THE HARDING ACCEPTANCE SPEECH

III splendid things The address as whole bears out his
reputation gifted orator Like President
like his competitor Governor Cox, the republican
makes good use of the English language No who
elected we are going to have the white house who
knows how to express himself well.
On numerous industrial and economic subjects
no questioning the sodness of the views We
more production and need deaton lay
ce stress steps the present administration taking
deflafon The debating is already and is trite
TO say that is business where the country
caution 1t would mean ruin This
the relief want. =
On the railroad issue Harding lays blame on
legged failure of governmental operation
that private operation broke down under the
looks the fact that private control with unprecedented
governmental aid not fully the nations
Regarding Mexico Mr. Harding the words friendship
and sympathy Those words smack
platform than the Chicago platform They
just the The senator erces the Wilson polly towards
Mexico yet comes advising that very policy
AS to the dry amendment he gives law enforcement pledge
which right proper says enforcement law may
be changed the people desire but he does
vcon of his this point He expected to do
his platform silent that topic and the candidate should
stand upon his platform
The weak spot in the Harding attitude is his opposition
the League Of Nations He ustans the Chicago platforms
udiaton of the league and advises world instead He
would nave peace by Justice not by force You can logically
uphold his stand believe police Judge successfully
to back him. You the Harding viewpoint you
eve supreme laws Oregon
acclaim the senator's attitude believe that the Hague
tribunal was successful its in 1914 and that did
The contention that world without force behind it
cam preserve peace is fundamentally wrong dees human
nature history and Wherever
peace disarmament have occurred they have always
higher alliance ready
force defending the smaller weaker unit of society
This has been from the the day and
one can change this rule Mr. ardngs logic enough to make
Theodore his grave The colonel did not
believe that could be maintained by such
The Harding the league would destroy
independence scrutiny The league would
infringe rights but instead would give
institutions protection greater than before
allied powers each jealous the
naona joined the league and their action
Harding theory with that cannot be matched
with words.
Harding president would try have the world
all that mankind hopes for under the
eraons He would back to the stat
by establishing something much like had at The
Hague poured out gold it for that
million soldiers fought would such goal suffice for
sorrowng mother who having lost consoed and in
spired thought that he died in to end war?
THE Chicago platform Mr.. Hardings Interpretation
thereon his election impossibility.
