TAFT PREDICTED
CORRECnY-COX
Ex-President On
League OF Nations
Year Ago

KENOVA, W. Va, Oct. 26.-Gov-
ernor Cox closed his West Virginia
campaign here today with another
appeal for the League of Nations and
the statement that the churches, la
Dor and the women were now to-
gether in the movement which he said
is sweeping the country"
He called attention to statements
made year ago by former Presi-
dent Taft, which Governor Cox said
prophesied his present view of the
situation. Continuing, he declared
that about year ago, in speaking in
Virginia, Taft said that "labor would
endorse the League because of its la
Dor provisions; the churches would
endorse it because it is right, and
then, if the women are given the
vote, they will all be for it because
of their adherence of war" In the
last week it has become perfectly
plain, Governor Cox concluded, that
Taft correctly visualized the future.

applause was deafening and was pro-

Hardwick's courage in accepting de-
feat in 1918, rather than to yield
to President Wilson, Judge Pottle
said:
"He has been tried as few men in
Georgia, and he has never weakened
and never failed. He was tried in
the fiery furnace and has come out
without the smell of fire on his gar

den of political lions and there IS
not a mark of their teeth upon him /;

charge of treason, but has come
down from that cross unscathed and

have led us to believe, but resent the
inhuman practices of the German
Kaiser" There was a tumult of
shouting. "That's the old time re-
ligion, boys" yelled an enthusiast
from the floor. The Macon Tele-
graph was loudly Kissed when Chair
man Flynt, referring to something it
had published yesterday morning
about what would happen should the

said:

clated Press. 1-The throne of
Greece has been offered to Prince
Paul, third son of Former King Con-
stanine, it is officially announced.
ATHENS, Oct. 26.-Many Difficult
ties regarding the succession to the
Greek throne may result from the
death of King Alexander, which oc-
Cured last night. There is every in
dication today that the throne will be
offered to Prince Paul, third son of
former King Constantine, but only
on condition that former King Con-
santine must formally abdicate and
Prince George, older brother of
Prince Paul, must also renounce his
rights to the succession.
1t is probable that King Constan-
tine will at first refuse to meet these
conditions. but it is understood that
Premier Venizelos will produce ar
guments of some Importance, which
may influence his final decision. Con-
stantine's financial status is well
known, and it is understood that the
premier will agree to restore the
former kings suppressed pension if
the above terms are accepted.
Admiral P. Coundourfotis. former
minister of marine, is believed here
to be the government official most IA
yored for appointment as regent of
Greece, to hold office until the sue

the throne. He is known to be friend
