Coolidge Wants ?U. S. Free to I jd? Humanity Uec?ares Repobliean Policy Is Based on Service to Hankind in Response to ?the National Conscience p-ryors World Court ' TeD? Maine Voters Cox I Follows Wilson in Refus* ?Jug to Safeguard Nation I fOBTLANDf M?b., Sept 8.?The aa I-jrtioa that the Republican party cttsdc for a foreign policy based upon M j^eegnltlon of the fact that the United States is not isolated was made lure to-night In an address by Gor? ier Calvin Coolidge of Massachu M?S. ?? *S*** since thi8 r-at'on was estab faaed, ever since it adopted as its l-<iablem the splendor of the rising ?jwra," Governor Coolidge said, "it has Iwtttt been isolated. All the earth ht? tamed to that vision of hope. Not ' tsslated, but independent, free, rcnder "?i^service to all mankind not on com ???Jjionl but in response to the na wBatti conscience. The Republican ?arty resents the imputation that it leeks to do any less than render that service now. By its history, by its ?platform, by the solemn assurances of iU candidate, it completely refutes aaieharge." Sees Hope in World Court T believe humanity would welcome tke creation of an international asso? ciation for conference," he added, "and a world court, whose verdicts upon joaticiabie questions this country in esnmon with all nations would be willing and able to uphold. The deci ijon of this court or the recommenda tions of such a conference could be twepted without sacrificing on oui fart or asking any other power to sac rJBee one iota of its nationality." The address was delivered at a rails held in connection with the state cam psign for the election of state officers and Comgressmen next Monday. Mrs Corinne Roosevelt Robinson of Nev fork siso spoke. Discussing the refusal of the Unitec States Senate to ratify the peace treatj with the covenant of the League of Na? tions, as submitted by the President Governor Coolidge said: Objections to Ratification "If this represents the history ol ?Mr country and the desire of th< Sapublican party, what was the ob jeetioa then to ratifying the Leagut of Nations in the form in which i ?aas submitted by the President to th? Senate? Th,s is a candid inquiry am tieserves a tendid r.nswer. In general tie objection was the reluctance t incur either l??al or moral obligation binding our goverment to act in ac terdance with decisions not made b; itoelf. It wa3 the desire to retain un impaired the traditional policies, lik tie Monro. Doctrine, and the in dependence of action of America. .^This patriotic desire was not con ftied to the members of any one part; bat was cherished by men in bot parties. The specific nature of thes objections is best stated by a referenc t? some of the reservations adopte m the Senate, where all but six Sen atora voted for at least one reserva tien. "First?It adopted a reservation tha ?rovided that in case of notice of witr drawal f-om the League of Nation tte United States shall be the sol Judge as to whether all its internt feonal obligations and all its oblig? tiens under the said covenant hav b*en fulfilled, and that notice of witr ?ftwai by the United States *iay \ jwen by a concurrent resolut'on of tr, vtogress of the United States.

This doctrine is to be interpreted by the United States alone and is declared to be wholly outside the jurisdiction of the League of Nations. "The President would leave the League to settle it.' Governor Cox says .'I am in favor of going in'?with? out it. "Sixth?The United States withholds its assent to the disposition of Shan? tung and reserves full liberty of action with respect to any controversy which may arise in connection therewith. "The President says that this nulli? fies the league. Governor Cox says 'I am in favor of going in*?without any protest against the violation of Shan? tung. "Seventh?The United States shall not be, obligated to contribute to any expenses of the League of Nations un? less an appropriation of funds for such expenses shall have been made by the Congress of the United States. "This nullifies the treaty, says the President. Governor Cox says 'go in' without it. Would Reserve 'Armament Rights "Eighth?The United* States reserves the right to increase armaments with? out the consent of the League of Na? tions whenever the United States is threatened with invasion or engaged in war. "The President refuses to accept this reservation on which the life of the nation may depend. Governor Cox says, 'I am in favor of going in'? without it. "Ninth?Nothing in any article of the treaty shall be taken to mean any con? firmation,-ratification or approval "of any act otherwise illegal or in contra? vention of the rights of citizens of the United States. "This is a nullifying reservation, says the President. Governor Cox says 'go in' without it. "Tenth?The United States assumes I no obligation to be bound by any action \ of the council or assembly in which any member of the league and its self governing dominions and colonies cast in the aggregate more than one vote. 0 Six to One, Says Cox "No, says the President, this nulli? fies the treaty. 'Go in,' at six to one, says Governor Cox. "These represented an attempt to Americanize the league. They repre? sent in part what Senators of both parties believed necessary to protect American interests. "Now what is the affirmative record and policy of the Republica-n party? Wo have always been a party not of '. negation but of construction. We shall not change now. "In the first place the dominant por- : tion of the Republican Senators twice voted to ratify the league with reser vations. The President twice refused i to permit such ratification. "In the second place the Republican I Convention at Chicago, after approving this conduct of the Senators, makes this specific covenant with the Amer ican people. 'And we pledge the com-? ing Republican administration to such agreement with the other nations of the world as shall meet the full duty of America to civilization and human? ity, in accordance with American ideals, and without surrendering the right' of the American people to exer? cise its judgment and its power in favor of justice and peace.' Harding to Fulfill Pledge "In the third place, Senator Harding in his speech of acceptance made two declarations to cover this pledge. In one he declared: 'I can speak unre? servedly of the American aspirations ! and the Republican committal for an association of nations, cooperating in sublime accord, to attain and preserve peace through justice rather than force, i determined to add to security through international law so clarified that no misconstruction can be possible with- ; out affronting world honor.' In the other he states his purpose: 'With a ; Senate advising, as the Constitution contemplates, I would hopefully ap? proach the nations of Europe and of the earth, proposing that understand? ing which make3 us a willing partici? pant in the consecration of nations to a new relationship, to commit the moral forces of the world, America included, to peace and international justice, still leaving America free, in? dependent and ??elf-reliant, but offering friendship to all the world.'

