I. K. CLOUDS ISSUE
 BY "BUFFOONERY"
Colonel Attacks Administration in
 Defending Maj. Gen. Wood

New York, Aug. 2S-Colonel Theo- Gore Roosevelt directly attacked the administration last night in state ment in reply to Secretary or War Garrison's comment on the Coloners Plattsburg speech, Colonel Roose- ve1t intimated that MT. Garrison was clouding the issue by buffoonery." He again defended Major General Leonard Wood and characterized as all imputation on it's own conduct the administrator g rebuke of General
 Wood through Mr. Garrison.
 The Colonel reiterated in his state ment that he had not mentioned the president in his Plattsburg speech and did not speak of the administration His speech, he said, was plea for preparedness and against divided al- legiance to the flag. The administra- ticn's rebuke of General Wood, the Colonel thinks, was inexcusable. It constituted, the Colone! says, "an un- conscious commentary by the adminis- tration on it's own attitude"
 Col. Roosevelt's Statement.
 The Colorel's statement follows:
 Tt does not seem to me that when the administration through MT. Gar rison has thought With peculiarly mean unfairness to discredit the fore most officer of the United States army it is wise for MT. Garrison to attempt by buffoonery to distract attention from the point at issue. General Wood had no responsibility whatso- ever for my speech, and this the ad- ninistration when it acted through MT. Garrison of course perfectly well knew.
 "General Wood had devoted every thought and action of his life to the betterment of the United States army and the saving of the American peo- pie. Anything that the administration closes to say of me it is more than welcome to say, but to assail General Wood for my action for which he had not and for which they knew he had not the smallest responsibility, was not CXcusable.
 Never Mentioned Administration.
 "As for what the administration through Mr. Garrison says of my speech, I again call attention to the fact that I never mentioned the name of the president and that l never spoke of the administration in the speech. But I did make the strongest kind of a plea in favor of prepared ness. I did the strongest way ask that we of this country act as Americans and as nothing else and that we as nation prepare so that no outside power may be also to bring shame Or dish upon us.
 Tt is an unconscious commentary by the adminiStra tOn itself on it's own attitude that the administration tration should at once denounce plea for preparedness as an assault on the administration of the war deDH't- m ent under the administration anH should Ohpect to the officers and the enlisted men of the United States army listening to an appeal against any divided allegiance to the flag of the Tinted States. Let it be remembered that my whole speech was speech in favor of preparedness and against any division in our allegiance to our com mon flag The administration through MT. Garrison treats this as an lmpu- tation on it's conduct in the past
