Roosevelt S?iys

Lea?IsS?ge
Resents "Dragging" Name
of Wilson Into Discussion
of How Treaty Mas Be?
come Dominant Plank
Extols President's Role
Asserts Republicans Do Not
Know What They Will Do
About Ratifying Pact
HYDE PARK, N. Y., July 14.?Frank
lin D. Roosevelt, replying at hi? home
her? to-day to the charge o? Senator
Harding that President Wila?jn had
forced the Democratic Presidential and
Vice-Presidential nominees to accept
his view that the League of Nations
should become the dominant campaign
issue, declared he was "quito Willing,
as I know Governor Cox is, to let the
American people decide whether, they
will go back to the conditions of 1914
or whether they will join with civiliza?
tion and humanity in this great ?tep
forward."
?The attempt by Senator Harding
yesterday, " he said, "to befog the true
League of Nations issue by dragging in
the name of President Wilson is merely
further evidence of the historical fact
that a certain type of Senatorial mind
cares more about squaring an ancient
grudge against an individual than it
?loes to consider the true welfare of
the nation. It is, of course, well known
that seven-eighths of the apposition of
these Senators is not to the League of
Nations, :but to the person of the
President of the United States himself.
Say? Republicans Are Split ,
"History will take care of the great
part Woodrow Wilson has played. But
the Democratic party enters the cam?
paign with the clear-cut purpose of |
proving that the World War has notl
been fought in vain. Senator Harding j
says, 'Should the Democrats win, the
treaty and the league will be ratified.' I
He is right. No one, probably not even '
Senator Harding himself, knows what
would happen should the Republicans j
win.? ?
"One branch of his supporters, such
as Senator Hiram Johnson, assures the
nation that a Republican victory-means
no League of Nations. Another branch,
led by such men as former President
Taft, assures the nation that a Repub?
lican victory means the acceptance oi ?
the league with certain undefined res?
ervations.
Says Perils Are Vague
"The rest of Senator Harding's state?
ment is the usual vague summoning
forth of bogles and imaginary ghosts
of horrible pictures of American soldier
boys waging war in Poland, Russia and
Turkey and at the end he talks m glit?
tering terms about the charge of 'a sur?
render of the republic.'
"I yield nothing in my devotion to
the United States to Senator Harding,
to Senator Penrose, to Senator John?
son, or to any of their followers. Rather
I believe they are the ones who fail to
visualize the great future and the in?
dependent future of this nation.
"One of the prominent issues is thus
becoming early and clearly drawn. A
Democratic victory means ratification
of the treaty and the League of Nations,
which, as the world knows, is already
constituted. A Republican victory
means that the United States, with
Russia, Mexico and Turkey, shall re?
main outside. The election of Hard?
ing means that in case of future war
the United States will enter the war
after the conflict has begun. The elec?
tion of Cox means that the United
States, in particular with the other
civilized nations of the world, will,
through the League of Nations, solve
international difficulties and prevent
a recurrence of the holocaust of 1914
1918."
Will Attend Yacht Races
Mr. Roosevelt conferred with Pough
keepsie Democratic leaders this after
noon concerning tentative plans for i
the notification ceremonies at his home

