ton to it's members, but content
itself with mere publication of the
facts later on. With this action in
view. the officials of the Anti-Saloon
League here decline to express them
selves as to the treatment of the
liquor question in the speech of &C.
ceptance today.
Labor for Democrats.
Here in Ohio labor seems to be in
clined to turn to the democratic ticket.
Especially railroad labor. which is a
considerable element of the voting
population, both because of the vote
of Senator Harding for the Esch-
Cummins railroad law and because of
Gov Cox's record for securing legisla-
ton favorable to labor during his
three administrations of the gov
|ernor's Office. Evidently the positions
the governor took in his speech on
labor and employment questions were
taken with view to further encour-
age this support. No doubt what he
said will offend many members of the
employing element, but the governor
never hesitated to go in the face of
protests of employers on such mat
tiers.
One of the most important laws
concerning labor put through while
Mr.. Cox has been in the governors
office was the workmen's compensa-
ton law. most vigorously opposed by
the combined large employers of the
state. But he dismissed the large
delegations of the opponents. who be-
sieged his Office with the statement
that they would all come in and
thank him after the law was in
operation and had demonstrated what
it would do. Probably none of them
has actually done this. but no at
tempt has ever been made to re-
peal it, and it seems to be generally
acceptable to employers now.
Thrown Open to Criticism.
The governors promise that if
elected it will be his first care to see
that war taxation, which he believes
to be excessive and unnecessary. is
very materially reduced, and that he
will take steps to see that the cost of
living is brought down have brought
out suggestions here that he has
thrown himself open to criticism in
that the national administration now
in power at Washington and in posi-
ton to do these things at once. has
not done so, and in spite of the fact
that it has not has been given his
hearty support. at least, he is not on
record as having protested against its
omission to do so.
But the magnifying of the league
of nations question into the para
mount issue of a the campaign is
looked upon here as the important
feature of the speech of acceptance
at Dayton today. 1t is not overlooked
that this action will bring republican
leaders who are distinctly opposed to
the league proposition, and had not
looked with favor on the platform on
which Senator Harding was nomi-
mated, such as Senators johnson and
Borah, out vigorously to fight, on the
stump for the election of Senator
Harding, and may put some of the
democratic leaders who opposed the
league, Senator Reed of Missouri, for
instance, in the ranks of the repub-
lican fighters for this campaign.
