ERMANS HEAR RUMBLI FOREIGN POLICY FLAYED BY WILSON Sunda And WYOMING WEEKLY REVIEW CASPER, WYO., SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1923 , (du00) Uer0;s 23 By War President in Radio Speech ; to America’s Selfish Policy By LAWRENCE MARTIN United Press Staff Correspondent. WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—In a bitterly scathing de- |nunciation of America’s attitu de on world affairs since the war ended, Woodrow Wilson tonight delivered by radio from his home here to an audience of probably more than |1,000,000, one of the most sensational addresses of his career. In about eight minutes of labored the war-time president com- pressed one of the bitterest stric- tures ever hurled at those respon- sible for what he declared was America's withdrawal “into a sullen and selfish isolation which is deep- ly ignoble, because manifestly cowardly and dishonorable.” Upon American refusal to “bear any responsible part in the adminis- tration of peace or the firm and per- manent establishment of the result of the war won at so terrible a cost” Mr. Wilson laid the respon- sibility for the world’s present con- dition of turmof! and confusion. Even the sinister climax, which, he declared, has been furnished by have between them, made a scrap of paper of the Versailles treaty— could have been avoided, Mr. Wil- son held, had America rendered the co-operation and ald it should have given. He charged that America did a “great wrong to civilization at one of the most critical turning points in the history of mankind.” It is the more deplorable, he said, because the passing years have made the need of American help more mani- fest and more pressing. But out of its deep mortification, America will once more be forced. he predicted, “by the moral obliga: tions of freedom and honor” to as. sume again “the role of courage, self-respect, and helpfulness. ‘The Armistice day which should be a day of great exhaltation of spirit to the American people be- cause of the incomparable service of their sons inthe war, hasbeen mar- red 4 embittered, he said, by Am- erica’s failure to stand by her allies. Though the present. outlook is dark, Mr. Wilson said that happily chance to retrieve its ‘fatal error” and by manifesting “the will to lead and prevail” set the world right again. He called on his countrymen, in a voice clearer and more resonant than at any time in his brief speech, to lay aside self-interest and to act It was 8:27 when a radio announc- er, standing in Mr. Wilson's study, speaking into the microphone on his, desk there, said that “the next voice you hear will be that of Mr. Wood- row Wilson.” Then came a long wailt—eight minutes of silence. Tt was lke watching a darkened stage for the) appearance of the first “character. Suddenly the electric current ran stronger and then came the husky first words in a voice that was no more like that of the Woodrow Wil- son of armistice day five years ago than fs the voice of an aged, aged man. There were several interruptions. In the middie of his first sentence, Mr. Wilson's voice was chopped off by a buzzing sound. As he went on, he seemed to find it difficult to breathe. He spoke jerkily and throatily. He talked in all about elght min- utes and a half.
