From West Virginia ; Tells
How He M?eets Problems
Assails Shipping Board
Promises to Reduce Cost of
Government as Means of
Lowering Living Expense
From a Staff Correspondent
MARION. Ohio. Sent. 24.?Next to the
League of Nations the most important
issue before the country is the high
cost of living, Senator Harding de?
clared in a speech from his porch to?
day. The Republican candidate spoke
to a delegation of 1,200 West Virginians
?who came here in .".40 flag bedecked
automobile.-?. It was the first time he
had discussed this question since his
speech of acceptance.
"I know it is in the American heart
to have somebody, somehow, say and
.??ay truthfully, that we are going to
modify the extraordinarily high cost
of living." the Senator said, and above
the applause sounded the voice of some
one shouting, "Right you are."
"I wish I could say something speci?
fic to you, my countrymen, on this
point." Senator Harding continued. "It
is very easy to stand before a company
of ones fellow countrymen and in?
veigh against the high cost of living,
and cry out against profiteering and
say wp mean to bring living costs
down. But I won't cheat my fellow
countrymen in order to wtn their favor
in this campaign."
The Senator told how he had delved
into this subject, how lie had ques
tioned hundreds of men in an effort to
learn one specific thing that could be
done to change the situation.
Individual Effort Required
"I know some means that may be
harmonized in bringing about a reduc?
tion in the cost of living, and I repeat
them to you: the first great contribu?
tion must be made by yourselves," he
continued.
"You cannot expect a reduction of
the cost of living under the natural
operations of business so lung as Amer?
ica continues to consume in the de?
lirium of war extravagance.
"I make it a practice in my own life,
if 1 find something more expensive than
I think 1 can afford to buy, to decline
to buy. And that is the one thin;; that
the American citizen can do to bring
the cost of living down somewhere to
a dependable figure once more. Next,
increased efficiency of production. You
cannot have high wages and reduced
cost of production unless you have bet?
ter efficiency accompany the high
wages, and 1 care not who may attempt
to challenge the statement.
In the next place, I want to preach
the gospel of thrift and economy. The
nation which will make the first recov?
ery from the waste and depression ol
the World War will be the nation that
lives thriftily and within its means.
preach the gospel of ?hrift for th?
United States.
"I do not mean that I advocate _
lower .standard of American living.
rejoice that America can live high
But America must live within hei
means."
Illustrating the economic condition?
that set wages mounting higher anc
higher during the war Senator Hard?
ing turned to America's shipbuilding
efforts, stating parenthetically that Ik
sometimes thought that if the Unitec
States had had a merchant marine
comparable with its navy Gcrmunj
never should have proposed the sub?
marine warfare that finally brought U!
into the war. He reviewed the pr?s
sure for speed and manpower an<
added:
"Under a very natural and unfailinj
law of life in the call for manpowe
we advanced compensation until to-da.
America is paying the highest wag'
kr.< wn anywhere in the world."
The Senator paused impressively
with uplifted hand. Then he said:
"I want that high wage to abide, tn;
countrymen. I have no hesilincy in
saying it. But I always accompany
the statment with one proviso;?that I
want the higher wage to aLide pro?
vided American workmen will give us
100 per cent efficiency for the wages
paid."
While he was on the subject of ship?
ping the Senator promfecd that if
elected one of his first considerations
would be the problem of taking the
12,000,000 tons of shipping built in the
war emergency and welding it into an
effective merchant marine.
In that connection he denounced the
United States Shipping Board as "one
continual fiasco from the beginning."
"I do not know," he said, "of a
single failure of the present Admin?
istration comparable to that of the
United States Shipping Board. It has
been one continual fiasco from the be?
ginning. When the war came to an
end, with the shipping at our com?
mand, we ought to have b?en in a po?
sition to establish immediately ship
lines to all parts of the world, but to?
day the Shipping Board is still in?
efficient and scarcely functioning. .In
this connection I want to promise you
that one ot the first acts of the in?
coming Administration will be to un?
furl the flag on all the paths of the
seas."
Promises to Cut Government Cost
As one means of lowering the cost
of living Senator Harding said he pro?
posed to lower the cost of government
and the news of his plan would proba?
bly carry consternation in the myriads
of war office buildings in Washington.
"1 promise you this day in all the
sincerity I know that when this enter?
prise succeeds, as 1 believe it will on
November 2, we are going to reduce
the cost of government, and a reduced
cost of government will make its very
notable contribution to a lowered cosf
of living," he said.
