Senator Capper of Kansas. repub-

Nominee Calls on Members of Other Parties for

|Assoeioted press Leased Wire)

CHICAGO, Aug. II. Franklin D. Roosevelt, Democratic candidate for vice president, opened his campaign here tonight before 5000 people. He urged Republicans and independents to join the Democrats in support of their platform and ticket He told Republicans their party had been that the faction represented by Sen ator Harding was the ''old guard" Theodore Roosevelt had opposed. Seven hundred women were given the places of honor on the stage He said in part:
 Tonight we are firing the
 opening gun of a battle of far
 reaching importance, and once
 again the shots are going to be
 heard around the World--for the
 action of the American nation
 will be watched with anxious eyes
 by all civilization.
 Governor Cox and I believe it is the simple duty of the candidates to give as many citizens as possible an opportunity to see ant hear and form their own impressions of the men they are to vote for. It is only frankness to say that the great majority of the newspapers are owned or controlled by men affiliated with the Republican party. It is, therefore, doubly neces- sary for us to present our views and our aims in person.

BOLSHEV|k ADVANCE CREEPS STEADILY TOWARD WARSAW IN
 NORTH; POLES PLAN RE TREAT
Soviet Shows No Intention of Making Truce Before
 Taking City

PARIS, Aug. ii. - The situa- tion of Warsaw is little changed, judged from the scant news reach ing Paris tonight. 1t seemed that the converging movement on the capital has made only slight prog ress and the greatest danger lies from the north. Then Dan- zig-Warsaw railroad is cut for SO miles, and the Bolshevik cavalry continues to creep along the Prus- sian frontier. Te Reds also are advancing west of the middle Bug.
 Action of the Soviet in not re- plying to the Polish note of Aug ust regarding an armistice, but sending delegates to the Polish line, has strengthened the convic- tion in the military circles that the Soviet either has no intention of making peace or Is determined to put off negotiations as long as possible and throw blame for the delay on Poland.

 Shoot at Target
(hsso.io.ed Press Leased Wire)

COLUMBUS, O., Aug. H. Cover nor Cox came today from Dayton and mapped out the address he will make tomorrow at Camp Perry, Ohio, the first speech in his campaign tour. The part the national guard and oth- CT citizen soldiers played in the war is to be his main theme when he pre- sents the Ohio governors cup to the winner of the national rifle shooting competition there. He also plans to shoot a few target rounds.
 Because of road conditions, the governor today abandoned his plan for motoring all the way to Camp Perry and prevented meeting of the Democratic and Republican candi- dates. He said he had planned to call on Senator Harding at Marion which is on the route of Camp Perry.
 Governor Cox today received word from Governor Roberts of Tennessee that it appeared probable that the Tennessee would ratify suffrage. Gov ernor Roberts said a favorable vote Friday was in prospect in view of the test of strength today.
