They say that If the United
States had not used its influence
in the making of the peace, safety
for France and the other nations
as against Germany would have
been provided for in the peace

patton of the United States in the

JOHNSON SEES
CLEAR ISSUE
Harding Is Out and Out
Against Wilson League,
Declares Californian.

New York. Oct. Ex-senator HI
ram W. Johnson, of California,
spoke tonight at Hoboken. He de-
clared that Senator Harding stands
for outright rejection of the league
of nations, and there is nothing am
biguous or uncertain in his decla-
ration of attitude.
Senator Johnson's remarks were
vigorously applauded. He said in
part:
For reasons OF their own, GER
tain interested individuals and
newspapers may misrepresent and
misinterpret his words. 1 resent
these imputatiOns upon the sincerity
of the utterances of. the candidate.
and the manifest endeavor in some
quarters to distort his plain
language
From those who believe as I do,
he is entitled to not only the warm
est cOmmendation, but the strong
est advocacy and most enthusiastic
support. The issue today is the
league OF nations as presented by
President Wilson, which Cox says
he will take, and which Harding
says he won't
The men and newspapers who
pretend to be friends of Senator
Harding and who assert he Is to
take this country into the league of
nations do him a distinct disservice
and pay him sorry compliment 1
speak. of course, solely from the
public Utterances of our candidate
and these utterances make plain be-
yond cavil that when Senator Hard
ing is President he will not take
the United States into the league"

VESSEL GOES
 ON REEF AND
 IS WRECKED

The halibut schooner Scandia, owned by the National Independent Fisheries 1 Company of Seattle, was wrecked on Point Montague, at the mouth of Rocky bay, last Friday evening at 8 :45 o'clock. The vessel ran on reef during snOWstOrm and in a swift current. Captain A. Mornas and his crew of seventeen men were picked up by the cannery tender Sunset and brought to Cordova last night
 Deputy Customs Collector J. l.. Ga len is taking care of the men, who will return to Seattle on the south bound trip of the Alameda.
 The Scandia left Ketchikan on March 16 for the halibut fishing banks. AS one of the crew was taken ill, the schooner was headed for Latouche when it met with the accident. After striking the reef the crew remained aboard until the next morning in the hope of being able to float the schooner. The men then struck out in small boats for the beach, where they camped until the cannery tender came to their rescue.
 The schooner is in a precarious po- sitiOn and it's fate is uncertain. It is 90 feet long and 19 feet in breadth, and of 90 tons burden.
