PRESIDENT USES
EMPHATIC WORD
SAYS SENATOR SPENCER MADE
FALSE STATEMENT.
Letter From White House Sets
Forth Denial in Very Piain
Language.
Washington, Oct. 5.?President
Wilson today wrote to Senator Spencer,
Republican, Missouri, that the
statement recently made by the senator
that the president had promised
American military aid to Rumania
and Serbia in the event of the invasion
of those countries, w&s "false."
Senator Spencer's address was delivered
in Missouri and when it was
called to Secretary Tumulty's attention,
Mr. Tumulty gave out a statement
to correspondents of St. Louis
newspapers declaring that the senator's
statement was "absolutely and
unqualifiedly false." Senator Spencer
in turn issued a statement saying
that he did not believe rhe presided
had authorized such a -denial.
The president's letter was m repiy
to -the statement! It follows:
"Senator Selden Palmer Spencer, St.
i Louis, Mo.r
"I have just been shown your
statement that my secretary's denial
of the previous statement by ycu
that I had promised American military
aid to Rumania and Serbia was
issued by him without my knowledge
and sanction and that you did not a
moment believe that I had made ary
such denial or that the matter was
ever called to my attention by Mr.
Tumulty, and that,I requested him to
issue the denial to which you refer.
. I reiterate the denial. The statement
{ you made was false.
"Woodrow Wilson."
St. Louis, Oct. 5.?United States
Senator Selden P. Spencer late today
replied to President Wilson's denial
that he had promised American military
assistance to Rumania and Serbia
in event of invasion of those
countries. The president's denial
was provoked by a recent address cf
Mr. Spencer in which the senator in
t effect, declared the president naa
made such a promise.
The senator's reply, in part, follows
:
"I beg to acknowledge receipt cf
. your telegram of October 5 in which
* you deny that you promised American
military aid to Rumanians ar.d
Serbians and that previous denial
wmcn 'J - ST. i UUIUU^V nau muut huj
at your request ?The statement cf
yours to which I have often referred
in my addresses was the'statement
in the stenorgaphic notes of
the eighth plenary cession of the
peace conference, in which you arc
reported to have said to Premier
Bratianu of Rumania as follows:
" 'You must net forget that it is
force that is the constitutional guaranty
of the public peace. If the world
- i 1-1-J iU.
IS again ll'UUUiCU, UlC u: incru Mano
will send to this side of the ocean
their army and their fleet.'
"The statement was made upcn
the floor of the senate on February
2, 1920, by Senator Reed, and so
far as I have learned, has never been
denied until nov.\ It has been widely
circulated over the United States.
If you did not make the statement
to Premier Bratianu* I should be
much indebted if you will be gccJ
enough to inform me.**'
Senator Spencer's reply pointed
out that a recent issue of a national
\ publication attributed the statement
to the president.
