TO FRENCH INTERVIEWER.
Official Denial Has Not Yet Been

PARIS. March IA special CORE
spondent who is now describing America
for the benefit of the readers Of the Petit
Journal has been interviewing President
Roosevelt, who so impressed the inter-
American chief executive a modern Sieg-
fried, a hero of the old German epics,
adapted to the conditions of our times.
During Mckinley's times. according to the
correspondent, the most popular person
in the United States was the kaiser.
whose personality dazzled Americans, but
this admiration vanished when Mr.. Roose-
welt came into power, the President being
the incarnation Of everything which Amer
leans believe to be typical American.
When the conversation at the White
House reached the question of the eco
nomic crisis the interviewer found tina t
Mr. Roosevelt holds personal opinions
which are scarcely reconcilable with the
political acts which he has countersigned.
Thus, he has approved the Aldrich finance
the road to any serious reform in the
monetary system. The President, the cor
respondent says, is really q convinced
partisan of a government central bank. and
feels certain that this solution of the
question will gradually but eventually be
reached.
Quotes the President.
When the interviewer asked If such an
institution must be created. the Presi-
dent replied tand the interviewer who
in the former parts of his story expressed
regret that etiquette prevented him from
quoting the Presidents actual words more
often. here gives the reply textually):

We live in a great democracy and III
democracy nothing is every must De-
mocracy allows nothing to be imposed.
All its directors can do is to await de-
velopments Of the peoples will while en-
Tightening the peoples opinion"
The interviewer gathered the. impression.
however. that the President did not be-
live himself absolutely competent TO dls-
cuss questions affecting the financiai
world These problems seem to have for
him. as for almost all who are not special
lists, something impossible to grasp. Some
thing mysterious. Furthermore, he re-
fused to discuss details of this subject
It Was His Fleet.
On the other hand. the President showed
himself wonderfully certain on, INTERNAL
tional politics and impressed his nearer
as sensibly less optimistic in regard to
the relations of the United States with
Japan than the official communicates APP
pear to indicate. He was distressed at
the campaign of the French press which
represented that war between the United
States and Japan was inevitable and fail
ed to understand the reasons for It, Here
