WILSON AND REED IN OPEN RUPTURE (Continued From First Page) from Mr, Meriwether appear to be in- tended to create the impression that Mr. Reed and I have held the same principles and advocated the same policles, and that he is entitled to and may be assumed to have my en- dorsement, as a candidate for re-elec- tion to the senate, This is far from being the case. To those who have closely observed Mr, Reed's career in Washington he has shown himself in- capable of sustained allegiance to any person or any cause. He has re- peatedly forfeited any claim to my confidence that he may ever have been supposed to have, and I shall never willingly consent to any further association with him. “I beg that you will do me courtesy to publish this letter. “Very truly yours, “WOODROW WILSON." Herc's Reed's Story A letter and statement given to Washington representative of the Globe Democrat by Senator Reed is printed as follows: “1 did have a difference with president, entirely good natured, over the federal reserve bank bill, The Kkernel of that controversy was that the president insisted that the hill which had originated in and been passed by the house should be re- ported out of the senate' committee and passed very speedily without giv- ing an opportunity for hearings. I insisted that hearings should be granted and they were granted. As a result of the hearings the bill was amended hundreds of times. Tells About Letter “It was after these hearings and with reference to them that the pres- ident wrote me the following lette “I hand you a facimile of the let- ter."” Senator Reed here produced printed circular ending with a photo- graphic copy of the president’s letter which read: the a “The White House, “Washington, Oct., 23, 1913: “My Dear Senator: “I hesitate to ask you to break in upon what must be one of the husiest weeks you have had by requesting you to come to the White House in order that I may say what is perfectly pos- sible for me to say in a letter. I want to thank you very warmly and sin- cerely for your statement made through a New York newspaper. I have felt all along the sincere honesty and independence of judgment you were exercising in tlhis whole matter and you may be sure that there has never been in my mind any criticism except an occasional difference of judgment. I think that things are now shaping themseclves admirably and I am quite willing to admit that the processes upon which you have insisted have contributed to that re- sult. I feel that T can count on you from this time out to play a leading part in bringing this whole matter to a satisfactory issue and I want you to know what satisfaction it gives me to feel that I can do thi “Cordially and faithfully “WOODROW Invited to Call “p. 8.—Pray call upon me at any itme that you would like to confer about any feature of the matter. W. w. Meriwether today repeated his . statement and added that he also had seen a letter from Wm. G. McAdoo, son-in-law of Wilson written when McAdoo was secretary of the treasury, commending Reed's work on the fed- eral reserve bill.
