today that Thomas W. Lamont, rep-1
resenting tho Morgan Interests, had ;
purchasod the New York fcvening
Post for tho purposo of using It in I
connection with propaganda in fa-or
of tho League of Nations.
Senator Borah declared that before
tho dobnte on the league closed he
would show that 'big financial inter
ests woro In conclifvo to exploit the
naturnl resources of Europe and have
tho United Stales underwrite the In
vestment. "The mask of hypocrisy will be
torn off," ho said, "and even the
sacred namo of an ex-president can
not bo used to protect tho men who
proposo to sell out this country."
Tho Idaho senator read from a
publication of tho Leaguo to Enforce
Peace a statement that three-fourths
of tho contributions to that campaign
camo from business men and said
that while, the name of Kuhn, Loeb &
company was not among the concerns
montioned, ho had evidence that it
s.hould lie there.
Reading a letter which he said had
been sent to agents of the league
urging that telegrams and represen
tatives be sent to Washington to aid
in Influencing senatorial opinion, the
senator snld:
"Yet these people are determined
that there shall be no popular vote
upon this proposition while they or
ganize for tho purposo of having cer
tain Influential gontlomon come here
to confer with sonntors and create a
