THOMPSON OVERSEAS
Kansas Senator to Go on Mission for
the President.

Senator william H. Thompson is
going to France as the personal rep
resentatiee of President Wilson on a
special war mission. 1t is the plan of
Senator Thompson to sail for France
in few days. He will not come to
Kansas during the congressional vaca-
ton and will not participate in the
senatorial primaries.
A telegram from Senator Thompson
this week announced his plan to go
to France Immediately. He has been
commissioned by President Wilson, It
was stated, as personal representative

1t is believed Senator Thompson will
sail some time in the next week with
a company of senators and congress

Another member of the Kansas
delegation to visit the war zone this
summer is Congressman John R.. Con-
nelly OF the Sixth district. He has
been commissioned as one of the
twelve members of the house naval
committee to inspect naval forces
overseas and plan for consideration of

spend a month or six weeks in France.
They will return to the United States

Packing company, refused to divulge
the terms of the contract which has
been offered the local union for sigma
