"START A PANIC
• IF YOU DARE"
Says President-elect Wilson—A
Banquet Given Him in New
York by Southern Society
.New York. Dee, IS I'l'esidcilt
elect Wilson, in an address last
tiijihi before I he Southern Soci
ety of this slate, said: "No man j
dare to slarl a panic."
ISiiv. Wilson, who was the. guest
of honor, in speaking of the'many
-lories which have been circulat
ed in the yellow press that a pan
ic would follow his election, made
Hie statement "that no man dare." i
The Democrats have always:
claimed lhat the money trust;
I
would cause a panic in order to ;
prove the fallacy of the Demo
cratic policies. The Republicans, j
however, stale that the statement j
of the new head of the Democrat - j
ic party is made to offset the pre- j
•I id ed hard times which will i
surely follow larilV reduction.
