SAYS WEDEY ADMITTED IT

That Smith Offered Him the Postmastership

EDITOR HELBER TALKS

Maintains That Congressman Smith Said That Wedey Would Accept it

It is now up to Prince Henry of Adrian as Editor Helber has challenged him to tell what's what.

In this week's issue of the Neue Washtenaw Post there appeared the following:

"Wedemeyer has flooded the country with letters announcing his candidacy for congress and denying that he is a candidate for postmaster. This may be true, but Mr. Wedemeyer has admitted that such a proposition had been made him by Mr. Smith and we have the congressman's word for it that Mr. Wedemeyer will accept. Further denials or explanations are now in order."

Mr. Wedemeyer has stated positively to the Argus that he is out for the nomination for congress and he is to be believed.

There is no need of any explanation or denial from Mr. Helber as regards his chances for the postmastership, as he was thrown down and he seems to appreciate it.

But what Ann Arbor would like to know is whether Congressman Smith actually did make the statement that Wedemeyer was going to be the next dispenser of postage stamps.
