| SAYS HARDING
Declares "Weird Theories Have
All But StangIed Ameri-
can Business"

MARION, Ohio. Sept. 11.-Senator
Warren G Harding launched attacks
on the Wilson Administration along
two fronts today.
Addressing a delegation Of nearly
500 Chicago and Indianapolis busi-
ness men from his front porch this
morning, he charged that a bun
Cling Administration which could
not even run it's own business" has
put its hands on the throat Of Amer
lean business" and all but strangled
il with "wefrd economic theories and
Socialistic tendencies" He pledged
himself. if elected, TO let legitimate
business alone and run the Govern
ment on business-like basis.
DECEIVED, HE SAYS.
In a later speech to a delegation
OF northern Indiana and Michigan
Republicans, Senator Harding assert
ed that America has narrowly escap-
ed losing her Monroe Doctrine. or
going tS war to preserve it,
He said America was being deceiv-
ed about the Monroe Doctrine article
OF the League OF Nations covenant
The covenant. he explained. is writ
ten in both English and French. In
parallel columns. In Article III,
dealing with the doctrine. Senator
Harding declared that the English
text said one thing and the French
another. The French version. he as.
serted, does not guarantee the in
tegrity OF the Monroe Doctrine, and
in case of controversy would
subordinate 1t almost to the point
OF complete abandonment"
Senator Harding combined the two
addresses into a message to the
business men OF America" and COM
pared the entrance into the League Of
Nations with the signing of a bust
ness contract.
we are the great business nation
of the world. he said. "we shall be
able to save that business with
! fair measure of common sense, and
we must do il.
American business is not big BUSH
ness. The big business of America 10
the little business OF America. Will
ful FOLLY has been displayed by those
persons in power over our national
anairs who have spoken of American
business as II II were large and
selfish interest seeking special privi-
leges and who, on that basis, have
put their bmgling hands on its
throat and tried tinkering and ex-
perimenting with it and abusing it
Let's put an end to holding success
to be crime.
The blow directed at American
business, the pulling and hauling by
weird economic and social theories
applied by an administration which
could not even run it's own business,
is less menacing to the one-tenth who
are business executives than it is 10
the nine-tenths who are American
laborers and who begin to realize that
another year or two Of the group who
are in perfect accord will mean for
American labor a no hour day."

"Our divorce laws are stupidiy

CITY CLUB PLANS
TO REMODEL HOME
Governors to Improve Present
Quarters Pending Erection
of New Building.

With extensive civic and social pro.
grams now being arranged by Off
ciais of the City Club for the fall and
winter season, the board OF governors
OF the Organization Is bending every
effort toward improving facilities at
Square, pending the election of a per-
manent home. which has been post
poned temporarily because of eco
nomic conditions.
With q view to furnishing club
members the best possible facilities
the board has instructed the clubs
building committee to make a survey
| of the present clubhouse property and
recommend such changes as they
think will render it Of greater ser,
viceability.
The building committee is composed
of James Sharp. chairman; Thomas
Bones. d. B. Casley. e. c. Graham. and
Oscar A. Thorup. The committee in
tends to consult with Frederic B.
Pyle, architect OF the new clubhouse
and Samuel J. Prescott, builder.

believe II will be possible. at COM
| paratievly small expense, to trans
form the present structure into a
temporary home that will adequately
eerve the needs OF the membe rship
until the club finds itself in a posi-
tion to proceed with the erection of a
new home
It has been pointed out by members
tof the board that by eliminating Ger,
tain partitions and reducing slight
ly the number OF 6edrooms il will be
possible to increase materially the
amount OF space available for general
club purposes; and IL also is believed
that some OF the clubs departments
may be advantageously shifted SO as
to make them more attractive to
members

Her more valuable gems she placed
in some other place. believing that
