menting against the splendid accord
established yesterday between Presi-

Senator Harding declared in state
ment today that triumph of the Dem
ocratic ticket this year would mean
"a continuation of the foreign policy
which has so grievously disappointed
both Europe and America
I'VE are beginning to understand" "
said Senator Harding" the mistaken
ly plighted relationship of the United
States to Europe just in time to pro-
ceed to a reform in policy"
'The only representative of this
country, other than the President, TO
best know the whole situation at
Paris, is Colonel House" He tells
us now in a cabled statement from
London that "the suggestion of a pre-
liminary peace treaty was made very
soon after the armistice and that such
a treaty could have been made by
Christmas, 1918. All along this has
been the Republican conception OF
what ought TO have been done, but
this is the first official knowledge
that Europe wished such a proce-
dure and was delayed by us in ex-
pediting peace"
