P0indexter FavorS
Withdrawal from
European Affairs
Outlines Policies He Supports in a
Speech Before Republican
County Committee.

Opposition to any arrangement which
would bind the United States to continue
sacrificing its money and the lives of
citizens for the assistance of Europe was
expressed by United States Senator Miles
Poindexter, of Washington, a candidate for
the Republican nomination for President
in speech last night at a meeting of the
New York County Republican Committee
at Bryant Hall.
Senator Poindexter declared that the is
sue between the Republican and Demo
cratic parties, as expressed in the present
covenant of the League of Nations, was
whether the United States should go into
union with Europe when il had Been
separated from such union by the wal
for independence. He asserted that Il was
now sought to have the United States
sign the war debt of. all the allied coun-
tries.
II fail to see why, having saved the
civilization of Europe, we should. go on
contributing to her support he said. II
should think the obligation would be all
the other way"
Senator Poindexter summarized his con-
ception of the issues now before the Amer
lean people and the position the Repub-
lican party should take upon them as
follows
THE re-establishment of the govern
ment upon an American basis and the
preservation OF American independence
against the proposed union with Europe.
Immediate peace with all the world
and the restoration OF full commercial re-
lations with all countries.
elimination of European racial and
domestic politics from American domestic
affairs and the concentration of the at
tention and resources of the American
government upon the interests OF the
American people.
1.-The establishment of, orderly gov
ernment and international obligations in
Mexico.
The emancipation of American labor
and industry from the tyranny of the
closed shop and the settlement of indus
trial disputes by law instead of by
violence and intimidation
The committee authorized call for un-
official primaries to be held in the club
houses in the various Assembly districts
on February 10, between two o'clock in
the afternoon and ten o'clock in the even
ing, to elect delegates to the unofficial
State convention to be held in Carnegie
Hall on February 10.
