presided over by a Democrat.
The purpose of the meetings is to in
ject into party workers a new brand of
pep and steam which will carry the
party over the line in the November
election.
Party organization and unity will be
the objects. of Hopkins in the cam
paiSn. He believes the proper time
to iron out the factiona1 troubles and
differences in the party is in advance
of the primaries. For that reason a
party rallies may be held at central
points in various congressional dis
tricts
Big Rally in Topeka.
Plans for the first big statewide
rally in Topeka are now being worked
out by Hopkins. He will announce
the date of the meeting as soon as
Chairman Hays informs him as to the
time of his visit to Kansas.
A second statewide rally may be
held later in the primary campaign
in Wichita or Hutchinson and a third
meeting may be called for Fort Scott,
Pittsburg, Chanute or independence.
1t is almost certain that at least one
meeting will be held in the south
eastern section of the state, while
meetings are already being planned
for the Sixth and Seventh districts in
the extreme western half of the state.
The Republicans can elect a solid
delegation to Washington with proper
organization" said Hopkins. 1t is the
provisional chairman's opinion that
the president is surrounded by too
many pacifists in congress and in the
cabinet. I'VE need wave of public
sentiment in the form of Republican
congressmen to convince him that
America intends to fight to a finish,
said Hopkins, land the sooner the
United States government gets eff
cient men at the head of the war and
supply departments to get the sol
diers and supplies to France, the
sooner will Germany sue for a peace
that will be everlasting"
