NEW YORK. September 27.-Presi-
dent Wilson was characterized as "the
worlds greatest menace" in an address
by United States Senator Miles Poin-
dexter at a mass meeting of Queen
countr republicans in Long Island
City today. The meeting was held to
celebrate the sixty-ffth anniversary
of the founding of the republican
party Senators Wadsworth and Cal

The senator from Washington. after
blaming the President for delay in
ratifying the peace treaty, said he was
'the greatest pro-German in the

Referring to the Presidents imputa-
ton that certain opponents of the
peace treaty and covenant were PRO
Germans and bolshevists." Mr.. Poin-
dexter entered n vigorous disclaimer,
declaring at the same time that the
President was forced into the war
against the Germans by an irresistible
public opinion in opposition to his
will, and tried, as late as 1918, to pre-
cipitate a. negotiated peace and thus
defeat the aims of the allies"
