' - ' ' - ' M'GREW SAYS HE WAS MISQUOTEDJY SLOAN Omaha Banker Declares Ne braska Congressman Should -Stand on Record and Not Befoozle Voters. C F. McGrew, Omaha banker, de fends the position he took in his com munication to The Bee on "How the Kaiser Would Vote." Congressman Sloan is charged by the banker with having misquoted him in the Congressional Record. With reference to the special dispatch in The Sunday Bee from its Wash ington correspondent setting forth Congressman Sloan's remarks, Banker McGfew saW: ' "It reminds me of the saying, 'It is the wounded bird that flutters.' "Mr. Sloan first flagrantly mis quotes from my article and then pro ceeds with gusto to demolish the straw man lie erected. I did not say that he voted with the kaiser on all the questions submitted, but did say, 'At times he voted as the kaiser would votc.'and that statement stands. "While 1 wrote the article men tioned in all seriousness, I was too modest to assume that it woulcj ever reach the dignity of being, placed in the Congressional Record, giving it the still wider publicity to which Mr. Sloan so strenuously objects. No Lese Majeste in U. S. "So far as I know Mr. Sloan is the first American statesman, of any de gree, to say that a citizen who criti cizes the public acts of a public of ficial may be charged with slander and libel. He evidently forgets that for the destruction of the very thought that gave birth to his re mark, the whole civilized world is now at war. We have no law of 'lese majeste' in America. "If Mr. Sloan desires to stand on his record, let him publish it all and his constituents can judge for them selves. It is too late in the day to be foozle the voters by loudly declaim ing that a member voted for a certain measure, which he may have done on its final passage, when it was certain to pass, having in the meantime used every effort to defeat it. "The trouble with Mr. Sloan seems to be that he is such a partisan re publican (and I plead guilty of being equally as partisan a member of the same party) that he thought it would be "good , politics" to oppose any measures submitted by a democratic administration. But the time is here when local party differences must be forgotten and a united front presented to the common enemy. Mr. aloair-further intimates that V might be better employed than in criticizing his record. Be that as it may, I will say for his benefit though I had no intention of publishing it, that some days ago I tendered mv entire time and services to Hebert C. Hoover, food administrator, subicct to his orders, without the expectation of any reward or hope thereof, but simply to do my bit tor the good of the country. "Not being personally acquainted with Mr. Hoover I took the liberty to refer him. among others, to Mr. Sloan as to my capability, and I am sure Mr. Sloan will speak very kindly of me in that direction, even if he does object to my criticism." Mother Stands By, to See Germans, Shoot Daughter Geneva, May 28. (Via Paris.) La Suisse today prints details of a case similar to that of Miss Edith Cavelle, the English nurse, who was executed by the Germans in Brussels in October, 1915. The Germans, says women, Mme. Pfeister and her daugh ter, aged il years, on the bwiss-Alsa- tian frontier. They were charged with acting as spies. - The women promptly, admitted at the trial that they had smuggled let ters without knowing their contents, from Alsatian families to relatives in Switzerland. This was done simply as a friendly act and without political purposes. Both women, say La Suisse, were shot at Mulhausen. The mother was a horrified witness of the execution of her daughter before her turn came. Germans Deny U -Boats Recently Sent Across to American Waters Berlin (Via London), May 28.

Filipinos Ready to Take Up Arms for Uncle Sam "The loyalty of the Filipinos is un questioned," said James J.

This station is in Manila bay, where Admiral Dewey won his great victory.
