Everybody Weary of Present
Administration, Coolidge
Says in Campaign
Speech.
COUNTRY HAD ENOUGH.
Nation Has Earned Contempt OF Other
Peoples Because OF Democratic
Visionary
Policy.

/ United Press Leased Wire Service
! BOSTON, Mass, Aug. GS.-"Every,
body is tired of the present admins
tration," particularly its conduct of
our affairs abroad" Governor Calvin
| Coolidge, vice presidential nominee,
declared in opening the republican
campaign in Massachusetts with a
speech at Braves Field today.
! "The country is not only weary of,
but completely exhausted by, and dis
gusted with all doctrinacies and Wis
ionaIies," he said. 'Jt has had
enough of heeting fancies; it wants
something permanent The country
has been cured of taking the platform
of the democrats seriously, having in
mind the promises of the last two
platforms and the totally dissimilar
performances of that party
Coolidge said the democrats, in their
San Francisco convention, intended
to indorse the platform, but really re-
pudiated it through selection of their
candidate for president
He said that '.the nation is tired of
the present administration because it
has earned for us the contempt of the
other peoples of the earth" and con-
tinued:
'Jt is no answer to say that the
reason for this is that the administra-
ton has not had free hand. 1t had
a free hand in Mexico. Our downfall
began in Mexico Because of our
failure to protect and assist Ameri-
cans, our country stands dishonored
in Mexico. We interfered, but inter
fered Intellectually.
.I am reviewing facts and drawing
the perfectly obvious conclusion that
the policy of the present administra-
ton, which their candidate is bound.
by promise and by necessity, to con-
tinue, can only result in continuation
of the discredit of the nation abroad,
the governor said, because it forces
on the country the choice between
contempt and state Of war abroad,
or the ratification of the league of ma
tions without being fully American
lied. It is the policy of the repub-
lican party to recognize the necessity
of remedy that does not sacrifice
any American interest, and to apply
that remedy"
Pointing to a conference between
Cox and President Wilson at the
white house on July 10, Coolidge de-
clared "the public might have no
doubt as to the complete agreement of
these men on these issues"
During all this time the war has
not yet ended" he said. 1--WE have
had a victory but the world is with
out peace; Europe is not yet pacified."
In closing, Coolidge said:
Americans are entitled to the po-
sition in the world won for them by
the men who followed Washington, by
the gallant lads who fought on old
Ironsides, by the victorious forces OF
Pershing and Sims. That position
the republican party proposes to Sc
cure and maintain"

| 'It is not uncommon for tkc advo-
Gates of the league OF Versailles to
contrast unfavorably The Hague tri-
bunal upon the ground that it lacks
teeth.
''very well, then, lets put teeth into
it"
IF in the Versailles league there
can be found machinery which could
be appropriated. by all means let it
be appropriated" he went on.
II would take and combine all that
is good and excise all that is bad
from both organizations"
This statement, Harding said, is
broad enough to include the suggas-
tion that if the league is SO inter
woven with the peace OF Europe that
its good must be preserved to sta
bilize the peace of that continent,
then it can be amended or revised so
that we may still have remnant of
world aspirations in 1913 builded into
the worlds highest conception Of
helpful cooperation in the ultimate
realization.
Il believe humanity" he said,
would welcome the creation of an
international association for confer
ence and a world court whose verdicts
upon justiciable questions this coun-
try in common with all nations would
be both willing and able to uphold.
The decision of such a court or the
recommendations OF such confer
ence could be accepted without sac
riffcing on our part or asking any
other power to sacrifice one iota Of
its nationality"
Should he be elected president,
Harding intends, he said, calling into
conference the ablest minds Of the
country without regard to profession
or party, to formulate a definite,
practical plan along the lines already
indicated for the consideration Of the
controlling foreign powers"
The suggestion that America I'M
dertake the work Of redrafting an in
ternational code was recently made
in a statement by Niscount Grey, for
mer British ambassador to the United
States, Harding said.
Had the league been ratified, we
would already have been called upon,
under article ten, to fulfill the obi
CATION, to preserve the territorial in
tegrity of Poland, Harding said.
"The council of the league of ma.
tions would have reasoned, and rea-
soned correctly, that the United
States could furnish munitions, and
IL necessary the men to Withstand the
hordes advancing from Russia far
more easily than could the exhausted
nations of Europe" he argued. There
would have been a moral obligation

LONDON, Aug. 2S-The time limit
for Russia's satisfactory reply to
the AngloTtalian ultimatunl having
expired last night, interest centered
today in indication by the British gov
ernment as to whether the answer re-
ceived Thursday, fulfilled the require
ments. ...a. ..
The balshevik note was being
studied in the foreign Office and a
copy had been Forwarded to Premier
Lloyd-George in Lucerene. 1t was as
sumed that an identical note had been
sent to italy.
Although the Russians withdrew
their demand for establishment Of
civil militia in Poland rs part Of
the peace agreement with that coun-
try-the principal cause of the en-
tente ultimaum-there was a disposi
tion in some quarters to regard the
boshevik communication in the light
Of a studied insult to Great Britain
and italy. In the more important
matter of re-esta blishing peace, how
ever, it was believed this would he
passed over and that the British gov
would lend its influence to
bringing about complete cessation Of
hostilities between Russia and Poland.
