f AUSTRALIAN & N.Z. CABLE 18800IAT10N1 AVHAT WILSON SAID. (Receved tins day at 11.30 a.m.) AVASHINGTON, Oct 11. A AVhite House official publishes ai stenographic transcript of Mr AVilson’s remarks before the eighth plenary session of the Peace Conference. The transcript, which is by his own shorthand reports, supports the President’s denial of Senator Spencer’s charge that Mr Wilson promised American military aid to Serbia and Roumania if these countries should be attacked. This is controverted in the paragraph which reads “How can a power like United States ,after signing the Treaty, if it contains elements which they do not believe will be permanent, go three thousand miles away across the sea and report to its people that it has made settlement of the peace of the world. It cannot do so yet there underlies all these transactions an expectation on the part, for example, of Roumania, Czecho-Slovakia and Serbia, that if any of the covenants of this settlement are not observed, United States will send her armies and navies to see that they are observed.
