ROME, March 5..--The Epoca, com
mentiEg to-day on the Inauguration of
president Harding, says the passing Of
the Presidential powers from Mr.. Will
son to Mr.. Harding definitely closes
the historic period in which the United
states collaboratcd with Europe in a
cause which seemed to it worldwide.
but which quickly became European
again.
The Tribuna. in welcoming President
harding, says he is called upon to gov
ern 105,000,000 people who now are
the richest and most powerful in the
world"
The newspaper expresses the hope
that at the moment Mr.. Harding takes
the reins of government he under
stands the impossibility of the United
States completely disintcresting itself
IN Europe, declaring the commercial,
economic and financial position of the
United States to be intimately inter
mingled with those of Europe and the
world. The Tribuna says the inherit
ance an left by Mr.. Wilson to President
Harding in the political field is not
brilliant. Twice before. it declares,
the Democrats left power under unfav-
orable conditions, but the situation was
better than that of to-day. President
Harding, The Tribuna says, is faced
with immense difficulties, but is of first
class fiber. is intelligent and possesses
the qualities necessary to cope with the
situation.

Expects Fair Attitude
End of League Predicted

Offer World Something
Better, Tageblatt Hopes

BERLIN, March 5.-From the Ger
man standpoint it may have been
hoped that President Harding would
assume another position than that in
dicatcd in his inaugural address, says
the Lokal Anzeiger to-day in it's COM
ment on the American Presidential ut
texance, but from the American view
point 1t thinks there is no denying the
wisdom Of an attitude which reserves
the right of freedom of action in Eu-
ropean affairs.
1T is safe to assume" concludes this
newspaper, "that the new President
will not fall into the mistakes which
soy"
The Tageblatt processes to see in
thc speech Americas fat and final re-
lection of the League Of Nations. but
1t believes that President Harding
will not dig the grave OF the league
without offering The world something
rcw and better. His program calls for
compulsory international tribunal.
and probably with this in mind he
called Mr.. Hughes TO the Cabinet.
Respects Hughcss Ability
"As an international diplomatist Mr..
Hughes is an unknown quantity, per-
haps novice, even a dilettante, but 1t
IS known that he is a jurist Of the
highest quality, and this augurs we'll
for the world court plan"

The text Of the speech, retranslated
rom the French version did not reach
berlin until nearly midnight, and the
morning papers were able to publish
only an indifferent summary with a
few excerpts. Consequently the com
ment was somewhat meager.
The Tagliche Rundschau, in its
editorial reference to the address. says:
'if President Harding failed to refer

the United States is content to see it's

shat it would be ';lusory to assume
that the determination Of America to
cat loose from European affairs meant
that she would assume an attitude Of
opposition TO the Entente and of sup
port Of Germany.
The Cabinet and the leaders of the
Reichstag remained in consultation un-
Ill late last evening, evidently awaiting
the authentic text Of President Hard

in coming, however. and the confer
ence had adjourned just as the first

america Her Champion
Alarnys, France Believes

PARIS, March S. French official
circles, after careful study Of Presi-
dent Hardings inaugural address, re-
gard it as justifying French opinion
that the United States would always
champion France in matters of right
and Justice and declare that no cause
for disappointment or encouragement
is to be found in the message. While
satisfaction was expressed with Mr..
Harding's declarations, regret was felt
that there was nothing to indicate his
attitude toward the Versailles Treaty
end other problems.
Officials professed to find in the ad-
dress support of their opinion that the
United States would be brought into Il
league, but said they preferred not to
discuss the present covenant, although
asserting Willingness to have it amply
amended so it could be understood that
the United States would not be called
on to participate in problems not con-
cerning her.
The Temps lays stress on the opti-
mism it finds in the message, noting that
this trait is thoroughly American" !"
1t praises the passages declaring for
non-entanglement as supplying "a re-
markable model OF patriotism" and
notes that the President docs not
fear to consider the possibility Of war"
Glad Of His Frankness
Recognizing the significance of the
the Temps adds: "But there is in the
message a phrase the Importance of
which surpasses all the others: There
was no American failure to resist the
attempted reversion Of civilization:
the~e will be no failure to-day or to-
morrow"
The lntrasigeant says thanks are due
10 President Harding for speaking with
clearness and frankness. The message,
1t says. in its references to non-en-
tangtaments brings establishments.
but. continues the newspaper, "the
essential thing is that it has not dis
:llusioned the Allies at London await
ing the German reply" and it thinks
that Germany will find small comfort
in the address.
President Harding" says the Jour
nal des Debats. reserves freedom of
action, but he admits that events might
compel him to take stand even in
Europe in affairs involving civilization
and liberty. President Harding would
not let Germany again throw herself
upon the civilized nations"
Disappointment that Mr. Harding
failed to make definite statements re-
gardiug his attitude on important
affairs in Europe WAS evident in some
of the papers.

Mr.. Harding's address Contained no
