HAYS ASKED
TO RETRACT
Slanders About the Treasury
Using List of Names of
Those Who
BOUGHT LIBERTY BONDS

Washington, D. c., Jan. 13.-Sec
retary of the Treasury, Carter Glass.
who will take his seat as member of
the United States Senate, probably
this week, today issued an answer
to the criticism of Will H. Hays,
chairman of the Republican National
Committee, in which Hay is charged
that the Democratic National Com
mittee had made use of the mailing
list of Liberty Bond buyers in the
United States.
Chairman Hays, 1t apears, made
his statement to the New York
Times on January 8. Mr.. Glass call
ed upon him then to either pro-
duce your proof or publicly to retract
this slander upon the Treasury of
the United States" Whereupon Mr..
Hays wired Secretary Glass that IT
did say that names were being pro-
cured by the Democratic organiza-
ton by the hundreds Of thousands
from every available sourse."
m In his answer released tonight. Mr.
Glass wired Mr.. Hays: THE only
part of your dispatch of January 10
that is pertinent to my wire of jan
uary is the apparent denial by you
of the statement in the telegraphic
columns of the New York Times, as
cribing to you the explicit accusation
that the Treasury Department had
furnished, or permitted to be furn-
ished, for political uses, the mailing
lists of subscribers to Liberty Bonds.
To the extent that your dispatch may
fairly be construed as a disavowal of
! this slander. it relieves you of the
odium of having falsely Imputed to
the Treasury Department the knavey
of making partisan merchandise of
fiscal records that reflet the patriotic
devotion of the American people to
their government. In the degree that
your dispatch omits to make the de-
| nial perfectly plain and absolute.
you fail to acquit yourself of having
J wanIonly aspersed the honorable con-
duct of this department.
"I observe that you did say in
your speech, and now reasserted in
| your dispatch, THAT the Treasury
| sent out thousands of tons OF paTti-
san political literature as part OF
| its propaganda in Liberty Loan
| campaigns. This charge conveys an
| implication of gross stupidity, as well
as downright dishonesty upon the
| part of those managing the Liberty
i Loan organization. In the name OF
the 4many patriotic Republicans hav-
| ing charge of this work and equally
! responsible with their patriotic Dem
| ocratic associates, resent the 1mpu-
| tation as both false and silly. 1t Is
1 false because it isn't true; it is silly
| because the Treasury, straining every
| possible point of vantage to make the
| Liberty Loan a success and expert
/ encing some times a nreve-racklne
anxiety to enlist every available
/ agency. was no tidiotic enough, ever
i had It been mean enough, to tolerate
the remote suggestion of polit1ee4 ae
vantage in any of its literature o
administrative acts. Any charge u
i the contrary is tactless lnVentlon
Il vfthout a semblance Of plauslDlhty
