HAYS SAYS COX
 LOSING GROUND.
[RepubIlcan A. p. Leased wIre1

NEW YORK. Oct. 20.-WiI H. Hays today stated that in many normally Democratic states Democrats had given up hope of electing Cox and Roosevelt and are now busy trading Candidate Cox to save their senators"
 Mir Hays arrived here today from Chicago, bringing with him the pre- diction that every state west of the Mississippi would poll a Harding ma jority with the possible exception of Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana.
 Of states south of the Mason-Dixon line, MT. Hays said in formal state ment, the Republican ticket would carry Maryland, Tennessee, Kentucky. West Virginia and possibly North Carolina. The "solid South" with these exceptions, and three western states, were all in which MT. Hays would con- cede that Democratic chances seemed better than Republican. He said there was no doubt of sweeping Republican victories in Illinois and Indiana, de- claring that his prediction was made on a conservative basis.
 MT. Hays announced he would also make public his numerical estimates of Republican majorities, state by state, a few days before election.

TRepubIican A. p. leased wirel

AUSTIN. Texas, oct. 20-There is no longer any reason for withholding rec ognition of the government of Mexico, Governor w. P. Hobby declared, ac- cording to his Judgment, in tele- gram sent to President Wilson late today. The governor continued that recognition should be granted at once because it means much to the United States as well as Mexico, and will mean even more now than 1T post poned until a later date"
 The governors telegram said:
 "A year ago the situation in Mexico seemed to me hopeless. Today 1t IS rich in promise and the viewpoint en- tirely different. I have been in com pany with General Obregon at Fl Paso and later as my guest at the Dallas fair. I have discussed the situation with General Gales, General Trevino, Governors Enriquez of Chihuahua, Bo ouez of sonora, Pesaueira and others who are taking the lead in affairs in Mexico.
 "As governor of the largest border state. I have no doubt of the good in tentions of the administration under Provisional President de. la Huerta and President elect Obregon. There is CO., operation in maintaining Deaces on the border. President de la Huerta's state ment is explicit in agreement for CO., operation to guarantee tranquility be- tween the two nations. The policy of non- -confiscation has been frankly de- clared and I have heard General Obre- gon personally declare for the pay ment of all debts and for the adjust ment of every claim Tn accordance with the practice of international law

 CONDEMNS ROOT
Republican A. p. Leased wIrel

CLEVELAND. Ohio, Oct. 20. - Speaking before a large audience in Gray's armory tonight, Franklin ID. Roosevelt, Democratic vice presiden- tial nominee, accused Elihu Root of being guilty of deliberate and clear misrepresentation of what are well known facts" in his address on the league of nations in New York last night.
 "Mr. Roots statement" he said, ''is based on two major objections: first to Article 10; ana secondly, the ale gation that President Wilson was by his attitude responsible for our fail ure to ratify during the last session of the senate. He says that Article 10 undertakes to guarantee and main tain by force of arms the territorial boundaries adopted by the chief repre- sentatives of four nations in Paris in 1919. Article 10 does not guarantee to maintain by force of arms. It guaran- tees to maintain the territorial integ rity of nations against outside aggres- sion. and in case of a threat against this territorial integrity the council Of the league shall recommend what steps shall. te taken to prevent the eXecu- ton of the threat.
 "Mr. Root knows that force of arms would not be recommended unless va rious other measures. such as inter national oetraCism of the country maS- ing the threat. had wholly failed ana in ease of a threatened world cOnfla grafton Every sane man knows tha ! in case or another world war Americ; would be drawn in. anyway. whethe , we were members of the league or not.

