league with the republican reserva-
tions and he did so twice. In antici-
patton of executive responsibility
and of initiative he does not wish
to submit the Wilson league to the
Senate. He prefers to- negotiate with
the leading powers now in the league
to revise and amend the league by
an agreement with those powers be-
fore submitting the matter to the
Senate.
"In his speech of August % and in
his speeches at Indianapolis and
Greencastle. Ind. this last week ne
has made it clear that this country
should help in an association OF ma
tions to avoid war and that he is
willing and anxious to bring about a
modified or revised league by avoid
ing those features of the Wilson
league to which he has made objec-
ton. His insistence is that the
league should center around a court
of Justice and Mr.. Roots international
court of justice furnishes a basis for
his proposal. Expressions that Mr.
Harding 'scrapped' the league, has
'repudiated' it, are grossly unfair ex-
pressions He has vigorously OPP
posed article x and the Monroe doc
trine provisions, but he has not re-
pudiated it's other provisions and pur-
poses
"All inference that he is opposed to
any league or opposed to the present
league when these features which he
deems to be Objectionable are removed
and when other features are added
that he deems to be necessary, does
him Injustice"

To PARTICIPATE:
IN OREGON RACE


Portland, Ore. May 1.-Senator
Miles Poindexter of Washington to-
day withdrew from THE contest for
Endorsement a. the forthcoming
primary by Oregon republicans of
his candidacy for the presidency,
according to a statement tonight
by j. G. Herhsman. manager of the
PoindcNter campaign in this state.
"There are two ways of making
q campaign" said Herbsman. "One
is by the use of money and the
other is personal campaigning,
Senator PoindeXter not having
money to spare. was planning to
make Il personal speaking tour of
Oregon. His plans have been dis
arranged and he cannot tour this
state, Under the circumstances we
feel that his claims cannot be laid
before the voters of Oregon ade-
duately, It was therefore decided
to withdraw his candidacy in this
state"
At Salem late today Acting Sec
retarv of State Sam Kozer said II
would be necessary for Senator
PoindeXter to file an affidavit of
withdrawal before coEnizance could
be taken of his request for with
drawal. Kozer was notified by tel
cphonc from Portland today of the
senator's intention, Herbsman to-
night confirmed the report that he
had telephoned the notice to the

Radical Plans to

Washington, May PLANS of
radical leaders for nationwide
May day demonstrations, involving

of more than score of federal ana

indicated.
Extra precautions taken by fed
eral and state authorities to block
the radicals widely disseminated
appeal for a MAY day show of
power" were described at the de-
partment as decidedly successful.
Reports to the department men
toned a number of strikes insti-
tuted during the day, but In nearly
every case the reporting agent en-
phasized that the walkouts wero
local in nature and due to the reg
ular May day expiration of wage
contracts.
The appeal of radicals for de-
morSSsation to the government in
behalf of soviet Russia also was
without avail, the reports indicated.
Incendiary speeches and demands
that the United States resume re-
lations with Russia were made at
meetings in the several cities. AS
sistant Attorney General Garvin
declared, but the net result was
negligible.
Despite the fact that there were
no reports of attempted assassina-
ton of public officials. it was said
tonight that the government in
tended to maintain its guard over
the persons threatened for some
time.

2 MEN ACCIDENTALLY
SHOT AT FLAGSTAFF

Especial Correspondence to The Jourraf.l
Flagstaff, Arz., May 1.-Two
Greenlaw lumber mill laborers are
at the county hospital suffering
from serious, perhaps fatal wounds
received from an accidental shoot
ing.
Pedro Jaurique. who lives near
the mill, began cleaning his auto
matte revolver, when two friends
of his came in. Janrique pulled the
trigger and the bullet sped from the
revolver, entering the first mans
body just above the heart, passed
out beneath his right arm and en-
tered the other mans body below
the heart, passing on to the left
kidney.
DR.. Felix Manning and several
deputy sheriffs motored to the
scene Of the accident and both OF
the wounded men claim the affair
to have been purely accidental, as
all three were the best of friends.
The man who did the SHOOTING
left the scene in hurry and as yet
has not been rounded up. The in
jured men eXonerate him from all
blame, but both victims remain in
very serious condition.
