HARDING SPEAKS
TO HOME FOLKS

emphatic declaration that the con-
stitutioh and laws sponsored by the
majority must be enforced, President
Harding, addressing his friends and
neighbors" who assembled at the fair
grounds here today to celebrate his
home coming, declared that "menaces
do arise" which must be suppressed
by the government pending their eff
facement by public opinion.
Coupled with this assertion was the
prediction that America will go on
and that the fundamentals of the re-
public and all it's liberties will be pre-
served"
During his address the president
touched on prohibition, discussed the
right of ga free America, not only to
labor without any others leave" but
ito bargain collectively" reviewed
the history of Marion which is cele-
brating it's Tooth birthday anniver-
sary and referred to a number of in
cidents of his earlier life. He spoke
from grandstand filled with home
folks" and visitors from surrounding
territory. Massed in front of him
was huge crowd. 1t was estimated
there were at least $4,000 persons in
the entire throng. The weather was
unusually cool.
On their arrival at the fair
grounds, the president and Mrs.
Harding were given an ovation while
frequently during his address the ex-
ecutive was interrupted by applause.
General Pershing, who also deliv-
cred an address, was loudly applaud
ed when he advocated fearless" use
of "the strong arm of the law" in
communities which openly sympa-
. thize with ruthless murder of inof-
fensive people in the exercise Of the
right to earn livelihood"
President Harding joined in the
handclapping which followed this
statement.
The president mentioned the 18th
amendment in connection with his
advocacy of strict law enforcement.
Declaring that "majorities restrained
to the protection of minorities" ever
must rule, he added.
'-%"fhe 18th amendment denies to a
minority fancied sense of personal

Of the majority and must be sustain
ed by the government and public
opinion, else contempt for the law
will undermine our very foundations u
Departing frequently from the pre-
pared text of his speech Mr.. Harding
with a smile told how he, a green vii
lage youth, once rode into Marion
from the nearby town ow Calendonia
his former home, on stubborn
mule" At another juncture he re-
marked that "back in 1895" he DROP
ped into the express office" to see
some of the fellows" there about g
civic celebration.
There was a burst of applause
when the president said he "woulc
welcome the day when can come
back to stay with you permanently
"Some of you may think it's a fine
thing to be pre- fdent." Mr.. Hard
ing remarked. "keep on thinking il
you'll find the situation very diff
ferent when you wake up"

FOR DISARMAMENT

Paris, July (By the Associated

disarmament, which was laid before
the temporary mixed commission on
disarmament of the leagne of nations
yesterday by Lord Robert Cecil of
Great Britain, was presented in full
detail at this mornings session of
the commission. The plan is said to
have been favorably received by most
of the delegates. ~
All nations, according 10 Lord Rob-
ert's plan would sign afgeneral' dis
armament and would agree to go to
the defense of nations fn their re-
spective regions or c9ntinents in
case of aggression. rs
The principal objection to Artivle
X of the league of nations, it is held,
would be met by this REGIONAL defen-
sive plan, inasmuch asf the United
States is already comrfitted to
similar policy on the AnPfican conti-
nent under the Monroe 8petrine, and
Lord Roberts plan is Resigned to
limit each nations oblie kiDns in de-
fensive alliances to such egions.
Lord Roberts plan pS8yides for a
permanent military conn lission to be
the active controlling Rffhority sub
ject to approval by the f&uncil of the
league of nations. h4commission
would determine wheth& the con-
tracing powers were c5 (plying with
the agreement for reduQpn of arma-
ments and whether any tate's prep
arations constituted a hace and if
so, what measure the her nations
should take to aid the Ate so men
aced. These measures nld be bind
ing upon the aiding I9 IS when ap-
proved by three-fourt 3majority of
the council.
The plan divides I'll world into
four regions-Americas arope, Asia
and Africa. Only the IA ers in each
region would be obliga& to aid a
menaced nation upon commits
sion's recommendation approved by
the league council. The eduction of
ornaments would be dfrmined in
advance and constantly fhecked up
and, if any nation keded the
amount of armaments Jwed under
the agreement, 1t would ~ subject to
suspension from protet pas and to
--penaltiess sesids ssssf zticle
XVI of the covenant Of the league Of
nations. The reduction would apply
to naval, military and air forces.
