Head OF State G.. o. P.
CONTINUED from FIRST Psss'

The declaration Of policy ex-
presses a determination that there
shall be no room in the campaign
for personal or partisan advantage
stemming from the war. 1t further
expresses a singleness of purpose
sin our effort to crush our enc
miles," no matter what issue arises
affecting the state government.
Asking for the support of patrio-
tic citizens only, although claiming
no monopoly on patriotism, the
committee definitely shut the door
to support from subversive ele-
ments. u
The declaration Of policy, ad-
dressed to "The People of the State
of Delaware" follows:
We give our endorsement to the
resolution adopted by the Repub-
lican National Committee in Chi
cago on April 20, 1912.
AS Americans, we recognize that
it is the solemn duty of all of us
to devote our lives, our energy,
and our substance to one purpose
winning the war.
To that end, we pledge our loyal
and vigorous support to the Presi-
dent of the United States = our
elected leader and the Command
er-in-Chief of our armed forces.
We feel that the approaching
election will cause the two-party
system to shine as a symbol
against totalitarianism and the ia
tai one-party SYSTEM. 9'rs'
National Unity First
We place national unity above
partisan politics and are deter
mined that there shall be no room
in the coming campaign for per-
sonal or partisan advantage stem
meing from the war.
To the end that we may preserve
our free institutions, we call upon
all the citizens Of Delaware to
join in a united effort to win the
war and then take our rightful
place in winning the peace.
No matter what issues arise af
fecting the state government, there
can be only singleness of pur-
pose in our effort to crush our enc
mics. In that effort, every man and
woman is at the service of our
country. We all have sacrifices to
make. We all have job to do,
whether in uniform, in the factor
les and on the farms, in civilian
activities relating to the war, or
in the vital function of maintain
ing free government at home.
There is no monopoly on patrio-
tism, and we claim no much mono
poly, but we ask for the support of
patriotic citizens only. We do not
want the support of subversive ell
ements.

D. Wharton, Kent county chairman.
