cox MAKES NO COMMENT
 AS HE REcEIvEs RETURNS

Dayton. Ohio, Nov. 2.-other than casting his vote early in the day, Gov ernor Cox, the democratic presidential candidate, apparently took only a passive interest in the election, but tonight he went to his newspaper office to watch the returns
 The governor was smiling when he reached the office at 7.30 D. rn., accom- panied by Mrs. Cox, but made no com ment on the election. At that time, the newsboys we're in the streets with the first extras, carrying news unfavorable to the candidate Outside his office, a big crowd had gathered to await the record of the vote, and it greeted the governor with cheer. Simultaneously a bulletin from his office showed that the governor had carried twelve of the 265 precincts in Montgomery country including Dayton, by three hundred votes
 During the day. most of which was spent at his home near here, the Ec srnor seemingly paid no attention to thc sarly scattering returns. His first in. formation came when he reached his of flee and then he offered no comment

 The senator's trip to Texas will begin Friday night or Saturday morning and Mir. Harding will arrive ta Point Isabel, Tex, near Brownsville, next Monday. He plans to spend about twelve days there and then leave for Panama by way of New Orleans.
 His stay in the canal zone will last about a week during which he will make first-hand study of local conditions and particularly of the tolls system for American ships. He has advocated throughout the campaign a repeal of these tolls and it is expected he will collect in- formation on that policy.
 Leaving Colon about Dec 1, he will land at New Orleans and will travel by train to Bedford, Va. where he speaks Dec. at an Elks' celebration After. ward he is oreturn to Marion to remain under present plans most of the time unti March 4. He may take a trip durins this interim, however. to some southern resort
 As president-elect, Mir Harding stil would be a United States senator. bu his friends say he probably would remain away from Washington and devote hi attention to the choice of a cabinet ant formulation of his administration policies | Election of a republican governor in Ohi would enable him to resign from the sen ! ate on Jan. 1st, when the term of Gov ernor Cox expires. and when the new gov ernor would appoint a republican senate
 to the vacancy.

 HIS ASSURANCE OF VICTORY

Boston, Nov. 2.-Governor Coolidge re- ceived returns from the election tonight with friends at the Hotel Touraine Early in the evening he issued a statement thanking the voters for their support and expressing assurance of victory.
 The statement follows:
 Tt is with great deal of gratitude that have seen by the incoming returns the extent of the victory and have real ized it's source. While I rejoice in it's great proportions, rejoice even more in the nature of the support We have re- ceived. It means the end of a period which has seemed to substitute words for things, and the beginning of a period of real patriotism and true national honor. It means a return to the Constitution, and end of extravaganza, and govern ment by the people at home; abroad it means the end of all ambiguous and vis- ionary schemes and beginning of rec ognition of the real and true world re- latonship whether based on the pro. posed league or some new agreement is lmmaterial, and development of law which are the sole avenues to an abiding peace.
 This has been the republican policy voiced by it's record, it's platform, it's can. didate and now endorsed by the people l believe there will be a return of indus trial progress. The great confidence il the leadership exhibited by Senator Harding, which has been steadily in creasing has been shown to be warranted i by the result of the election and will be ] further justified by his administration. cannot commend too much his conduct O. the campaign. It has been magnificent
 T am deeply appreciative of the vote Of Massachusetts. It is needless to say offer my thanks to all who have con- tributed to the great result, the, national state and local committees of men and women. To the women of the nation il due a new debt of gratitude, and finally want to express my appreciation of tn, great courtesy the press of both partie, ha sextended to me.
 "The issue was above parties. Tn victory cannot be designated by any oth CT word than American"
 Mrs. Coolidge received the return with the governor and also issued statement in which she said:
 This has been my first experience i taking part in election. I am greatl gratiied at the result I know Senate Harding is a great campaigner becaus \ he is a man of such fine true character That stands out in all his speeches.
 am sure he will make a great president But I am equally sure from the reports of the people who have had the good for tune to visit Marion that the impressio Mrs. Harding has made on her guest has spread all over the country anC made the people certain that they want ed her to be the first lady of the land.
 The women of Massachusetts unde the leadership of Mrs. Bird gave ou cause wonderful support. I am yer Thankful for the result to all who hav
 helped. to secure it, to our women es. pecially"

They will return Co Marion during early December. The senator's statement follows:
 Assuming that the early returns are wholly dependable. do not hesitate to cay that I am pleased. of course I am happy io utter my gratitude but l am not exultant. It iz not a personal victory. 1t is a renewed expression of confident Americanism and a national call to the republican party.

 During the day he outwardly had con- cerned himself very little with the pend- ing national decision.

 As throughout the whole campaign, Mrs Harding was an active figure during the evening about the candidates head 1 quarters. She had familiarized herself with local conditions in many states and she studied the returns with an eye for political detail
 The senator's father, Dr. George T Harding, and two of his sisters, Miss Abi- gail Harding end Mrs. Caroline Votaw also were in tlie family circle and many friends from about town dropped in dur ing the evening to pay their respects and chat with the Hardings.

STATEMENT BY CHAIRMAN
 DEM. NATIONAL COMMITTEE

New York. Nov 2.-The following statement was issued by Chairman White of the democratic national com mittee:
 "The abandonment by some of the most prominent republican leaders of the very league of nations which they help ed to construct has been successful The people have succumbed to the confusion wrought by these distinguished men, and to the misrepresentation of those who would not and did not understand the league of nations. I hope 1t may yet be rescued from the political morass and be saved to mankind.
 No one has any occasion for bitter ness or of recrimination. What the whole people decide the whole people must accept. The democratic national committee abides by the result cheerful ly if with foreboding. Senator Harding is the peoples president. Tn this election republican propagsn- da has been shrewdly directed to induce 1 the descendants of six European nations 1 to vote as six European nations instead |, of one American nation. They have in veigied these Americans to vote with | their thoughts across the sea instead Of on this country. Our common task must be to coalesce these groups again The fate of Irish freedom has been settled adversely. Men and women of Irish blood have voted for the candidate who has declared the Irish question to be a domestic problem of Great Britain | in which we can have no official con 1 cern. With their support the American people have returned the Irish problem to Downing Street. They have endorsed, T am sad to say a separate peace with tGermany.
 For the first time in eight years a Republican party is face to face with the task of constructive legislation and more than that the measures of reconstruction for which the country has been asking a republican congress for two years iu tvain. They must change a negative rec ord int ca positive, and in this task they have the best wishes of all who love their country.
 AS the national chairman of a party which is and has always been for Amer !ica first. I have sent te.egrams of con lgratulation 10 Senator Harding, Governor Coolidge and MT. Hays. I wish then success"
 Mr. Whites telegrams of congratula- tion follow:
 -' Senator Warren G. Harding Marion, tOhio. The American people have over twhelnlingly chosen you. Accept my con lgratulations and best wishes for a sue leessfuf leadership of this great nation iu
 it's critical hour.''
