PACT PRINCIPLE
IS GOOD, HOOVER
DECLARES HERE
Tells Columbia Club Crowd
Party Responsibility Is
Main Issue.

RELOCATING the League Of Nations to
the background Herbert Hoover, IN Re
publican address at the Columbia Club
this afternoon declared that ''the major
issue today and for the future Of our
country is party responsibility.
1.-THE Democratic party has failed IN
its responsibilities" the former national
food administrator and defeated candi-
date for the Republican presidential
nomination declared.
"The Republican party has made GER
tain definite promises to the country If
It be placed in government.
"The question at issue is: Shall the
political parties be made to assume the
responsibilities for their actions and
promises. both now and in the fuSure p
SEES MANY GOOD
POINTS IN TREATY.
Turning to the e0venant Of the League
Of Nations, he declared:
my personal view is that some OF
the articles IN the present treaty must
be abandoned and some modined, but
a great many parts of the present treaty
are good and are intertwined with the
stability of the world.
81 have no doubt our Democrats
friends will argue that they are mar
of the unmodihed covenant Of the League
Of Nations.
''They are seeking martyrdom on g
false premise.
'There is but one principle involved
and that is the preservation OF peace by
organized international action
"All else merely involves methods Of
reaching this great object and some oi
fha rnafhndu fnHau n rdpf
by the majority of our people as be-
ing dangerous methods.
Compromise on method is the essence
of statesmanship that would plant the
foundations Of principle solidly upon
the rock of public support.
'The dispute has not been one Of prin-
ciple. for the Republican party has sup
ported and does support the principle.
"The contention has been over methods
and on methods men must divide and
good craftsmanship viii compromise"
VIEWS ARE SIGNIFICANT
SINCE HARDING .OUTBURsT.'
Mr.. Hooyer's stand in thus arguing
that the Republican party is in favor
Of the principles upon which the league
was formed, but differs from Democratic
ideas as to the method of putting them
into effect is of national interes. in view
Of Mr.. Hardings recent declaTation tina;
he has 'turned his back upon the league
and can not scrap what has already
been scrapped."
Before his address Mr.. Hoover declined
to be drawn into a discussion of Sena-
tor Harding's unqualified declaration that
he opposed the league at Des stoines
Thursday.
"You viii find all that I have to say
upon the subject in my address," he

'PROHIS' WONDER
TT THEY LOST
A CANDIDATE
Resent Effort of Anti-SaIOon
League Officials to Deliver
Party Vote.

Prohibitionists Of Indiana were elated
today when they found that the Anti
Saloon League branch of the Republican
party had not succeeded through the ef-
forts of Il. s. Schumacher and others in
depriying them of candidate for Sena-
tor.
ANNOUNCEMENT was being made In the
few newspapers of Indiana that are sup
porting james Z. Watson. that Mrs. Culla
Vayhineer had announced her intention
of Withdrawing as the Prohibition candi-
date for Senator.
There was considerable doubt expressed
as to whether her withdrawal at this
time was possible those who doubted
being Of the on'nlvn that withdrawal
must be fled within three uays frvm the
time the certificate Of nomination is fled
With the secretary Of state.
The certificate OF Mrs. Vayhinger's s
nomination was fled with the secretary Of
state last Monday by the Rev. Charles
+. Kroft and +. W. Clarke.
QUESTION PUT TO
SECRETARY OF STATE.
The question was taken Up with the
Secretary Of state today by representa-
uyes OF the Prohibition party who re
sent the efforts OF the Anti Saloon League
officials in Indiana 20 deliver the PrOh!-
hilton party 70 senator Watson.
Mrs yayhlnger will not be allowed 20
withdraw her candidacy as requested OF
the Secretary Of State. according to the
law as explained By Dirrelle Clancy,
clerk Of the State election commission.
The telegram requesting permission to
withdraw from the senatorial race was
received Friday afternoon In the Office
Of the Secretary Of State, and today was
handed 10 him by one Of his assistants
who had received the telegram, according
20 Mr. Clancy
The law as translated By Mr.. Chancv
points out that no candidate may with

RECALLS WATSON
ADDRESS ~ GARY.
In this connection prohibitlonists have
brought TO light n stenograDhic report
OF a speech made at Gary, June 20, 1908,
when Mr. Watson said;
"My fellow citizens, want 20 be
frank I am not Prohlbitonlst. The
Republican party r. not a Prohibition
party"
In spite Of this assertion ana a long
record OF opposition to prohibition in
the Senate, Mr.. watson Is now being
touted by the paid agents OF the Anti
Saloon League as the choice Of Prohibit
tionists for Senator from Indiana.
Prohibitionlsts deny that the Eenti-
ment in theirs and are frankly asserting
that there Is every indication TINT the
Republican organization has~made a deal
with certain Anti Saloon League officers
for the support of their candidates this
campaign, by the terms Of which they re-
fuse to be bound.

the local authorities could reach Linken-
felter II any further action was taken
