chanel, in his letter, mo longer permits
me to assume the high functions with
which your confidence invested me upon
the occasion of the session Of the National
Assembly on January IL last.
The absolute obligation imposed upon
me to take complete rest makes it my
duty to no longer delay announcing to you
the decision / haze been compelled to
reach. 1t is infinitely painful, and it Is
with profound heart pangs that | re-
nounce the noble post OF which you deem
ed me worthy"

WAR, SAYS NJ ADOO
Points TO the Sweden Finland and
Poland-Lithuania Sub
mission.

New York, Sept. 22.-The Democratic
Campaign Committee was iubllant yes
tenday over the news from abroad that
the League of Nations was functlonlng at
the very time that Senator Harding, the
Republican Presidential candidate, Sena-
tor Hiram Johnson and other antl-Iseaguers
were proc,aiming that the League was a
fraud" and had been "scrapped." " For the
balance Of the campaign the committee
will make the most of the fact that pos
sible war has been averted between Sweden
and Finland and Poland and Lithuania
as the result Il action by the League OF
Nations.
While Republican leaders have been
declaring that the League of Nations
would cause wars and promote wars,
we have striking example of the fact
that the League of Nations Is actually
preventing wars, said William u. Me-
Adoo. eN-Secretary OF the treasury,
who is taking an active part IN the Dem
ocratic campaign. Sweden and FIN
land have agreed to submit their con-
troversy over the Aland Islands to the
Council of the League, and Poland and
Ilthuania agreed yesterday to suspend
hostilities and to submit their boundary
dispute 10 the Council of the League of
Nations.
"The Republican opposition to the
League is based upon conjecture and
misunderstanding as well as mlsrepre-
scntation OF the League. This will be
made clearer and clearer as the League
continues To function and with the
progress of events. 1t should be empha-
sized that the prevention OF these two
wars. which the League has Just attained
through the peaceful methods of arbl-
tration and inquiry, has been accom-
plished, notwithstanding the fact that
the United States has not yet joined the
League. With the moral influence of
active support of the league, the pre-
vention OF wars through peaceful methods
Of arbitration and inquiry will be made
sven more certain than now.
"The American people have always
been the champions of the peaceful settle
ment of international disputes through
arbitration. Surely they viii not be mis-
led into opposition to this great peaceful
organization, the League of Nations,
through purely linguistic arguments and
vague imaginations OF ionless political
leaders who are more intent upon gaining
he spoils Of reward of office than in con-
erying the peace OF the world and the
,ause of humanity.
Chairman George White of the Na-
tional Committee said:
''On the very day that the League of
Nations prevented one war and ended
another one, Senator Harding told some
porch pilgrims that the League was
'stupendous fraud But the honeymoon
az Misrepresentation against the League
Is about over. This sickening smash of
the truth against a falsehood yesterday
Is the beginning of series Of such col

lisions which will end in the election of the
candidates who support the League.
''In the same speech the Senator adj
mits that equal tolls through the canal is
a moral obligation But the platform
on which he was nominated proposes
breaking that obligation. Thus the Re-
publican candidate convicts his party
and platform of an immoral attitude, and
he convicts himself, too, because in his
speech of acceptance he said he just loved
the Americanism of the plank which
stands for treaty-breaking on the tolls
question"
