MARION. O.. Aub. Senator Hard
ing today received another string of
visitors, swept through a bale of cor
respondence, disposed of a miscellany
of details at headquarters, and then
took a 60-mile automobile ride.
One of his odd jobs was to make
five campaign speeches. His only
audience was the operator of a re
cording apparatus for phonograph
records, and the speeches all were
excerpts from this previous public
dellveranoes. The records are. to be
distributed by the republican na
tional committee as a means of car

big delegations to come from outside
Ohio for a front porch speech would
be from Indianapolis on August 2.
Other callers Included J. 11. MeCarl
of Nebraska, executive secretary of
the national republican congressional
committee, who reported on the prog
ress of the congressional campaign.
A sharp reply was made to reports
quoted last night in a statement by
Harding lieaclquarters regarding or
ganization of a Marlon delegation to
the notification of Governor Cox at
Dayton. Newspaper stories were
quoted as charging that the delega
tion was being padded from neighbor
ing towns and free transportation was
being offered. In response the Marl

lished a statement today saying:
"One hundred dollars reward will
be paid anyone furnishing proof tljat
any person connected with the demo
cratic national, state or county com
mittee, or the committee named to
arrange for a special train to Dayton
has given or offered free transporta
tion to any member of the delegation

"There is not a man or woman in
the Marion delegation who is not a
resident of Marlon county."

The entire situation was reviewed
and the government's view communU
cated to the Russians. Especial em-.
phasis was laid on the necessity for
stemming the advance of the red
army into Poland proper. As a result
of the conference, M. Kameneff will
be In a position to communicate with
Moscow and get the soviet govern
ment's answer by Sunday, when It can
be considered by the allied confer
ences and decisions taken which will
be communicated to the bouse of

It is believed that If France la will

to peace being negotiated directly be

erally granted that, in accordance
with the practice of previous wars,

signed. The Polish delegates to the

to arrive in Minsk today and begin

IICSSIANS WANT GUARANTEES

sion of ethnological Poland by the

Reds Demand Gssraateei,
Of guarantees desired M. Karoieneff
says: -
"The history of the Polish attack
upon Kussia, the patent facts of sys
tematic and uninterrupted assistance
to Poland on the part of France and
the presence on the right wing of the
Polish army of the troops of General
Wrangel, who also is supported by
the French government, render It
matter of necessity for the soviet gov
ernment to demand the inclusion In
the terms o f the armistioe with Po
land of such reasonable guarantees
as would prevent all attempts on the
part of Poland to use the armistice
period for the renewal of hostile acts
aguinst' Russia."
M. Kamineff" states that it was the
absence of power to deal with such
questions that led to the soviet ask-
ng the Polish delegates to obtain an
rxtftnsion of their powers.'
The soviet delegates proposed that
jjvireless be used and the negotiations
ior an armistice be berun as soon as
Warsaw replied that a courier had
left there with new credentials M.
Kamieneff says. He adds that the
Polish delegates declined and re
turned to Warsaw. M. Kamieneff con
tinues: Poles' Faith Questioned.

from the conduct of the Polish dele
gates who preferred to return to War-
sow .that the Polish government Is

to estimates made here today by mili

Inadequate transportation, facilities
and the long distance between the

of these abundant munitions reserves.
Besides the material taken over

Delay in Armistice Negotiations
With Poland Explained.
LONDO"?, Aug. Leo Kamieneff
of the Russian soviet delegation here
sent Premier Lloyd George last night
a long communication giving the
soviet government's reply to Great
Britain's note of Tuesday with regard
to the delay in the armistice negotia
tions between Russia and Poland.
M. Kamieneff's statement declares
the soviet government never desired
to combine the negotiations for an
armistico with negotiations for peace,
but that it demands that the terms of
the armistice include reasonable
guaranees which would prevent at
tempts on the part of Poland to use
the period of the armistice for the re
newal of hostile acts.
The sole obstacle in the way of the
beginning of negotiations for the sus
pension of military operations, says
the note, is the absence of the Polish
delegates, whose return is being
awaited by the representatives of the
soviet government in order that nego
tiations may be immediately opened.
Good Faith Asserted.
The note continues:
'"The Russian soviet government
again declares that it is firm in the
recognition of the freedom and inde
pendence of Poland and ts willing
ness to grant to the Polish state
wider frontiers than were indicated
by the supreme council and men
tloned in the British note of July 20.'
With regard to the proposed Lon
don peace conference, the note says
in substance that the soviet govern
ment had proposed that the confer
ence be only with the leading powers
of the entente because the usefulness
of such a conference arose from the
fact that without the assistance of
the leading powers war could not be
waged by other states against Rus
sia. and so the peace of Kurope would
be guaranteed.
The Kamieneff statement continues
"We are still of the opinion that di
rect negotiations with Poland for
peace would serve the interest both
of the Russian and Polish peoples
Russia's Aim Declared.
The conference in London between
, Russia and the leading powers of the
entente, says the communication;
would have for its object the definl-
. tion of the international position of
Russia and the settlement of all out
. ' standing questions between her. and-
the allies, for the benefit of general
peace.
The guarantees the soviet desires
that Poland will not use the armistice
period for a renewal of police, it is
set forth, include her partial disarma
ment and cessation of the recruiting
of conscript soldiers as well as vol
' untary enrollments
M. Kamieneff also refers to his in
' terview with Premier Lloyd George
and states that he forwarded to the
soviet . government the premier's
statement. with regard to the -de
cision of the British government to
side with Poland and to renew the

