GIVES ANALYSIS

Prof. Muensterberg Calls VIII
son Lyric, Hughes Epic.
CBy the international New. Service

(By the International News serviee.)
New York, Oct. So.-Three men only are
today prominent in the American politi-
cal sky: Wilson. Hughes, and Roosevelt
They difrer widely. but all three are new
fashioned idealists. They show charac-
teristically different types of self-con-
sciousness: That of Wilson is lyric, that
of Roosevelt dramatic, that of Hughes
epic"
Prof. Hugo Muensterburg thus intro
duces remarkable analysis Of the men
and issues in the present Presidential
ca upaign, in his new book, Tomorrow" "
which will appear tomorrow. The Har-
ward psychologist says:
Wilson Is always contemplating: he
settles the problems for himself by find-
ing well-balanced formulation; he re-
fleets on his own feelings; he likes to
speak about his mental pains, his joys,
his moods. His aim is social peace, in
ternational peace. harmony. and that is
beauty
Roosevelt aims toward quick and sur
prising action; his thought is potential
energy; his life element Is the conflict
with beasts or with men, with parties or
with nations.
Hughes aims toward the earnest full
fllment of9tasks persistently carried
through against difficulties. Neither the
feelings nor the impulses are paramount
in him, but the deliberate decision of the
mind.
Both Wilson and Roosevelt long for
the public, as both must be in the center
in order to give their best.
The strength of Hughes lies in his
conscious independence Of the audience"

Just why October and June should be

the ken OF the marriage license clerks,
but records for years past indicate that
these periods surpass in popularity any
other on the calendar.
1T may be that the soft moonlight and
the sentimental surroundings OF summer

Wilson Denies the Lusitania
Amendment Was Written.

tBy the international News serviee.)
Asbury Park, N. J.. Oct. S-President
Wilson issued a statement tonight deny
ing the charge made by Senator Lodge
that the Lusitania note carried any
amendatory postscript nuIlifying the pur-
port OF the text
Joseph Tumulty, Secretary to the
President. also denied that he knew of
any such Individual as George c. War
rem, tr., of Jersey City. This was In re-
ply to information made public by the
Republican National Committee that
Warren could corroborate Senator Lodge.
President Wilson's statement was in
the form of a telegram addressed to Wal
ter Lippman, editor OF the New Republic.
II follows:
Tn reply to your telegram, let me say
that the statement made by Senator
Lodge is untrue. No postscript or amend
ment Of the Lusitania note was ever
written or contemplated by me except
such changes as l myself inserted, which
strengthened and emphasized the protest.
1t was suggested after the note was
ready for transmission that an intima-
ton be conveyed to the German govern
ment that a proposal for arbitration
would be acceptable. and one member of
the Cabinet spoke to me about it, but it
was never discussed in Cabinetmeetings
and no threat of any resignation was
ever made. for the very good reason thar
l rejected the suggestion after giving il
such consideration as l thought every
proposal deserved which touched so grave
matter. II was inconsistent with the
purpose of the note. The public is in pos
session Of everything that was said to
the German government"
