By Telegraph — Copyright) .
" WASHINGTON, Wed. A strongly-worded denunciation was made to-day of charges made. on Tuesday by Mr. L. T. McFadden (Republican representative for Pennsylvania), that President Hoover had deceived the American people to aid Germany. Mr. C. L. Beedy (Republican representative for Maine) called Mr. McFadden's statement "unquestionably a falsehood." The Democrats were prompt to point out that the charges against the President did not come from their side of the House. The debate broke out shortly after the Under-Seeretary of the Treasury, Mr. O. Mills had told the Senate Finance Committee that failure to ratify the moratorium would do irretrievable damage to the country. Mr. Mills issued a warning that any deviation by this country from the moral principles involved might be taken by the other countries as an excuse for default' of payment.
