On board special train ,en route
with Governor Cox, Sept. 29.-After
having made the positive statement
that he will. II elected, exert every
effort toward the enforcement OF the
Volstead act, amendment Is to the
federal constitution which declares
the manufacture and traffic in intox-
icants illegal, Governor Cox today
swetps in broad semi-circle into
the states of Missouri and Kansas,
in both Of which the liquor matter is
still considered a live issue.
Only three addresses We're on today's
program. The first at st. Joseph, Mo-,
| in the early afternoon was to be fol-
lowed by one at Atchison. Kan, late
| in the afternoon and ut Topeka, the
state capital, in the evening. In n
! statement issued this morning and
which was expected to form the basis
OF his Missouri and Kansas speeches
today, Governor Cox again severely
criticised his republican opponent for
| having no definite plan TO offer In
substitution for the league OF nations
He said in part:
ltardings Reasons
"The reasons Senator Harding has
no definite plan to offer in substltu-
ton for the league of nations is be-
cause he does not dare suggest to
the mothers of America the only
alternative there Is: namely. a return
90 international normalcy of 1914
with autocratic monarchs and sud
den ultimatums and secret diplo.
macy and burdensome armaments,
"Of course the reason Senator Hard.
| Ing has no substitute to suggest fol
i the league of nations because every
thing else has been tried and has
failed. The inter-par'iamentary union
held international conferences for O
decade before the great war. Tn,
Hague court has been functionng fol
more than II years-but both wer,
impotcnt to prevent or even postpon,
the catastrophe. And as for the grea
alliance. instead of preventing wal
by a balance of power they provoke,
war by the multiplication OF arm,
and ammunition, OF battle fleets ant
standing armies.
