Ninety-tbr<-^ cents of every dollar ybu pay as Federal taxes goes to help pay the expenses for past and future wars. A vote for Cox, Smith and Benson means a vote for the League of Nations, and the League of Nations means an end to gigantic wars.
Senators Borah and Johnson have threatened to desert him because hu would not declare himself in favor or "scrapping" the League, while Ex-President Tat't and otner pro-League Republicans nave been very much ais-concerted because he would not at least give some qualified support to the measure. The result is mat thvj Republican Presidential candidate is between two fires wthin his own party, plus- the tire of a united Democratic party, and being thus situated he appears to be unable to/ make up his mind which,way to turn.
in repiy to a query at his recent meeting in Baltimore Senator Harding was frank enougn to confess that lie had no "constructive plan" in mind, but seemed to tnink tnat if elected President he could in tiome incomprehensible manner lorm an association of nations to preserve the peace of tne world, in a speecn delivered, at Des, Moines on Thursday he clarified (?) his position somewhat by saying that he was opposed to tne League of Nations as set up in tne Treaty of Versailles, and tnat "as soon as possible" after his election (sic) he would "advise" witn the "best minds" ' in tne United States, and especially with the "Senate," to the end "tnat we shall have an association of nations for the promotion of international peace," He said further that he did not care to "risk embarrassing the final solution of a problem so momentous by undertaking to lay down in advance specific details or plans." He mignt more truthfully have said that he did not care to risk the embarrassment of splitting his party, and thus bringing about his defeat by telling the American people precisely where he stands upon tne issue.
Senator Harding's position upon the League of Nations issue is, we submit, lamentably weak and indefensible. The very idea of a Presdental candidate being afradd to speak his mind freely upon a great public question because to do sp might embarrass the final solution of the question. He says, in effect, "I can not tell you just what I shall do, but elect me President and 1 will then consult some of the 'best minds in the country and try to form an association of nations to promote international peace." What a puerile attitude for a Presidential candidate to assume! One would expect more from a candidate for Dog-catcher!
If the American people elect Warren G. Harding as their President it will mean, in the first place, that we shall have to go through the humilat-ing process of negotiating a "separate peace" with Germany, in violation of the understanding we had with our Allies when we entered tne war. And, in the second place, it will mean that the Unjited Stats will become virtually an "outcast" among nations of tne world, because even with the "advice and consent" of the Senate President Harding would never be able to tear down tne League of Nations, as it is now constituted, and set up in its stead another association of nations, such as he appears to have in his mind. To even attempt such a thing would make the United States the "laug.Ang stock" of tne world! And if the
United States is tnu3 left out of the Green mount Ave League, it will mean that we shall have to prepare to defend ourselves against tne wnole world And right at this point, let every voter bear fin mind that 93 cents out of every dollar he now pays in Federal taxes goes to cove rthe cost of war—past and present. What will our taxes be if we are obliged to arm against the world?
In sharp contract to Senator Harding's equivocal position upon the League of Nations issue is Governor Cox's unequivocal position. Governor Cox favors "going in" the League of Nations as it is now constituted. There are no "ifa" or "buts" about his attitude. He is not relying upon the "best minds" in the country to guide him after election. He knows precisely where he stands now, and is not afraid to tell the people. He believes that the League of Nations presents an opportunity for the United States to participate in a great world-wide movement to preserve the future peace of the world, and he thinks we should take advantage of the opportunity before it is too late. He is for putting an end to war for all time to come.
All citizens, male, and female, of whatever political persuasion, who are desirious of promoting an era of! "Peace on Earth, Good Will Toward Men," should on Nevember 2 vote for Cox and Roosevelt, and a Democratic Congress. Thos/e who favor postponing such an era unijil the United States can negotiate a separate peace with Germany, and until the Republican President can consult the "best minds" of the country to determine what next to do, should vote for Harding and Coolidge, and a Republican Congress. There is no other alternative.

! Senator Harding has -assured the workingman that he never said a dollar a day wasi enough for him. He has assured the farmer that he never said a dollar bushel was enough for wheat. The barbers are now waiting to be assured that he never said a dollar was enough for a hair cut.

(Continued from Page 1, Col. 3.) important was the Federal Farm Loan Act, which lifted old burdens of debt from thousands of families. Under its; provision twelve Federal Land Banks and numerous Joint Stock Land Banks are in operation, with the result that interest rates have declined from 25 per cent, in aome cases to 5^. per cent. with mortgages extending up to 35 years. Another piece of beneficial legislation was the provision in the Federal Reserve Act authorizing national banks to lend money on farm mortgages and giving the farmer's paper a maturity of six months.
