Ii cannot be denied that much Of

the Wilson administration, but on the
other hand a large part Of the for
eigu population is supporting the ad-
mlnistration and Gov. Cox. This is
particularly so with the French pop
ulation, which Is large in New Hamp-
shire, New York city and some OF toe
states that border on the Canadian
line.
The Irish are against the Demo