"Who pays the cost of government
anyhow? The American people pay
no ' matter through what individua
agency the tax check is sent. Here ?r?
the United States we have seen the coal
of government mount from approxi?
mately a billion dol?ais a year to mor?
than thirty billion dollars a year ir
the prosecution of the war. And th?
day will never pome, even with exact?
ing economy on a.'l hands, that the cost
of the Federal government will be lea:
than three billion dcl?a's a year; ant
even that figure isn't possible to the
Democratic party, more concerned witv
keeping its partisans in office thai
serving the welfare of the America!
people.
"When I am elected I promise yot
there are tjoing to be hundreds of thou
sands of Americans in Washington an<
elsewhere in the service of the govern
ment to i?o back home to take thei;
places in the activities of production."
I. S. .Markets for V. S. Products Firs
The Senator discussed the protectiv?
tariff as it applies to the peanut grow
ers of Virginia, the citrus fruit grower
of Southern California and the othe
producers of the United States. Ii
conclusion he s:iid :
"I cling to thy policy that propose
American markets for American pro
duction first, not in that narrow selfish
ness that some proclaim it to be, but t
fix a firm foundation for the good for
tunes of the people of the Unite
States on which we shall build th
ideal republic, and then exert our ir
fluonce throughout the world by th
force of American example. I do nc
think that :ill life is founded on mu
ter.al gain, but 1 do know that materii
_ain is? the ever-impelling inspiratioi
And I want the men and women c
America to have a fair chance for the:
material gain, and then in the efforl
of all we shall work out our highest a
tainment. I want the people of oi
land, under the guaranties of the Col
stitution. to work out their own de
tiny, and 1 want America to work oi
in her own way our relationships w-il
the world."
To Address Women October 1
The women voters of the nation a
getting considerable thought and a
tention at Harding headquarters.
was announced to-day that the Senate
would make one of the most importai
speeches of his campaign to a gathe
ing of women who are coming he
from all parts of th ecountry on Get
ber 1. The day will be marked
Marion by the closing of many fa
tories and stores in order that worn?
employees can go to the Harding por>
to hear this speech. It will be Soci
Justice Day in Marion, according
the headquarters announcement.
The Senator in this speech will pt
sent his views on questions connect
with health, sanitation, cducatic
women and children in industry a
kindred subjects. A committee, cc
sisting of Mrs. Mary Roberts Rineha
Mrs. Raymond Robins and Mrs. R>c
ard Edwards, is in charge of the ar?
rangements ?or the day.
Traveling salesmen from all parts of
the country will arrive in Marion to?
morrow morning. At least 3,000 are ex?
pected. Governor Cox is not popular
with drummers because of an editorial
published in The Dayton News in which
I the men of this craft were assailed as
I parasites. Chicago and New York are
! expected to send solid trainloads of
': traveling men. There are special cars
! coming from Indianapolis, Boston,
i Philadelphia, Detroit, Cleveland and
; Cincinnati.
Greeting to Salesmen's Club
Senator Harding sent the following
\ telegram to-day to the Harding-Coo
lidge Salesmen's Club of Delaware, in
convention at Wilmington:
"Please convey my greetings to the
Harding-Coolidge Salesmen's Club of
Delaware on the occasion of its meet?
ing September 25. We will be enter?
taining here in Marion some thousands
! of their fellows from all over the
(country on that day, and I wish your
I Delaware organization could be with
? us. The enthusiastic support our party
! and candidates have received from
i these evangels of business expansion
! has been one of the gratifying in?
cidents of the campaign. They are the
! men on whom we must largely rely
to bring in the orders that will keep
national business going and growing.
We want them at work all over the
world for American commercial ex- j
tension, and we propose that every
facility and protection that American
power and prestige can afford shall be '
accorde'd them."
Marshall Says Harding
Will" Use Article X
Suggests Senator, Though Re-1
jecting League, Would Employ
It for the Hague Tribunal
DECATUR, 111., Sept. 24.-Character- j
izing Article X as "the teeth of the j
League of Nations covenant," Vice- ?
President Thomas R. Marshall, in a j
speech here to-night, said he believes
Senator Harding's attitude is to reject :
the league, but to use the article for j
"teeth" in The Hague tribuna;. "Read-?
ing between the lines," he added, "the
world is to be governed by judges, and '
not by statesmen; by law, and not by
equity.
"Self-interest as well as dutv de-1
mands that some plan be devised and
tried to promote peace; to lessen, if
not wholly eradicate, the evils of war
and to conserve the resources of the i
world. ?I prefer the League of Nations i
without reservations, although the
.Democratic party's attitude is for the
league with reservations, if desired.
