The Statesman-Index has re-
peatedly stated that Woodrow
Wilson is a free trader, and warn
ed the people what would happen
if a free-trader were elected presi-
dent.
just for the sake Of being
honest, the Index should not make
such statements. Wilson is not a
free-trader, and he never was.
Furthermore, he has emphatically
stated, both in writings and
speeches, that free trade is impos-
sibie in this country probably for
many years to come. Please, Mr..
Index, be honest enough with your
readers to print his statement,
now that you have printed your
own desired account of him.
Even if Wilson is a democrat,
it is not necessary to tell untruths
