PRESIDENT WILSON SCATHINGLY
 DEN0yNCES REPUBLICAN PARTY.

LONG DhANSn, IN. J., soepI. OO.- In a vigorous denunciation of the Republican party, President Wilson today told a delegation of young de mocrats from New York that "the certain prospect" of Republican sue cess in November is that i've shall be drawn in one form or another into the embroilments of the European war;" and that ''the force of the United States will be used to produce in Mexico the kind of law and order which some investors in Mexico con sider most to their advantage"
 The president made his first out and out political speech of the cam paign from the porch of Shadow Lawn. Urged on by the enthusiastic cheers and waving banners of several thousand young men, he assailed the Republican party and laid down the issues on which he believes the cam paign should be fought.
 Still discussing the foreign affairs of the country, President Wilson stated that on account of the political uses made of foreign relations, "it is going to be practically impossible for the present administration to handle any critical matter concerning our foreign relations, because all for eign statesmen are waiting to see which way the election goes, and in the meantime they know that settle ments would be inconclusive."
 Most of the presidents address was devoted to criticisms of the Republi- can party and to outlining his own plans. A bid was made by the presi dent for the votes of Progressives. He praised the Progressive party as having "the real red blood of human sympathy in it's veins," and declared the Democratic party had done the things the Progressives wanted done.
 Briefly the president referred to the hyphenate issue. He said:
 "Back of that party (the Republi- can) are those who want to inject into our politics the politics of Europe"
 Outlining the program of the De- mocratic party, MT. Wilson said it has begun the process of Liberalization" for the business of this country, and ''it intends to strengthen that system at every point, extend it at every point, extend it wherever it needs eX- tention."
 He referred briefly to the federal reserve act, the tariff commission act, the trade commission act, and other laws passed by the Democrats, charg- ing that 'until the present admins tration, Wall street controlled the ac- tions of the treasury of the United States"
 The presidents address follows:
 q am very much obliged to you for giving me an opportunity to say very plain things about the present cam paign and about the future policy of this country, because young men are very much more interested in the fu- ture than they are in the present. While some of us who are older look back upon long experience and are able to take certain measurements which may not have occurred to you, nevertheless, your feeling is that the world lies in front of you and not be- hind you. You want to know what sort of world it is going to be and what sort of guidance you are going to have in that world and what sort of cooperation among you will be ef- fective for the service of the world into which the years ahead of you will bring you.
 q do not know where, from Repub- lican quarters, you nave got any sug- gestions as to what is going to happen in the years to come. This is a most
 
 singular campaign. 1 will not say an campaign, because l happen to remember that other parties have tried to get into power by saying whatever; and 1 also remem- Der with interest that they never suc- ceeded, because the people of the United States are an inquisitive people and if you ask them to entrust you with the great power of their govern ment they really want to know what you are going to do with that govern ment if they entrust you with it. They may not insist upon your telling them what you would have done in circum- stances now past and gone, but they will insist upon your telling them what you intend to do in the future.
 "For little while I myself expect ed that this campaign would be an in- teresting, intellectual contest; that on both sides men would draw upon some
