FOLKS STATEMENT

The sta tement issued by Mir. Polk tonight follows;
 My attention has been called to statement that appeared In the news papers the morning of Wednesday, June 1, and quoted by Senator Lodge in de- bate today to the effect that I had stated that certain parts of the peace treaty were in the hands of financial interests in New York
 T made no such statement. I was asked by a representative of the press on the afternoon of Tuesday, June 3. whether l knew of the existence of a copy of the treaty in New York referred to that day by Senator Lodge and Sena- tor Borah. I said did not know of the existence of any copy of the treaty in the United States other than those in my possession, but 1t was possible that those senators had reference to cer- tain separate clauses relating to repar- ations and finance, as I understood there were some copies of reports on those sections in this country. I did not say that these sections of the treaty were in the possession of financial in- terests in New York and I made no mention whatever of financial inter- ests in New York,
 As far as I know the copies of fi- nancial and reparation sections are not in the hands of unauthorized persons"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-06-06

Starting with the controversy over
 the publication of the treaty it drifted
 to the principles of the treaty itself fore it was finished involved shaTp charges of partisanship and politics from both sides of the chamber
 Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, senior democrat of the foreign rela- tions committee, charged that Senator
 Lodge of Massachusetts and Senator Borah of Idaho /have made an attack
 "of most scanda1ous nature" on the
 President in their statements telling
 of copies of the unpublished treaty iu
 New York. A searching investigation
 was demanded by the Nebraska sem
 ator.
 Senator Lodge replied that there was nothing to conceal and that he would welcome investigation which should include also the democratic State Department. Senator Borah
 made a similar statement and then charged that there was a conduit between those backing the league to endorse peace, headed by former 
 President Taft, and those who possess information as to what is in the treaty.
 Tonight Acting Secretary Polk of the State Department took a hand in the controversy through issuance of statement denying declaration of Senator Lodge during the debate that l the State Department had told news paper men financial sections of the 1 treaty were in the hands of financial l interests in New York.
 'As far as l know, *said MT, Polk. tin the first formal expression on the ! subject that has come from the de- : partment, the copies of financial and
 preparation sections are not in the hands of unauthorized persons"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-06-06

The statement of Senator Lodge which drew the statement from MT. Polk was made in reply to a series of squestions by Senator Hitchcock. Asked about the source of the New York copies, MT Lodge replied:
 T only know that they are here in this country and on the authority Of the state department. that they are i'll the hands of financial interests"
 Can the senator suggest who in the state department made that statement?" asked MT, Hitchcock.
 MT. Frank Polk made it."
 ITO whom''
 He made it to the press and it was printed in the press that evening""
 Later in the day Senator Hitchcock told the Senate he had talked with MT. Polk over the telephone and that the latter apparently had been done an in- justice by the Massachusetts senator's statement. To this Senator Lodge re- piled that two days ago he had been told by newspaper man that the state department had made statement on the subject, he immediately called MT. Polk by telephone. he said, and con- tinued
 He said that all he had said was that he thought what had been re- ferred to might be portions of the treaty relating to financial matters which had fallen into hands of New York bankers or business men whoever they were.'
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-06-06

in 1920" he continued, and the re- publicans keep silent, there'n be party that will spring up to stand for American ideals. l am not speaking my individuals views alone. I have been through the country and know how strong the sentiment is.'
 MT Borah did not mention in the Senate the purpose he announced last night to put copy of the treaty in the Congressional Record if one could be secured from New York He told inquirers however, that the copy had not arrived.