IRepubIIean A. 9. Leased WIrel


 JACKSON, Ohio, Oct. 20.-Replying to Governor Cox's charge of inconsis- tency on the league of nations issue, Senator. Harding offered in a speech here today "to give a reward" to any one who would produce specific evil dence of change of position since he accepted the Republican nomination for the presidency. Mir. Harding also asserted that if he had no specific plan for world association the same was true of Governor Cox, who had not told the people what reservations to the Versailles covenant he was will ing to take.
 T do not believe very much in the presidents league said the Repub- lican nominee, ''and if the Democratic candidate wants to regard this as my thirteenth change I give him notice that have one more yet to give him. because. you know. am entitled to fourteen.
 But as a matter of fact, I will give a reward to any man in America who can take my utterances on world poli- tics, from my speech of acceptance down to the speech I am making at this hour, and point out any inconsis- tence or change of position. T have said from the beginning that we WOulun nave tne W HSon CoNSudi@ and I say that to you again now. But have said repeatedly that America will gladly play her part in a suitable association of nations which does not involve the surrender of American sovereignty. which is built upon ideals of justice rather than force; and I say ! that again.
 q have not, of course. specified just 1 how would do it. because l am go- ! ing to be called upon to make good But, my countrymen, never with Ar ticle 10, the heart of the league. That is a heart of steel under a coat of mall while we want a heart and soul of jus | tice, for a better order in the world. q hope that does not leave you in any very great doubt. Let me ask you a question: Have you heard anyone who is insisting upon specific plans' | Have you heard of anyone who tells u' they will take the Wilson league witt | interpretations or reservations, anc have you heard any of them with theii | greatness of tongue tell you what res | ervations they are going to take?

TRepubIIcan A. P. Leased WIre1


 HOBOKEN, N. J., Oct. 2O.-Senator Harding. Republican candidate, stands for outright rejection of the league of nations and there is nothing ambigu- ous or uncertain in his declaration of attitude. Senator Hiram Johnson of California, league irreconcilable," de- clared in an address here tonight.
 For reasons of their own," Senator Johnson said, certain interested in dividuals and newspapers may mis- represent and misinterpret his words. I resent these imputations upon the sincerity of the utterances of the can didate, and the manifest endeavor in some quarters to distort his plain language.
 From those who believe as I do. he is entitled to not only the warmest commendation. but the strongest ad- vocacy and most encouraging support. The issue today is the league of na- tions, as presented by President Will son. which Cox says he will take this country into, and which Harding says he will not.
 "The men and newspapers who pro- fess to be friends of Senator Harding and who assert that he is to take this country into the league of nations do him a distinct disservice and pay him sorry compliment. speak, of course solely from the public utterances of ouI candidate and these utterances make plain beyond cavil that when Senator Harding is president he will not take | the United States into the league. He characterized the league as . misalliance which menaces peace and threatens all freedom; he called it the supreme blunder' and asserted that ht would keep America free, and self re liant, but offering friendship to all tho | world.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 2O.-While a survey Of the financial policies of the government by Secretary Houston drew the attention of delegates today at the general session of the American Bankers association convention, state bankers in the section meeting which followed brought the administration of the federal reserve system under fire. They adopted resolutions "eondemning methods employed by the board" in its relations with state banks which are not members of the reserve system, al- though the board did not lack de- lenders during the discussion.
 Indignation against the boards regu- lation compelling the collection of cheeks and remittances of the face amount at par was freely expressed. Governor Harding was styled ''usurper'' of authority and a commit tee was named to seek amandment of the reserve act so as to guarantee to all bankers the rights and priviIeegs' of fixing a charge on the handling of checks drawn on all excepting local banks.
 Speakers declared Governor Harding had employed force and coercion'' by forcing the use of the par clearance system, under which many state banks were said to have been compelled to enter the reserve system or lose cer- tain classes of business This was mot only unfair, but without basis in law, it was asserted.
 Charles DeB. Claiborne of New Or leans declared the service rendered by the banks in the transfer of checks was legitimate and that the banks were entitled to compensation. He as- serted that the arrangement ordered by the reserve board for par-clearance "does not make evey check worth 10( cents on the dollar because there is nearly always an exchange charge, sC the merchant who supports par clear ance does not gain anything" If the merchants have benefited by the sys. tenn, MT. Claiborne contended. the pub. lie "has not been able to see it re-
 flected in reduced prices"
 The reserve boards staunchest de
 fender was O. H. Wolfe of Philadel phia, who asserted that abolition of tn, clearance and remittance charges an' establishment of the country wide gol' settlement saved bankers and com
 mercial interests S135, ,000.00 last year This amount. he said, would have beel
 exacted as "tax" on business had no
 the board organized a system to clea an exchange of bank drafts.
 Although he joined in the protes gainst the par-clearance regulations E. c. McDougall of Buffalo. who wa elected president of the state ban section of the association. expresse ! unqualified approval of the reserv
 system. He declared 1t had "come {
 stay" and urged state bankers to wor together for it's growth instead c
 complaining about it all of the time. . (Continued on page 9
