Gov ernor Harding, it added had reiterated ton men, while Secretary Houston de- nied that he was opposed to the for nation of export corporatios by the cot ton association.

 Senator Smith suggested a lower dis count rate for farmers owing to the time required for production of marketable crop and said Governor Harding had promised to take the matter under ad- yisement.
 Let the southern banks and mer- chants continue to cooperate with the farmers as they have been doing the senator's statement continued and the problem will be solved.

bORAH HAS HARD
 TIME SEEING THINGS
 AS HARDING DOES
Beats Around the Bush to Keep Out of Controversy, As Does the Republican
 Nominee
Br Associnied Press


 Danbury. Conn.,, October 1.-Sen-
 ator Borah ,of Idaho. told large
 audience here today that the re-
 publican party as ca party and re-
 gardless of the views of particular
 individuals. can be depended upon
 to maintain the 'uptrammelIed and
 unpawned independence of the.
 American republic.'' He promisd
 that there would be ssno comprom-
 ise on the principle of American
 sovereignty"
 He said that America, through the re- publican party, favors doing it's part in the family of nations but "the public conscience and not sighed contract must always determine our course in international affairs.
 In a statement issued before Athe meeting began, Senator Borah com mented on the reported assertion of Senator Harding that his views and those of Senator Borah and Johnson were in entire accord.
 From his eighteen months in the
 
 views" Senator Borah said. If he .tc- Icepts them then we are in perfect ac- cord"
 Declaring hi1nselfs unequivocally op- posed to an association with the na- tions of Europe. he said he had nothing to say in favor of the proposed sub stitutes for the League of Nations.
 "A league, concert, alliance, combin ation, partnership or~association-it lis all the same to me-" he declared, T always have opposed and always will oppose such an alliance, There can be no question of who 1 am supporting |for President. Cox favors going into the league, while Harding has declared in favor of staying out"
 Senator Borah began his speech by declaring he did not purpose to attack "the League of Nations which Pres ident Wilson went to Europe to get but to fight to the bitter end the one him.
 That league is not an American league" he continued. '1t is an Eu- Eropean league. It's purpose is not for peace, but for war. In the entire~cov- enant not one word is said of de- mocracy. It is the instrument of a military autocracy."
 Senator Borah attacked the league on four. counts. each of which he said unfitted it for American participation He declared that Pressdent Wilson's tprinciple of the freedom of the seas has been summafily withheld from peace confernece consideration. beca 1st England demanded the preservation oi her naval supremacy"
 Another of the Presidents fourteen points without which he quoted the president as saying America could cot participate," was that of peacetime fconscription. This. he said, likewise received no consideration. The zhird count of the senator's indictment was based on the secrecy which attended ! the framing of the covenant, despite the principle of ''open covenants openly arrived att The last count referred to the presidents declaration against i'm perialism
 Since President Wilson announced there should be no more land grab bling," declares the Senator. England has had 1,760,053 square miles of .er- Iritory added to her possessions. includ. ing 40,o00,000 people. The league would now ask us to guarantee Engiand.s ie. tention of every part of that territory
