Wilsons Name in Casualty Lists Stir Agitators Says Lewis

Senator Hamilton Lewis says Republicans and agitators would welcome Wilson casualties to attack his peace plan and mislead European negotiators. He argues the Senate is not involved in Wilson's current peace protocol and that the President has full military authority until a final peace treaty is accepted. The speech criticizes Lodge Knox and others for delaying League of Nations talk and asserts the President acts as commander in chief. In closing he notes Republican satisfaction at Wilson's safe return abroad is unlikely.
