BORAH BEGINS HIS . CAMPAIGN AGAINST
 LEAGUE OF NATIONS
Western Senator Speaks in Behalf of IrrecOncilable
 in New England

Danbury, Conn.,, Oct. 4.--America' 3 entry into an association of nations which has beer proposed by Senator Harding as a substitute for the lea que of nations as drawn at Versail- les was opposed here tonight by Sen ator Borah, Republican of Idaho. Op- ening four days speaking tour in support of the candidacy of Senator Brandagee, another Republican ire concilable" opponent of the league Senator Borah declared that the thing which made the United States powerful for the good as its com- plete freedom and it's embarrassed right to throw it's influence on the side of justice and peace in every great crisis of affairs"
 "Our ripght as people" said Sen ator Borah, "unembarrassed by alli- ances, leagues or associations to de- termine for ourselves in every cri- sis and in the fsce of every con fronting situation, what it is our duty to do and what is in the inter- est of humanity and civilization to do, involves the whole question of self government, the whole ques7I tion of an independent republic and venture to say that the voters of the Republican party will never com promise this right.
 Asks Questions.
 "The real question which this whole league scheme presents to the average citizen is this:
 Shall we go into Europe and take upon ourselves as a people, and as a part of our burdens and obligations, the turmoil, strife, racial conflicts and the imperialistic schemes of. the old world, or shall we stay out? Keep that plain, influential proposition before you.
 All these schemes lead to but one stination-Europe. Whether you have it with or without reservations, all leads to Europe and joins your children and your children's child ren to their councils, their standards of living, their conceptions of govern ment, their wars and their internal diplomatic intrigue just now tor menting Europe as it has for 300 years.
 "Whether you call the scheme a league, a concert of powers, an alli- ance or an Association, they all lead to Europe and place upon the already bending backs of American taxpay> CTS their scheme of exploitation and waste, and upon the shoulders of the American youth the military burdens which must eventually grow out of this scheme
 "This is the reason why Lloyd George is perfectly willing for us to come in on our own terms, this is the reason why Viscount Grey is willing for us to fix up our own method For they understand and have so de- clared that once in, the method of getting in is immaterial.
 "Witness some of the scenes at Versailles, such as the betrayal of China-the deal by which Shantung was bartered away to unfriendly pow CT. America sat in this settlement and was silent.
 If not silent then by reason of her association powerless. That is the first time in all her history that she connived at the betrayal of a friendly people and broke every pledge, legal and moral, which a peo- pie could make.
 "And that is the first time that the United States ever sat in on a European settlement"

 U. 5, TO ACQUIRE
 CABLE INTERESTS
American Commission to De- eide Only War Claim Made
 By Uncle Sam

Washington, Oct. 1. 4.-President Will son is understood to be taking a per sonal interest in problems to be con sdered at the preliminary session of the International Communications commission to be held here October s. American claims for a share in the German cables seized by France, Great Britain and Japan in 1914, are to be taken up, but it was said to- day that Mr. Wilson was particularly anxious for improvement in commun- ication of press dispatches as q means toward promotion of interna- tional comity and good will.
 The presidents interest was indi- cated, it was said, when he added der-Secretary Davis of the state department to the American commits sion. As originally constituted the American commission was composed of Admiral Benson, Walter B. Rogers and Postmaster General Burleson. Tn recognition of the diplomatic impor- tance of the conference, however, the chairmanship was transferred from Postmaster Beurleson to Secretary Davis.
 Consult News Agencies. The American commissioners were in conference today with representa- tives of various press associations, which receive and transmit news dis patches by cable. The meetings are for the purpose of getting the views of various interests for the informa tion of the American delegates.
 Of the 23,500 miles of German ca bles at the beginning of the world war, it was said that the United States hoped to receive share be- cause of later participation in the war and President Wilson is known to have taken an active part in de- Alterations in Paris to questions of allocation of the German lines. Vir- tually the only war questions put forward by the United States involv- ed these cables and were based on the forty year contract previously ex- isting between the Postal Telegraph and Cable company and Perman ca ble interests for the use of German transatlantic cables, diverted by the French and British to their own needs.