Senator Harding became more specific in his policy. After declaring that he is not in favor of going into the league On the Democratic basis, and after dis? cussing the league and the Hague tribunal, he rests on this broad pro? posal: '1 would go even further. I would take and combine all that is ood and excise all that is bad from oth organizations.' "This statement is broad enough to include the suggestion that if the league has been so entwined and inter? woven into the peace of Europe that its good must be preserved to stabilize the eace of the continent, then it can e amended or revised so that we may still have a remnant of world aspira? tions in 1918 builded into the world's highest conception of helpful co? operation in the ultimate realization. National Honor With Peace "'I believe humanity would welcome, the creation of an international asso? ciation for conference and a world court whose verdicts upon justiciable questions this country, in common with all nations, would be both willing and able to uphold. The decision of such a court or the recommendations of such a conference could be accepted without sacrificing on our part or ask? ing any other power to sacrifice one iota of its nationality.' "What American could say more? "A world relationship exists. It is. It did not come into being as the result of any proposed treaty; it will not be changed by any 'great and solemn ref? erendum.' The course of wise and true statesmanship is to seek out, to dis? cover what that relationship is and put the action of the nations in harmony with it. This Senator Harding is pro? posing to do. That relationship is not founded on a major force. Prussia made that mistake. It is founded on a compelling reason. Its herald is not a clanking sabre hut the still, small voice. To the establishment of that re? lationship through the recognition of reciprocal rights and duties the Repub? lican party, by its history, by its pol? icy, by its candidate, stands pledged. This is the way with national honor, with independence, to a world peace. In that direction Senator Harding ieads. Mrs. Robinson Assails Cox Mrs. Robinson, in her address, told what her brother, former President Roosevelt, if living, would stand for. She handled Governor Cox and Frank? lin D. Rooveselt without gloves on ac? count of the way they have been tell? ing audiences that Colonel Roosevelt would not, if living', stand for the Re? publican candidates. Mrs. Robinson said that nothing thrilled her like being introduced as the sister of her great brother. '"Every eye in the United States will be fixed on the returns from Maine next Tuesday morning," she said. 'Don't disappoint them. "There is nothing under the sun that my brother would hate so much as to ?see his former Progressive associates vote the Democratic ticket, despite what Governor Cox and my kinsmen nave been telling their audiences. "While Wilson and Baker were re? fusing to let my brother assist France in the war Senator Harding was intro? ducing resolutions in the Senate to let my brother go." Referring to Governor Cox's reflec? tions on William Barnes, of Albany, Mrs. Robinson said: "True, my brother did not like Bill Barnes, of Albany, but he loved even Bill Barnes as compared with his feel? ing concerning Woodrow Wilson." Mrs. Robinson said that most of the reservations advocated by the Republi? can Senators were originally discussed and analyized at Colonel Roosevelt's bedside in a New York hospital by the Colonel and Senator Lodge. Leaders Find LWest Is Tired O? Democrats Borah and Poindexter Say Sentiment Is Favorable to Republicans and Opposed to League as It Stands Cox Arouses Indignation Candidate's Assertion That He Will Carry on Policy of Wilson Regime Resented From The Tribune's Washington Bureau WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.-Senators Borah, of Idaho, and Poindexter, of Washington, Republicans, who have re? turned here from trips through the West, said to-day that sentiment in that territory was favorable to the Re? publican ticket. The Senators said the Westerners were tired of the Democratic Adminis? tration and did not want the League of Nations as it stands. Both Senators are preparing to take an active part in the campaign. Mr. Poindexter, who is chairman of the Senatorial committee, will visit many states to help to elect a Republican Congress. Mr. Borah is waiting for the completion of his itinerary. Discussing reasons for the trend of sentiment in the West toward the Re? publicans, Senator Poindexter said: "Is it based on- the fact that the great mass of the people, regardless of party, in that section of the country, are not only tired of the Democratic Administration, but are indignant at the Democratic candidate, Mr. Cox, or. account of his assertion that he will carry out the policies of the Wilson r?gime? We are tired of the war and want peace. Democrats Arouse Indignation "We feel that it is an outrage, and this is not too strong a word to use in describing it, that the Democratic party is attempting to blackmail the ? nation into an acceptance of an inter? national government of our foreign affairs by the threat to keep us in a state of war until President Wilson's covenant and constitution of world gov eminent is r.dopted. "We want to get back to normal con? ditions of business, of industry, of foreign commerce. This is impossible i so long as our international relations are suspended in the nebulous schemes of President Wilson, now adopted by I Governor Cox, leaving it without any definite basis for the conduct of our affairs. "Our people do not propose to keep an army perpetually in Europe or to be a party to every ^European war, regard? less of whether we are nationally inter? ested in it or not. "We know, furthermore, that the effort of Governor Cox and President Wilson to have the United States to subject itself to a world government under the constitution brought back by I President Wilson is a part of the plan to pool the war debts -of Europe, in cluiding those of Germany, in which the United States would be the chief sol? vent debtor. "Wo feel that the $38,000,000,000 which we spent in the war was really a sufficient contribution. "We have earned, or rather our an? cestors have, in many bitter struggle, the present good fortune which we as a nation enjoy, and we regard as an affront and as an unspeakable danger the proposal of the Democratic party to surrender these separate and spe? cial fortunes and,- to nse the words of the President, 'join them with the for? tunes of men everywhere.' Many People Deceivedl "The President has said that he was responding to voices from above, and that he was following a light shining upon the path ahead, and many people have been deluded into the belief, by this sort of assertion, that he was in? spired, and have been carried away to follow him in th'e strange business of giving up American sovereignty to be? come a part of an international gov? ernment. "This attitude has deceived not only many of our own people but many sub? ject foreign nations, who have looked upon him as a deliverer from all of their troubles. Of course, it was but an illusion and has led to endless misery and world disturbance." Senator Borah believes the "slush fund" charges of Governor Cox have made but little impression and shares Senator Poindexter's opinions. "The situation in Idaho, from a Re? publican standpoint, is good," he said. "In fact, the trend in the West is to the Republican party. The people are dissatisfied with the present Adminis? tration and they want a change. High taxes, high prices and the high railroad rates?recently increased?all contrib? ute to the feeling of dissatisfaction." Sperry Hotly Assails Senator Wadsworth An attack on Senator Wadsworth was launched last night by Marvin Gates Sperry, president of the Private Soldiers and Sailors Legion, because of the Senator's attitude toward the men who fought over seas. "The enlisted men of all the states look to the soldiers and sailors and their friends in New York State to see to it by their votes that this reac? tionary, obstructionist, corporation Senator does not get back to the Sen? ate to work further harm to the rights and interests of the men whose serv? ices to their country have earned for them that recognition and justice which Senator Wadsworth has done his worst to deny them," said Mr. Sperry. "The ex-service men have a good rea? son to defeat Senator Wadsworth be? cause he stood in the way and misused his power to defeat attempts to reform the obsolete courts-martial system under which hundreds of thousands of private soldiers suf? fered great wrongs^ And he also op? posed the bonus legislation which was intended to do some scant measure of justice to the private soldier." Mr. Sperry is supporting George Henry Payne for the nomination for United States Senator against Senator Wadsworth.

