WILSON REFERS TO
REED AS A "MARPLOT."
Desires Missouri's Redemption From
His Influence.

81. Louis, May S.-Referr1nS to
United States Senator James A
Reed as "marplot," former Presi-
dent Wilson, in letter to Gov. Lon
V. Stephens, made public today, ask
ed the defeat of Missouri's senior
senator to redeem the reputation
of the Democratic party"
1t was Mr.. Wilson's third letter
on the subject of the Democratic
nomination for United States sena-
tor, sought by Mr.. Reed and Breck-
enridge Long, former third assist
ant secretary of state in the Wilson
administration.
The letter was in reply to one b/
Mr.. Stephens in which the former
governor referred to a letter the
former president recently wrote the
st. Louis Globe-Democrat attacking
Reed. Mr.. Reed replied to this let
ter, in which he questioned Mr.. VIII
sons memory.
The letter under date of April 27,
to Mr.. Stephens, follows:
my Dear Gov. Stephens:
"Your letter Of April 20 has graf
flied me. 1 am glad to be sustained
in my own Judgment of Reed by
your own closer knowledge of him,
and l shall hope and confidently ex-
pect to see him repudiated by the
Democrats at the primaries. Ger
tainly Missouri cannot afford to be
represented by such marplot, and
it might check the enthusiasm of
Democrats throughout the country
if their comrades in Missouri should
not redeem the reputation of the
party by substituting for Reed a
man of the true breed of Democratic
principle. I am sure your own great
influence will contribute to the de-
sired and expected redemption.
"Please accept assurances Of my
entire confidence in the Missouri
Democrats and believe me, with best
wishes,
Sincerely yours,
(Signed) WOODROW WILSON"
In letter last week to John c.
Higdon, local attorney, Mr.. Wilson
asked Mr.. Higdon not to "compli-
cate the contest in Missouri by be-
coming a candidate for the nomina-
ton"
Mr. Long recently opened his cam
paign at Cape Girardeau and Mr..
Reed opened his Saturday at Mober-
ly.
In his opening campaign address
Senator Reed defendtd his course
and asserted Mr.. Wilson was "the
boy who is conducting the campaign
in Missouri for the other side"
Senator Reed, when shown a copy
of the Wilson letter, read it several
times and said:
81 have no comment to make on
this at present"
He declined to say whether a state
ment would be forthcoming later.

CAPPER DIAGNOSES
BUSINESS CONDITIONS

Senator Arthur Capper, of Kan
sas' has a way of prodding the male
factors of great wealth occasionally
with an array of facts tht cannot b.
controverted. Recently he issued g

business, and what ails it. He doesn't

The reduced purchasing power of the
farmer is assigned as one of the
causes of the depression existing es-
pecially in agricultural states.
Until the prices at which farmers
sell and the prices at which farmers
buy reach something approximately
\ sane level, he says, business and
industry and labor are not going to
get out of the hole. And the great
est obstacle to the necessary leveling
process continues to be the impossi-
Bile freight rates which have bound

16 months.

covers nothing else will. A general
reduction in rail rates must be the
first step. There is salvation in it
to the railroads themselves.
What sanity or sense is there to
prices such as these:
Corn one-third of a cent pound;
coal two-fifths of a cent.
Coal $3.50 a ton; freight charges
300 miles, $3.50.
Oats Is cents bushel; oatmeal 20
cents a bowlful.