"The 'entangling alliances' charges of
the Republicans are familiar and in- ?
teresting," he continued. "President
Wilson did not put this country in ,
world politics. That honor belongs to
the Republican party, which was the ?
governing power when the ship of state
was turned from coastwise into trans?
marine traffic. It loaded Hawaii, Porto
Rico and the Philippine Islands, with
all their complications, upon us, and
called it 'benevolent assimilation.'
Their heads then were among the stars,
and not upon the Constitution of the
L'nited States.
"They still propose to be altruistic.
Don't forget that altruism in a Re- ?
publican is treason in Wooilrow Wil?
son."
Mrs. Boole Still in Race
Says Her opponents Would Not
Enforce the Law
Mrs. Ella A. Boole, Prohibition can?
didate for United States Senator, says
that the election either of Senator
Wadsworth or Lieutenant Governor
Harry C. Walker, her two opponents, '
would pave the way for a reign of law?
lessness.
"I am the only one of the three can-'
didates for the United States Senate,"
said Mrs. Boole yesterday, "who can
honestly lake the oath, if elected, to'
uphold the Constitution, because I am
opposed to nullification of part of the!
Constitution ? the eighteenth amend
ment?and I am for its enforcement.
Election of Senator Wadsworth or Lieu
tenant Governor Walker would give aid ;
and comfort to law violators and pave '
the way for a reign of lawlessness.
"I am still in the tight. Republi
cans. Democrats, Prohibitionists and
all independents who want to defeat
Senator Wadsworth will have an op- i
portunity of voting for me at the No- j
vember election."
Harding Tells Drys
His Vote in Senate
Explains His Stand
Nominee Replies to Query
From Anti-Saloon League,
Which Governor Cox So
Far Has Failed to Answer
From The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.?In reply?
ing to a telegram from the Anti-Saloon
League asking how he stands on the
question of a beer and wine amend?
ment to the prohibition act, Senator
Harding, the Republican candidate for
President, said that he stands by his
record vote on ilry issues in the Sen?
ate.
Governor Cox, the Democratic can- '?
didate, to whom u similar inquiry was j
made by the dry organization, has not
yet replied.
Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel
for the Anti-Saloon League, in r.iak- :
ing public the league's telegram to the
candidates and Senator Harding's re- ?
ply, said: i
"The league has submitted the rec- ;
ords and utterances of Governor Cox j
and Senator Harding to them for com- !
ment or criticism. Because one of
them was away from home and has ?
been delayed in answering, additional
time was granted by the committee be- j
fore publication.
"In addition, the national legislative \
conference, made up of twenty-three
national and prohibition organizations, j
sent telegrams to Governor Cox and I
Senator Harding asking for their at?
titude on this issue. Of course, both
candidates have announced that they
stand for the enforcement of law, but !
in view of the fact that a beer and I
wine amendment means nullification!
of the Eighteenth Amendment, we are !
interested in whether the candidates
favor the modification of the Volstea?! j
act proposed by the liquor interests
or whether they are willing to have it |
stand as it is, until it is given a fair!
trial. ' I
"The telegram to Senator Harding ;
said:
"'The undersigned committee is ap- i
pointed by the National Legislative
Conference, in session at Washington
this week, composed of twenty-three!
national temperance ami prohibition
organizations, representing many !
voters, to ask you respectfully the
following questions and to report your i
reply namely: Do you stand by your I
record as indicated by your vote on ''
the Eighteenth Amendment and on the
Volstead act for its enforcement?'
"In his reply Senator Harding said:
" 'Replying to your telegram, my
record stands, and I stand by it. I did
not know that there was any question <
about it.'
"Senator Harding voted to submit
the Eighteenth Amendment ami for
the Volstead act."
Prohibition Party Not
Satisfied.With Harding
?Nominee Soul He Would No!
Impose Hi* Will on Congress
in Considering Legislation
CHICAGO, Sept. 24.?-Senator Har?
ding's position on the prohibition ques?
tion is not satisfactory to the Prohibi?
tion party and negotiations between it
and Republican leaders which might
have led to the withdrawal of Aaron S.
Watkins as a Presidential candidate
have been broken ofT. according to a
statement issued to-night by the Pro?
hibition National Committee.
The committee made public a letter
from George Christian jr.. Senator Har?
ding's secretary' to Mrs. Elsie Giles, a
Prohibitionist, of Redlands. Calif., out?
lining the Senator's position. It said
Poll Assures Harding
353 Electoral Votes
From a Staff Correspondent
MARION, Ohio, Sept. 24.?
Senator Harding will carry
states that will give him 353
electoral votes (only 266 are
necessary to elect), judging from
the returns of a single day's
straw vote in 8,000 Rexall drug
stores in all parts of the country.
