THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. A HIT BELOW THE BELT. AUSTRALIAN AND N-Z. CABLE ASSN. I (Received 1, 9.40 a.m.) New York, Oct. 31. Great interest is being taken in Senator Lodges’ charge that the President put a postscript to the Lusitania Note suggesting that the contents should not be taken too seriously. President Wilson indignantly denies this. He says a member of the Cabinet suggested intimation should be given that the German proposal of arbitration would be acceptable, but he (Wilson) rejected the suggestion. He adds: “The public knows the entire contents of the communication to Germany.” The “New York Times” opines that Mr. AV. J. Bryan made the suggestion, the non-adoption of which led to his resignation.
