New, Indiana, declared today in a statement issued by a republican na tional campaign purposes committee commenting on Associated Press dis patches from Tokio last night, sena tor New is a member ol tue lore iff n relations committee.

"The dispatch added that jV-oreign Minister Uchlda went to Odawara and conferred on the California question with Field Marshal Yamagata, su preme military councillor. That gives peace-loving Americans something to ponder over. Japan Made Paramount. "To Japan President Wilson has conceded & paramount position In Asia, by means of the L&nslng-Ishii agreement. To Japan be has given up the 'open door' obtained by John Hay for American trade in China. To J Ban be has given the Marianas and the Caroline islands in the Pa cific, to bar our way to our own pos sessions in the Philippines. To Japan be has yielded the Shantung province, with its 36,000,000 Chinamen. "In every way possible he has sur rendered our friend, the republic of China, to our antagonist, the empire of Japan. He has yielded American Interests, policies, commerce and safety as often as Japan has demand ed them. He has never secured in return a single concession from Japan. Jiew Sacrifices Held Asked. "As a consequence of this timid titi-American course, he is now being pressed for more sacrifices and sur renders of American interests. Japan finds him so willing to give away American interests that she is deter mined to get the pound of flesh, while the getting is good. "She demands now that he settle the California land question in her favor and guarantee her ajl rights and privileges of citizenship on the Pacific coast; and she demands this final sac rifice with vague threats of 'serious' complications if the sacrifice Is not made. "This is the danger that a 'supine land timid democratic policy has brought us to the danger of an 'open .conflict. That is the kind of peace that a democrat in the White House guarantees us with his International 'and un-American policies."

