CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. oct 1s-, To the voters of the Democratic south Senator Harding tonight addressed an appeal for earnest consideration of Re- publican principles and gave a prom tee that Republican success in the election would mean the same poll icy of helpful protection to all Amer ican production. north or south"
 In a speech at the Auditorium here he suggested diversified politics" as tho thing required to remove the last trace of sectional misunderstanding and said that his party had no policy for ono section and that it did not preach for all sections alike.
 The Democratic party he attacked for its conduct of affairs both at home and abroad. President Wilson. he said, repeatedly had dictated to congress. even at the expense of violating thc pledges of his own party platform. and finally had attempted to force accept ance of the league of nations covenant by depriving the senate of its consti- tutional powers.
 An ambiguity in the federal consti- tution. he said, had been responsible for the Civil war and he voiced hope that no similar catastrophe would be courted by accepting a league covenant containing a score of antiquities"
 
 of union." he said. "we note no differ enco in patriot love of country, north or south: rather a misunderstanding as to the meaning of it. It little mat ters now about grievances, about early difficulties, about the embittered dis appointments. The supreme fact is that we are reunited"

 Highways of steel. improved roads and avenues of exchanging commerce have iutersected the old Mason and Dixon line until 1t Is only a historical memory. Your commerce is American commerce. Your industry is American industry. Your production is Amer ican production. Your farm products and our farm products are essential tc American life.
 We are inter-dependent, and the Republican party proclaims the sam, doctrine of agricultural good forum, fin tho south that it does in the north It breaches the same policy of finance north and south. It breaches the sam, policy of a helpful protection to al American production north and south

We believe in th' southern factories and the northern factories selling to America first. ani we acclaim an industrial south as on of tho essentials Co the ideal republic
 sI want the self-reiiant America seif-reliant agriculturally. seif-redian politically. That is why I insist tha we shall never accept a league of na tions with the material heart of a mil itary alliance. to rule the world by force of arms. North and south tough because the states of the south though they had a right to withdraw from th union. The north thought the unio to bo indissoluble. Then came the con fllct over an ambiguity in the consti tuition. There are score of ambig dtles in the presidents covenant an he would not tolerate their clarificatio by reservations.

For either to ir wade the field of action delegated the other is to usurp the authority tho other. During tho life of the pre- cnt administration this conditio which the constitution inhibits, h. arisen again and again.
