HOW GOVERNOR cox AIDED
OHIO FARMERS IN 1919

Early in 1918, when the necessity
Of stimulating agricultural produc-
ti3n as a part of the national war
effort became a matter Of highest
importance, Governor Cox went to
the aid of Ohio farmers in a speci-
fic and effective way. He called a
meeting Of tractor manufacturers in
Columbus and told them that the
State Of Ohio wanted an allotment
Of tractors for that year far in ad-
vance Of anything they had Oontem-
plated. He wanted at least 1900,
which was a big figure in the tractor
industry in those days. The manu-.
facturers told him they might be
willing but the banks wouldn't help
the farmers finance tractor pur-
chases.
The Governor said they would and
that he would see that they did he
then took the matter up with Phillip
C. Berg, superintendent of the state
banking department. At Cows d.
recticn Berg wrote letter to every
banker in the state urging favorable
action on requests for financial as
sistance in the matter of tractor sales
to farmers. To supplement this ac-
ticn Cox diverted from its usual rest
irg place f2,0OO,000 Of the state L.
dustrial Commission funds, which was
placed on deposit in country banks,
with a gentle hint tl.at part of t e.
east be uscd in helping far.n'rs 80
buy tractors. 1t was so used.
The next problem was that Of dis
counting tractor paper at the Federal
Resrve Bank. The Federal Reserve
Bank had been discounting implement
paper, but the bank doubted that
tractor paper was the same. as i'm
plement paper. Cox didn't wait for
more than one complaint Of this kind.
but took Berg and. went to Cleveland,
where he had a conference with the
governor Of the Federal Reserve Bank
Of that district, D. C. Wills, with the
result that Willis issued an order au-
thorizing tractor paper to be dis
counted on the same basis as agri.
cultural implement paper.
The Ohio campaign produced re-
suits. Until that time the state had
2,416 tractors. During that year
1882 were sold, which was consider.
able nore than Ccx had asked the
manufacturers to alIot. 1t was the
/. most aggressive campaign ever in
stigated by state official.

hands to either return the covenant
to the Senate for ratification or to
where it now rests.
So it appears from the latest utter
ances of Senators johnson and Hard
ing that there is no hopes Of any
kind for a League ofNations and Re-
publicans who have believed that
there was hope despite Senator
Harding's utterances can now. plain-
~ see that with his election there
would be no chance whatever Of the
covenant being returned to the SEN
ate for action. He doesn't want a
League of Nations and he saya 50
and Hiram johnson makes 1t doubly
certain.
With Governor Cox it is quito diff
ferent. He is for the League of Ma
tions, believes in it, advocates it and
promises in no uncertain terms tkst
when elected his first act will be
to confer with the leaders Of the
Senate and with Republicans and
Democrats alike and secure the rati-
fication of the League with reser-
vations that will clarity, reassure the
American people and prove helpful.

says Governor Cox, Senator Hard
ing is against it. The issue rests with
the American people.

THE PRESIDENT ON
THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS

In speaking of the League, the
President, the man of all Americans
who had most to do with the making
Of the League said;
"Those who do not care to tell
you the truth about the League of
Nations will tell you that Article x
Of the Covenant of the League would
make it possible for other nasions to
lead us into war, whether we willed
It by our own intelligent judgment
or not. This is absolutely false. There
is nothing in the Covenant which in
the least interferes with or impairs
the right Of congress the right to des-
clare war, according to It's own inde-
pendent Judgment, az four COnsti-
tuition provides"
