HARDING EXPECTED
STRESS LEAGUE
G.. o. P. Nominee to Fire
Opening Gun in Accept
ance Address.

MARION. o., July Ex-senator Hard
lngs speech of acceptance to he de-
livered tomorrow, is expected by his
close associates to give prominence TO
the foreign policy of President Wilson
and the league of nations in such way
ms to advance the campaign toward a
squarely Joined issue between the two
political parties.
Those who know the mind OF the
presidential nominee declared their con-
fidence today that he would make a
declaration squaring with the party
platform and the party record and
bridging successfully the Republican diff
ference of opinion which threatened to
split them at Chicago.
The exact form of the declaration was
not revealed, but it was said authori-
tatively it would follow the trend OF
the senator's recent statements on the
subject and would be particularly mill
tant in it's opposition to Wilson policies,
TO which the Republican nominee re-
CARDS the Democratic party and candi-
dates as pledged unreservedly.
In addition to declaring unthinkable
the acceptance of the league as the
president fashioned it, however, the
senator is expected to express in direst
terms his belief that America should not
remain isolated and to take the posi-
ton that the wars sacrifices will prove
in vain unless there is established a
new order with added security to peace
and civilization.
1t is subject for speculation how
far he will detail this position or to
what extent he win clothe with prac-
tical suggestions the declaration of the
Chicago platform for an international
peace tribunal
1t Is regarded as unlikely that the
nominee will enter into a detailed dis
Cussion-of the league covenant or will
speak effectively of reservations or in
terpretations. He is expected rather to
hold his utterances to the broad prln-
cipes involved, Ringing his argument
to plea for American rather than
world ideals.
He is believed certain to couple with
this declaration that the failure of the
United States to accept Mr.. Wilson s
league will not be construed abroad as
an evasion of duty, but will be inter
preted as arising from devotion to the
