Republicans Here Pleased at Hardings
Questions on eoxs Foreign Policies

Militant Republicans of Wayne coun=
ty expressed satisfaction today over
the pointed interrpgations which War
rem G. Harding, the Republican
nominee for president, directed at his
Democratic opponent, Governor Cox. w.
Senator Harding challenged Cover
nor Cox to say categorically where he
stands on Article 10, the Armenian
mandate and other problems wrapped
up in American participation in the
League of Nations.
Republicans here have insisted all
along that the great campaign issue
! centers on these questions.
Senator Hardings statement fol
lows:
The president and the Democratic
nominee for his successor are in con-
ference today and at the conclusion 1t
will Inevitably be announced that they
found themselves in complete accord
that harmony reigns, and unity is es-
tablished in the Democratic party. The
| significance Of that announcement will
not be missed. There is just one way
I that one can establish accord between
himself and the president-that IS, by
yielding his own opinion at every
point to that of the president. When
the nominee establishes accord with
the president, it means that the latter
is in charge Of the campaign and will
be the real force of the next admin
stration, IL it is Democratic.
Therefore, in connection with TIE
announcement Of harmony between
the president and the Democratic
nominee. it will be pertinent to in
quire the basis of the agreement.
