Oxford, O., Dec. William
Howard Taft, speaking before an au-
dience Saturday right at Miami Uni
versity on "the league of nations, !"
said the German people were as much
responsible for the war as the Hohen-
zcllerns. in that by reason of their
faulty education and the false philos-
ophy they had been taught for years,
Trey were willingly led. Mr.. Taft said
President Wilson had once announced
himself rs favorable to the establish
ment of The league of nations, but had
s::rce grown lukewarm. However, i
vas hoped, he said. that when the
President got on the other side h:
would change his attitude.
He sail that the United States, on
account III its dominance as world
power, was the logical nation to push
the matter of the international league

lack INTO its shell and say we will live
unto ourselves and let the other ma
