which the regular" reactionarv
element, which ought to support Mr.
Harding is either Indifferent or hos.
tile to his denomination. One Repub-
lican senator has said that the or
ganization" in Illinois is so much
opposed to his candidacy that he
would be badly beaten were he to
enter primary contest with Sena
tor Hiram Johnson, Antagonism to
the President has been growing also
in Pennsylvania. Senators Pepper
and Reed are angry because their
recommendations and objections
have been ignored in the distribu-
ton Of Federal patronage. Men who
control the Republican machine of
the State are equally sore about
other conditions which they charge
to Mr. Harding.

in favor of Mr.. Harding's plan for
American participation in the Inter
national Court, but he is not the
spokesman of Senator Lodge or of
other REPUBLICAN leaders. With
Lodge against the proposal and the
