DECLARES CREDIT
is NOT IMPAIRED
Senator Van Nuys Defends New
Deal Expenditures in
Talk.

New Deal expenditures by the
Roosevelt administration to fight the
depression have not impaired the
Governments credit, Senator Van
Nuys, Democrat, Of Indiana declared
in addressing dinner of the Indiana
Democratic Editorial Association at
French Lick. Ind, last night.
After reviewing and defending the
various laws enacted since March,
1893, including emergency relief and
public works programs, Senator Van
Nuys said opponents of the admins
tration "are seemingly very much con-
cerned about the credit Of the United
States"
May I call the attention Of such
opposition" he continued, Ito the fact
that on July Is the Treasury borrowed
$500, ZOO, 900 at / q per cent and the
subscriptions received amounted to
2,975, 600, ,0o0."
He said offers Of Government bonds
since that date also have been over
subscribed, and added, "All Treasury
bonds are now selling above par, rang
ing from 1o1 to lit. I ask you, does
this indicate that the credit of the
United States is even impaired, much
less threatened by destruction?"
The Indiana Senator praised Presi-
dent Roosevelt, who. he said. has the

won the friendship of the French
delegates by obtaining for them some
of the points they believed were sesen-
tial for the welfare of France. I en-
tertained many delegates at dinner
and developed numerous friendships.
After the conference I again re-
turned to Paris I had not been there
long when Gen. Pershing invited me
TO travel through the war zone.
Il spent several weeks on that trip.
When I returned to Paris the peace
conference was about to open. In the
meantime, President Wilson had ar
rived.
"At a secret session of the peace
conference, shortly after it opened,
the delegates voted that the Monroe
Doctrine must be relegated to the
past as a cardinal principle in Amer
lean Government. What right had
the United States to assume authority
beyond its boundaries? That was the
question propounded to the delegates
before they voted.
Although the United States WAS a
creditor nation, and in position
where it should have dictated TO the
world, it was unable 70 stop the tide
against the doctrine
News Never Released.
THE news was never released. The
powers did not care to advertise a
fact which might inspire so much
sentiment in the Americas, and Pres
ident Wilson was too Inundated to
say anything.
Col. House came to talk with me.
This will ruin U.s. he said. Since
you were so closely associated at Lon
don with many of these delegates.
don't you believe you could persuade
them to reverse their decision?'
II set out upon what was the most
difficult mission in my life. began
by seeing the French delegates. Since
I had helped them so much at Lon
don, they acquiesced to my pleas. I
went from the representatives of one
power to another, and. finally, I OBJ
tanned enough for a favorable vote.
THE council reversed itself. The
Monroe D0ctrlne was saved.
President Wilson summoned me
and thanked me for my work.
"'You owed nothing to this ad-
ministration,' he said, and yet you
performed one Of the greatest services
that any statesman could have rem
dered to the United States
President Wilson, although I was
one of the foremost critics of his
administration, was truly a deep
scholar, an intelligent idealist of the
highest class, but he was too i'm
practical. Because of his naive ma
ture, he was the dupe of the crafty
European statesmen who attended the
peace conference"
