PRESIDENT IS GIVEN I
UNRESIRVED SUPPORT!
WASHINGTON, Saturday, February 3—One of the
first to hear the news of President Wilson’s action in cut
ting olf relations with Germany was Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge, a Republican member of the foreign relations com- j
mittee, and he he shouted: •
“Can that be true? 1 did not believe the president)
would do it. 1 thought there would be another note. I:
am with him to the end,” and the senator pounded his,
desk emphatically. After a moment s hesitation he added,
-now we had better see to it that our marines prevent the
dismantling of any more German ships now in our liar-,
hors.” . i
Senator Tillman, of the naval committee, said:
“I am mightv glad the president took a fiuu stand.
1 was in favor from the first, after hearing that note of
telling Mr. Bernstorff to pack up his duds and go home to j
his barbarians. We will do the best we can anil 1 have no
doubt that we will live up to our past record ol takijig care
t f ourselves. , , •
“We don’t take any passes from anybody to go any
where we please on the high seas. Congress ought to un-1
animiously agree to back up the president to the limit like;
we did McKinley.”
Vice-President Marshall said: j
“It is sincerely hoped that this necessary break will
not drag the United States into war. There are limits,
however, to endurance beyond which no self lespccting
nation can go. , _ „ .. , j
“This government cannot permit defiance ol all tne
laws of civilization by any nation to pass unchallenged.”
Former President fait said in an address, that the
American people will back, both the President and con
gress and “may God give them deliverance."
Former Secretary of State Bryan said:
“The United States, whatever her course may be,
must not be led to join hands with the allies
