ROOSEVELT CHARACTERIZEs
 REPUBLICAN LEAGUE LIARS"

Canton, III, Oct. 11.-League liars" :" was the characterization applied by Franklin D. Roosevelt, democratic vice presidential candidate, in. address here tonight to hundreds of prominent repub- licans who in their private and bus1ness life are models of rectitude and who would not stop to deceive, but who are daily making deliberate and malicious nisstatements about the league of na- tions."
 Today they meet with creers and ap- plause." he added, "as their cheap trick cry in cloaking the anti-league propa- ganda under a guise of patriotism for the moment appeals sto their hearers. Tn the tomorrow of the worlds history an other story will be written, and these same men will share the opprobrum or future generations with that little group of political obstructionists who blocked the passage of the league in the senate for petty political reasons.
 This fall American honor is at stake for the issue between the two candidates is now so clearly defined that there is no excuse for any voter who attempts to evade the issue.
 Everybody in Europe knows that tho league is a practical working organiza- tion that is making good. want to see the United States go into it and take the | leadership.
 If the campaign could continue fol | two months more, Senator Harding wouk either lose every state in the Union ol would have to retract and wholly aban don his present position. Even as it k 1 the swing of thinking voters from Hard 1 ing to Cox has made Governor CoNS

LITHUANIAN SITUATION
 OyERSHADoWs PEACE MEET

Riga, Oct. 11.-lBy The A. P) The Lithuanian situation, accentuated by the occupation of Wilma, for the moment is overshadowing the Polish-Soviet peace conference. The Lithuanians here have issued a statement attacking the Poles and the entente including the United States, holding them responsible for the sending of supplies to Poland
 There is great interest heEe among en- tente observers as to whether the Poles are supporting General Zengouski and are sending supplies to Wilma for the troops under him which are occupying the ancient Lithuanian capital ? The belief seems to be growing that the occupation of Wilma is another cour like that of Colonel Avaloff- -Bermondt of last year owing to it's similarity to the Avaloff- -Bermondt campaign against Ri ga, which reached the banks of the Dvina at the citys gates
 Mondays Polish communication on the situation says:
 Tt is now clear that the action ot General Zelgouskis troops wus pno- voked by information from Wilma abou repressions and massacres agains Poles; especially families of officers anc soldiers of the Lithuanian and White Russian divisions"

 Discussing the shortage of female help the report says: ''The question is not mere matter of wages and hours This is demonstrated by the fact that a girl win work in an office at a considerably smaller wage than she could earn in a facxexx."

SENATOR HITCHCOCK
 SPEAKS IN BRIDGEPORT

Bridgeport. Conn. Oct. 11.-Speaking before a large audience here tonight Senator Gilbert Hitchcock. democratic leader in the senate for the treaty rati- hcaiion, charged the republican party wlih putting the protective tariff issue in cold storage That is the reason. de- clared Senator Hitchcock. the league of nations issue is before the people in sol- chm referendum. The treaty. continued the senator was held in congress ''in or der to force a campaign issue"
 Senator Hitchcock said in part:
 This is the first time the protective tariff has not been one of the great. fl not the greatest. issue between the two great parties. For some reason. how ever, the N,nublican convention at Chi cago put the protective tariff issue in cold storage. Every other former re- publican convention had the courage tc boldly advocate the protective tariff as the sole means of salvation because la. boring men for years have voted the re. publican ticket under fear of the empty dinner pail
 Why did they not bring th-t issue out this time7 Because the democrati, party has ruled the country for six oi seven years under tariff for revenu, only in a period of the greatest prosper E ness men have never had such a hizl degree of prosperity as in the past si; years. so they had 10 put the protective tarin in cold storage. Then there wa the money question and banking ant currency matters. That also had 10 b abandoned In this campaign. You knoy the history Of the past few years. whef inc democratic party went into office il | 1912 it found the nation cursed with tn i worst financial system of any civilize nation.
 We believe there are a large numbe of republicans who believe in the leagu | of nations. who will cross the party line and vote for the democratic candidat I for president of the United States Tn ! council of nine nations shall advise an not order upon the means by which th
 obligation of the league shall be fuldl
