lie, The Times says, "Nor would it Be
sanctioned by any civilized nation, were
it proposed" The newspaper asserts
that national sovereignty is not in
question, and adds:
That misconception removed, if it
be tangible misconception. we can
welcome without reserve Mr.. Harding's
declaration that the American people
have come to a new realization of our
place in the world.''
Referring to Mr.. Harding's state
ment that Americans are ready to en-
courage seemly program, The Times
says:
mo sensible man of the Allied ma
tions ever doubted it. But the Ameri-
can people Will understand that the
relation of these ideals to the working
OF their constitutional institutions is
ct times matter of perplexity in Eu-
rope: There is perplexity now
at the attitude Of the United States
toward the League of Nations, but no
tendency to deny the American people
the right to decide for themselves the
steps they shall take toward the re-
alization Of the great ideals which
President Harding proclaimed.
His declaration implies some form
Of obligation, and peoples sharing these
ideals will look forward with anxious
hope TO see by what action the Presi-
dent of the United States will redeem
this promise to civilized mankind
The advent Of q new Administration
is welcomed by The Chronicle, which
says
I'VE shall now be able once more
to ascertain the American policy as
something definite and stable-a very
great gain to everybody" 1t is of the
opinion that the Presidents reference
to disarmament was the principal for
eign point in his speech, declaring that
Great Britain certainly will do every
thing possible to support his prac-
tically conceived initiative.
The principles which Mr.. Harding
laid down, comments The Express, do
not differ materially from those of
George Washington.
"Mr. Harding definitely repudiates
tions." it adds. $50 far as we see he
is nothing but an aloof, self f-centered
American
His statement sAmerica is ready to
encourage, eager to initiate, anxious
TO participate in any seemly program
likely to lessen the probability of war
and promote that brotherhood of man
kind which must be Gods highest con-
ception Of human relationship asso-
ciates America with the task of re-
building the war-shattered world on
terms which will be readily accepted
by the other English speaking peo-
pies"
The Laborite Herald sums up its i'm
preston Of Mr.. Harding's address as
follows:
The voice of big business rang out
with a challenge. Mr.. Harding sighed
over the prospect of the old wage
never returning and told the workers,
with plenty of thunder. that America
was no place for revolution"

With his Cabinet and with Congress
10 his mind the inauguration was
simply an occasion for reaffirminp a
robust faith in America
Abroad as well as at home the part
of President Hardings address which
Will be read with the keenest interest
and closest scrutiny is that which deals
with international relations. On this
subject he is cautious and vague. The
net of the whole is that President
Harding is obviously leaving the de-
tails to be labored by Secretary
Hughes.
1t would be easy to single out pas
sages of the inaugural for criticism.
It's description of the Pres dental cleo
ton as one in which the issue was
whether "internationality was to SUI
presede nationality" is an unhappy
partisan leftover, grotesquely wide Of
the facts. 1t would be easy, also. TO
praise particular sentences, such AS
those in which the President asserts
the firm purpose of Americans to
"unfurl the flag of law and order
whenever there is threat of revolution
or attempts to upset lawful procedure
by force. But it is sufficient to refer
to the new Presidents general tone
and outlook. in which the country will
find nothing that is disturbing and
much that is hopeful

"Mr. Wilson's retirement" said the
Excelsior, "is cause for nationwide
rejoicing in Mexico, which for eight
long years has been obliged to suffer
from the caprices of a man who alone
Is responsible for our unhappiness and
miseries"
The editorial continued to some
length in the same vein, and said in
conclusions: "Mr. Wilson has been a
c.oua OF poisonous gas which has pushed
user over our country. He has caused
many to fall and has sown the fever of
o'scontent. Our history will bitterly
record him as the man who, to our dis
grace, has occupied the post once held

The comment OF Ne1O York morn
ing newspapers on the Harding IN
auguration is epitomi~ed IN the fol-
lowing abstracts:
The World
President Hardng's inaugural ad-
dress is a dignited state paper. 1t is
state paper that breathes kind
thoughts. good intentions and a gen
erous spirit. 1t is the message Of a
President who plainly desires above
everything else to harmonic all the
conflicting elements in the national
life und all the conflicting problems
which he is called on to solve.
Those who expected a detailed pro-
gram of government will be disap-
pointed, forgetting that inaugural ad-
dresses do not usually deal with de-
tailed programs of governments and
forgetting, too, that Mr.. Harding s
partv came into power without a
definite program. If he is sill crop
ing in the dark it is because his party
is still cropping in the dark. 1t would
be wholly unfair to hold him per-
sonally responsible for circumstances
over which he has no control.

ding tried. IN his inaugural addzess, ia

cost of $4,000 a year, and there is a
housekeeper who has been in charge

expense of personal servants is borne
by the President. Mrs Harding has
retained the services of Incz McWhor-

she found four cooks and four chauf

All food for the White House table

Of the dominant faction of the Repub-
lican party toward the questions of
government for which it must now
provide constructive policies That
faction is highly conservative. 1t can
rightly be described as reactionary.
Nevertheless, it is the faction that die
tated the national platform of the
party, that dictated the nomination at
Chicago and that carried the elections
Mr.. Harding has yet to prove that
he measures UP to his opportunities or
his responsibilities, but he is certainly
not to be condemned in advance or
prejudged. Even his political op-
ponents can at least meet him half
way r the generous spirit Of his in
augural address.
The New York Herald
President Harding's inaugural ad-
dress is preemnently dedication of
his mind and his heart, with modest
humility and humble reverence, to pure,
undiluted Americanism, IN which his
simple thought is not obscured by the
tawdry rhetoric wherein it is some
times clothed. His devotion to the in
stitutions of his country is secure. His
faith in the purpose and conscience of
the nation is serene. His confidence
in the responsibility of his fellow citi-
zens is unalloyed.
All this President Harding reveals in
his solemnly expressed reliance on
divine guidance, his unaffected belief
in the lasting triumph of the Republic
and his earnest petition for the support
of his countrymen.
And let it be said at the start that
with this utterance of the new Execu-
tive of the nation the last glimmering
ember of hope of those who have
try into the League of Nations dies.
He puts the league and the covenant
away from him unequivocally and
finally. He rejects definitely any sem
blance of Mr.. Wilson's dream and crea-
ton. He clings irrevocably to the
ideals, the works and the doctrine of
the founding fathers"
So ends the League, so far as con-
Germs America, with the covenant and
all their dreams and visions.
1t is with such natural perception
and sober spirit that President Harding,
facing the burdens and trials before
may thus express his thought and
word, the hundred millions who are to
share with him the responsibility and
concern. 1t is with such unaffected
personal humility, coupled with stead
fast allegiance to public duty, that he
outlines to them his work in an inaugu-
raj address of which it may be said.

brilliant in the way of Wilson, fiery
and inspiring in the way Of Roosevelt,
majestic and awe-striking in the way
of Lincoln, but of which it shall be said