They are ' in every state and in
every considerable town.
Four years ago a similar straw
vote was the basis of an accurate
prediction that Wilson would
carry California and New Hamp?
shire, which he did. This year's
poll shows a total of 103,624
votes. According to these figures,
Harding will carry every North- ?
ern, Western and Middle and i
Southwestern state, except New
Mexico.
that if Senator Harding is elected and :
the Volstead act repealed, he would "act
in accordance with hi? best judgment, j
Rut would not, as President, im
pose his will on Congress In considera- '
tion of this or any other legislation."
The statement said that after the Pro- !
hibition party offered its support to the
candidate who would pledge himself
against weakening of the Volstead act,
neither Senator Harding nor Governor ,
Cox replied personally, but Republican '?
leaders opened negotiations with the i
Prohibitionists. The letter from Mr. .
Christian, however, has put an end to j
these negotiations, according to the
statement.
Three Ousted Socialists
Honor Guests at Dinner
Two Who Resigned and Leader
tlillquit Also Attend Rally
in Yorkville Casino
More than 800 Socialists assembled
at dinner in the Yorkville Casino, 210
Last Eighty-sixth Street, last night, I
to honor the three ousted Socialist I
Assemblymen and Samuel A. Dewitt
and Samuel Orr, their colleagues, who
resigned their seats in protest. The I
dinner also served as a welcome home
feast for Morris [lillquit, leader of the
Socialist Party, who recently returned
from the Adirondacks, where he fought
for many months to regain his health.
Mr. Hillc.uit headed the list of speak?
ers. He was loudly cheered on enter- '.
ing the hall, the assembly rising to its
feet. Others who spoke were Louis i
Waldman, Charles Solomon and August
Claessens, the ousted Assemblymen; !
Orr and Dewitt, Abraham Cahan, editor i
of The Jewish Daily Forward; Alger?
non Lee, Alderman B. Charney Vladeck,
Norman Thomas, Theresa Malkiel and
S. John Block, state chairman of the
Socialist Party.
All the speakers predicted the ousted
Socialist Assemblymen and their two
fellow members would be re?lected with
increased majorities an?! that the So?
cialist delegation at Albany would be
re?lected in the November elections.
Mrs. Malkiel declared that the Albany
ouster would serve to boost the So?
cialist vote at the Presidential election,
saying that Eugene V. Debs, the party's
candidate, would poll 4,000,000 votes.
Joseph D. Cannon, Socialist candidate
for Governor, presided.
Following the dinner the ousted As?
semblymen addressed open air meet?
ings at Eighty-sixth Street and Third
Avenue and 110th Street and Fifth
Avenue. Fully 5,000 persons attended
each meeting.
?Wilson Defies I
Congress on
Shipping Act
?>
I (Continued from pa}? one)
point made by the President that Con
i gross had exceeded its powers, called
| attention to the veto by President
Hayes of an act passed by CongTess in
1879, which required the President to
give notice to China of the abrogation
of Articles 5 and 6 of the Burlingame
treaty. President Hayes declared that
'the power of making new treaties or
of modifying existing treaties is not
lodged by the Constitution in Con?
gress, but in the President, by and
with the advice and consent of the
Senate, as shown by the concurrence
of two-thirds of that body.' On this
subject, as well as the effect of an
attempted partial abrogation of a
treaty, as contemplated by the recent
act, the words of President Hayes are
significant. Said he:
Ruling of Presiden?! Hayes
" 'As the power of modifying an ex?
isting treaty, whether by adding or
striking out provisions, is a part of
the treaty-making power under the
Constitution, its exercise is not com?
petent for Congress, nor would the
assent of China to this partial abroga?
tion of the treaty make the action of
Congress in thus procuring an amend?
ment of a treaty a competent exercise
of authority under the Constitution.
The importance, however, of this spe- !
cial consideration seems superseded by
the principle that a denunciation of a
part of a treaty, not made by the
terms o? ,the treaty itself separable
from th?B rest, is a denunciation of the
Whole treaty. As the other high con?
tracting party has entered into no
treaty obligations except such as in?
clude the part denounced, the denun?
ciation by one party of the part neces?
sarily liberate-, the other party from
the whole treaty.'
"The merchant marine act was ap?
proved .Tune 5, in the final rush of the
session's close, with no opportunity to
suggest, much less secure its revision
in any particular. To have vetoed the
act would have sacrificed the great
numbers of sound and enlightened
provisions which it undoubtedly con?
tains. Furthermore, the fact that one
section of the law involved elements of
illegality rendering the section inopera?
tive need not affect the validity and
operation of the act as a whole."
