HUGHES SILENT AS TO HYPHENATE CHARGE BY PERRY ARNOLD | United Press Staff Correspondent PIKESVIL Ky., Oct. 12.—Re- publican Candidate Hughes is de termined not to make any answer to the charge that he represents the German-American vote. He re- ‘wards himself potentially a pres- ident. He holds it his duty neither by word nor deed to walk into any |trap which shall seem to commit him, a man who y be chosen in November to dictate America’s po- sition toward the world, to any spe- cific course of action with regard |to European poticies. When Hughes disc nd con- |demns the British blacklist, it is further explained it is not with the idea of any animus against Great | Britain. When he hits at the sub- marine warfare and the Wilson ad- |ministration’s handling of that is sue, he does not speak with a mind biased against Germany while Mrs. Rossi was in Cali- fornia, ostensibly seeking health and freedom from her craving for liquor, Evide showed that she really bec: more addicted to the habit, but the more she was under the in- fluence of liquor, the rosier were her letters to Rossi and the more endearing her expres- sions of affection.
