WH|RLW|ND TRIP
 THROUGH NEW YORK
Roosevelt Accuses Harding of Deliberately Placing Parti-
 sanShip Above Patriotism
By Associated Press

New York, October 3-Frankln b. Roosevelt, in whirlwind campaign through New York city today, accused Senator Harding of deliberately having placed partisanship above patriotism in the most vital issue of this campaign the League of Nations" The vice pres idential candidate addressed a large au- dienee in Manhattan tonight after he hau addressed six meetings of college students, arranged by the Cox-Rooseveit College Mems League during the day, and attended a dinner given by the same organization.
 Tt is curious commentary on this can.paign, he said in his address to students from the downtown branches Of Fordham and New York universities
 in the Judson church, that I have
 been allowed to speak in church but not even within the grounds Of two New York city colleges. In other words, the churches recognize the
 League of Nations as vital, moral is-
 sue above party and candidates. The en- | thusiasm, the attention and the attend.
 ance at the college meetings clearly in- dlcate the students and faculty also un- derstand the greatness of the issue, de- 1 srite the fact that the grounds and | Buildings were not open to us"
 | In recent speeches, Mr. Roosevelt said,
 Senator Harding has tried to impress nis auoiehces "ltn the suggestion that 1 Governor Cox, even if elected could not
 succeed in obtaining ratification of the | league because republican senators would constitute more than one-thrd of the Senate and would block any attempt | at ratification by the necessary two. ] u rds vote.
 | There is of course no question:" he | added, that the coming Senate will be l closely divided between the two parties and that neither of them will nave a | two-thirds membership. If Governor Cox or I had threatened a blocking oi any republican, drawn treaty by senators levery republican in the United States lwould rise In protest against such an un- 1 patriotic suggestion. l believe that il Governor Cox is elected, republicans II the Senate will join with democrats 1T
 carrying out the desire of the majority | of the voters.''

 .'The policy of the Saturday Evening Post is now and always has been for mulated by it's editor. Neither any pol- tician nor group of politicians nor any interest of any kind or description has suggested what stand it should take In this election or had anything whatso- ever to do with influencing it's policy. Given the same record andN the repub- lican party in power, he would not hesi- tate as strong a position against con- tinuance of republican rule.
 Propaganda has come, in the minds of shallow thinkers like Governor Cox. to mean any view that does not square with theirs.

.LAT|MORE DEFENDS
 CARTOON IN POST
Answers Cox's Statement ls-
 sued After Getting Hold of . Advanced Copy of Paper
By Associated Press

Philadelphia, October 25-Horace Latt- more, editor of the Saturday Evening Post, tonight gave out the following re- ply to the statement made public Sum day night by Governor Cox relative to cartoon to appear in this weeks issue of the Post:
 There could be no better yndication of the cartoon and comment that will ap. pear in this weeks number of the Sat, urday Evening Post no clearer demon stration of Governor Cox's unfitness for high office, than his misleading remarks on the advance copy of the weekly that has come into his possession.
 Governor Cox is a millionaire news paper editor and publisher of long ex- perience. He must therefore understand that it is a first point of honor among newspaper men not to make use of ad- vance copies of publications that are sent out with the understanding that they will not be released until a fixed date in the future. He must know, as publisher, that at the postal rate now being charged periodicals and newspa- pers, no question of subsidy by the government is involved; that the periodl- calls are not only paying their way, but |that under any kind of an efficient ad- zrninistration in the postoffice there Is Ia handsome profit in carrying them. Though the editor of the Saturday Eve- ming Post has had something to say editorially on other sections of the reve- nue bill, he has accepted and consist ently refrained from attacking the raise in postal rates, even though he believes it unjust Governor Cox has studied the advertising columns of the Saturday Evening Post with the intelligence that a man in his position should have; he must know that it has been the policy of that magazine to refuse casual ad- yertising, growing out of the excess profits tax and has inssited on well-con- sidered, well-formulated campaigns De-