Franklin D. Roosevelt, Assistant

Mrs. Catt Says

Suffrage Leader Challenges
Him to "Tell Whole
Truth" as to Refusal to
Gall Session of Legislature
"Defies the Platform"
Motive Behind Act "Depriv?
ing Women of Vote for
President" Is Demanded
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Cstt sent an
open letter to Governor Clement of
Vermont yesterday in which she chal?
lenges him "to teK the whole truth"
in regard to his refusal to call a spe?
cial session of the Vermont Legisla?
ture for the purpose of ratifying the
Federal woman suffrage amendment.
She says bis statement "impresses the
casual reader with the conviction that
you have doubtless told the truth, but
not the whole truth," and asks why
he "single handed and alone" should
assume the responsibility of defying
the platform of the Republican party
and of depriving American women of
their opportunity to vote for President
this fall.
His action, she says in conclusion,
impugns the good faith of the party
leaders and must be explained.
Mrs. Catt's Letter
The letter says in part:
"The Constitution, as interpreted by
the Supreme Court, you say, leaves 'the
people at the mercy of any group of
men who may lobby a proposal for
change of Federal Constitution thrcngh
CongresB and the legislatures if the,
states' and in the face of this situation
I am asked to call the Legislature
of Vermont into extraordinary ses?
sion/ etc. !
"Just who er what has been the
objectionable 'lobby' of this proposed
change ?
"Your national party convention in
19143 indorsed the principle of suffrage
as just, and in 1820 called for com?
pletion of ratification in time for
women to vote for the next President.
Your party's national committee in the
interim of convention took action three
times, once asking the Congress to sub?
mit the suffrage amendment, once favor?
ing early ratification, and once calling
upon Republican Governors to call
special sessions in order that ratifica?
tion might proceed.^
"Your state party Convention asked
you to call a special session. Your
party's state committee asked you to
do the same thing. Your Legislature
ha? asked you to ca^l a special session
in order that it might have the op?
portunity to take action upon the
amendment. Hundreds of Vermont
women recently visited you in one
deputation for the purpose of asking
you to call a special session. The
chairman of the National Republican
Committee and the chairman of your
State Republican Committee have asked
you to call a special session. The
candidate for President of your party
has asked you to call a special session.
This is a very distinguished and
notable group to be dismissed with
the implication that your people are
at their mercy.
Impugns Faith of Party
"We on the outside cannot believe
you 8,0 ignorant of the Federal Con?
stitution and its history as your procla?
mation implies. We cannot believe
that you so readily insult the Legisla?
ture of your state and set aside the
wishes of so distinguished a list of
your fellow-partisans without a far
more controlling motive than apepars
in your proclamation.
"Do you not know that by, your ac?
tion in the eyes of the world you im?
pugn the good faith of your party, that
party's national committee, its ac?
credited leaders, and its Presidential
nominee on the subject of ratification?
"Nobody can acCept.it m a fact that
on you is to rest the real responsi?
bility for your ?refasal te call Ver?
mont'? Legislature in. special seesier?.
To accept that as a fact is to accredit
you with authority ?uferlor. to that of
your party and it? leaders.
"You cannot seriously expect to be
so accredited.
"You owe it to the Republican party
and to the world to explain y?*jur as?
sumption of an authority that belongs
to your party leader?. By what right
de you make this assumption?
"Governor Clement, tell it all."
Army Planes Begin
9,000-M?e Flight
To Alaska To-day
Four U. S. Machines Will
Leave Mitchel Field at
10 a. m. for Nome, With
Capt. Street Commanding
The aerial expedition to Nome, Alas?
ka, and Teturn by four airplanes of
the United States Army Air Service,
will start from Mitchel Field, Mine?la,
L. I., at 10 o'clock this morning. The
flight is approximately 9,000 miles, and
is being made for the dual purpose) of
establishing an aerial route to the
northwest corner of the North Ameri?
can continent and also to make a photo
graphic surrey of the inaccessible
areas of Alaska.
The expedition will be in command
of Captain St. C&ir Street, who will
pilot airplane No. 1. With him will be
Sergeant Edmond Henriques, as ob?
server, photographer and mechanic.
The crews of airplanes 2, S and 4 will
be: Lieutenant Clifford C. Nutt, sec?
ond in command, with Second Lieuten?
ant Eric H. Nelson;. Second Lieutenant
C. H. Cumrine, photographic officer
and pilot and a mechanic, and Second
Lieutenant Rosa Kirkpatrick, with
Sergeant Joseph E. English.
Route of Flight
The route will be as follows: Mitchel
Field to Erie, 860 miles; Erie to Grand
BApids, ?900 miles-, Grand Rapids to
winona, Mich., $10 mil-es; Winona to
Fargo, N. D., 820 jniles; Fargo to Por?
tal, N. D., 290 miles; Portal to Saska?
toon, Sask, 280 miles; Saskatoon to
Edmonton, Alta, 800-miles; Edmonton
to Jaspar, Alta. 200 miles; Jasper to
Prince George, B. C, 200 miles; Prince
George to Hazeltoh, B. C, 220 miles;
Hazelton to. Wratigell, Alaska, 210
miles; Wrangell to White Horse, 800
miles; White Horse to Dawson, 250
miles; Dawson to Fairbanks, 276 miles;
Fairbanks to Ruby,'"240 miles; Ruby t?
Nome, 300 miles.
The greater part of the route will be
over Canadian territory, and most of it
in the Northwest will be over country
that has never beenflown over by man.
After reaching Nome the expedition
will make a flight of 100 miles to Cape
Prince of Wales, which is but ^fifty
miles from the continent of Asia.
The machines to be used in this ex?
pedition are DH-4Bs, the remodeled
form of the famous DH-4 type, devel?
oped for the army "air service toward
the close of the War. Each is equipped
with a 400-horsepower Liberty motor.
It is expected that the expedition
will demonstrate the possibility of
opening up aerial mail service between
the East and Alaska. At pr?sent mail
takes thirty days to come from Alaska,
but with airplanes this time could be
reduced to three ?days.
Each machine is equipped with con?
centrated food, arms, fishing tackle and
other equipment for w* in east of ?
forced landing. *

