governmental department should take
some strenuous action Ito see that the

speculation and that sugar prohteers
should be prosecuted.
Senator Swanson said he had received
large numbers of complaints from Vir-
gina relative to the sugar shortage, and

various dealers in that State that their
sugar output already had been taken and
they were unable to supply customers.

little action" Government officials who
attended refused TO divulge more than the
subject debated.

Reform Has Been Achieved.

BY Associated Press TO Every Evening
Marion. Ohio. Aug. 20.-Senator Hard

suffrage TO American women would he
especially welcome to the Republicans
because "a great moral and social reform
recently achieved is menaced by the
covert purpose of our opponents to at
tack it.
lie predicted that voting women would
stand with the Republican party through
a realization that il had led in achieving
social betterment while the Democratic
party had "notoriously refused" to en-
force reform policies.
Il look upon the enfranchisement of
women" he said, "aS an accomplishment
10 be rated along with our achievement of
independence, our preservation OF the
union, our emancipation of the slaves and
our contribution in the world war to the
rescue of civilization itself.
LAS to immediate political effects, we
Republicans may and do feel secure. In
this campaign we face issues on which we
NAV be confident that the voice of woman
hood will pronounce for us. Once more the
real independence of our nation is involved
A great moral and social reform recently
achieved is menaced by the covert puT-
pose of our opponents to attack it.
Enfranchised women will make no
mistake in choosing between the Republi
can party which has led in every movement
for social and industrial betterment and
the Democratic party which has motor
iouslv refused TO enforce these enlightened
policies In the South where il completely
dominates. Nor will women forget that

seeking TO raise n campaign fund which
Mt the very least would be $l5,000,00
and that the "sky is the limit" so far as
contributions above that amount are
concerned.
Repeating his charge previously made
that this money was not being given by the
laboring man or the farmer but was
being contributed by big interests "seek-
ing to purchase an underhold on the
government" he asserted that "many
bankers in writing their checks to the
Republican National Committee are
simply making an investment, and for
every dollar they give they expect more
in return
The speaker was careful To mention
that he did not include all of the bankers
of the United States in his charges.
lie pointed out that in the old DAYS the
bankers through their control of the
money market were able to force the sale
of food stuffs by the producer, asserting
that "they precipitated panic whenever
they wanted a panic.

ent members of the Ohio Legislature Yes

In the longest a. most vigorous
utterance he has de since his ac-
ceptancc speech, the Republican Presi-
dental candidate, unmoved by GoVerho,
CoN's accusations that he was backeu
by Senate rirg," launched INTO an
exhaustive defense of the Senate, ITS
powers, privileges an1 procedure. MT;
Harding was in a d ,fiant mood and
made his points with vigorous gestures.
His nearest answer to recent attack
was a reference TO cartoon, editorial ana
platform suggestions that In case OF a
Republican victory the incoming Presl-
dent proposes ~ ncrmit the Senate TO
have some say in determining the poilcy
of government.
The Senator rat,sad. drew himself to-
gether and then said with considerable
force:
II gladly proclaim all these sugges-
tions to be literally correct.
Il rejoice that the United States
Senate is functioning again. We need
il to save America, and he promised
that a Republican administration woui
allow 'ninety-six leading men OF the
Republic to have something to say about
foreign relations as the constitution con-
templates"
Again, with an appearance of defiant
emphasis he said:
II would rather have the counsel OF
the Senate than of all the political bosses
of any party in America.
'Nlomentary ciamor" about eliminat-
ing the Senate from responsibility, Sem
ator Harding was inclined to ascribe
either to imported ideas from the Paris
Peace Conference or TO a reflex of
mob mentality which has broken out IN
