CANADIANS WANT
 A DEEP SEA RACE Propose Contest of Real Boats Regardless of the
 Weather Conditions
By Asssclatsa Pre,s

Montreal, August 2s.-"An open letter. to Sir Thomas Lipton, urging him to withdraw his declared intention to com pete again for the Americas S cup in 1921 or l922, in favor of a Canadian chal- lenger, or to agree on a proposal to make the next race triangular contest" was made public here today by A. c. Ross, Canadian yachtsman
 MT Ross, who is promoter of a scheme under which Canadian yacht. publicly subscribed for and to be designed manned and skippered by Canadians, shall compete through a recognized yacht club, also asks the Irish baronat "at the same time to mutually press upon the New York Yacht Club the great desirablity for change from a semi-inside to an altogether outside sail ing course and for an entirely different class of yacht for these races"
 The failure of Shamrock " and Reso- lute to measure up to the requirements for really stiff breeze" Mir Ross added, has resulted in dwindling public inter- est, due to the funk of both yachts on that one particular date when conditions offered an opportunity for prime test Of both construction and seamanship."

 no question hut what the citizen
 ship of the states I have visited is
 overwhelmingly in favor of the
 league. Many told me the interest
 today k deeper than six months
 ago. Particularly Is this true of the
 attitude of the women.
 "The west and northwest demand recognition from those for whom they will cast their vote in Novembe They feel they are entitled to hear the issues between the two parties as the party they demand that Governor Cox and Senator Harding come to them and let them choose for themselves what their votes shall be after they have listened to the candidates and had an oppor- tunity of sizing up the issues involved.
 WANT TO SEE THEM
 The anxiety to see the candidates was evidenced by large and enthusiastic receptions wherever l went. At num- Der of places in the northwest noun tains l greeted by men and women who had driven fifty miles and more to hear som mething in regard to the plan of the democratic party.
 ''The west is alert and progress
 siyc. The people are thinking. They
 will not permit their minds to be
 befuddled on the question at issue
 between the two parties. We can
 ask no more and are ready to abide
 by their decision In Novembery
 Mr. Roosevelt said that immediately after his Indianapolis speech he will go to Columbus for conference with Governor Cox and to give him first hand information on conditions affect ing the sentiment of the people as l found it."

.LABOR'S LEADERS
 |NDORSE COX AND
 HIS PUBLIC RECORD
Gompers, Woll and Morri- son Say Ohio Governor Has Stood By Poor Man
 at All Times
By HUGH w. ROBERTS Washington Bureau Tho Age Herald
 500 Davidson Buiidinq

Washington, August 29.- Special. - The non-partisan political campaign committee of the American Federation of Labor, consisting of Samuel k Gompers, Matthew Woll and Frank Morrison, finds, as a re- suit of profound study of their actual records and their speeches, James M. Cox with out a single exception, satisfac- tory, and Warren G. Harding, sorely wanting.
 Announcement to such effect is con tained in document, released for pub lication tomorrow morning, entitled, For President Harding or Cox?" Ad- herents of organized labor are en. Joined to Read. Think.. Choose!
 Respecting every bill in which
 labor was interested, Governor Cox,
 as a member of Congress, and for
 three terms governor Of Ohio, Oc-
 cupied a position favorable to la
 bor, the report declares. Senator
 Harding, the contrary, as
 member of the Senate during three
 Congresses, made the following
 score: Favorable 7, unfavOrabie 10,
 paired unfavorabIy 1.
 THE STRONG ENDORSEMENT
 In concluding, the statement reads:..
 There can be but one conclusion based on careful and impartial sur vey of the actions and declarations of the candidates. Governor Cox has shown himself possessed of a fuller un- derstanding of the needs of the work Ing people, reader response to their needs and their proposals and broad es statesmanship in his public discus sims of the problems of the industrial world.
 'In addition to his superior under standing, Governor Cox is a candidate on a platform which labor has declared marks a measure of progress not found in the republican platform and the blanks of which more nearly approxi- mate the desired declaration of human rights than do the blanks found in the republican platform.
 Not only in the specific utterances relating directly to questions held para rsdunt by lahor.,ts the comparison la fVOFaDIe 10 1OseIuOf SoA. litSA AptoSIcS sive and constructive viewpoint holds throughout his declaration of public questions, though he slips at times in- to that ambiguity which unfortunately has marked to greater or less degree. the platforms of both parties and the of both candidates.
 RECORD OF FIDELITY
 "However, the viewpoint of Cow ernor Cox is, we find. more clearly expressed and less open to the criticism of lack of clarity. M0re- over, as an argument that admits of no qualifying or denial, there is @GovernOr Cox's record as governor of Ohio during which he acted on fifty-nine measures of interest to labor without acting on a single one adversely to labor.
 ssThis is a record of fidelity to humanity. of understanding of the needs of the great mass of the peO- pie, that has few equals in Ameri- can political life. "The American labor movement asks l of no man a pledge of political con
