'irhiniu'N'iBri.i* Hi BETTER FEELING NEEDED BY NATIOl Time For Passions And Hatreds T Subside?Appeal By McAdoo New York, Nov. 9.?William G McAdoo, former secretary of th treasury, in- a statement tonigh commenting on the result of the ns tional election, declared that "wha the country needs is subsidence o the passions and hatred engender by the war and the partisan appeal that have followed." "It is of no value to try to e> plain the causes of the Democrati defeat November 2," the statemen said. "The overwhelming Republica: victory has given that party th presidency and both houses of th congress. After March 4, next, i will have entire responsibility an can not evade or escape its failur to perform the ^promises it has mad to the country. Under our politics system it is always better to hav one party control at Washingto: than to have divided authority. "What the Country imperativel; needs now is subsidence of the pas sions and hatreds engendered by th war and the partisan political >ap i>eals that have followed. The coun try is sick of political standards am controversies. It wants domestic a well as international peace and i wants restoration of that fina spiri of cooperation which made Americi invincible in war. We face domestic and international problems of grea gravity. The only way to solve then is through cooperation. The highes duty of the leaders of both partie: is, therefore, to promote 'better feel ing among all classes of our people to refrain from unworthy appeals t< class and race prejudice and t< bring to bear upon our serious prob lems that dispassionate and intellj gent consideration through whicl alone there is promise of genuin< public service. "The Democratic party has suffer ed a severe but not a disastrous de feat. It is far from dead; it is no even seriously wounded. Through out our history overwhelming poli ... i i 1 w licai reverseb nave wen xvuvnbu wr, extraordinary political recoveries So long as the Democratic party i true to its mission of service \fi> th common people it will live. What w must do now is to build up an< strengthen the party organizatioi not in the interest of any individuq or group or faction but for th cause of democracy itself. It wil not he difficult, through prope leadership and organization to rein spire party enthusiasm, to restor party unity, to maintain party ideal and principles and to regain popu lar confidence. To this task Demo cratic leaders must now devot themselves with unselfish partiotisn and courage."
