THE OREGON . DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND. OREGON FRIDAY. AUGUST 6. 1C20. FOREIGN VOTE -IS HELD BIG FACTOR IN HARDING TALK By Darld Ia-rrence ' ! (Cwrrlahud. 1020) Marion, Ohio. Aug. Senator Hardin haa touched off a fuse in the presidential campaign here that ia more than likely to burn the fin gers of both ; the Republican and Democratic candidates if they don't Watch out. Admltteliy the question of; the prejuaices and withes of the xofeig-n born votere in America la one of the most delicate of all political schedules to ht'-dle. The senator In his front porch speech to Wayne county Republican struck out boldly against the League of Nations as a "world experiment" which threatened the concord of s American citizenship be- vCMUse, as he said, it is folly to think of trying to blend aliens in American unity "when the land of their adoption alts In Judgment on the land from which they came." ; , -roitEiax" tote issce Now, the truth is the League of Na- ; lions has been attacked on the ground that it would cause friction amour for eign-born residents in the United States and defended on the basts of' American cosmopolitanism being the useful factor 1n mediating disputes abroad. But the interesting thing la that both at the Re publican and Democratic campaign head? quarters there are to be found this year as : In every other presidential contest r certain' bureaus designed to corral the ' loreign pornfvote. - To the- - Irish i; voters, the Republicans are appealing for .support on the theory that the League of Nations somehow through Article X requires America to support England as against Ireland. I DEMOCRATS JpESTT IT -This the Democrats stoutly deny, as serting that Article XI in the league covenant Would enable America, for th first time.: to approach Kngland ottU claUy and make the matter of Irish self, determination an International, instead of .. a domestic j Question, , as Kngland claims It la j. i To the Italian voters the Republicans are appealing- tor- support, becauiie of ; .7 1 Wilson's supposed antipathy to Italian nlr.tlnna 4r u . ' tlon. The Democrats would probably be hfnpy to the Flume controversy settled to enable them to point to Italy's acceptance of a settlement as a proof of Italian approval! of the concert of ha- .w r,th,ermn voters, the appeal of The Republicans need not be more than an emphasis on Wllsonlsm, which is still an abhorrent term among those .German-Americans, -vho felt that Amer ican participation in the i war was un necessary, among those who thought the accusation of "hyphenate" was too loosely applied. !:, ;"'i-:-'VK ine utrman porn voters were In financed by the-wishes of the country of their birth they would side with the Democrats who want to" see the League of Nations established, because it is a fact that Germany - fully expected the United States to be a member Of the all important reparations committee and to help keep -down the sue of the in demnity. It Is a striking- confirmation of the American' viewpoint h expressed at the Paris conference by t President Wilson that the imposition of an unlimited in demnity , now has been abandoned. Germany fully counted on American Influence in; the League of Nations to get her a "square deal. But it is a serious question how much German eym pathisers in America are In touch with the desires of the fatherland and hoW much more vital to them Is the expres sion of a protest against the Democratic regime which offended during the war. STANDPOINTS DIFFEB To t the Poles the I Republicans and Democrats will present different aspects or jfoiaBd's plight. The Democrats, will say the troubles in Poland today are due to neglect by the powers, and especially the inability of America to help through the League of Nations, while the Re publicans would answer that ' If this is true President Wilson's stubbornness kept America , from being in the league to render that help. Among the Csecho Slavs ; and , Jugo Slavs, the assistance already rendered by America, to' the i new republics In Central Europe would be used to polltl eal advantage in the claiming of credit by the Democrats for the part played by President Wilson In the establish ment Of those countries and by the Re. publicans for : the financial assistance and relief rendered in Austria and else where in Central Europe by Herbert Hoover.i who has announced his sup port of Senator Harding, i ,;. HARDISG IS FACTOB But, fundamentally. Harding- has opened .! up wide the question of the sympathies of the foreign born In the event that a dispute arises between tha United States arid the country of their oinn. xne dissent Ion inside America when the United States got into con flict with Germany occurred, say the Democrats, when there was no Leaeue of Nations, and they: declare, moreover, that the Irish-Americans have sat In the lobbies of coneress and Influenced the passage of resolution after resolu tion offensive to Great Britain. On the other : hand, Wilson h himself has con. tended .that because America was made up of various , nationalities her neonle Could brlngi friendly influence to bear and' could better understand European controversies. .. CONFIDENCE FELT " Senator Hard ine- is iconfif!nt tmm Amp rica's experience ! with the hyphen in the war with Germany that the Unit ed States would ' be i perpetually torn with disputes among : her own citisefts if this country .sat on a council and dis cussed European Questions. - It in fnn - sidered by Republicans as one of the ' roost powerrui arguments that could be made against America's entrance Into the. league and : will unquestionably be the basis of , Republican efforts to sei cure the support of foreign born voters for a . policy of hands ioff Kujrope. But the trouble is that many foreign born want America to Vise j her Influence In Europe end. to mix in Its two egded ALLEGED WASTE BY DEMOCRATIC RULE G. 0. P. THUNDER By James Kilgallen Chicago, Aug. ? 6. -Republican speakers; soon to be spellbinding in all parts of the land, ; are ' going to charge the Democratic party in "wanton waste", and "criminal ex travagance.

EXTBA'YAGANCE IS CRY Congressman Good said after the conference that he will deliver several speeches during the campaign anu hia theme will be the extravagance of ths Democratic administration. "The government today Is honey combed wtth wast and duplication," he declared. "When congress made its budget proposal... a. remedy that, would put the government on a business basis, a man In the treasury department wrote a veto for the president and it was lost," From the time the United States en tered the wur to the end of this fiscal year. June 30 it paf4 out more than 140.000,000,000, according to Good.' k ' "Such waste is without parallel, he said, -"it was wanton and in some cases criminal.