Thompson, of Niagara, who is opposing Nathan L. Miller for the Republican nomination for Governor, joined forces yesterday with former Senator William M.

Last night the two candidates ad? dressed several gatherings of Repub? licans, the biggest being held at Trom mer's Gardens, Brooglyn, under the auspices of the Kings County Repub? lican Club. Both men attacked their opponents in the Republican primaries and alsc paid their respects to Senator James W.

Say ?Upstate Is Incensed Senator Thompson, who had just re turned from a three weeks' campaigi trip upstate, where he apoke in forty seven counties, told his audiences tha the upstate Republicans were incensec at the action of the unofficial conven tion at Saratoga. "The people upstate," he said, "ar utterly disgusted with the attempt o a few senile Republican leaders, unde the hypnotic control of Messrs.

Theodore Douglas Robinsor nephew of Theodore Roosevelt and foi mer chairman of the Progressive Stat Committee, said that, 'after vainl attempting to instill a little life int the Barnes-Wadsworth-Glynn-Wilkir son machine, the only chance a youn Republican has with the gang is to di; guise himself as a tottering, toothles old dotard.' Attacks Wadsworth "The people are aroused," he contii ued, "over the attempt of this combir to force Miller and Wadsworth dow their throats, with all that these tw gentlemen stand for.
