Women Praise Harding
For Welfare Program
Voters Publication Calls His
Pledge Most Remarkable

PrOnOuncement

The League Of Women Voters ex-
pressed enthusiasm in the current is
sue of The Woman Citizen for the pub
lie welfare program Of Senator Har-
ding, as outlined on Social Justice
Day from the Marion porch.
1T was by far the most remarkable
pronouncement any candidate for Presi-
dent ever presented on social REFORM
the editorial reads. "Mr. Harding
stepped considerably in advance of his
own party platform in pledging him
self to do his utmost to bring about
certain pressing reforms which have
hitherto been avoided and evaded by
men in legislative posts. He declares
for a Federal department of public
welfare, which in itself is noble pro-
posal and in execution would be of
tremendous value to the people Of his
country.
mo worker for social betterment can
fail to be highly lratified by the atti-
tude taken by Mr.. Harding, and in the
event Of his election will anticipate
cordial and helpful relationship with
the White House. The League of
Wom~ n Voters has reason to rejoice
that man of Mr.. Harding's standing
and political aspirations has indorsed
so large portion of its adopted and
Legislative program"

Cummings, former Democratic national
chairman, asserted to- day in an address,
before the Indiana Democratic Club in
this city. He urged that America

The Republican party turned to
bitter partisanship with the declara-
tlon of the armistice with Germany.
Mr.. Cummings said. He charged its
leaders with being more interested in
party success than in national honor.
This was followed, he asserted, by in
ternational complication of a perplex-
ing and sinister character.
Every enemy of society, peace or
civilization took quick advantage of
the period of hesitancy," Mr.. Cum
mings declared.
I'VE have now passed through two
years of domestic and international
chaos" he concluded. "There is only
one way out, the clear path of duty.

AUBURN. N. Y. Oct. Ex-senator
James w. Wadsworth jr in a speech
here tonight emphasized the necessity
OF providing peace time training for
young men of the country to make
them available for instant call in time
of war.
I'VE must give the citizen. soldier
an opportunity" he said, "to learn the
military arts and train himself so that
when the government needs him and
takes him for the defense of the coun-
try he may have decent chance to
survive in the performance of his
duty"
Senator Wadsworth said he favored
statutory recognition of the citizen
soldier, giving him place in the army
of the United States.
Charging extravaganza in past ad-
minlstrations of the army and navy,
the Senator pointed to the record of
the present Republican Congress and
committees in charge of military and
naval affairs, which, he said, had saved
the country a billion dollars in CON
nectlon with the army alone.

Senator Hiram Johnson, who arrived

in Ohio, Illinois and Wisconsin, gave
his unqualified approval of Senator

New York Speech Still Possible
Whether this is to be the final speak

thrashed out. Senator Harding indi-
Gated the New York trip was still in
allegiance. The Republican National
committees speakers bureau, however,
IS reserving Madison Square Garden
for October 81 for meeting to be ad-
dressed by Senator Harding.
The withdrawal from the Illinois
gubernatorial race of Lieutenant Gov
ernor John Oglesby has so cleared up
the political situation in that state that
1t was decided this morning to add
several Illinois stops to the schedule Of
the present trip. A Chicago trip is
now possible if Senator Harding con-
sents to leave Ohio again.
