governments.
Tho President feels that it is also
his duty to add that neither tho gov
eminent of the United States nor, no
is quite sure, the government with
which the government of the United
States is associated as bolligcront
Will consent to consider an armist,cc
so long as the armed forces of Ger
many continues the illegal and in
humane practices which they still
persist in
AT the very time that The German
government approaches the govern
ment of the United States with pro
posals of peace its submarines arc cn
gagged in sinking passenger ships at
sea and not the ships alone bur the
very boats in which their passengers
ana crews seek TO make their way
TO safety; and in their present enforc-
cd withdrawal from Flanders and
France the German armies are pur
suing course of wanton destruction
which has always been regarded as
III direct violation of the rules and
practices OF civilized warfare. Cities
and villages, If not destroyed arc be
ing stripped of all they contain not
only but often OF their very inhabi-
tantS.
The nations associated against Ger
many cannot be expected to agree to
Il cessation Of arms while acts of in
humanity, spoilation and desolation
are being continued which they Just
~ look upon with horror and with
burning hearts.
1t is necessary also in order that
there may be no possibility of mis-
understanding, that the President
should very Solcmnly call the attcn
ton OF the government Of Germany
to the language" and plain intent OF
one Of the terms of peace which the
German government has now accept
ed. 1t Is contained in tho address OF
the President delivered at Mount Yer
non Oh the Fourth of July last.
1t is rs follows: ''Thc destruction
of every arbitrary power anywhere
that can separately secretly and OF
it's single choice disturb the peace OF
tho world; or IL it cannot be present
ly destroyed ut least It's reduction to
virtual imp0tcncy."
The power which has hitherto con
trollcd the German nation is of the
sort here described. 1t is within the
cnOicc OIL the German nation to alter
it. The Presidents words just quoted
naturally constitute condition pre-
ccdcnt to peace, If peace is to come
Ivy the action OF tho German people
themselves. The President feels bound
to say that the whole process of peace
will in his Judgment, depend upon
the definitcncss and the satisfactory
character Of the guarantees which
can he given in this fundamental mat
tor. 1t is Indispensable that the gov
crnmcnts associated against Germany
should know beyond u preadvcnture
with whom they are dealing.
Tho President will make q separate
reply to the royal and imperial gov
ernmcnt Of Austria-Hungary.
Accept, sir, tho renwed assurances
Of my high consideration.

THE APPEAL TO DEMOCRATS.

Following is the Presidents ap-
peal:
My fellow countrymen: The con-
grcssional elections are at hand. They
occur in the most critical period our
country has ever faced or is likely
to face in our time. If you have ap,
proved of my leadership and wish mo
to continue to be your unembarrass-
cd spokesman in affairs at home and
abroad, I earnestly beg that you will
express yourselves Enthusiastically to
that effect by returning a Democratic
majority to both the Senate and the
House OF Representatives
am your servant and Will accept
your Judgment without cayil, but my
power to administer the great task
assigned me by the Constitution
would be seriously impaired Should
your Judgment be adverse, and I
must frankly tell you so because SO
many critical issues depend upon your
verdict No scruplc Of taste OF speak
ing the plain truth.
WOULD DIVIDE LEADERSHIP"
have no thought of suggesting
that any political party IS paramount
in matters Of patriotism. feel toe
deeply the sacrifices which have been
made in this war by all our citizens
irrespective of party affiliations to
harbor such an idea. I mean only
that the difficulties and dclicacies OF
our present task are Of a sort tina,
IL I'M 1,n,
tho nation should give It's undivided
support to the government under q
unified leadership and that a fropubl
, can Congress would divide the lead
crship.
The leaders OF the minority in the
present Congress have unqucstionably
been pro-war, but they have been ant!
administration. At almost every turr
since We entered tho war they have
sought to take tho choice of policy
and the conduct of the war out OF
my hands and put 1T under the cor
troll OF instrumcntalitics of thor owr
choosing.
This is no time either for divided
council or divided leadership. Unity
or command is as necessary now ir
civil action as it is upon the field OF
battle. II the control OF tho House
and the Senate should be taken away
from tho party now in power an op
posing majority could assume contro
Of legislation and oblige all action t.
be taken amidst contest and obstrut
ton.

ACCEPTED AS COMPREHENSIVE.

