clearly revealed by Indiana Democratic
managers Some of these partisan argu-

Another Republican canard which the
Indiana Democratic leaders are exploding
Is the assertion of the Republican man
ayers and spellbinders that President WI

aspirations of the people oi that country

report less pronounced feeling among
| voters of this type against the party dur

on the Wilson administration, none OF tn
