Tho method., nilopted by the National

re-election of I'resldent Wllpon, beciuisc
they claimed his policy of permitting
munition shipments to England and
France and hli failure .to keep Ameri
cans off the seas were unneutral, were
exposed at today'M hearing liefore tho
.Senate Judiciary Committee on the reso
lution to rovoks, tho charter granted the
Alliance by Coneiew.
A number of printed Flips of paper,
written In Knsllsh on ono Fide and lcr-
tniin on tho reversi denouncing I'resl
dent Wllon. and uiglng 11 ot for the
Itepubllran ticket, wero presented to the
committee and read by Senator Wllll.ini
It. King, of Utah, chairman of tho sub
committee. These slips were all headed, "Vote the
Jtepuhltcan ticket." They denounced
President Wilton as "a Urltlsh subject"
who had Ignored his oath and relin
quished America's welfaro In favor of
England: said ho should be punished
because lie had conjured up the Know
Nothing spirit In the American people
and encouraged them to Insult German
Americans, and said America wns doing
the dirty work on the seas for England,
The llcv. Dr. H. O. on Hosse, of Phil
adelphia, who succeeded Dr. V". J. Hex
amer, of Philadelphia, ns president of
the German-American Alliance, and
Adolph Timm, of Philadelphia, secretary
pf the organization, were asked by Sena
tor King to examine the slips which the
Senator said had been liberally distrib
uted among the German-Americans
'shortly before the presidential election
of 1916.
"Did your organization odlclally dis
tribute these blips denouncing Presi
dent 'Wilson?" asked Chairman King of
Tlmm and Von Bosse.
"Xo," replied both.

Some of the slips read as follows

spirit anion's our people, whereby

And thereby give tho American
people a chance to assert their rights

LOAN OF BELL AWAITS
COUNCILS' DECISION
Resolution Will BeTaken Up
by Finance Committee
Next Week
The question whether or not to permit
the Government to make use of the
Liberty Bell as a drawing card In the
third Liberty Loan drive, which opens
April b, will bo taken up by members
of Councils' Finance Committee early
net week. As an appropriation nnd
new legislation are needed. It will not
be possible co tender the Government the
bell In time for the opening of the drive.
The resolution lending the relic to the
Government, Introduced by Common
Councilman William M. Lewis, of the
Thirty-second Ward, was held up In Se
lect Council, and on motion of Charles
Seger was referred to the committee.
In the committee there Is a division of
opinion as to the advisability of send
ing the bell on tour, and even If the
pioject Is finally favoied It cannot be
decided upon before the second tegular
meeting of Councils In April.
The provision In the resolution calling
for the appointment of a committee of
ten Councllmen, five from each chamber,
is looked upon as an effort to obtain a
patriotic "Junket" for certain favored
members of tho two branches, and In
tho event of .the Bell finally being ten'
dered tho Government this clause Is
likely to be modified.
Councl.men favoring the resolution
will confer with Mayor Smith before the
qucstlo'j lsalsed In the Flnanco Com
mittee and upon his decision will largely
rest tho fan of the project.

COOKED FOR SOLDIERS
TO BE NEAR HIS SON
Pathetic Story of Sacrifice
Unfolded in Death of
Thomas Boyd
A pathetic story of a father's struggle
to he near his onlj- son, an enlisted man
at Camp Hancock, Augusta, Ga., Is re
vealed In a dispatch lecclved here today
announcing the death of Thomas Ilojd,
dxtj--sevcn jears old, a cook nt the
camp.
Doyd was a widower. He nnd his son,
Robert V, Dojd, lived with relatives at
13G South Fifty-fourth street. A jear
ago the young man enlisted In the First
Regiment, N, G. P., which became the
100th Infantry nt the training camp.
Boyd was unhappy without tho boy
near him. Having served as a cook
with the BrltlBh army In the Boer War
and en one of the Hngllsh roj-al j-achts.
he attempted to enlist In the same unit
ns a cook. He was rejected because
of his age. Lndaunted, he tried several
other branches of the service, hoping
for an ultimate transfer to Camp Han.
cock. Again he was rejected.
Finally he went to the Schuylkill Ar
senal, and, although refused enlistment,
persuaded the officers to retain him as
cook without compensation other than
that which he received from some of the
officers. In this capacity he went with
a unit from the arsenal to Lansdownc,
nnd later reached Camp Hancock.
