Clem L. Shaver, after which an nouncement was made of the person nel of part of the campaign organi zation. Text of Statement Informing himself regarding the Defense dav matter, tne candidate dictated this statement: "Since my return from the state of Maine I have taken the occasion to inform myself fully concerning the views expressed by the governor of Nebraska in regard to 'Mobilization Day.' "I am surprised at the statements which I see in the press to the ef fect that I am in disagreement with him or that his action has in any way proven an embarrasrment to me. On the contrary, I think that the view expressed by the governor of Nebraska to the erteet that tncre is no necessity at this time to encour age civilians to leave their occupa tions for the purpose of engaging in what would only be a military dem onstration without any practical edu caional effects, is entirely sound. "It is one thing to keep the mili- t.nrv organization of the country in adequate practice; it Is quite anoth er to encourage demonstrations. which can be nothing else, at a time when every energy should be bent getting the world back to peace and to work, calming the prejudices and pc.ssions growing out of the World war. and encouraging fruitful trade and commerce. In all these America should take the lead.' Not a Pacifist At Davis headquarters-, it was stated officially that his statement was not to be construed a3 that of a pacifist. "I believe in military preparation," Mr. Davis said.
