cox TO VISIT HERE;
WILL GO TO EUROPE
Comes for Passports and to
Be Dinner Guest-PoIi-
tics Remote.

Announcement that former Gov. Cox
OF Ohio is coming to Washington next
week to spend several days set the
politicians to gossiping today and
the question was at once raised
whether his visit would be made the
occasion for discussing plans for re-
habilitation of democratic party pol
itics.
Inquiry in authoritative quarters de-
veloped a statement of facts that
foiled fine line of political specula-
ton which shows the embarrassment
sometimes occasioned political gos-
sipers by the intrusion of facts.
According to tie statement OF facts,
which. of course, is accepted at par,
Mr.. Cox and Mrs. Cox are coming to
Washington to See friends prior to
their departure for Europe, and while
here passports will be obtained. They
while in the city, and Mr.. Ansberry
will entertain at dinner at which Mr..
Cox will be the guest of honor
Democrats of prominence insist that
1t is yet too early to take up party
rehabilitation, contending that for
the present the democrats can be
content to rest on the side lines and
going to the mat with their own
troubles-and from the democratic
viewpoint the republicans have a
plenty of them.
Some democratic leaders think that
IL the party can for while follow
tho example set by Mr. Micawber,
the opposition party is bound to cause
something to turn up which will re-
dound to the advantage Of the demo-
Gratis.

dustries of the whole nation alike.
was bespoken by President-elect
Harding last night. in a message to
the people of the south. !.
The message. written at the request
of Clark Howell, editor of the Atlanta
Constitution, and democratic national
committeeman for Georgia, follows:
"Of course, I have no message to
the people Of the south that I would
not gladly utter to all the United
interested to know. however, of one
ambition which 1 cherish. I want to
be the irstrumentality in establishing
that complete concord of union
which I hold to be essential to the
American fulfillment. I realize how
the political solidarity of the south
followed the unfortunate days of the
civil war. know how that solidarity
has been encouraged on the one hand,
and I think I understand the desire
to break it on the other hand.
""There is little left OF the oid-time
hostility and there isn't any occasion
for any section of America to pin its
aspirations to the fortunes of one
party. believe most cordially in
prospering America first. I do not
see how we can retain our home mar
kets. upon which American good for
tune must be founded. and at the same
time maintain American standards of
production and American standards of
living, unless we make other peoples
with lower standards pay for the priv
ilege Of trading in the American mar
kets. Ours is the best market in the
world, because we are largest in con-
sumption and the ablest to buy.
'I am sure the incoming administra-
tion wishes to see. fguratively speak
ing, every southern port whitened by
the sails of commerce and know that
our carriers are taking messages of
good will and amity along with our
cargoes to all the marts of the earth"
