GOVEQNOR COX HAS
FULL CHARGE OF
III
' j By David Lawrence . -
(Coprrlfht, l30, br Th JourBl)
Chicago, 111., Sept. J. Jtmei M.
Cox, - Democratic nominee for the
'presidency, and James M. Cox, man
ager of the Democratic campaign,
are one and the taint person. . There
are imn like George White, national
chairman, and Ed Moore, pre con
vention ' manager, and a hoat of
others who are helping, but the
testimony before the senatorial in
vestigation committee shows con
clusively that the Ohio governor , is
the real executive In the democratic
campaign. .
" Candidates for the presidency hereto
fore have tried to manage . their own
campaigns but usually have given it up
at the end of a brief period of experi
menting, but in the case of Cox his
friends say he always manages his own
, campaigns and that he will be equal to
this Job, too.
WaTUBAL M A9AGZK
- The fact Is. Governor Cox la a natural
born manager and that he has the fac
ulty of getting loyal and enthusiastic
support from his subordinates. But
managing a campaign and managing a
business property are two different
things.
In the first place the Ohio governor
cannot give all his time to the task of
management, and In the second place,
the, time of the whole campaign Is too
short to select the personnel who can get
maximum results in the period of two
months left before election day. '
Hvery Indication, both from the testi
mony of the Democrats about their fi
nances and from the talk of the leaders
who have drifted in here, points to a
late of disorganisation rather than or
ganisation Inatde the Democratic camp.
The money Isn't in sight and ths or
ganization work of campaigning is hardly
started.
The sudden Intrusion of the investiga
tion of finances has taken men like Wll
- bur Marsh, national treasurer, and W.
p. Jamfeson, director of finance, and
even George White, national chairman,
away from their jobs at a time when
they ought to be at work trying to clear
away the preliminaries that should have
been done in July,
MOOBE TAKES BURDEX
The arrival here of Ed Moore, personal
representative of Governor Cox and the
man who engineered the nomination
fight eo successfully at San Francisco,
will! relieve all the Democratic leaders
somewhat, as they have testified; to their
ignorance of the proof on which thd
nominee bases his charges and have aaid
he alone could furnish that proof.
In talking with Moore, ': the writer
learned that ha has been entrusted with
the- evidence that Governor Cox had In
his possession when the charges of a
$16,000,000 fund were first made.
Moore Insists that the Republicans
have a dual organization and that the
national committee and its-subordinates
have planned to raise sums,' while, inde
pendently of them, state directors of
finance and local chairmen of ways and
means committees have started to raise
quotas such as. Governor Cox mentioned
In ihls Pittsburg speech.
CA!C rrjBXIgH KAME8
. Moore says there is no special need
tot Oovernor Cox to testify as he him
self wasn't present st the meetings at
which these- quotas were discussed, but
he, Moore, can furnish the names of
some of . the men who were there. In
other words, the- Cox cam rests upon
- the ' expectation that there are Republi
cans who will testify to the authenticity
of the Cox statement about Republican
quotas and that after the state finance
chairmen have been summoned, the real
quotas will come out so that In thevag
gregaU the sums being raised independ-
. ently of the national Republican com
mittee Will be found to have reached the
estimates read by Governor Cox in Fltts-
burg.,.., ' -
Moore ta an able lawyer and makes the
threat that If lb men who were present
' at these meetings do not tell about it
frankly on the witness stand, they will
" lay themselves liable to charges of per-
Juty. ' . .-.
It begins to look as If Moore will han
dle the case fr6m now on and that Gov
ernor Cox will not appear before the
senatorial committee at all, hla attitude
being that the Republicans who are in
I WA MIIawII . AM MAM... A J . t -
will have been given all the leads and
clues neceeeary to prove the case con
clusively and that if . finances of the