Big Business Is Moving Uptown
Banks, Bankers and Brokers, Accountants,Lawyers,Insurance
Companies, Industrial Concerns, and other large profes?
sional and corporate interests have emphasized the uptown
business movement by the establishment of main, or
?J branch offices in the Grand Central Termine Zone. This
district now is the very heart of the uptown business,
financial and transportation centre.
I his influx of new business population, added to the already
?great concentration of hotel; retail shopping, and other
interests in the Terminal zone, has created an unprece?
dented demand for stores and offices in and adjacent to
42nd Street, Fifth, Madison, Vanderbilt, and Park Avenues.
So insistent is the demand: that space now is at a premium,
with bonuses being paid for leases not yet expired.
the demand for space simply cannot be met at any price, and
several of the more prominent hotek in the 42nd Street
district usecently have bee4 acquired for conversion into
office buildings.
To meet this situation, the blocks between Madison and Park
Avenues, 46th and 47th Sts., are to be improved with one
of the largest office buildings in the? world, to be known as
the Park-Madison Building, and to be directly connected
with the Grand Central and subway stations.
The New Thirty*One Story
Park-Madison Building
will absolutely .dominate the uptown business centre. It
will be co-operatively owned and managed. It will be
erected, and held free and clear of real estate mortgage.
More Than One Million Square Feet of Office Space,
in unusually large and economical units of 10,000 to
60,000 sq. ft. per floor, will be provided, and can be pur
chased now from the floor plane.
A Surety Company Bondwillguarantee completionof building.
An amount of space will be reserved for renting, the revenue
from which., it is estimated, will be sufficient to pay all
operating expenses and leave a surplus, thus eliminating
future rental payments by stockholders.
NEW YORK is the financial cen?
tre of the country. Wall
Street, because of the location of the
Stock Exchange, is the financial
centre of New York. Because,
however, of the shortage of avail?
able office space, and the high cost
of renting in the Wall Street zone,
it has become necessary to establish
a new financial district uptown.
The heart and centre of this district
is the Terminal Zone, which has
great transportation advantages.
Office space, in and near the Ter?
minal Zone, at $4 to $7 per sq. ft.
is absorbed as rapidly as produced.
With bonuses being paid for leases
not yet expired, the demand is
far greater than the supply.
These are the conditions that have
led to the offering^ of more than
1,000,000 sq. ft. of office space in
the mortgage-free, Park-Madison
Building, on the tenant-ownership
plan.
Under the Mortgage-Free, Park
Madison plan of office ownership,
the cost df space to subscribers,
after charging 6% interest on the
investment, and 2% for amortization,
will be $1.68 to $2.24 per sq. ft.,
until the investment is amortized.
There will be no rent overhead
thereafter.