Clash Is Described. "
"Guards in the car barns had been
instructed to keep the streets clear.
The erowd surged beyond- the lines
last night. A car loaded with
strikebreakers tried to come to the
barns. Close to the barns it was in

Henry Silberg, president of the

order to prevent further bloodshed.
Bloodshed Is Not Wanted.
"We do this solely that there may

OREGONIAS NEWS BUREAU.
Washington,-Aug- S,-More bad news
for the plumb Plan league, the non
partisan league and other varieties
of radicals filtered into Washington
today. This time it came from Ten.
nessee and told of the politioul demise
of a here of the revolutionary eause.
This hero was ' Representative
Thetus W. Sims of Tennessee, who In
the last congress made himself tne
foster-parent of the Plumb Plan rail
road bill. Dispatches from Tennessee
today tell ef Sims' defeat for re-norn-
instion by approximately ooo votes.
Sims, who is new serving his
twelfth term in congress, was chair
man of the house Interstate and for
eign commerce committee during the
last year and a half of democratic
control of congress, succeeding to
that post upon the elevation of Re
presentative Adamson, of Adamson
law 'fame, to the federal bench,
Plumb Plan Championed.
For years Mr. Sims, as a member of
the Interstate and foreign commerce
committee, had been known as a
statesman of rather conservative
ideas on railroad legislation, but sud
denly, during the hearings on the
new railroad bill a year ago, came
out as the champion of the Plumb
Plan league. He introduced in the
house the bill drafted by Glenn E.
Plumb and while it was useless to
undertake to put that measure
through oongress, he led the Plumb
plan, fight against the Esch-Cummlns
bill.
On the final days of the debate on
the Esch-Cummins bill, the houss
ralleries were Dacked with Plumb
Plan leaguerB who applauded tumul
tously every remark of the Tennes
see champion of the soviet railroad
scheme. Difficulties developed fer
the Tennessee statesman, however,
when his constituents learned of his
conversion to the Plumb plan. Their
verdict was given yesterday In th
large vote cast against him.
'Westerners Marked Men.
Every member of the lower house
of congress from Oregon. Washington
and Idaho, together with Senators
Jones of Washington and Chamber
Iain of Oregon, are marked for
Slaughter in a circular sent broad
cast from here today by an organiza
tion calling itself the Rank and File
Veterans' association. The associa
tion claims national headquarters in
Washington, but fails in the circular
to give any office number or the
name of a single official.
Indorsement is given on the first
page of the circular to Christensen
and Hayes, the farmer-labor party
ticket, and then follows the list of
2S0 representatives and all of the
senators who voted for the Esch-
Cummins bill. The fact that the rep
resentatives and senators conoemnea
to defeat are the ones who voted for
the railroad bill has caused the sus
picion that the Plumb Plan league
and the "Rank and File Veterans' as
sociation" are one and the same or
ganization, or at least have a work
ing agreement.

escaping obviously because they voted
against the railroad pill. .
The appearance of this circular
makes It plain that the farmer-labor

resigned yesterday because of its
Close affiliation with the L W. W.,
Intends throwing whatever strength
it may have against the renomina

gress in the fifth Washington dis
trict and against C. N. McArthur for

cial targets for the political extrem
ists. 1
In Webster's district this support
will naturally go to the ron-parti-san
