CAUSE OF SUFFRAGE
Nominee Assures Women He
Will Aid in Fight.
WORD IS SENT MRS. CATT
Arrangements Arc Completed for
'olificallon Ceremonies at
Marion Tomorrow.
MARION. O.. July 21. Senator
Harding enlisted in the fight tor
woman suffrage tonight, declaring: on
the eve of his formal acceptance of
the republican nomination for presi
dent that he was ready to throw the
weight of his Influence for ratifica
tion in time for all women to vote
in November.
The announcement followed a call
by representatives of the National
American Woman Suffrage associa
tion, and took the form of a message
to Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, head
of the association, at Nashville, Tenn.
"1 am exceedingly glad to learn
the teleirram said, "that you are in
Tennessee seeking to consummate the
ratification of the equal suffrage
amendment. If any of the republi
can members of the Tennessee as
sembly should ask my opinion as to
their course, I would cordially rec
ommend an immediate favorable ac
tion."
March Stolen on Wonnl Party.
The association's representatives
stole a march on a delegation o the
national women's party who had
planned to enliven the formal notifi
cation ceremonies tomorrow by de
manding that the nominee urge re
publican legislators in Tennessee to
vote for ratification.
What action the women s party
crowa may iaKe w. un' i ' i. . n w
night, but their engagement to see
Senator Harding tomorrow stood.
Conferences between Senator Hard
ing and the party of women occupied
nnlv a few minutes and followed a
day given over largely to prepara
tions for the notification ceremonies
at which the nominee will deliver an
acceptance speech, interpreting' the
party platform and declaring his per
sonal stand on national issues.
His position on the league of na
tions was discussed by the candidate
at a conference with Senator Lodge of
Massachusetts, who will deliver- the
notification speech and who. as chair
man of the foreign relations commit
tee, led the senate fight against unre
served ratification of the treaty. It
was understood they went over thor
oughly the ground on which the
league battle is to be fought.
League Issue to Be Paramount.
The candidate is expected to lay
down a policy tomorrow contributing
to the paramouncy of the league is
sue in the campaign an helping to
clear the air for a finish fight be
' tween the two parties. His advisers
declared he will strike with all his
strength against the league as Presi
dent Wilson submitted it and will add
a constructive suggestion of what
ehould be done to obtain peace and
to maintain It.
It Is regarded as unlikely that the
nominee will enter into a detailed dis
cussion of the league covenant or
will speak objectively of reservations
or interpretations. He is expected
rather to hold his utterances to the
broad principles Involved, hinging his
argument to a plea for American
rather than world ideals.
He is believed, certain to couple
with this a declaration that the fail
ure of the United States to accept Mr.
Wilson's league will not be construed
abroad as an evasion of duty, but
will be interpreted as arising from
devotion to the integrity of the nation.
The acceptance, speech will be de
livered late in the afternoon. At 7
o'clock In the morning a local delega
tiou will march to Senator Harding's
residence and the candidate will offi
date at a flag-raising, hoisting the
Stars and Stripes on the flagpole re
cently transplanted to the Harding
lawn from the former residence of
William McKinley at Canton.
The nominee expects to make no
address, however, until the notifica
tion programme begins at a park in
the outskirts of the city at 2 P. M.
More than 30 special .trains are ex
pected during the day and many thou
sands will motor In from nearby
cities. Republicans and democrats
of Marion have joined hands to pro
vide entertainment.
Ifardlns'a Old Band to Attend.
Two of the delegations will be par
ticularly welcome. One will be the
resuscitated brass band from Cale
noma, in which senator Harding once
played a trombone, the other a group
of several hundred citizens of Day
ton, home town of the senator's dem
ocratlc opponent, James M. Cox.
The notification is to be held in i
Chautauqua pavilion, where seats
have been provided for about 4000
although more than ten times that
number are expected. Will H. Hays,
national chairman, will preside.
Bishop William F. Oldham, of the
Methodist Episcopal church, will de
liver the invocation and the Rev,
Father Joseph M. Dinning of St
Mary's Catholic church here, the ben
cdiction.
Among the telegrams he received
was one from Perley Christensen
nominee of the farmer-labor party for
president, requesting that he use his
influence for executive clemency fo
Kugene V. Debs, the socialist noml
nee, who is in the Atlanta penlten
tiary. Senator Harding said he would
reply after the notification ceremo
tiles were over.
The suffrage delegates who called
on the candidate tonight arrived un
expectedly and walked into Harding
headquarters just as the senator was
leaving for dinner. They were give
a hearing at once and a few minutes
later the message to Mrs. Catt was
made public.
Clarence Miller, secretary of the com
mittee, said: "The governor is only
trying to throw a little dust to cover
up his own campaign expenditures."
Committeemen and other republi
can leaders will go on a special train
to Marlon tomorrow to take part In
tne official notification of Senator
Harding, the republican nominee.
Tonight Harry M. Daugherty, Sen
ator Harding's pre-convention cam
paign manager, gave a dinner to mem
bers of the committee. Senator Lodge,
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt and others.
"There Is such a strong republican
drift everywhere in the country that
an aggressive campaign will be made.
even in some of the normal demo
cratic states. In the hope of captur
ing tnem also for Senator Hardinjr."
Mr. Hays declared following the meet
ing.
Mr. Hays voiced approval of Sena
tor Harding's "front porch" cam
paign, saying there would be no
change in the Senator's plans.
"However, it has always been un
derstood and is contemplated that
there may be speeches on nationally
important occasions at nationally im
portant places," said Mr. Hays.
"Neither lias there been, nor will there
be, any change in the financial policy
from that adopted in May last year."
Mr. Hays continued, explaining that
the policy was the decentralized plan
of soliciting small sums, none hlghet
than J1000, from as many of the rank
and file of the party as possible.
