WILSON WILL
NOT BE CALLED
IN LOBBY QUIZ
Senator Reed Says He Does Not
Intend to Ask President to
Take Stand.
CHARGE IS RESENTED
No Official Cognizance Likely,
but If Forced Friends Say
Executive Has Facts.

WASHINGTON. June There is
resentment in the White House Of the
charge made by Senator Townsend at
the Senate lobby hearing that Presi-
dent Wilson is the most effective lob
bylst There is doubt, however, that
the President will take official notice
Of the criticism OF his methods and
appear before the investigating com
mission.
Senator Reed. acting chairman, de-
clares that he will not call the Presi-
dent TO the stand.
He will be welcomed, II he desires
TO appear, but see no reason why he
should DENY charges that never have
been made. and until some Senator
makes a specific charge. naming some
Senator who has been influenced, the
President will not be called" says Mr..
Reed
Senator Reed made his statement
upon his return from the White
House. where he had a conference
with Secretary Tumulty.
Senator Cummins, who. with Sena-
tor Nelson, Of Minnesota. represents
the minority, has made no definite
plans He declares that inasmuch as
the Democrats started this inquiry
upon the direct charge nv the Priest
dent that lobby existed. Il is their
duty 10 pursue 1t O. the end
Wants Presidential Proof
But" said the Iowa man. Il intend
70 insist before the hearings are over
that President Wilson furnish the
committee with the facts or informa-
ton upon which he based his state
ments as to the insidious lobbying
IN washington
This is taken to mean that IL is
probable the President will be asked
to appear before the committee In
person instead Of transmitting his
statement in writing n this he the
case his friends declare he is primed
with SUFFICIENT material TO establish
his charges.
The committee was in recess to-
day, preparing for the resumption Of
the hearing Monday, when the last Of
the Senators will be called 20 testify.
Long List Of Outsiders.
There are about a dozen of these,
and then will come the long list of
outsiders whose names have been
mentioned. These include men inter
ested In both sides Of the sugar fight,
in wool and other commodities af-
fected by the tarif bill They include
lawyers manufacturers, planters. for
mer members Of Congress. free lance
publicity promoters and many others.
The list Of witnesses for next week
was enlarged to-day by the addition
Of the name Of r. u Brown. Paris,
Texas. Circular letters signed by Mr.
Brown. as chairman Of the lnterna-
tional Farmers Union committee, on
the greater consumption of cotton.
were furnished by Senators Ransdell
