HARDING IS LETTER
SAYS ISOLATION IS
BLOW To RELIGION
Tottering European Countries
Too Badly in Need Of Spir-
ituaI Encouragement, the
President Insists

WASHINGTON, June S.-Presi
dent Harding declared in a letter
made public Thursday that by &C
ceptine membership in the world
court the United States may make
its largest feasible contribution to
the sterilization of civilization while
at the same time surrendering moth
ing of the advantages and independ-
ence" now enjoyed by the Ameri
can people"
The presidents letter was ad-
dressed to Bishop Thomas f. !Gailor.
of Tennessee, head of the National
Council of the Protestant Episcopal
church, who had written the presi-
dent that there were many thou
sands of citizens who deem it
matter of honor that in some way
the American nation should con-
tribute its influence to rehabllltate
the countries of Europe.
you know we are all human
enough to have the feeling that the
man who agrees with us is the
broad minded and really intelligent
person." the president wrote in re
ply. Not many days ago I made
the observation to my newspaper
callers that did not believe any
man could confront the RESPONSE
bilitv of a president of the United
States and yet adhere to the idea
that it was possible for our country
to maintain an attitude of isolation
and aloofness in the world.
eft is my concern first that there
shall be an effective recognition oil
this fact. and that those who, be-
cause of their positions are earliest
compelled to realize this situation
NAV be assured the understanding
and the sympathetic support of the
3 great intelligent public opinion o.
the country. Beyond that, 1 am
keenly DESTROYS that the right
course shall be found, whereby ou
favored country may make Its
largest feasible contribution to the
sterilization of civilization while al
the same time surrendering nothing
ofjthe advantages and independence

thought, study and conference,
reached the conclusion that our ad
herence to the program Of the inter
national court represented com
pliance with these conditions.
"It is a longer step than SOM
would wish us to take in this di
rection. On the other hand, it is
less advance than some others woul'
wish us to take, but to me it seems
to meet the requirements of ou
peculiar situation, and permits III
to say to the world that we ar
ready for our part in furtherln|
peac eand stability, without entan
element or surrender of cherished
policy, to which we are long AM
strongly committe.

JUDGE STEPHENS
SAID To PLAN RACE
FOR SENATE SEAT

WASHINGTON, Ga, June L.
The Washington News-Rep ,rter, in
it's edition today, prints a story in
dicating that Judge Alex w. Ste
phens, Of the state court OF appeals,
may enter the next Democratic lrj-
mary as a candidate for the United
States senate in opposition to Sen
at0r William j. lIaryiit'.
The story in the Washington
New s-Renor+er follows.
"JuG%e Alex w. Stepncns, of the
Georgia appeals court, may lie a
candidate IN the neXt primary elcc-
ton for the senatorial. toga held by
Senator William j. Harris. That
Judge Stephens has been impOrtuned
from many and influential political!
sources to aspire to the United
States senate is known to be true
and that he has the suggestion un-
der serious consideration was indi
Gated by him in conversation at the
Washington hotel Monday afternoon
shortly after his arrival with par.
ty from Atlanta.
"While the distinguished jurist
did not say in so many words that
it is within the realm of human
probability that he will try conclu
sions with Georgia'S senior senator
in which he handled the subject of
the senatOrship was more than cas-
ual indicating that already the idea
of his availability is lurking in his
mind. However, there was nothing
in what Judge Stephens said in
Washington to authorize the as
sumption statement from him oil
the subject of the senatorship and
a race by him for the seat may be
expected by the people in the i'm
mediate future.
Judge Stephens has many warm
personal and political friends in this
section of the state-aS has Sena-
tor Harris-and the suggestion Of
his candidacy for a seat in the up
per branch of the congress, even in
a tentative way, has aroused their
interest.
'Following closely on the heels

since the adjournment of congress-
the intimation, at least, that Judge
Stephens will be a senatorial can
didate may be expected to produce
more than a ripple on the states
political waters, his friends declare
