all parties that the war be kept ou
Of partisan politics and that partisan
ship be kept out of the war.
Just as in Congress the Republicans
led the fight that made possible thu
passage Of the great war measures, Sc
now the party membership and organ
ization has an immediate, definite wal
task in the accomplishment Of which i
can fully function. ! repeat. let there
be no contest in this country as tf
anything that touches the war except
that contest--who best can serve, whit
most can give.
The success Of the Fourth Libert!
Loan shall be the Republican party'i
supreme motif Of thought and actor
until that objective is attained.
Wherever Republicans are together
BY two or two thousand, il shall be
win-the-war meeting. Just as tn
Republican party's every action at al
times has been and shall be determin
ed solely by how we can contribute
most 10 the wars success, so now GU
every though, and action shall be de
termined entirely by how we ca
make certain and quick over-subscrlr
ton Of the Fourth Liberty Loan.
This is a united coun'rys next mes
