his lead on the turn to about twenty

this great athlete actually leading the

SENATOR BRISTOW ACCUSES
PRESIDENT CT GROSS
INCONSISTENCY.
This Brings Senators of Both Par.
ties to Defense of President.
Debate Wakes Warm.

WASHINGTON. Feb. ls.-Accuslng
President Wilson OF inconsistency in
his views OF the binding effect OF the
Democratic platform and charging
that greed of the railroads and the
audacious claims OF Great Britain
seem far more potent with our presi-
dent than the appeal OF the woman
hood OF the nation. Senator Bristow
Republican OF Kansas. turned discus
sion or woman suffrage in the senate
today into vigorous debate on the
proposed repeal OF the free tolls pro
vision OF the Panama canal act.
Senator Bristow's attack brought TO
the defense OF the president several
Republican as well as Democratic sen.
ators. while II served also as the sig.
nal for opening the fight within the
Democratic party against repeal of the
toll exemption provision Senator
Chamberlain. Of Oregon. Democrat.
dramatically declared that he would
not "stultify' himself by telling his
constituents that he had not kept his
platform pledge on the toll question
because the president OF the United
States does not agree with me-"
While senators were thus engaged
in the first open discussion OF the ap.
preaching battle in congress over the
chief executives desire for reversal
OF the Panama policy. the president
was himself engaged with leaders OF
the house of representatives who ar-
opposed TO repudiatins the declara-
ton of the party platform. He dis
cussed the situation with Majority
Leader Underwood. and Representa-
tive kitchin, OF North Carolina. but 50.
far as could be learned. did not con-
vert them TO his view that the pro.
vision granting free tolls TO American
vessels violates the Hay-Pauncefote o
treaty and ambarrasses the admins.
tration in its foreign relations
Base Of His Charge
Senator Bristow based his charge
OF inconsistency against the President
on the ground that he had told the
sunraEists he could not advocate their
cause because the Democratic party
had not expressed itself i'm the mat
ter. while he proposed that Congress
should reverse itself on the tolls ques-
question despite the fact that the par
" had indorsed its action. Is this
connection the Kansas Senator men
toned the reference in the Baltimore
platform favoring a single presideu.

President would interpret this plank
in harmony with his position as to

question solely by his desire 20 re-
tore the United States TO its former
prestige among nations. The Presi-
dent does not like 10 see the United
states an outlaw among the nations,
added the Massachusetts Senator.
Referring TO the visit OF women sui.
fragists TO President Wilson last De-
cember, Senator Bristow quoted this
from the chief executives reply to
their request for support OF the equal
suffrage constitutional amendment:

at liberty until I speak for somebody

the Kansas senator continued. 1t was
not brought before the president bv
the GOOD women OF the country. but
by representative of the English
government. whose action had been
instigated by the American-Canadian
trans-continental railroads. and Brit
ish shipping interests" He quoted
the Baltimore platform i'm its endorse
ment Of the toll exemption policy for
American ships and declared that the
president in recent letter to Mr.
Marbury. OF Baltimore had declared
the exemption 10 be "a very mistaken
policy from every point OF view"
