Oct. —In President’s appeal to the of to congress, s of the this statement last evening: “Some time ago the President said | ‘politics is adjourned.’ Now, in the closing days of the campaign—delayed by the united efforts of all parties for the Liberty loan—now,when all public meetings have been given up owing to the influenza epidemic, the Presi dent sends out a direct party appeal calling upoh his countrymen to vote for democrats because they are demo- crats without any reference to wheth- er such democrats have been or are in favor of war measures and have a war record which deserves support. “The voters of Michigan, to take a single example, are caled upon to sup- port Mr. Heary ¥ord, notorious for his advocacy of peace at any price, for his contemptuous allusions to the | flag, for the exemption of his son| from military service on the sole ground that he will blindly support the President. The President is quite ready to admit that reublicans are loval enough to fight and dle, as| they are doing by the thousand loyal enough to take up great loans and pay enormous taxes; loyal enough | to furnish importaat men at no salary | on some of the great war boards in | Washington. But they are not loyat | enough, in the President’s opinion to | be trusted with any share in the gov- ernment of the country or legislation for it. “If the the house answer to the plo majority the peo- for return a democratic | the republican leade: ate and house issued republican party cantrols we can point out some of the things they will do. They will re~ place Mr. Dent of Alabama at the head of the military affairs committee with Mr. Julius Kahn, to whom the admisistration was obliged to turn for assistance to take charge of and carry the first draft bill agaist Mr. Dent's opposition. They will put a republi- can at the head of the ways and means committee, as leader of the house, instead of Mr. Kitchin of North Carolina, who vated against the war. They will give the country a speaker who did not oppose and would never oppose a draft bill and would never say, as Speaker Clark did, that ‘there is precious little difference between a conscript and a convict.' “Although the republicans of the house are in the minority, they cast more actual votes on sevea great war measure than the democratic majority was able to do. What is the recard of the senate? On fifty- one roll calls on war measures be- tween April 6, 1917, and the 29th of May, 1918, the votes cast by republi- cans in favor of such ‘measures were 72 per cent., while ony 67 per cent. of the votes cast on the democatic side were in favor of such measures. Those were the President's own measures. Does that record look as if we had hampered him? The re- publican party in congress has sup- ported the administration policies | since the war with a unanimity and | an absence of criticism unprecedented in party history “There are some domestic questions where we should undoubtedly differ from the course pursned by the Ad-! ministration. We should not for ex- | ample, fix a price on the farmer's wheat and leave the pianter's cotton untouched. Another domestic question in which the republican party believes | thoroughly is economic preparation for the coming of peace, and they are clearly of the opinion that the Con- gress of the United States should not be excluded from that great task. I “This is not the President’s personal war. This is not the war of congress. It is not the war of the democratic or the republican party. Tt is the war of the American people. It is more. It is the war of the United States, of the allied powers, of the civilized world against the barbarism of Germany. In this great burden and responsibilty the republican party, representing more than half of the citizenship of the country, demands its rightful share. with power in either or both hous they will do everything possible drive forward the war and hasten the day of victory. The President speaks of the necessity of telling the plain | truth. That the republican party in control of congress would do. for they have no friends to shield. And they will do more, they will give all the money to the Jast dollar neces to stain our armios and our fleets, but v will check on of the money given by generous people on the face earth “The President speaks of the effect of the election abroad. He saye that | there they understand the meaning of | j election. They do, and they will know that if the republicans have a majori- | ty in congress the war will be pressed with greater vigor than ever before They are quite aware that the power of the senate is President in the Ty the of the ‘ consummation of They will know that an party stands for a vie- peace and the overthrow of Prussian militarism. That knowledge | will not depress the spirit of our allies or encouraga the government of Ger- | many ““The republican party believes that the question of surrender should be left to Marshal Foch, to the generals, and to the armies in the fleld. When they report that Germany has laid down her arms. the United States and the Allles should then impose their terms. Will that knowledge cause de- jection to those who are fighting with us? All the world knows that the rc- publican party is opposed to negotia- tlons and discussion carried on in “If the republican party is intrusted | to | the waste now going | nost | equal to that of the | diplomatic notes addressed to the Ger- man government. The republican party stands for unconditional sur- render. There is no republican creed so short that there is no room in for those two words. “Signed) “HENRY CABOT LODGE, "REED SMOOT, “Chairman Republican Sena- “torial Committee, “FREDERICK H.

