have served to give pause to the legis-
lators:
The empowering bill" by which
peace time laws could be smashed by
the president at will in his plan to CO.
ordinate and speed up the different
bureaus and departments.
The McAdoo war finance corporation
by which the fate of the nations in
dustries would be largely left in the
hands of the secretary of the treasury.
The price fixing bill which places in
the presidents hands drastic powers
of STIMULATING the price for almost all
necessities.
While the senate paused for day
in it's fight over the war departments,
republicans met to discuss party mat
ters.'
One of these party matters, 1t was
strongly limited today, was the atti-
tude the republican senators are to
take either individually or as party,
on the administrations requests for
greater war powers.
Meantime, important legislation Is
being delayed by the long drawn quib'
bles, many Of which are unimportant

VICTIM OF ENEMIES

denounced this persecution in the
strongest possible terms"
Young Nelson, his father said, had
planned to go to the Canada farm
before the United States declared
war and became engaged to a young
lady of the university in August,
1916.
When the university excused its
students to work on farms, Byron
Nelson went to Alberta, to which the
father says he agreed because he
needed someone to manage his farm
there. 1t was when he was married
a few months later that a Wisconsin
paper pointed out he was not regis
tered, the father stated.
Congressman Nelson said he got a
ruling from Provost Marshal General
Crowder that citizens outside the
country need not register and that
his messages to his son were entirely
misinterpreted by secret service
agents, whom he intimates were
spurred on by politicians Nck
home
Since the affair two of my most
severe critics have announced their
candidates. for my seat in congress,
Nelson asserted.
Defeated in court, my political
foes sought to convey the impression
in the newspapers by announcing
that justice had failed but as the
attorney general has refused to APP
peal the case, the purpose TO hold
this charge over the head in the
courts has failed. Now they come
out in the open, reveal themselves,
their candidates and their false
issues. / shall meet them fearlesSly
on my whole record.
LAS a member of the house,
might have impeached the district
attorney, who being a federal OH
cial, permitted his Office to be used
by others to further their ends This
attorney was by various indirect and
subtle means first induced to swear
out a warrant and then later go be-
fore a grand jury that was influenced
by unfriendly newspaper criticism
and ask for an indictment on con-
spiracy charge. under a distortion of
the facts and an absurd statement of
the law"
