Today -100: October 28, 1918: U.S. stands for Unconditional Surrender as well as for the United States and Uncle Sam


Will Hays, chairman of the RNC, says Woodrow Wilson is calling for the election to Congress of members of his own party because R’s “are for peace through, not without, victory; because  they do not believe lasting peace can be obtained through negotiation; because they consider that U.S. stands for Unconditional Surrender as well as for the United States and Uncle Sam. The Democratic Congress does not. Mr. Wilson does not.”
