Washington, D. C, Sept. 28. De claring that republican control of congress will speed up the prepara tion of the United States for victory over Germany, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, re publican leader in the senate, today gave out the following statement: "I am extremely anxious to see a republican house and a republican senate elected. "I want to see the organization of jhe two houses pass into the hands of th'e republican party. "I urge republican success for one reason, and one reason alone, be cause I believe that it will best pro mote the one great object which I, in common with every patriotic Am erican, has at heart, and that is car rying the war to speedy and contf pjete victory. Will Strengthen Preparation. t "Republican control of , the two Louses will "strengthen preparation end accelerate speed in all the neasures that Jead.to victory. "It will be of great service to have the republican party taking a direct share in the responsibility for the War. They are of one mind as to this war and asto the term of peace. Even as a minority they have never flinched where the ma jority party has weakened. "Without the republicans of the house the first and second draft bills, on which allour success in war rests, could never . have been passed. In control of the organiza tion of house and senate they will be able to drive the war forward with greater energy thin the pre sent majority, because they have no friends in executive office to pro tect and no orders to take from any source except the country's cause. They will tell the truth without fear or favor and nothing can so advance the war as absolute truth in dealing with the American peo ple. Drive on to Victory. "When the tirrte for reconstruc tion come the republican party, which has always been the con structive party, is best adapted for that work; but now at this moment, if they can be given a share as a party in the conduct of the govern ment they wilt drive it forward to victory with an energy and speed not thus far attained. r "To return fence more to the terms of peace, I believe that those which! have ..ventured to outline i are the terms xf peace, and the x kind of peace which all Americans without regard" to party not only desire, but demand. No other terms would be acceptable to the republi- ; can party. Young Sailor Dies at Great Lakes of Spanish Influenza Tecumseh, Neb., Sept. 28. (Spe cial.) Charles C.
