WASHINGTON, Jan. l9.--Assort-
ing that the wilson Harvey W atferso n
controversy is q bubble and not 4
blow" Senator Gore, OF Oklahoma.
today issued statement In defense
OF the New J rsey governor. The
statment in part follows:
This whole Wilson Harvey Waiter
son incident Is q bubble. not q billow.
1t Is not surprising. however. that the
opponents of Wilson and the friends
of other candidates should mistake
the one for the other. 1t seems that
head and heart OF the governors Of
tending is that he told the truth.
No honest man can accept an Of
Ace. least OF all the presidency. with
a lien upon his conscience. To de-
cline rendered aid ana alliance. IL a
most difficult and delicate task. To
do this In tho face OF danger is an
act OF moral and political hearism OF
which few men are capable.
'Peradventure, the governor may
have learned there are men who
would undertake to capitalize graft
tude and to commerclalize influence.
He may have thought Il just and time
Is, 70 foreafose the possibility ct such
an attempt hereafter.
THE critics OF Governor Wilson
should tell the public frankly whether
their candidates would assume such
an obligation as the governor declined,
and II SO. whether their candidates
would disregard or would DISCHARGE
such obligation. The American peo-
pie have a Fight to know the text
and terms of all mortgages and deeds
Of trust under which q candidate for
the presidency may labor, and they
have an equal right to know the
ames OF all the mortgages and bene-
ficiaries OF the trust. I would rather
see Governor Wilson defeated with
his heart an open book than to see
him triumphant with q skeleton In
his political closet which has been
concealed from the eyes of confidins
public.r

afternoon in private parlor of the
