Harding Says
League Stand
Is Unchanged
Unalterable Opposi-
ton to Covenant Still
Position Of Ohio
Senator

Rochester, N. Y, Oct 21-Making
his first speech of the campaign in
New York state, Senator Harding
again challenged his democratic
opponents here today to show by
his public utterances where he has
changed is position on te leass op
nations since he accepted the re-
publican nomination.
Definite Plan Lacking.
Relating his stand, he declared
the nation "cannot take seriously
the democratic insistence that the
covenant shall be considered for
acceptance as it stands and added
that for ''such rejection he had
stood unfailingly. He also asserted
that he had favored consistently
an international association in the
interest of peace, but could not un>
der present conditions frame defi-
mite and specific plan.
II am not that kind of candi-
date he continued. ut is easy
enough for a candidate who is go
ing to lose to say almost anything
about the league of nations or any
lulute DldilS Luz AHlei I'D
Other Issues Cited.
''The democratic forces have
paramounted the solemn referen-
dunn of our foreign relations, and
web ave gladly accepted, but that
does not blind us to the fact that it
is designed to divert attention from
the unhappy failure of domestic
administration. The great and SOL
emn referendum will not make the
American people forget the tragic
mismanagement of their own af-
fairs, because they have long since
passed Judgment on our foreign re-
lations.
Surely the American people can
not take seriously the democratic
insistence that the Paris covenant
shall still be considered, as plat
form and candidates insist, for ac-
ceptance as it stands. Such re-
lection has ben twice recorded. L
have repeatedly spoken such re-
lection from thed ay of accepting
my nomination with unfailing con-
sistency."
