a THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAy, rrTRA5TD, 'OCTOBER 17, 1020 HARDING ACCUSED OF 12 T Governor Cox Renews Attack on Republican Nominee. OHIO CAMPAIGN CLOSED Statement of Taft, Root and Others Said to, Be a Flag of Truce for Senator Harding CLEVELAND. Oct. 16. More charges against Senator Harding of Vacillation of the league "of somer saulting, wiggling and wobbling" were made by Governor Cox in a statement issued tonight and in five speeches closing bis three days Ohio Campaign. Senator Harding's address yester day at Indianapolis was the basis of Governor Cox's renewed assault. The governor declared it was the senator's twelfth "flop" on the league Issue and he - charged his opponent with "attempting to wiggle himself into the presidency." That the senator's Indianapolis speech was a plea- to league advo cates, after "rejection" of the league In his Dee Moines address, was as serted by Governor Cox, who pictured the senator as leaving "his dugout" and crying "kamerad, kamerad" to the ioi'ts of peace. - "A great principle has been vindi cated in the hearts of the American people," said the governor's state ment. "They are for the league of nations. Wiggling Called Pathetic "When, the senatorial oligarchy wrote the republican platform it was deliberately made meaningless and vague. It was the vehicle which was to enable the senatorial candidate to ride through the campaign assuming tne attitude of all things to all peo ple. To -Johnson followers- he said what they desired to hear; to the friends of Taft and Root and Wick crsham his speech was veiled Innu endo and implication. In the face of the greatest issue in all history it was unfortunate that a great political party did not take a more definite stand. It was pathetic to see its can didate attempting to wiggle himself into the presidency. "I was convinced, when I left the great western country, that a storm of protest and indignation was grow- lng. It is here, and Senator Harding Is helpless in No Man's Land, bereft of public confidence. Statement Called Trace. "Within a week Judge Taft sent forward a flag of truce from Van couver, stating his candidate had seen the light. Yesterday Judge Root and 30 associates in New York came forward with another flag of truce. This morning Senator Harding leaves the dugout and comes to the hosts of peace, with hts hands to high heaven, crying 'kamerad, kamerad." America has heard this cry before, and has found that it came from those who " could not be trusted, even after thV surrendered. Speaking plainly. Sec tor Harding deserves his presflit plight. No man, who in the midst of grave conditions exhibits only words, words and then more words, which 1 . mean nothing, deserves the con fidence of the people. S "I felicitate the friends of peace," .the governor" concluded. "The new order in the world is assured. It has been a great fight, not for the demo cratic party, but for humanity. The jury has the evidence and it calmly but happily awaits the hour to render the verdict." Governor ! Cheered, t Governor Cox's attack on his op ponent and his league preachments were cheered by all his audiences, es pecially an afternoon gathering of wo men here. At Elyria the governor, discussing jro-Germanlsm, declared "every moth er's son of the enemies of America during the war will vote for Senator Harding?." Questions Invited by the governor and asked by several, with women unusually prominent in the quizzing, drew amplified statements on Jap anese questions from the candidate. He stated his opinion that the Jap anese land dispute in California was "a California question. Women Appealed to "My Judgment is," he said, "that the federal government should accept the decision of California." Adding that the land and Japanese immigra tion questions were "internal af fairs." the governed- -laid that the league, with the Hitchcock reserva tions v.-ould have no jurisdiction over them. "When Japan is so greatly inter ested?" a woman asked. "Most certainly," he replied. "This Is a white man's country, not a yellow man's country." To his women audience Governor tox declared that througrh woman suffrage American women, cou.d "come to the front In time to save civilization of the world." EX-WIFE SUEDF0R $1500 Walter P.

Bulging Warehouses and Lack of - Markets for Wool Are Pointed to in Attack, on Wilson. LA GRANDE, Or, Oct. IS. (Spe cial.) Ths opening gun for the republican campaign in Union county was fired last night when Montaville Flowers of Los Angeles; Walter L. Toozo of Salem and Representative Sinnott. who happened into La Grande while on his way to Wallowa, spoke to a large crowd at the Methodist church. Mr. Flowers held the closest atten tion of the audience Tor two hours and a half, during which time he talked of government in general, of the league of nations and the tariffs which, during the present administra tion, have brought such hard times for the farmer, that at the present time in Union county, wool is stored in the warehouses, unable to find a market, while cattlemen are not able to sell their stock for what it cost to keep them through the winter.

NOTE THIS: To bako T" eas you must have a well-ventilated oven. To bake with wood and coal you MUST have an abso lutely tight oven. FURTHER, to have a purely venti lated oven when baking with gas, the ventilation holes MUST Ie in the top (look at any individual gas-range oven). Gas burns the oxygen out of the air. Steam and odors go up; if there are no ventilation holes in the top what is the result? Think it over! ments used by Mr. Flowers against the league of nations was that during the whole seven months that it was being composed, not one prayer was offered in its behalf because there were many gods represented. "If the Americans had offered prayer. It would not have satisfied the Japanese who worship Buddha nor the Moham medans, nor the many other religious people who have gods of their own. so not being able to pray without a row, the prayers were dispensed with. And yet. President Wilson asks this nation to ratify and become a party to an international agreement that was adopted at a conference where the name of the diety was not mentioned and no prayer was offered to the higher power than mere man." The . epeaker made the leagua proposition so clear that none failed to understand his message. 700 0 Members Red Cross Goal. SALEM. Or.. Oct. 16. (Special.)
