Predicts Success
Of Wilson's Plan

Discussing the league Of nations In
and giving his hearers some
.sidelights on the peace
Former President VIII
liam Howard Taft spoke to large
assembly Of prominent Richmond
citizens at the luncheon yesterday ar
ternoon in the Commonwealth club
rendered in his honor by the Virginia
branch of the league to enforce peace
and the Mems association OF st.
Fauis church. He denounced ths
opponents of the league a. working
against the best interests Of the
nation, and predicted the success Of
President Wilson's great plan.
Mr.. Taft, was introduced by George
Bryan, head of the Virginia branch
of the peace league, who described
him as not only the national prest-
dent of the league, but the very
heart and soul and driving power OF
it," Just az the u. 8. constitution
was assAiled on all sides and only
passed the Virginia Legislature by =
majority OF ten votes. he said. 30 the
league of nations plan was being op-
posed and Richmond was extremely
fortunate In having 80 great an
authority on the great question hare
to explain It.
As the great statesman arose to
speak he was greeted by cheers and
applause which lasted for several
minutes. Mr.. Taft was in his best
form, despite 4 railroad trip Of several
hours yesterday morning. ana his In
imatible smile and chuckle was much
In evidence. Combining amusing
anecdotes with hts more serious
theme. he held the interest Of Ata
hearers to the and. and Il was with
regret that they let him 90.
Enjoyable Trips TO R1chm0od.
Mr., Taft recounted with what
plea9hre he had enjoyed his former
visits to Richmond. Hia Arat thought.
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1919-05-04

If you believe in the principles for
which you fought" said the speaker.
in issuing his final appeal, then favor
the league and use all your influence
to secure its adoption by the senate.
Don't oppose IL because It will help
some party or administration you don't
like, or don't favor It for political
reasons.
!. A. 4 parting shot Mr.. Taft said n
nm Ecpu bfican and expect to live
and die a Republican, but this Is not
and never has been a party question.
II Is absurd to oppose II on the grounds
that it would help Democratic presi-
dent"
Before the prolonged applause and
cheering which greeted these remarks
had died out, he hurled something like
bombsheil into the ranks OF his
hearers by his last verse remark:
'sThe Lord knows there are reasons
enough to vote against the Democratic
party without bringing UP the league
OF nation"
Excepting his last statement, MFR.
Taft's address was received with great
interest and enthusiasm by tho huge
audience which filed the auditorium
and gallery. During his talk of nearly
