WILSON TALK
Refers to Speech as ENTER
tanning Essay"

New York, Aug, Elm the opinion of
Charles ID. Hilles, chairman of the Re
publican national committee, there are
radical differences indicated in the
Democratic policy as expressed in the
speech of acceptance Of Governor Will
son and in the platform of the Demo-
cratic national convention. Mr.. Hilles
spoke rather jeeringly about what he
regards as the lack Of harmony be-
tween the candidate and the platform.
In discussing the Democratic presi-
dental candidates speech of accept
ance, Mr.. Hilles said:
Professor Wilson's speech of accept
ance is an entertaining essay. Its tone is
surprisingly conservative and through
out there is an evidence of a positive
programme for the conduct of the
Democratic campaign. The expressed
views of the candidate differ so radi-
cally with those of Mr.. Bryan, the au-
thor of the platform, that the speech
of acceptance would seem in effect
to be a reputation of that platform
and its maker"
