Harding Rejects
League of Nations,

President Harding appeared |
before a joint session of Con
gres Tuesday and delivered his
message TO that body. This |
message, which was awaited
with great anxiety by the Amer
lean people as well as by foreign
powers. for nervousness and
straightforwardness, surprised
the country, The President did
not mince words nor straddle
any proposition, foreign or do
nestle. He rejected the exist
ing League of Nations, as indi-
Gated in his pre- election prom.
Uses, bat accepts parts of the
Treaty at Versailles, with reser-
vauouS to protect all American
interests. The salient points of
the message, with reference to
the League Of Nations, follows
sin the existing League Of Nations,

this Republic will have no part.

To protect our rights.
"It would be idle to declare for sep
arate treaties Of peace with the Central
Powers. The " User course would
seem to be the acceptance of the con
frmation Of our rights and interests as
already provided and to engage under
the existing treaty, assuming, of course,
that this can be satisfactorily accom-
plished by such explicit reservations
and notifications as will secure our
absolute freedom from inadvisable
commitments and safeguard all our

The Sixty-Ssventh Congress.

The extra session of Congress,
which convened Monday, marks
the beginning of the Legislative
construction period and the re
sponsibility for an adequate pro
gram adequately carried out
rests squarely upon the Repub-
licans. The Democratic party,
which met overwhelming defeat
in November, did not, in the
opinion of the country, measure
up to the responsibility imposed.
The people Turned to the Repub-
licans after six years of absolute
and four years of partial Demo
cratic rule, and they turned to
the Republicans with an unan-
unity which forbids any sharing
of responsibility with the Demo
Gratis. 1t is up to the Republi.
cans to do the job and it is a big
job they have to do. Iftheg fail
to do it the country will find it.
self in a dilemma, indeed. We
do not believe that they will fail
The Republican leadership in
Congress must keep its eyes on
the business program That ma
iority cannot afford to let politics
enter into the situation. Work
ing merely for selfish individual
ends, working merely further to
cmbarrass the Democrats will
not satisfy the people back home
who are interested only in get
ting things on a business basis
again. The whole tax system
must be revised; the tariff will
be altered; expenditures will be
reduced in so far as the reduc-
tions are possible; peace will be
made with Germany under the
direction of the President and
Secretary of State; methods of
restoring international trade to a
firm and profitable basis will be
considered and plans effected;
business will be given free
hand to go ahead and every Gov
eminent encouragement to bust
mess without Governmental in
reference with business will be
applied.
Such is the general program
before the Republicans. 1t will
call for strong, clear-eyed lead
ership, with never a surrender in
any case to narrow partisanship
or selfish vision.
The Republicans may be EN-
barrassed ,by their majority. 1t
is too big for easy handling
Some Of the new Republican
members elected from normally
Democratic districts may show
the inclination as time goes on to
kick over the traces in their own
particular interests. We hope
they will not, but they may. If
they do the attitude of the Re
publican leadership should be to
let them kick over. 1t will not
do to make political concessions
on business principles at this
particular session of Congress. |
The nation is in no mood for
fOOlishness.
The country will get its firsc
concrete idea Of what may be ex
