 The republican press of the east belii- ties the situation. The Washington Post, very bitter in this campaign, declares that the action of Borah is simply the action of an individual It adds that Senator Reed and William J. Bryan are not aggressively supporting the demo cratic ticket-if at all
 This argument is quickly answered by the democratic national committee. It is demonstrated, says the committee. that while individual republicans and individual democrats may proceed inde- pendenty of the respective candidates, their reasons cannot be identical.

 Mir. Kahn was born in Germany. This does not argue against sterling Ameri- canism that he displayed during the era of Germany's attempted conquest of the world. It is simply an explanation Of his inherent idea that one nation pre- serves Itself against the encroachments of another nation only by the construc- tion of indestructible military machines

Nc sooner had he reached the city than he reported to the National Press Club, There he lent himself to every other member who approached He was ready to talk. But he confined his remarks to the subject which reposes next his heart.
 He announced his programme as de lineated above. He spoke of errors (which time had demonstrated) in the leg islation of last session establishing the nermanent military system of the United States. He left no doubt in the minds of his auditors but that the next session Of Congress would. in certain vital re- spects b, t,o'iitarv sassin,
