Stone be deposed as chairman of the senate committee on foreign relations in favor of a senator whose loyalty to America is beyond question or suspicion, ‘ ] This demand seems to have been born spontaneously and is being Voiced by the leading newspapers in every section of the country. It is pointed out with a unanimity that is most significant that the Safety of the nation may depend upon this chairmanship being held by a man who is in full sympathy with the patriotic sentiment of the vast majority Of American citizens and who has thé courage and desire to support the president in his efforts to defend American lives and ships against submarine icy. al For two years “Gum Shoe Bill” Stone has been consistently persistent in his efforts to ham-string the government of the United States in its diplo- ~ Matic dealings with Germany. h: 4 His final act of treachery in throwing the tremendous influence of his tion on the side of 11 other senators in the shameful filibuster was per- y consistent with his record. ; “There is no doubt that in his senatorial capacity “Gum Shoe Bill” will Continue to give aid and comfort to Germany. But it is unthinkable that he Should be permitted to continue to occupy that position in the senate which Bives him the largest opportunity for harm. We have been asked how the ordinary citizen may help to influence the Senate to depose Stone from the chairmanship. Our suggestion is that you send a telegram, letter or postcard to the sen- ators from this state. Address them by name, “Senate Chamber, Washing- This wording would be proper: “I protest against Stone being con- finved chairman committee foreign relations.” it Men talk of “mere morality,” which is much as if me should say “Poor God, with nobody to help him!"— | 3 o : bes Beginning hens are beginning to lay ; sounds like an inconsequential barnyard it of ws, but it means millions.