bottom. It will be because of Republican
partisanship and nothing else.'
Cox sent for Senator Pomerene, a
Democratic member of the investigating
committee, two days ago and both Pom
erene and Cox received from the Demo
cratic nominee all the evidence in bis
possession. .
Meanwhile somewhat of a sensation
has been caused by the threat of indict
ments on both aides. The Republicans
say the Democratic finance director so
licited funds from federal office holders,
but the Democrats say It la not a viola
tion of law to do so in a federal office
holder's home, ; and that the Statutes
merely prohibit soliciting In a public
building. Federal office holders in Re
publican and Democratic parties have
always contributed In Indirect ways.
But Msrsh, the national treasurer of
the Democratic party, hinted that In
dictments must be asked against the
wealthy men who signed a paper pledg
ing' their moral and financial support to
spread Republican political propaganda
and subscribed big sums of money for
the purpose.
0. O.. f. DEFEX8E
The Republican defense Is that the
money waa given for the publication of
a book by William Barnes, as the editor
of a newspaper, and was in no wise dif
ferent from the Issuance of a special edi
tion or supplement, by any Republican or
Democratic newspaper. The Democrats
Insist that the pledge itself doesn't men
tion the books, but refers to political
propaganda generally. Some of the big
gest corporations In the countrj pled god
their support They are estimated to
have an aggregate wealth of many hun
dreds of millions of dollars.
It la unlikely that Indictment win be
pressed in the courts on either side. The
effort will be to secure indictments by
the court of public opinion on election
day.

that every reasonable effort be made to
terminate the present bloodshed. It
could not approve the adoption of an
offensive war program against Russia.
"The American government is of the
opinion that the Polish advance into
Russia tended to create a national sen
timent In that country, which ignored
the tyranny and oppression from which
the people suffer and afforded an un
deserved support to the Bolshevik
regime, which enabled its leaders to
embark upon an invasion of Polish ter
ritory. ,
"To prevent a recurrence of their
present .situation, the United States gov
ernment suggests that the Polslh gov
ernment might well take the epportunity
afforded by the favorable turn of events
to declare Its Intention to abstain from
any aggressions against Russian terri
torial Integrity; to atate that its policy
Is not directed against the restoration
of a strong and united Ruasla, and that
pending a direct agreement as to Its
eastern frontier, Poland will remain
within the boundary indicated by Uie

MILLERAND SPOKEN
OF AS SUCCESSOR
TO THE PRESIDENCY
By C. F. Bertclli ,
Paris, Sept 3. The resignation of
President pescnanel of France will
be officially announced soon. Uni
versal Service was today informed
in the highest diplomatic quarters.
It is confidently expected that Pre
mier Mlllerand will be elected to the
office, although It la stated in govern
ment quarters that the premier will not
accept the office unless .the constitution
is revised, giving the president the same
powers as those of the president of the
United States.
Observers comment on the unusual
fact that the famous law firm of Poin
care and Millerand Is apparently
monopolising the principal of president
of the republic Despite the optimistic
reports that have been made, Universal
Service understands that Madame
Deschanel Is "extremely concerned over
her husband's poor health and urged
him repeatedly to give up hla pfflce.
SUB'S CREW SAVED .

at once. Other destroyers darted out
from navy yards along the coast and
herded toward' the spot in the general
vicinity of latitude 3S.36 north, longi
tude 74 west about 50 miles east of
Delaware Capes, where the submarine
with its human cargo was reported rest
ing on the bottom.
The word also was conveyed to the
navy department at Washington, which
evidently did not know anything about
it until 30 hours after the S-5 had gone
down. There were no details yet of the
manner in which the crew of the sub
marine, trapped under water and with
every minute seeing their scanty supply
of air nearer exhaustion, managed at
last to attract the attention of a pass
ing vessel.'
AIB SEAKLT EXHAUSTED
While the ffavy rescue ships plunged
r through the darkness to the aid of the
S-5, the General Goethals stood by to
lend what aid it could. It waa evl
dent that the - Goethals would not
be able to get the submersible to the
surface before the air within it was
exhausted.
Men from the rescue vessels at
tacked the task of boring a hole
through the submarine and Introducing
a hose through which fresh air could
be pumped while the work of raising
the S-5 went ahead. This endeavor
was perilous, but the men went at it
with a will and soon a stream of fresh,
clean air .brought new hope- to the sail
ors Inside ' and staved off the smoth
ering death which had come so close.
I he resoue was tnafle possible by a
war invention a buoy which was re
leased when the submarine sank accord
ing to advices received here this after
noon. Officers on the steamer Goethals
saw the buoy." A boat was lowered. The
men in the small boat rowed to the buoy
and by means of a buzzer attached to It
communicated wlth the sunken subma
rine.
The Alanthus was the first to answer
the Goethals' S. O. S. The ships attached
grappling hooks to the submarine and
rained its stern so the air hole could be
bored.
SAVT ME WAIT TEHSELY
Between 5 and 6 o'clock this morn
ing at the navy radio station at New
York near the Battery an anxious
group of navy officers waited tensely
for word from the rescuers. .At inter
vals during, the night radio messages
had come, usually just a few words
saying laconically. "Men still alive.'
Shortly after 5:30 a. m. came the news
that the crew was safe.
After the S-5 was brought to the
surface, her sailors and officers one
by , one,, climbed out and were taken
aboard the Alanthus. As each one ap
peared, haggard and worn, blinking at
the early ; morning sunlight after the
many hours of darkness, .the rescuers
cheered.- A cable was passed to the
submarine, one end of It sticking out
of the sea, the other pointing toward
the bottom, and the slow trip toward
land was begun. The Alanthus first
headed for Delaware breakwater, and
naval messages received here and at
Washington indicated the rescued crew
would be taken to the League Island
navy yard at Philadelphia.
COMMANDER IS HERO
Although In a rreatlv wMltanarf -.

