Bainbridge Colby, Secretary of State in the cabinet of President Woodrow Wilson, in a signed article which appeared in yesterday’s “American,” calls upon the Democratic Party to unite behind the candidacy of Lieutenant Governor Herbert H. Lehman for governor of New York State.

“For the Democratic Party to nominate any other candidate than Lieutenant Governor Lehman to succeed Governor Roosevelt is to repudiate the Roosevelt policies that have won popular confidence for the Democratic party,” he declares.
