REPUBLICANS ARE
 CALLED TO LABOR

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-The asser- tion that "there has not been a time in many years when 1t has been more important for the republicans to gain control of the house of representa- tives." was made today by William R. Wilcox, chairman of the republi- can national committee, in a state ment announcing the purpose of the committee meeting at St. Louis on February 12.
 The importance of the economic questions that will come up for solu- tion at the close of the war. or even before, can not be overstated," he said. "The history of the nation in the last sixty years shows that the democratic party has never shown competence. particularly in a crisis. in dealing with great economic ques- tions of the country. National unity should be the watchword all along the line. This does not mean that there should be any slackening of the efforts of republicans to elect con- gressmen and senators in the fall cleo tions. The republican party stands for fealty to the government as no other political organization ever did or can."

A BRITISH PORT, Oct. 9--German
prisoners captured in the recent fight
ing, who have arrived here, show a
surprising depreciation of the once

traded his decoration for cigarette
and an American officer who accom-

Emperor William.
A marked change in the demeanor
Of the new prisoners was also notice
ale. Instead of the arrogant and al
most insolent manner which charac-
terized their predecessors, when the
Germans were sweeping everything
before them, the latest contingent
seems humble and crestfallen. Al
most every officer and one in ten Of
the men wore the ribbon of the Iron
Cross.