M. Cook Jr. remained aboard hla vessel
during all of the rescue work, a message

anyway. The middle of September is run
early enough to begin to talk, he con
tends.
He has a theory that the days of the
brass bands and the marching ciubs have
passed us by and he argues that now
adays political speechea serve but one
of two purposes. Friends of a speaker
or friends of the cause he represents are.
as a usual rule, the only ones who at
tend political meetings in this country
these days, Dr. Butler believes. Such
gatherings, he argues, serve either to
arouse enthusiasm among the rank and
file of the one side or the other, or to
give a candidate an opportunity to make
a speech which can then be published
and spread over the pares of the press
throughout the country.
People read and make up their minds
in the United States, according to Dr.
Butler's theory, while in England both
sides attend political fratherlnga, one to
applaud and the other to heckle, both to
gain both entertainment and enlighten
ment.
HAKDI5G VICTORY SKEW
But insofar as he discussed politics at
alL Dr. Butler insisted that Harding will
sweep the country. He can see nothing
else to it. He believes the people of the
nation are out to take a wallop at Wil
son, and the only way they can do that
is to vote against Cox and for Harding.
He has been waiting for the campaign
to crystallxe. for the major Issues about
which the battle will be fought to be
clearly outlined, and he expects that
Governor Cox will state the premises
upon which he Intends to stand clesrly
and distinctly on or about Labor day.
After that the Republican strategists
will know how to map thetr battle out
Dr. Butler says that, after he returns
home, rested and ready, he will probably
have something to say about politics.
and that then he will listen to the call of
his party leaders and mount the stump.
Dr. Butler was the guest of the Port
land Chamber of Commerce at its noon
day luncheon and was the speaker of the
day there, with former Columbia univer
sity students among the interested
listeners.

fund is still growing," said E. B.
Aldrich, publisher of the Pendleton
East Oregonian, who waa in Port

"Some of the additions to the fund for
the monument which will honor the
memory of the late sheriff of Umatilla
county have come from aa far away as
Canadian provinces and from Chicago.'
The offerlnaa wrm 'all from men who
knew or had heara o. w gallant peace
officer, who admired him for his bravery
and gentleness and who agreed that a
permanent memorial shoudl mark the
untimely passing of a man whose public
service had been so great as that of
Sheriff Taylor.
"Eastern Oregon communities are well
represented In the fund. Yet there haa
been no active campaign -of direct solid
tatlon. Itr fas been sufficient to know
by the Newspaper notices that contribu
tions were being received.
"I would not Impute any critical atti
tude on the part of the general com
mittee for the world, for the committee
haa not voiced any criticisms, but the
truth of the matter is that Portland Is
less represented, proportionately, in the
Til Taylor memorial fund than almost
any other Oregon community. I cannot
understand why. He had many friends
here and certainly the story of his life's
work and his murder by an outlaw pris
oner ought to have made everyone here
friendly to hla memory."
