HIRAM JOHNSON Still IN PARTY
Republican National Committee Accepts Chal-
lenge of Democrats to Make League of
Nations Issue.

In his statement which does not
mention Senator w. G. Harding by
name he compares the republican and
democratic platforms, pointing out,
that the republican party Stands
firmly against the presidents coverl-
ant as presented. denounces it asl
breeding war rather than peace"
while the democratic platform "en-.
dorsed the presidents attitude and
took its position in favor Of the
league as presented"
His conclusion is:
With candidate standing four
square upon the platform, the issue
leaves those who believe in safeguard
ing, protecting and preserving our
Americanism, but one choice and that
is TO support the republican party.
Regarding the covenant p1anks OF
the respective platforms, johnson had
this to say:
Both the republicans and demo
Gratis in their platforms have INDUCED

never the less those platforms in di-
rect opposition to each other sharply
define and clearly present the dues-
| ton for decision in the November
| election. The republicans were asked
to insert in their platform a plank
presented by Murray Crane of Massa-
chusetts and the league to enforce
tpeace, declaring for the presidents
covenant of the league of nations.
with proper reservations. Emphati
calIy this was rejected.
"1n its stead the republican party
declared that the presidents covenant
failed signally to accomplish it's as
serted purpose, and contained stipu-
latfons not only intolerable for an mde-
pendent people but certain to produce
the injustice. hostility and controversy
among nations which it proposed to
prevent and repudiated to degree
wholly unnecessary and untustt1able
the time honored policies in favor of
peace declared by Washington, Jeffer-
son and Monroe.
''rhe republican party therefore
stands firmly against the presidents
covenant as presented, denounces it
as breeding war rather than promot-
ing peace, and reaf1iirms the time hon.
ored, nation old policies of Washing-
ton, jefferson and Monroe.
"The democratic party on the other
hand, rejected every effort to modify
or qualify the presidents proposed
League of nations, endorsed the presi7
dents attitude and took its position
in favor Of the league as presented;
It Is true that the democrats in an
effort to placate, say something about
reservations which might make clear
or or more specific the obligations of
