THOUSANDS PLEDGE - SUPPORT TO NEW
SENATOR'S SPLENDID RECORD OF
SERVICE TO STATE AND
NATION ENDORSED.
ORGANIZING OVER STATE FOR PRIMARIES IN MAY
Thousands of Republicans in all parts-of Indiana have expressed their approval of the record of TUnited States Senator Harry S. New and have pledged themselves to .support the Senator for renomination at the May primaries, according to word recgived here from over the state. Included among those who ‘have pledged their support to Senator New and- ‘who - have endorsed his past record as a member of the United States senate are many former Progressives — farmers, business men, working men; and; in fact, representatives of every class of citizens making up the electorate. : Senator New is regarded as one of the Republican party’s most indis;pensable leaders in the senate and his ‘friends point out that his renomination and re-election are vitally necessary to the party’s success in handling the difficult problems confronting it at Washington, especially in the restoration of national prosperity.

SENATOR HARRY 8. NEW
Senator New and PreSident Harding are close personal friends, the latter fully appreciating the value of Senator New’s advice on national problems. Although he has had several invitations to become a member of the President’s cabinet, Senator New has declined the honor at the urgent request of Republican leaders in the senate who have been closely associated with him, in the shaping of

important Jlegislation. : - Friends of Senator New peoint out that his leadership, coupled with the fact that he is so close in the counsel of the President himself, make him unusually desirable for another term as a senator from Indiana. It is pointed out that Senator New’s quiet, unassuming way has cost him some notoriety, although his service to the state and nation has been of inestimable value, . - : These friends emphasize the fact that Senator New’s ability to co-oper-ate with the national administration with the end of getting highly necessary business transacted ‘is far more needed at this time than is the ‘work of an obstructionist. : Timothy Nicholson of Richmond, Ind., in urging the renomination and re-election of Senator New, said: “Hon. Senator Harry S. New should be renominated in May and re-elected in November as United States senator for another-term. In June, 1864, when President Lincoln was urged to change the commander-in-chief of the Union forces, he replied: ‘lt is not best to swap horses while crossing the river.’ : ¥ ““In morale, industry, economics and politics, our country is still in a turbulént sea, far from port, and needs its experienced crew. By his ability, strong personality and statesmanship, Senator New has attained great influence in the United States senate and with President Harding’and I feel it a duty and a privilege to thus expresg my convictions and judgment.” James W. Ramsey of Washington, Ind., said: ‘“Harry Newtis old enough for me and I suggest that we keep him in the senate until he grows older, This is the sentiment of a veteran of the Civil war who voted for Lincoln in Kentucky in 1860.” ° Thomas Bauer, well-known business man of Lafayette, Ind., in endorsing Senator New’s record, said: “I strongly favor Senator New’s renomination in ‘the May primary. 1 might state many reasons for favoring Senator New but my principal reason for favoring him is due to the fact that during the troublesome times and since, he was one of the senators that was everlastingly on the job. : “I regard Senator New as one who fs a thorough-going Republican and in perfect harmony and accord with -the Harding administration, and if nominated and elected, we have every rea--son to believe that none other could serve and will serve the people of Indiana better than Senator New.” - 'Hundreds of similar endorsements, all praising Senator New’s record as a statesman and «as a thorough-going American and Republican, have been made. Many ex-service men, knowing the senator’s record as a soldier during the Spanish-American war, are backing him for another term in the genate. :
CALLS ATTENTIONTO THE UNWRITTEN LAW
HENRY LANE WILSON POINTS OUT AGE-OLD TRADITION OF - REPUBLICAN PARTY.
PRAISES SENATOR NEW'S ~ RECORD AS STATESMAN
(Written for This Paper by ‘Henry : Lane Wilson.) . (Editor’s Note—Mr. Wilson was appointed Ambassador to Mexico by Taft, and is now in line for appointment as ambassador to Turkey.) I am unequivocally and earnestly for the renomination and re-election of Harry S. New as United States senator from Indiana. I am for New because I know something about his record and history as a man, a Republican and a statesman. I have known the man intimately and well for something like forty years, and in that long stretch of time, I find to his credit many splendid and generous acts,
Party Debt to New
I believe the debt of the Republican party of Indiana to Harry S. New to be very great—perhaps as great as its debt to any other man, for he gave to it unselfish devotion, wise counsel, and energetic action for'the greater part of his life without expecting or demanding any reward. These seryices, however, finally led to his recognition, and he was sent to the United States senate. - - b In that body his record as a statesman {s peculiar, and precisely what might be expected from him. Elected in the midst of the world war, he devoted himself. .with unfaltering zeal to the problenis growing out of the war, and consecrated himself to ‘the great task of securing peace with victory. No senator gave more time, more energy to this great task than Senator New, nor did any senator render more useful services than were rendered by Senator New on the two great committees of the senate—the committee on foreign relations and the committee on military affairs. - " For National Economy ~ln all the great legislation of an economie, political, or moral character which has passed through congress since 1916, and especially .afid e% phatically in all the legislation pass since the advent of the present ad‘minié‘tratlgm, Senator New has borne an active and influential part. e ~ Every measure for national econiomy has received his vote. Every measure for' ‘reduction of public’ expefises or

