From the government side, it was
stated at the home Office that the lord
mayor had not been fed last night. It
is reported that the prison doctors
were under instruction to take all
possible means to keep him alive but
that during consciousness he resisted
attempts to administer nourishment.
Their attitude Is, it was stated, that
when the lord mayor is unconscious
and unable to resist they are carrying
food.
The Self Determination leagues ac-
count Of the feeding said that the
lord mayor, upon regaining con-
seriousness, declared that the taste Of
meat Juice remained and said to a
sister near him:
"They tricked me. and didn't

cluded.
"The meat juice given the lord
mayor during his delirium on the
sixty-ninth day of his fast was the
first nourishment which had passed

lam Howard Taft in his first political
speech in this campaign gave to his
audience here "a lengthy explanation
why he has not Joined with other pro-
League of Nations republicans in sup
porting Governor Cox and Why he
confidently believes the election Of
senator Harding will mean Americas
entrance into the present League Of
Nations. Here is an excerpt from q
stenographic copy of the address:
''Mr. Harding's attitude upon the
league has been this: That in an earn
est desire to help the other nations
ne was willing to vote for the league
with republican reservations and he
did 50 twice. In anticipation Of execu-
tive responsibility, however, and in
tttattve, he does. not wish to submit
the Wilson league to the senate. He
prefers to negotiate with the leading
powers now in the league to revise and
amend the league by an agreement
with those powers before submitting
the matter to the senate. In his speech
Of August % and in his speeches at
indianapolis and Green Castle, Indi-
ana. this last week he has made it
clear that THIS country should help in
an association to" avoid war and that
he is willing to bring about a modified
or revised league avoiding those fea-
lures of the Wilson league to which
he has made objection. His insistence
ts that the league should center around
a; court of justice, and Mr.. Roots in
ternational court Of justice furnishes
basis for his proposal.
Unfair Expressions.
Expressions that Mr.. Harding has
'scrapped' the league or has 'repudiat-
ed 1t are grossly unfair expressions.
He has vigorously opposed Article x
and the Monroe doctrine provision but
he has not repudiated it's other pro-
visions and purposes. All inference
that he opposed to. any league or op-
posed to the present league, when
these features which he deems to be
Objectionable are removed, and when
other features are added that he
deems to be necessary does him in
justice.

ernment as its rules are contained in
the constitution Of the United States.
feel. therefore, that though favored
the Wilson league and hoped that 1t
might be ratified, and favored Article
x and hoped that it might escape

coulu not Oe ratlned, l urged as

the reservations offered by tho repub-
licans in November 1919 and in Feb
