The most difficult work on the six
mile link lies for three-quarters of a
mile on each side of the two tunnels,

FOR WILSON IN 1920
People Will Choose Him Again, Nor
man Mack Predicts.

Richmond, Va, March 15.-That
Woodrow Wilson will be the peoples
choice again in 1920 is the prophecy
of Norman E. Mack. Democratic ma
tiona! chairman from 1908 to 1912,
and National Committeeman from
New York State for 20 years.
Wilson is not a candidate" said
Mr.. Mack, "but such matters are be-
yond his control. There is no doubt
that the public will insist that he be
nominated"
Asked if he thought that Wilson
could be elected third time, Mr..
Mack replied that ''at such a crisis
as this the people are not going to
hold back on account of precedent 3"
He thought the Republican candidate
would be eithe- Senator Harding,
General Pershing or General Wood.
AS to General Pershing's politics,
he expressed the view that the Gen
eral was not much of a partisan and
might find it easy to run as the
standard-bearer of either party with
out any conscientious misgivings.

WOULD RECALL FRANCE
Representative Linthicum Depldres
Fact it Cannot be DOna-State's
Views Not Expressed.

Representative L1nth1cum, OF Mary
land, a member of the House Com
mittee on Foreign Affairs, made pqb
lie yesterday letter which he 4as
sent to DR.. A. r. L. Dohme, OF BRl
timore, in which the Congressman ne
plores the fact that there is pc
means provided by the State whefe
by Senator France could be recallet
because of the deplorable filibustel
which the latter carried on againsl
the league of nations.
The Congressman declares that a
the Senator were up now for elec
ton he would be defeated over
whelmingly, and hopes that "the PEI
pie of Maryland will in some mah-
ner let him know and let the count1J
know that he does not express tbs
best sentiment of our commonwealth
nor the view of our people,"
This letter was written in responsE
to a communication from DR.. Dohn
announcing his support of the Pre-
dents league of-4ettions plan. In "a
swer to this letter Mr.. Linthicum
said:
ct was my extreme pleasure and
advantage to be one of the invited
guests, as a member of the Foreign
Affairs Committee OF the House, at
the dinner and meeting given by the
President upon his return 20 Amer1-
Ca 1 heard the league constitution,
as explained from the lips of the
President. I say without hesitancy
that all the ills advanced by Messrs.
Borah, Knox, Lodge and France
were absolutely wiped out by the ex-
planation of the President, and
though there may be some slight
amendments to the constitution as
formed by the best thinkers of IA
nations, it will certainly. to the best
of my judgment, meet the situation.
I realize there may be some amend
ments, nothing penned by man is per-
haps perfect"
Speaking of Senator France and
his obstructionist tactics, Mr.. Lin
thicum said:
"You have well said this is no time
for politics, nor for the filibuster, but
for a broad vision of the situation
and condition of the world at the
present time. I deplore the fact that
one of the men who has done the
most of the filibustering,an :, and who has
not correctly represented our State
is our own Senator France. II he
were running today he most assured
ly would be defeated by an over
whelming majority. The people OF
Maryland should in some manner let
him know and let the country know
that he does not express the best sem
timent of our commonwealth. nor the
view of our people"
DR.. Dohme's comment upon filibus-
tering at such time as this is as
follows:
The man who can now feel dis
posed to filibuster for advantage and
spend his time and his country's time
and money upon party interest or
partisan advantage is no more fit to
sit in the nations legislature than
the Mexican peon, the Chinese coolie
or the Patagonian. This is a time
in the affairs of men when men IS
souls should look up and rise above
the mediocrities of ordinary things
and conditions and adopt more of the
spirit of Patrick Henry and less OF
the spirit of Tweed and Croker. Big
hearts and great souls are now need
ed in the affairs of men, and human
itarianism, should be their guiding
star
