How They Feel
The firm beliefs of what the cam
paign has wrought each faction were
outlined to the United Press as FOL
lows:
President Coolidge - Believes his
unique campaign of remaining in
the White House at the Nation s
work, instead Of stumping the coun-
try, has been most effective and
highly suCcessful: that his strength
in New England and the East will
sweep westward and absorb any in
roads the La Toilette independents
have made. assuring him of election
by a big majority.
John w. Davis-The Democratic
nominee believes his two tours west,
which carried his campaign as far
as Colorado and Wyoming. Will reap
unexpected fruits at the polls; that
the surveys which have been taken
are prcjudiced and misleading
against him; that preliminary fig
ures and estimates are useless, and
that "the silent vote" will elect him
the next President.
He confidently expects the sol
dier vote because OF the bonus, the
labor vote because Of the recent
switches in union Endorsements in
New York. the bulk Of the women s
vote on the basis of his managers
statements and the anti-Klan vote
because of his strong position
against the Ku-Klux Klan.
Robert NJ. La Believes
that under the surface Of condl.
ttons the people throughout the
country are aroused against the two
major parties and will vote for him
in uncalculated numbers: that more
than 60 per cent of the laborers will
cast for him because of his indorse-
ments; thatl the least he can expect
to throw the election into Congress
and run IN second place.

Formed Protective fsonas.

The State Department phase brings
to light that 10 of the leading Amer
loan corporations operating in China
about siX months ago formed Il pro-
teetive association for the purpose of
safeguarding their activities across
the Pacific. The American Material
Creditors Committee OF the Chinese
Government is the official title.
This creditors COMMITTEES, II Is
learned, In the past 10 days sent
communication TO Secretary OF state
HusheF. The letter expressed ss
their unanimous opinion that any in
crease III Chinese customs should be
for the purpose OF taking up overdue
foreign obligations OF the Chinese
government, rather than for aiithori-
zation Of new projects and construc-
ton. Selief was expressed that this
would be the only way to re-estab-

Tor it's healthy economic development.
1t was also felt that the Japanese.
and perhaps some others. would ngree

contrary TO what American business
men believed was best for China. but
best for their own best interests.
G. Stanley Glines, chairman OF the

Commerce. expressed the opinion
that q committee composed OF busi-
ness men Of the various foreign
bowers would stand a better chance
Of arriving at some constructive con-

The records show that his committee
a year ago recommended that any In
crease in Chinese customs be used a.
now advocated by the American ma
terial creditors.
Mr.. 6lines also pointed to the ef-
fectiveness Of the Dawes commission,
a body constituted on similar lines TO

emphasized, however. taat any such
commission would be for the purpose