Not Based on Foreign Protests
The President's decision to refuse to
obey the edict of Congress, it was said
at the State Department, had been
reached after the legal phases of the
situation had been fully presented to
him. It was said that the protests of
foreign governments against the dis?
criminatory paragraphs of the legisla?
tion were not considered in reaching
the decision to refuse compliance with
the act of Congress, and that the Presi?
dent's action was soleiy on the ques?
tion of the constitutionality of the act.
The President's action affects only
that part of the legislation which con?
cerns the validity of commercial
treaties. It was pointed out at the
State Department that to carry out the
instructions of the legislation numer
j ous treaties would have had to be ab?
rogated in their entirety, because of
I the inclusion in them of some sections
| conflicting with the provisions of the
marine act.
i The extent to which the government
i would have been compelled to cancel
i treaties was evidenced by a lar_e chart
showing the number of treaties and
the provisions of each with which the
shipping act was in conflict. In de?
scribing the President's inability to
1 comply with the act the treaty with
China' was cited. The pact contains
some twenty sections, most of which
were to safeguard American nationals
in that country. No provision in this
or other treaties gives the United
States the right to cancel a part of it,
Secretary Colby pointed out, in ex?
plaining that partial abrogation of a
treaty was impossible.

Walsh Says Jurists Borrowed
World Court Plan of League
CHICAGO, Sept. 24.?Following up
his recent attack on Senator Harding's
contention that the covenant of the
League of Nations is in conflict with
the Constitution of the United States,
Senator Thomas J. Walsh, of Montana,
to-day attacked the Republican claim
that the world court, proposed by Sen?
ator Harding, would take the place of
the league.
Senator Walsh said the world court is
provided for by the covenant and that
the commission of which Elihu Root
was a member and which formulated a
plan for the court 'borrowed not; only
the ideas but the very language of the
covenant.''
Automobile Kills Boy as He
Plays in Street Near His Home
Pedh Jackin. thirteen years, ?of 246
East 112th Street, was killed shortly
before 10 o'clock last night when an
automobile, operated by Charles Sond
heimer, of 50,'. Green Street, Troy, N.
Y., ran him down almost directly in
front of his home. The boy was play?
ing in the street at the time.
Sondheimer picked up the boy and
rushed him to Sydenham Hospital,
where Dr. Posner, of Harlem Hospital,
attended him. Later he was taken to
Harlem Hospital, where he died.
Patrolman Sullivan, of the East
101th Street station, arrested Sond?
heimer and he will be arraigned to?
day in the Washington Heights Court
on a charge of homicide.
Cox Charges Hays
With "Poisoning"
West Against Him
Tells Colorado Audiences
Republican Chairman Is
Like 'Sneaking Guerrilla'
in His Campaign Methods
DENVER, Sept 24?Attacks upon
Chairman Will H. Hays and Republi?
can newspapers charged with "a con?
spiracy of silence" against the Demo?
cratic cause featured to-day's Colorado
campaign of Governor James M. Cox.
He spoke at Trinidad, Pueblo and at
the auditorium here.
"Poisoning" was the term applied
by Governor Cox in his charges r;-gard
ing the newspapers, and he likened
Ch?irmaa Hays to "the sneaking gi__r.
rila who in days of old poisoned wells
for the destruction of enemies."
Mr. Hays, the candidate declared
sent an advance agent to confer with
Colorado editors as well 'as to New
Mexico to plan the alleged undermin?
ing of the Democratic campaign.
Last Monday at Denver, Governor
Cox asserted in his Pueblo speech, ed
?tors of Colorado Republican news?
papers assembled for a conference with
a Mr. Stephens, said to have been an
agent of Chairman Hays.
"The editors were asked to divert th?
public mind from the league and other
paramount issues," said the Governor,
"to. minor affairs. They were told to
ask questions thought to be embarrass?
ing and to give unfavorable reports on
my receptions.
"The Republican National Committee
is maintaining a large organization for
this purpose," the Governor said. "It
has men traveling all over the country,
and the funds of the Republican or?
ganization are being used to make this
kind of a campaign at a time when
humanity is to pass on the great ques
? tions involving more interests and more
people than at any time in the history
of the world.
"The rich men of America, who are
living in comfort," the Governor con?
tinued, reiterating charges of "big
business" contributions to the Repub?
licans, "certainly ought to be proud of
the fact that they have made it possi?
ble for Hays to conduct this kinu oi a
campaign. The reason is that it i.?
apparent to-any unprejudiced per?on?
that the West is overwhelmingly for
the League of Nations and that the
majority of the West will so record
themselves."
