sen. BGRAH DEFENDS
PRESIDENT WILSON

Baltimore. Jan. Ex-senator William
A. Borah in an address to an immense
Patriotic Defense League meeting IN
the Academy of Music this afternoon
vigorously defended President WILSON'S
administration and Congress against
what he termed the wild criticism" OF
some men, who, he said could not Tor
get partisanship but whose real inten-
ton was to get at the bottom OF some
of the mistakes that have been MADE
in the preparations for war. He said:
There are few men in these cru
cial times who are unable to forget
their partisanship. but they must not
be taken too seriously for let me as
sure you that, as whole, Congress
is straining every nerve and spending
days and weeks in energy in the great
task Of turning a peace loving nation
into a fighting machine and doing ev-
erything in its power to put the ma
ton on its strongest fighting basis.
beg of you not TO judge Congress
by the few who criticize. The process
of transformation is a big one and in
order for no mistakes to have been
made the administration would have
to be divine.
