Senator Vardaman stated in an interview credited to him from
Washington that President Wilson was using the methods he was
pursuing to preserve peace because the National Banks directed the
course he was following He said:
Since the day the national banks began making loans to the
allies, believe the administration has been doing everything within
powers"
Not satisfied with the above thrust at a Democrat President be-
low the belt the Washington correspondent of the New Orleans
Times-Picayune credits Mr.. Vardaman with the following state
nent:
Senator Vardaman's opinion il that every one, from President
to page, who has had any hand in preventing the Withdrawing of
