COX CAMPAIGNI IS
MAKING HEADWAY,
EXPERT DECLARES
Harding Still Has Lead in
Race. But Is Losing Ground
at Hallway Mark, David
Lawrence Asserts.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.
(Speclai Correspondent Of the News
Sclmltar)

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2S.--Nearly two
OF the four months OF the presidential
campaign have elapsed and there is
not much reason to change as yet the
forecast OF the probable outcome which
followed upon the two national con-
pentions Judged by reports from all
parts OF the country from Democra tic
as well as Republican sources as mat
iers stand today Senator Harding, the
Republican nominee has the lead, and
Were the election held this week he
would win, though hardly by the same
margin that he might have secured
when he was first nominated.
In other words, the campaign Of Gov,
Cox has made some Roadway. whether

ton, the answer TO which lies In the
campaign yet 10 be made by both can
aidates and the workers in their be-
half. The Democrats are blazing away
as intensely as they can with a clumsy
organization, The Republicans are hold
ing back with a smooth working ma
chinery that can be increased In speed
at any time, The Republicans say they
don't think much OF August drives and
declare they prefer rather to rely on
the drive made in October
But the race between Cox and Hard
ing can best be described by taking as
an analogy the recent Yacht race be-
=
was given seven minutes handicap in
point Of time SO that her competitor
could even cross the finish line first
hut still not win. Senator Harding has
practically a two-year handicap. He
has behind him all the strength Of the
Republican offensive which began with
the capture OF congress In the 1918
elections and has continued ever since.
The Democrats, on the other hand, ad-
mittedly were on the defensive and de-
pended nevertheless on their leader
Woodrow Wilson, for most Of the fight
ing, Unfortunately, however. as so
often happens In football teams when
a star player Is absent from the game
or injured. the rest OF the team goes
to pieces President Wilson felt II
necessary to go TO Eurape TO negotiate
personally with the powers Of Europe
and during his absence nobody was del
egated TO handle the defensive OF the
political fight or even to conduct an
offensive, Senator Lodge and his
colleagues managed continually to bonn
bard the president and his policies while
Mr.. Wilson himself was so busy with
the peace negotiations that he had very
little time to mend fences at home even
by cable or letter.