A good snappy publicity campaign for the United War Work Drive opening November 11 was planned last night at a meeting of the pub- ‘Heity campaign at the New Rritain National Bank bulilding. Chairman George P. Hart of the general com- mittes and Campaign Director Howard L. Platt were present and outlined the general plan of campaign for the big drive. There are many details yet to be workea out, but the general plan will be to hold noonday lunches at the Elks' club and receive reports. There will also be short speeches in connection with the noon-day meet- ings by men who will represent the different branches of the war work concerned in the campaign It probable that the closing luncheon will be held Monday evening, Novem- ber 18. The committee proposes to put out 19,000 campaign buttons an equal number of window banners, 25 pledge cards, 6,000 posters and 3 lets. Many of the pamphlets will be put out through the schools. It was voted to spend $150 on newspaper advertising in New Britain preliminary to the campaign. A prize committee has bheen which is at work on a scheme of recognition for the teams which Jead in the daily reports at the Elks’ club. It is proposed to introduce some novel features in this campaign, which ha not been tried before in war work drives. Mr. Plat® the campaign di- rector, is resourceful, and he has some | interesting announcements he will make in a few days when the details have been fully worked out. Another meeting of the publici committee will be held next Tuesday evening. Full Page Map.

Pou er died October 10, 1918, at New Britain, Conn. He was born in the City of New Britain on the 11th day of December, 1892, the son of Israel and Fanny Pouzzner. He attended the Elementary Schools of the City of New Britain, graduat- ing from the Grammar School in He was graduated from the Britain High School in 1914. his High School career he vely interested in debating ned prominence as a member the High School Debating Team. He commenced the study of law in the office of his brother-in-law, Mor- ris D. Saxe, in the City of New Brit- ain, and continued the study of law New During | there until in the Fall of 1916 he en- s | tered the law school of Cornell Uni- versity. He passed the baf examina- tion and was admitted ao the bar of the State of Connecticut in December, 1917, He immediately commenced { the practice of law and was associat- ed with Morris D. Saxe at New Brit- ain, Conn., and <o continued until his death. While young he was ambitioned to become a lawyer, and to that end he devoted all his energies of mind and body. He was an earnest and sincere student, sparing himself in no re- spect. In the process, he developed a high type of intellectuality and character, for zeal, scholarship, and ability. Integrity and probity were guiding star as, and he became a trusted confidant of the poor and the illiterate as well as of the busi- ness man. Promptness, accuracy and efficiency, became habitual aptitudes. The legal profession promised much to his young, vearning. striving heart and mind, which an untimely death brought to a lamentable close. He had the respect, estee mand con- his ociates at the bar, and of his friends and acquaintances, in social and public life. He was in- aensely earnest in whatever he under- took and the al which the study and practice of law was like- se given, with increased fervor, to and social benefit of others called by the United States for limited service, and giadly he willed to go.

He was patriotically out- spoken, and his efforts, wherever cast, had a large influence The early passing of Abraham . Pouy “as the morning cloud and the dew,” is a loss regrettable, not only to his family and friends, but to the bar. ao the people of New Bdit- in, and to the State of Connecticut.

In an emerency such as the present epidemic—our duty—and your duty—is to distribute VapoRub in the quickest possibie manner to those sections stricken by Influenza. We, therefore, call your careful attention to the following: DANGER OF SHORTAGE IF SUPPLY IS NOT CONSERVED On October 1st we had on hand at our Factory and in twenty warehouses | scattered over the country, sufficient VapoRub to last us, we thought, until | January 1st, allowing for a 50 per cent. increase over last year's sales, and not counting our daily output. This big excess stock had been accu- mulated during the summer months. Then this epidemic of Spanish In- fluenza hit us—and in the last 10 days this stock has vanished. At first we thought this tremendous demand would last only a few days, but the orders have run: Wed., Oct. 16 Thurs., Oct. 17 Fri, - Oot.. 18 Sat.,, Oct. 19 Mon., Oct. 21 . 77,705 Up to Saturday, October 19th, we have actually shipped for this month $400,284.10, or over two million jars of VapoRub. THE PROBLEM NOW IS TO DISTRIBUTE VAPORUB QUICKLY | Most of this tremendous quantity is still en route to the jobbers, but freight and express are both congested nowada; and it may be some time before this supply reaches the jobbers. meantime, therefore, it v that we distribute, as widely ble, the stock that we are manufacturing daily. together with | that now on the jobbers’ and retailers’ shelves, in order that it may get to the Influenza distriets quickly. Our normal output is about 4,000 deozen per day. We are putting on a night shift, but it will be a little while be- fore that is producing.

NEW WAYS TO USE VAPORUB In addition to the usual method of using VapoRub—that is, applied over the throat and chest and 'covered with, hot flannel cloths—our customers ar. writing us dally telling of their success in using VapoRub in other ways, par- ticularly as a preventive. They melt a little in a spoon and inhale the apors arising, or melt it in a ben- zoin steam kettle. Where the steam kettle is not available, VapoRub ecan be used in an ordinary tea-kettle.
