Senator Criticizes Harding

Obregon's Government

Hughes Too Secretive'
Insists There Is Close Under
standing Between Oil Men
and United States Officials

From The Tribuaos Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, July 19.-Recogni-
tion of the obregon government in
Mexico was demanded by Senator Ladd
to-day in Senate speech in which the
likelihood of new progressive party
in this country was mentioned.
Senator Ladd was sharply critical of
the course of President Harding and
Secretary Hughes toward Mexico, the
West Indies and Central America. He
charged there was close understand
ing between American oil companies in
Mexico and the State Department to
force Mexico to revoke domestic legis-
lation and to sign a treaty distasteful
to it's legally elected officials. He called
the Administration policy toward the
West Indies and Central America
wholly imperialistic"
The Senator charged that Secretary
Hughes was as secretive in the Mexi-
can negotiations as diplomat of the
old European school. He declared the
great majority of the American people
and great majority of both houses
Of Congress favored recognition at
once.
He expressed doubt whether the

Miller Resolution
Not Disparaggingg g to
Harding, Says Clynn
Speaker Machold Used SUI
perlative Because of Coy
ernor's Record, State G..
o. p. Chairman Declares

"There Is nothing invidious or dis
paraging to President Harding in the
State Committees Endorsement of Gov
ernor Miller as the leading statesman
of the day." said George A. Glynn,
chairman of the Republican State Com
about the political significance of the
resolution adopted by the State Com
mittee on Tuesday.
Speaker Machold knew what he
wanted to say in the resolution, and
he apparently sensed the committees
appreciation of the Governors serv-
ices," said Chairman Glynn. "He used
the superlative degree because, no
doubt, he has become impressed with
the extraordinary record made by Gov
ernor Miller in the last year and
half. A year ago it is doubtful if any
member of the committee would have
made the resolution so strong, but in
the light Of the record of accomplish
ment, acknowledged by opponents as
we'll as by friends, it is not surprising.
Governor Miller's record is of great
benefit to the party in the campaign
upon which we are just entering. The
Governor told the people he would re-
organize the state departments, reduce
expenses and improve the service at
the same time. He has done that very
thing. AS to his being the next Re-
publican candidate fer Governor, that
rests with him. He is not seeking a
denomination. The state organization
is proceeding with its work on the
assumption that the Governor will re-
spect the party mandate and accept
rem omination. There is no doubt in
the minds of Republicans that he will
be reelected, if candidate. Many
leading Democrats admit he cannot
be beaten. 1t will make little differ
ence to us who is nominated by the
Democrats. Governor Miller is the
man of the hour. With his feet on
the ground, with sure knowledge of
what is needed at Albany, the Re-
publicans Of the state may look for
ward to the outcome of the campaign
with the greatest confidence"

Polynesian art designs Is in progress
here by Miss Ruth H. Greiner, ethno-
logist and Bishop Museum fellow of
Yale university, in connection with
the comprehensive endeavors to clear
the mystery surrounding the origin
of the Polynesian race.
Miss Greiner has completed her
study Of Marquesan island designs
and Is working now on those of the
Hawaiian islands which will be fol-
lowed by those of the Samoans, Ton
gans and .Maoris.
Disharmony in Marquesan culture
Is shown by their apparent very low
standards in certain forms Of art and
the very. high developments in other
kinds, she said in comment upon her
discoveries. Low standards are
found in their textile arts and deco
rations, but highly developed art was
discovered in the designs of orna-
mental lashings, wood carvings and
| tattooings.
