Helena, Mont, Sept. 9-Arguments
in behalf of the League of Nations,
adapted to the affairs of the west,
were presented here today by Gov.
Cox. He outlined what he declared
were practical and material benefits
to flow from the league.
"There have recently been figures

Cox said the United States is looked
upon as a nation of cutters, self

our associates as well as our enemies
in Europe are starving to death"
He also urged against separate
peace with Germany and urged world
disarmament. He again criticized
"the senate oligarchy," and reiterat-
ed his preachment of progress as
against reactionarism.
