Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., who has
been on a speaking tour throughout

are only two prominent Democrats

plause from the mixed audiences which
he Is addressing over the country.
These are Senator Reed, of Missouri,
and Senator Gore, of Oklahoma, two
of the outstanding opponents of the
Wilson League of Nations.
Mention of President Wilson has al
most invariably been met with silence
and indifference by Colonel Roosevelt's
audiences. The names Of Baker, Dan
lels and Burleson have brought forth
shouts of dersiOn, or else-partlcular-

But it has been different with regard
to Reed and Gore. Colonel Roosevelt
told Missouri audience that Senator
Reed was IA reel fellow, and h:
! judgment was upheld by hearty ap

The recent excursion of Franklin ID.
Roosevelt, Democratic vice presiden-
tial nominee, into the realm of diplo-
macy, when he declared that the Uni
ted States would control "about
twelve votes in the League OF Ma
tions, appears to have ended up dis
astrously.
According to dispatches from wash
ington, the indignation of number
Of foreign diplomats over the Roose-
welt statement concerning the League
has at last emerged from diplomatic
silence to open protest. In his speech
at Butte, Mont, Mr.. Roosevelt made
the blunt statement that although
England would have six votes in the
League of Nations, the United States
would actually control dozen votes
in the League, including those of Cuba
and Panama and group of the lesser
West Indian and Central American
republics. He even stated that two
of these votes had lately reposed In
"his own vest pocket" and that they
were now to be found about the per
son of Secretary Daniels.