employes has received his support. Every bit of legislation presented in the interest of our soldiers has received ‘his persistent and zealous espousal. Every single megsure for the betterment of the condition of the farmer has received his unstinted sympathy and support. It hasn’t been necessary for him to go into a farm bloec to vote for the agricultural interests of the State of Indiana. Every business man in Indiana knows that Senator New is not only sound in all matters of legislation affecting their interests, but they will know that his personal services in solving the intricate problems which have grown out of the war have been unreservedly at their. command, and no soldier’s personal affairs, no farmer’s just complaint, has passed unheeded. Is this the sort of man which the Republicans of Indiana ought to Tretire from public office? Is it not true that this is preeisely the type of man we need in public office at this time, and especially in the United States senate? : A : . Solidly Behind Harding Is it not true that what is needed in Washington at this hour more than anything else is political solidarity and loyalty to our .great President: Harding, who is devoting himself Leart and soul to the great task of lightgning the burdens which rest upon the great body of the people? The Republican party had nothing to do with the making of these great burdens—that burden rests upon the shoulders of the present vDemocratic opposition—but it has assumed responsibility for slow But sure reduction in these great burdens—in measures designed to lift the weight off! business, agriculture and labor, and if this great task_is to be accomplished, it must be by an army of politically drilled men, and not by a lot" of masquerading bush-whackers using the livery of the Republican party in serving the aims of its enemies. Every man who has even a dollar at stake in thig country is interested in having there a man of the type of Harry S. New, who can always be depended upon 'to -support the administration in its program for the betterment of the affairs of the nation. ~ “Unwritten Law” of Return It ought also to be remembered that the unbroken tradition of both the Democratic and Republican parties ‘in Indiara has been that a senator who has, during his first term, acquitted himself to the satisfaction of the people and ‘whose integrity is unquestioned shall succeed himself. . This “unwritten law” has been in effect since the organization of the Republican party, and has never been broken. If I am not mistaken, I think this “unwritten law™ of succession,was invoked upon one occasion against a prospective opponent by [email protected] Beveridge, and one of the strongest claims of Senator Beveridge for renomination at that time was based upon this precedent. If the principle were correct then, is it not so now?

Southwest’'s Most Famous Outlaw : Also Shot Unsuspecting. The shooting of the bandit Slaugh‘ter -by Howard, the man to whom Slaughter had given a chance for liberty, parallels somewhat the death of Jesse James, the Southwest's most ‘famous outhw. James, however, was shot by a relative and old friend, while Howard, it is understood, was not a former assoclate of Slaughter. ' With the gradual scattering of the James boys’ band, through relentless actlvities, Jesse James retired to his home at St. Joseph, where for a time he remained undisturbed, his pursuers fearing to follow him. - Bob Ford, cousin of Jesse and one .of the band most intimate with the feared leader, was persuaded by the authorities, it is sald, to shoot down ‘the noted bandit for the promise of immunity and the large rewards offered. ; = Sl s While in apparent friendly conversation with the outlaw leader, Ford shot Jesse in the back as the latter was standing on a chair to adjusten picture-on the wall.

Contractors Erect Structures Worth ~ $722,000,000 in Ten Months. More than $722,000,000 was spent for new buildings in 44 of the- largest cities in the United States during the first ten months of 1921, according to a report of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States. The sum was divided as follows: Residential buildings, $349,000,000; non-residential, $254,000,000; alterations and special construction, $119,000,000, £ ; For the year 1920 the sum reported by the same cities -was only a few million dollars more. This means that the total for the entire year 1921 will probably exceed the sum for 1920. Unemployment in the United States continues to show a steady but slow decrease, says the Departmefit - of Labor. The unemployment situation was greatly relieved by building operations, many of which were begun for that purpose. Highway bullding also gave jobs to a great many men. 2
