8.) Before delivering; his speech
on international relatione Saturday.
Senator Warren O. Harding will
meet and confer with a number 4f
Republicans who have widely di
vergent opinions concerning the
merits of 'the league.
J The opinions which the candidate will
take Into account before preparing this
speech range widely from the irrecon
cilable opposition represented by Colonel
Qeorge Harvey, who is now a guest
here, to the tacit approval of the league
as represented by Henry P. Davison
of the firm of J. P. Morgan & Co., who
has a conference scheduled later In the
week. . " .! " I
, Still another shade of belief is rep
resented by Judge Charles Evans
Hughec. Republican candidate for presi
dent In 191, who arrived here today for
his first conference with Senator Hard
ing. Judge Hughes has been classed as
rather a "mild reservation 1st" on the
league Issue. Former Senator ' George
Sutherland of Utah, also classed as i a
mild reservatlonlst." j Is' another who
will meet the senator this week. i
' Approximately 75 actors, headed by
Al Jolson and Including many stars of
the film and stage, arrived here this
morning for a day of jollification around
' the Harding front porch. A committee
met the stars and were taken .to the
Harding residence to meet the candidate
and listen to a brief speech. A Chicago
bend of 100 piece attended the visitors.

This program will be worked out -upon

from San Francisco, the mayor's office
announced. It is in amplification of the
scope of the newly established east side
police substation at East Thirty-fifth
and Belmont streets.
: The problem of policing the east, side
has long been vexatious, because of the
large territory and the small number
of policemen, particularly on the night
reliefs.
With the working out of the new plan,
the policeman at the fire station will be
notified from the central police station
of robberies or other crimes committed
in the neighborhood and it will take
but a few moments to reach . the spot
on his motorcycle. . . -

COX CHARGE MAY

Washington, Aug. 24. Charges by
Governor Cox of the intention to
gather s $15,000,000 Republican
campaign fund may shift the issues
and alter the entire face of the cam

Curiosity, of course, has been aroused
here to the breaking point over the

$1000 limit for campaign subscriptions
set by the Republican managers.
The national Republican committee
has denied official connection with the

others have indorsed the doctrines and
the enterprise. i '
As a matter of fact there is nothing ti-,
legal about the issuance of .the book.

To get the book printed privately for

a big saving. The Democrats may call
it, an evasion but the Republicans have

The Republicans lost some of the East