While on his way to a hospital in an automobile which had previously run him down and caused him painful in juries,. J j. m. White, aged 72, was hurled from the car when the driver lost control of the machine and al lowed it to run into a ditch and turn turtle. Nurses at the hospital said tonight that Mr. White's injuries were not serious and he would recover. Most of his injuries were sustained in the latter accident. to "react" from an era of executive usurpation and to re-establish order ly, constitutional government under "forward-looking progressive" poli cies. He sounded a warning against i "flood of imports from debtor coun tries," which he said might under mine Arrferican production by stimu lating a competition American indus try could not meet without tariff pro tection. "It is of the gravest national con cern," he continued, "that this changed international position shall not work to the injury of our Industrial and agricultural life. We are not pre pared to wipe from our books Europe's debts to us, but it would be incomparably better for our credits to remain uncollected and our bal ances to be waived than for liquida tion to take the form of an under mining flood of imports., that would cripple American industry, degrade American labor and weaken our whole economic fabric" Indnstrr Held Driftuic. Democratic negligence of domestic problems, the senator asserted, had left industry, commerce, labor and finance to "struggle and dTift" and find its way out of war conditions as best it could. He referred to the republican proposal made in the sen ate in September, 1918, to create joint congressional commission on re construction and continued: "Encountering favorable reception in congress from members of both parties, the proposal met prompt quietus in the president's blunt dis favor of any form of congressional advice or suggestion as to after-war policies. The result was that the signing of the armistice ushered in a veritable condition of 'save who can' in our economic life." Proper forehanded measures, said the candidate, might have facilitated the return of service men to their places in the nation's productive ma chijiery; relieved the menace of the housing shortage; eased the process of returning from price control to stable, free markets and established sounder principles of post-war flnanc ing. Senator Harding declared that the nation had sacrificed its opportunity upon the commercial seas early In Its history and had neglected its navy "until that great democrat, Grover Cleveland, gave us an awakening in his reverence for the Monroe doctrine which a present day democrat does not understand. "From such an invasion we have right to be saved.,, -Our new merchant marine will do much to avert it. Sup plemented now and whenever occa sion requires by a cautious revision of cur tariff,-the new shipping devel cpment will become a potent element in American economic growth. It would be an Intolerable thing if we stood by and beheld our enterprise impaired and our labor injured. If it be placed in responsible control in the November election the republican party solemnly engages that this shall nor come to pass. "The day and hour have arrived, he said, . "for operation and mainte nance of a great merchant marine, The merchant marine act of 1920, pre pared under republican leadership and passed by a republican congress, can be fairly described as one of the most important laws enacted in our gen eration. Bone "Reaction" Desired. Charges that the republican plat form is reactionary, -Senator Harding id, proceeded from "that reckless r.ess which is the excuse of loose thinking." 'It is true that in political affairs he continued, "we wiould 'react from r.n era of executive usurpation to th orderly form of constitutional gov eminent; that in industrial relation we would 'react' from an internation ali&t's obsession to European concern in our domestic problems and ou home tasks; that In social matters w would 'react' from a muddling of th public mind to an honest avowal c tacts and causes. But in all that makes for economic stability, for ternational justice, for social improve rnent, our faces are toward the mor row." Earlier Senator Harding had hi first experience with heckling, whe a man arose in the gallery and asked whether he had "scrapped the leagu of nations." The nominee's reply wa an unaccepted challenge to debate th league withhis interrogator and th crowd applauded. Tne senator was speaking of "one man government" when the interrup Uon came. "I want to ask," said the heckle "whether you have accepted the leagu and whether you stand for Senator Johnson in his position." Cries of "put htm out," mingled with oemands that the nominee answer th question, and Senator Harding raised ca, but for the remainder of the world as well. I shouldn't do that. 'I'm perfectly frank to say to you that I am without a single programme constructive in character about an ssociation of nations. I do know this one thing definitely, however: The democratic nominee for presi- ent says he's in avor of going into he league as it was fashioned at ersailles. I'm not in favor Tf going' into that league. When I'm elected resident the first thing I 11 do is o find a plan for an association of ations behind which all America will stand." The senator also departed from his prepared manuscript in his reference o President Wilson s failure to abro gate certain commercial treaties un-' er provisions of the new merchant marine act. "If I were president." he said, I would call congress together and tell the reasons which impelled me to fail to carry out the provisions of its legislation." COOLIDGE GREETS LODGEMES Cultivation of Charitable Spirit Held Greatest Seed. BOSTON, Sept. 27. Governor Cool- idge sounded a cail today for the limination from American public life f the spirit of vindictiveness which e said was all too prevalent. He was addressing the sovereign grand lodge. Independent Order of Oddfellows, in a formal welcome on the occasion of the opening of their nnual convention. There is nothing that this nation so needs today as the cultivation of a haritable spirit. we must. have done with intolerance and with selfish- ess." the governor said. "These are the bane alikte of public life and pri vate business. We need to substi- ute for that vindictive spirit that is all too prevalent in American public life the spirit of holy charity." He addressed a special greeting to Canadian members of the order Jn whose honor the convention had sung God Save the King," saying they were. Americans all, even to the lim its of the Arctic circle." Alfred S. Pinkerton, past grand Ire, in the opening -address, referred the birth of the Oddfellows order here 100 years ago, when the Massa chusetts lodge was formed in the old Bell-in-Hand tavern, four years be fore the national body came into be ing.

He urged members of the chamber to urge action by congress. T. 1 Stanley, secretary of the Klam ath Falls chamber of commerce, and H. O. Frobach, secretary of the Med ford chamber, were called upon to speak regarding the non-partisan league, and both urged that' a con structive rather than a vilification campaign be waged aginst the league in Oregon. Mr. Stanley was formerly a county agricultural agent in North Dakota and was state commissioner of lr.bor just prior to the non-partisan league regime, while Mr. Frobach had experience with the league in Mon tana. Both urged that Oregon citi zens take up the fight against the league. They advised, however, that the soundest way to fight the league is to study the farmers' needs and sttempt to help the farmers in a con structive way. Rev. C. P. Deems of San Francisco, assistant superintendent of the Amer ican Seamen's institute, spoke regard- ng plans of-the institute for provid ing home needs for the merchant sail ors. Portland, he pointed out. has not had a seamen's institute since the war. and the organization hopes to estab- sh itself here soon.
