Some Questions For
Senator Andrews.

To The Editor of The Sun:
Sir.-About d month ago, just pri-l
CT to the Republican Congressional
primaries, Mr.. Augustus Ward, of
Crisfield, published a statement in
which he alleged that State Senator
William n. Andrews, of Dorchester
county, then his opponent for the
Republican nomination for Congress,
the solid German vote of Dorchester
county at the 1917 election as the re
suit of statements made by him, An
drews, at meetings held among the
German voters in that campaign.
Mr. Andrews is now the Republi-
can candidate for Congress, opposing
Mr.. Jesse D. Price. 1t seems rather
Significant that while Mr.. Ward later
published a statement to the effect
that he had beer Ea.sinformed about
the matters he had charged in his
any denial. 1t is possible that he
thought the Ward letter would gloss
things over and that the matter
would be forgotten, but in view of
the fact that he is a candidate for
membership in the Congress that is
to successfully prosecute this war,
and to back up our able President, it
seems only right that the voters of
the First Congressional district
should know just exactly what did
take place. If Senator Andrews will
answer the following questions he
will help very much in clearing up
the situation:
Did he attend and address a secret
German meeting upon the same night
that he addressed a meeting at Tay-
lor's Island, the meeting being held
at the home Of a Well-known Ger
man, who lives not many miles from
Cambridge?
Did he, in the midst of a heated
argument, although he is reported
usually to be very cool careful and
deliberate, charge that Woodrow VIII
son and the Democratic party were
responsible for the United States be-
ing at war with Germany, thereby in
lsinuating that Germany had done
nothing to warrant a declaration of
war?
Were those present admonished to
secrecy and did the meeting close
with the singing of the Watch on
The Rhine this, too, notwithstand-
| ing the fact that the United States
had been at war with Germany for
| over six months at that time?
