PREDICTS DEFEAT
Of ADMINISTRATION

A magnificent appeal for Ame,,i-
the world to prevent war and to re-
establish economic security was de-
livered Tuesday afternoon before ths,
Atlanta Kiwanis Club by James NJ.
Cox, former governor of Ohio and
Democratic presidential nominee in
1920.
In addition to a very full attend
ance of Atlanta KiWanians, the meet
ing was attended by a large number
of prominent Atlantains specially in
Vited, as well as by numerous visit
ing Kiwanians in the city for the
day.
Few of those present had eve
heard Governor Cox and therefore
knew him by reputation only as a
public speaker. In the presidential
campaign of 1920 he consumed no
time making speeches in the "solid
south" His powerful logic and
earnest eloquence Tuesday album
dainty sustained his reputation as
one of the aountry's ablest public
speakers.
At the close he was given a pro.
longed ovation and practically tn
entire gathering crowded around him
to shake hands and congratulate him
in the Warmest terms.
He spent the day here en-route
from a vacation at Miami to his;
home in Dayton. He was the guest
of Charles j. Haden at breakfast at
the Capital City Club and after that
the guest of the KiWanis Club. He
left at 4 o'clock for Dayton.
In the outset of his address Cove,
nor Cox paid his respects to the po-
Icy of isolation. He declared the
language Of George Washington,
when he warned the young republic
to beware of entangling foreign al
liances" was not SO much an admoni-
ton for the future as warning
against the efforts of England and
France to involve us in their quar-

Points Changed Conditions

OHdUSSu
But even admitting for the sake of
argument that it was intended as an
admonition, Governor Cox pointed
out, George Washington was a dis
tiller and a slave owner. and nobody
thought anything of it; but distillingc
and slavery have both been prohibit
ed by law
All nations, he continued, are
grea economic unit, and if one is
brought near paralysis, the death of
al lis threatened, and the logical and
sensible procedure in such a case is
to supply the affected part with life
giving blood.
We have both selfish and moral
reasons, Governor Cox declared, for
concerning ourselves with the peace
of the world and with economic re-
Mobilization. The highest moral rea-
son, he said, is found in the teachings
of Christ, (which teaches us what
our national creed ought to be-"
lie presented an outline of his tour
of Europe last summer, when he
travelled by automobile through
FRANCE, Italy, Austria, Germany,
Switzerland, Belgium and the Brit
ish Isles. There can be no complete
study of European conditions, he
stressed, without contacts with the
people in the rural districts as well
as the cities.
What is our economic concern in
European conditions?' he continued.
"Our concern is just this, that our
prosperity in this country grows
mainly out Of the taking up of the
sslack of the war, and when thai
process is over our prosperity will
be over, unless meanwhile we have
re-established our foreign markets.
All of us know that we can have no
prosperity without a market for our
surplus-and our surplus comprises
about one-third of what we produce.
Our experts have fallen off almost to
stagnation in many lines. Our farm
loan bank loans are chiey to replace
the losses of our farers due to de-
alton
Preparations the Problem
Preparations, Governor Cox then
asserted, are tn ecruX of the whole
European situation; and the repara-
tons question has got into a dead
lock between France and Germany
because the agencies created by the
Versailles treaty to deal with the
question have functional Inadequate
