Governor Cox emphasized that he

Cox said, has become reactionary

Of the men who wrote the constitution
that dominating group In the
senate should obstruct the treaty

conscientious pretext while moved
by the hidden purpose OF promoting

was never intended that the senate

its power Of confirmation. responsi-
bility for efficient public services.
This, OF course. is in addition TO the
authority in the ratification OF treat

The very argument which Senator
Harding advances in support OF the
senatorial individuality, certainly holds
with equal logic to the preserva-
Ton Of executive individuality. Nor

ciple so dangerous but they resent
the attempt now being made to turn
the senate and presidency into

STATUE OF LAFAY YETTE

Metz, France, Aug. 21.-William P.
I,artin of New York, supreme direct
or, of the Knights of Columbus, deliv-
cred the oration of the day at the
unveiling of the Knights Of Columbus
statue of Lafayette here, today. Mr..
Larkin reviewed the historical rela-
tions between France and the United
States, and narrated the incident of
the French Catholic clergy collecting
s6,000,000 to aid the struggling col

I'VE of America can never forget
the pastorals issued by the bishops
Of France, urging the people of France
to aid America in those trying days."

appropriate that the Knights of Col

as the object Of their pilgrimage, for

Lafayette's American career? and
was it not Metz that. 100 years after
ward. within the sacred precincts
laying deep the foundation of that
character and genius which in later
years has stood civilization in such
good stead and saved France?
we knights of Columbus welcome
this opportunity to symbolic the
age-old bonds that bind America to
France. The tie that binds America
to France stretches back many years
before the birth of American free
dom. May this gift stand forever, as
an enduring and ever.constant remind
er Of the bravery Of American and
French fighting men, smashing their
way to victory over common cause;
may il be constant reminder Of the
truth. that, however the Vaccinations
of enemies shall conspire to magnify
the irritations that are inescapabie
in the national life, however unworthy
consideration on the one side or the
other, shall momentarily obscure the
mystic cords OF affection that stretch
across the waters, from the heart
of America to the heart OF France,
this git of the Knights of Columbus
is the enduring pledge that America
Ia still mindful of the ancient friend
ship, and that America never for

archy was made here today by Gov

that delivered recently by Senator
Harding. his Republican opponent, in
which Mr.. Harding commended the
senate as a forum of popular govern

THE Republican candidate" said

"He owes his nomination to them. His
