GERMANY INSISTS ON
 REFUSAL TO GIVE IN
Marshal Foch, Gen. Wey. gand and Marshal Wilson
 Summoned to Spa.

Spa, July 14 (By Associated Press). Marshal F'och and General Wey- sand, his assistant, summoned from Paris to the Allied German confer- ence when the Germans rejected the Allied solution of the problem of de- livery of coal by Germany, arrived here today. Field Marshal Wilson Of Great Britain is expected to arrive tonight.
 No disposition was shown by Chancellor F'shIenbach and Foreign Minister Simons today to yield to the Allies on the coal question.
 The German delegation regrets that the conference may be dissolved without further agreement" said Dr. Simons but we have done as much as We could and await the action of the Allies
 The Allies ministers appeared equally firm in their decision that Germany deliver 100000 tons of coal monthly.
 Fehrenbach and Sifnons suggested that the Allied governments send commission of experts 10 Essen to confer with workmen and discuss the urgency of increasing coal prcduc- Iion. 5s ta-.->----
 Field Marshal Wilson of Great Brit ain. who was summoned here yester-. day by the. ,supreKs allied council, after the German delegates engaged in the conference in this city bad rc- jected the allied solution of n. coal delivery problem is expected to a:- rive here tonight.

 In some quarters there is eHpecta- tion that the Germans will make a. fresh offer during the day.
 In an effort to prevent a breakup of the conference a meeting between the German foreign minister and Lloyd George at the latter's hotel was arranged.

Democratic Nominee Replies to Latter's Statement That Wilson Saddled League of Nations Upon Him.
CRTTYCISES METHOD
 OF. REPUBLICAN, MAN

Columbus. O., July 14-Chargn ng that Senator Harding had made his
 front porch listening post" Co., ernoF Cox today issued a statement replying to Senator Harding's state ment of yesterday that the Wilson au- ministration had saddled the League of Nations upon Governor Cox as the chief campaign issue.
 Governor Cox said his campaign would be dedicated to the task ot "bringing peace with honor, of read justng the affairs of civilization and of creating a new day out of which we will make the best of the lessons of the past"
 Governor Cox's Statement.
 The statement follows: II recognize the eagerness of the, gentlemen of the press who are assigned here to de- velop news copy daily. I have no dis position to discourage that enterprise, but at the very outset it is we'll that we have this understanding of 8 very fundamental phase of the present sit uation.
 Senator Harding has made lwo definite announcements that he pur- poses to hark back to the days of 90 years. ago, and that he will make hia front porch q listening post. This means that he will be as far removed from the running current of progress sive thought as the senatorial oligar- chy of Lodge and Penrose and Shoot has been removed from the heart beats of the American people for a year or more.
 My campaign will be dedicated to the task of bringing g peace with honor, of readjusting the affairs of civiliza- ton and of creating a new day out of which we will make the best of the lessons of the past. Therefore things that the senator believes vital and pertinent from his isolated per- spective will not. in all proba bility, be so regarded by me. His last state ment is but a reiteration of what has been said in the serate time after time, so that if tIris cam paign on the one hand develops into mere morning g sessions of the senate you will very readily perceive the uselessne ess of daily response

New Party Faces Crisis

Chicago. July 14.-Hopes for the survival of the new party were at ebb tide as the all-night conference of the new body's resolutions com mittee dragged along today in an eff fort to get together on a platform ac- ceptable to Senator La Toilette.
 The extreme left which yesterday controlled the amalgamation and forced its platform desires on the more conservative element in the convention, struck a snag when it met the veto power of the probable presidential nominee of the new party. Forty-eighters, who consti- tute the right wing group of the fusion movement are bitterly opposed to the more socialistic ideas of the radical labor factioS. In this stand they have the support not only of La Toilette but of several minority organizations subscribing to the poh- tical combination.
 Single Taxcrs Withdraw.
 The first evidence of possible breakup of the new party came when the Single. Taxers withdrew, adopted their one plank platform and nom- mated candidates. For president they named Robert c. Macauley of Philadelphia, and for vice. president R. c. Barnum of Cleveland They quit the new party, Jerome c. Refs said. because they would not obtain their platform desires and could not stand the socialistic ideas' of the dominant labor group. -.'

OH YOU MARRIED MEN!
Ne,yington "ConstabuIe" Says New Britain Is Affinity City With Mar
 ried Men Having Very Young Ideas.


 Constable J. E. Waterman of New ington called at the Herald office last evening to register a protest against the observations of "The Observer" as printed in Saturdays Herald, par ticularly with reference to the activi- ties of the Newington officers in rounding up young couples who lin- ger in autos to hold hands while the night is young.
 The constable, while admitting that he has taken into custody number of autoists for various offenses denied that he had ever preferred charges against young people carrying on an innocent filtration or love-making match. In nine out of every ten cases, he claimed. the male in the case was an experienced romarcer, admitting when nabbed that he was married but that the girl of his affections was not his wife. New Britain, in the con- stables opinion, is city of affinities. He would have them understand, however, that they will have to select some spot other than Newington for their lovers lane
 Incidentally, Constable Waterman. who also serves as dog warden in Newington. asked the Herald to warn dog owners in Newington that tho annual license fee for their pets was due in May and. by heck. il they don't settle up within a week he pro- poses to run 'em in, asking the court to inf1ict the penalty which the law provides for their delinquency.

Into contest.
 Hyde Park, N. Y. July 14.-Frank- lin D. Roosevelt replied at his home today to the charge of Senator Hard ing that President Wilson had fore ed the democratic nominees to accept his view that the league of nations should become the dominant campaign is sue.
 The attempt by Senator Harding yesterday" he said, ito befog the true league of nations issue by dragging in the name of President Wilson is merely further evidence of the his torical fact that a certain type of senatorial mind cares more about squaring an ancient grudge against an individual than it does to consider the true welfare of the nation It is of course we'll known that seven eight tas of the opposition of these senators is not to the league of nations, but to the person of he president of the United States himself.
 'NThe democratic party enters the campaign with the clear-cut purpose of proving that the world war has not been fought in vain. No one, probably not even Senate Harding himself, knows what would happen should the republicans win. One branch of his supporters such as Sen ator Hiram Johnson assures the na- tion that a republican victory means no league of nations. Another branch led by such men as former President Taft assures the nation that a repub- lican victory means the acceptance of the league with certain undefined res- ervations.'
