TAFT BLAMES WILSON 2
 FOR WRECKING LEAGUE
Admits He Himself Favored It But Presidents Arti-
 cle K Killed It

Seattle. Wash. Oct. 11.--Former President Taft when shown tho state ment made public by Governor Cox at Springfield, H.. last night. said he recently had given permission for the publication of correspondence be- tween President Wilson and himself during tho drafting of tho league of nations covenant. He also declared he had repeatedly referred to tho feet that the president had consulted with him when the league constitution was being drawn.
 Declaring ho had favored ac- ceptance of a league without reserva- tionJ and expressing disappointment | that the United States has not become n party to it. Mir. Taft held tho presi- dent responsible for the defeat of the plan.
 Tho president wrecked his own league,' he said, Inc wrecked it with Article x of which he iH the author. Personally l would stand for Article N because I am exceedingly anxious for a league to be established. At the same time tho league 10 enforce peace of which l was chairman had no articla x in ita prepa ration.
 "It had been clearly demonstrated that tho representatives of the people of this country will not stand for Article x. The stubbornness of the president in refusing 10 accept en- dorsement by the senate of the league covenant without Article x defeated the treaty.
 Now Mir Cox has swallowed Article \ and declares that as chief executive he would not approve tho league without it. That means that with Mir. Cox we shall get no league, for even if tho democrats elected every senatorial candidate which they have in the field. thy would not have enough to carry tho league without reservations.
 Harding on tho other hand has already voted twice for the league with reservations and promises that as president he will accept the cove nant without Article x or similar international agreement limiting arm aments. provide a court of arbitra- tion and d conference for discrssion of non n-judicial cases. That is ..xactly- what we want and that is what Hard ing as president will give us'
