 MARION, O.. Oct. 31-In a final campaign statement Senator Harding declared Tuesdays election would turn on two clearly drawn issues-the Paris league of nations and a constructive domestic policy. The league issues as presented by the Democrats, said the Republican nominee, could be summed up simply in this question:
 Shall we enter the Paris league Of nations. assuming among other obliga tions. the obligations of article ten2"
 To this query, he said. the Demo 'crats answered: Yes and the Repub licans answered No"
 The Republican candidate asserted also that the country already had an swered No and that n consequence. the Democrats had SOU. .3ht to deceive the people as to the real nature of the league issue by making it appear that the Republicans were opposed to any international associat ton at all. In do mestic affairs, he declared there was a cleancut issue between the "folliesT of the Wilson policies and definite constructive policy proposed in detail by the Republicans.
 Senator Harding also made public telegram to all Republican nominees for the senate, saying that the people everywhere must understand that choice of a Republican senate will be contribution to a United America ready to go forward to new confi- dence and new achievements"
 The candidate has made his last speech before election and the state ment was issued as final word on the issues of the campaign. It's text follows:
 Final Statement
 Two issues are made by the voters in this campaign. One is the foreign policy of the United States. The other ! is the domestic policy of the United States.
 Between our Democratic opponent and the American people who arc sup porting the Republican party these issues are clearly drawn.
 There has been a steady attempt to deceive the people as to the issue of our foreign policy. There has been an attempt by the Democratic leaders to make the American people believe that the Republican policy is againsz America entering into a fraternity Of nations to prevent war and to co- operate for peace. This is 8 deeess. and, of course, is an attempt to hind the people to the league of nations issue as 1t was framed bv the Demo Ecratic leaders and by tho Dcnspcra tir platform.
 ''The issue as presented by ,hssnen- oc~atic administration ana it's repre- sentativess in this campaign E simply the question:
 Shall we enter the Paris ieagne of nations assuming among other ob- legations the obligation of article \ es
 The answer of the Democratic group is Yes. The answer Of the Repub- lican party and it's candidate is No
 The reason for answering No to
 the question drawn by our opponents is that America is not ready to mort lgage her conscience to the Old World to engage to send her boys to war to carry on an old European controversy
 or place her resources at the beck and l, call of a group of shrewd diplomats acting for an armed alliance masked under the benevolent title of the league of nations.
 America has already given her an l swer to the proposal to give mp our
 nationality and our flag. The answer is No and No is the mark Of the Republican party
