bring about the League of Nations!
No. he would not The Republican
senators would defeat it,
Harding Would Get League
Mr.. Taft declared enough senators
had been pledged against the league to
defeat the Democratic program even If
Mr.. Cox were elected.
'And then the deadlock would con-
tinue for full two years" he added.
II want league of nations. I want
the war to result in something. There
fore l am for Harding who has pledged
himself to negotiate for n new league.
He promised to appeal to the league
council, suggesting amendments. He
stands for limitation of armament, for
international courts and required coun-
Gil of nations.
"Mr. Cox would never interjcct him
self into the league, and voting for Mr..
Harding is the only hope for the league.
though | still maintain that the league
is not the issue"
Predicts Harding Landslide
"A landslide for Harding" is Mr..
Taft's view, as expressed before he ad-
dressed the rally here. He made his
prophecy of clean sweep for Harding
when he visited the Ledger Office.
"What do / think Of the election?'
said Mr.. Taft. II think the people Of
the United States are just waiting to
register their votes. There is no ques-
! ton in my mind as to who will win.
Harding sentiment is predominant
| throughout the nation"
Mr.. Taft does not think the recent
! intensive activity Of the Democrats will
avail them anything on e.cction day.
THE activity of Mr.. Cox has been
rcdoubled. of course, during the last
two weeks said the former President
but there is not the slightest chance
of Democratic victory.
'In no presidential election Will
which l am familiar has there beer
such a uniformity of indication of {
coming Republican victory.
Question Now Is Senate
1.-THE great question now is the mat
ter of the Senate. 1t is Of the highes
Importance to give Mr.. Harding rca
working majority, instead of a nomina
one, in the Senate.
II look for such majority TO b,
returned in the Senate because of Mr.
Harding's presidential strength. l be
lieve his majority will be so great tha
he will carry with him the Republican
senatorial candidates in many doubtful
states.
"As a member of the Board Of Arbi.
tration ! have had occasion to visit al
parts of the West and South. | repent
that | have never known sentiment to b'
SO uniform everywhere. and it is uni
formly in favor of change in admins
tration. Everywhere the voters almOS
without exception have made it plair
that they favor return of the Repub
lican party to power.
. Even in the sO-cal,cd Solid South
I found general evidence Of dissatisfac
ton with the Democratic administra
tion."
