st. Joseph, Mo, Sept. Ex-senator
Warren G.. Harding, republican presi-
Dental nominee has presented no
substitute for the League of Nations

archies, the sudden ultimatum Of
secret diplomacy and the burden Of
extensive armaments,' Governor
James M. Cox declared here today
in his first speech in Missouri.
Again attacking his statement that
Ne had nothing of constructive
character" to of1er regarding the new
association of nations, Governor Cox
declared that the republican candi-
date did not dare to suggest to the
lnothers of America a return of pre-
war international relations.
