Sir:
The language condemned by me in
my talk at the Community Sing, and
concerning which you labor so diligent-

explain" is that portion of your March
Bird editorial reading as follows:
I'VE elected a nOn-military man

war PLATFORM and he led us into
the greatest war in all history.
The most pronounced militarist
could not have done worse than
that
In your later editorial March 1Oth)
you seek to justify the first by quoting
a portion Of the Presidents War Mes
sage.
In your first mentioned editorial YOU
were setting forth the claims to public
favor possessed by various candidates
to be voted for at the Republican Pri-
maries and you used the quoted Ian
guage above mentioned without Qualifi-
cation. It was but natural therefore to
suppose that you meant what you said,
j. e. that "he led us into the greatest
: war in all history and that 1.-THE most
pronounced militarist. could not have
done worse than that: The Language
thus used can be subject to but one con-
struction, namely, that the President,
because of his method or manner of
handling the European War situation,
brought about and upon this country
1.-THE greatest war in all history.
That this was the purpose and intent
of your editorial is further evidenced
by the language you use in your later
editorial where you say: ''Some one
has said that if Theodore Roosevelt had
been President, our entrance into the
war would Hi We been prevented and
lit is possible that a man of greater

With potatoes selling as high as $500
per bushel in the cities, and new pota-
toes at $12 per bushel, the lowly tuber
is surely having it's inning. Many
hotels, and restaurants have discontin-
ued serving potatoes at meals. On the
menus, when served, a price Of IS cents
per dish is often charged. !; Who would
have thought that potatoes, hitherto
the cheapest and most common food of
the poor man, should so soon become q
luxury. Everybody will certainly
plant potatoes this year-if they can
get the seed.

1t seems to me that the testimony of
these German military leaders is more
likely to square with the truth than
your guess.
No, President Wilson did not lead
us into war;. But as the constitutions
al leader of America he guided this
great Nation through the war ably and
successfully. The war was fought and
won because America believes, in the
language of the president, that
''the right is more precious than
peace, and we shall fight for the