The formal statement issued by Re
publican leaders was accepted by
every Republican member CT the Sen
alto and House as a conclusive answer
to the Presidents letter.
Upon the issues as made up In the
text Of the two documents Iaepubli-
cans said last night they were con
tent to go to the country in tho cleo
tions next month confident that the
voters would exercise their individ-
ual Judgment as to how they should
cast their ballots.
Republican leaders pointed to the
Presidents "politics Is adjourned"
statement in his address to Congress
on May 81, when ne asked Congress
to remain in Washington through tho
summer and revise the war rovcnue
bill.
OPINION OF G. O. P. LEADERS.
It was in that address that tho
President said:
politics is adjourned. The election
will go to those who think least of
it; to those who go to the constitu-
cncies without explanation or excuse
with q plain record OF duty. faithfully
and disinterestcdly performed. I, for
one, am always confident that the
people of this country will give a
just verdict upon the service Of tho
men who act for them when the facts
are such that no man can disguise
or conceal them.
"rhcre is no danger OF deceit now.
An intense and pitless light beats
upon every man and every action in
this tragic plot of war that is now
upon the stage. **"I have admired
the work Of this session. The way in
which the two houses of Congress
have cooperated with the Executive
has been generous and admirable.

THE REPUBLICANS ItETORT.
The statement issued by Rcpubli.
can leaders i'll Congress follows:

Sometime ago the President said
"politics is adjourned" Now, in the
closing days OF the campaign-delay
ed by tho united efforts OF all parties
for the liberty loan-now, when all
public meetings have been given up
owing to the influenza epidemic, the
President sends out direct party
appeal calling upon his countrymcn
to vote for Democrats because they
are Democrats without any reference
to whether such Democrats have been
or are in favor Of war measures, and
have war record which deserves sup
port.
The voters of Michigan, to take a
single example arc called upon to sup
port Mr.. Henry Ford-notorious for
the advocacy of peace at any price
for his contemptuous illusions to the
flag, for the exemption OF his son
from military service-on the sole
ground that he will blindly support
the President. The President Is quite
ready to admit that Republicans arc
loyal enough to fight and die, as they
are doing by tho thousands. loyal
enough to take up great loans and
pay enormous taxes; loyal enough to
furnish important men at no salary
on some OF the great war boards in
Washington. But they are not loyal
enough in the Presidents opinion to
be trusted with any share in the gov
eminent OF the country or legisla-
ton for it.
PURPOSES IN THE HOUSE.
If the Pepnblican party controls
the House we can point out some of
the things they will do. They will
replace Mr.. Dent of Alabama ut the
head Of the military affairs commit
tee with Mr.. julius Kahn, to whom
the administration was obliged to turn
carry The first draft bill against Mr..
Dents opposition.
They will put a Republican at tho
head Of the ways and means com
mittce as leader Of the House instead
Of Mr.. Kitchin, OF North Carolina.
who voted against the war. They will
give the country a Speaker who did
not oppose and would not oppose q
! draft bill, and would never say, as
Speaker Clark said, that "th<Se
is pcrcious little difference between
n conscript and convict"
Although the Republicans of the
| House are In tho minority, they cast
more actual votes on seven great war
measures than tho Democratic ma
| jority was able to do.

BELIEVE THIS CITY
SHOULD Be A STOP

SAN DIEGO, Cal, Dec. 1O.-Exten-
sive preparations for aerial mail serv-
ice to all parts of the United States
from San Diego, are being made by
the war department.
Air mapping operations, now well
under way, will be amplified early next
week, when a second air squadron will
leave Rockwell field for a flight to
Needles and return.
Authority for the flight has been
received from the war department
The next air mapping operation to
be carried out by the Rockewll field
airmen probably will be into the states
of Utah, wyoming and Nevada.
No authority for making flights into
this territory has yet been given by
the director of military aeronautics, al
though notification of the desire of the
war department to chart those states
has been received.
Officials of Rockwell field today de-
clared that while they could not state
officially that Calexico and Phoenix
would be designated stops for aerial
mail carriers, bound to and from Ell
Paso and San Diego, they believe that
these two cities should be included in
the list of stops.

MARSHALL PRES|DES
s|MASHES PRECEDENT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. - Vice
President Marshall presided over to-
days cabinet meeting, at the request
of President Wilson, who is en- route
to Europe, and set, according to the
White House staff, a preced1t in the
conduct of American executive af-
fairs. No other vice president, so far
as the record shows, ever presided at q
cabinet session.
In taking his seat, Marshall set at
rest any theories that he might be
acting as president. He said he was
attending the gathering informally
and impersonally, not undertaking to
exercise any official duty or function .
Before going to the White House,
Mr.. Marshall explained that the presi-
dent, before departing for Europe, had
asked him to preside at the cabinet
meetings, and had repeated the request
by wireless from the George Washing
ton. Mr.. Marshall made it plain that
he had no idea of exercising the func-
tions of the president.
No business requiring the attention
of the president developed at the cabi-
net session, it was said, and the wire
less carried no message from it to the
presidential ship.
The cabinet meeting today was the
last which Secretary McAdoo will at
tend, as he will be succeeded next
Monday by Carter Glass. Mr.. McAdoo
bade farewell to members OF the cabi-
net and attaches of the executive of
fices. although he will remain in
Washington until January ] or until
his successor as director general OF
railroads is appointed.
