STRADDLES LEAGUE
By lUyrnjorui Clapper
With Senator Harding En Route
to Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 8. (U. P.)
The October rdrlve of Senator
Harding against the League of Na
tions appeared today to have been
put Into full swing. The Repub
lican nominee apparently has been
advised of the Democrats' plan to
fight the remainder of the campaign
on the league issue, largely, and has
jumped in and tried to get the of
fensive before his opponents get un
der way.
Harding stirred the tremendous Omaha
audience by saying that if elected presi
dent he will never submit the league
covenant to the senate again while it
contains Article X.
Yet Harding continues to make con
cessions to pro-league sentiment. He
declared In his Omaha speech that he
is not completely in accord with Senator
Borah, favoring some form of interna
tional association which the Idaho sen
ator opposes.
The league is proving by far the most
popular campaign issue with the crowds
that turn out to greet Harding.
They listen respectfully while the
candidate discusses the railroads or the
merchant marine, but the moment he
begins to pound the league the crowd
is on Its toes, cheering and waving
hats.
In his speech last night . Harding de
clared -flatly against amnesty for po
litical prisoners, saying it would be no
more Justified than a grant of am
nesty to yeggmen.
Deportation of undesirable aliens also
received the nominee's approval. "The
treacherous alien within our borders
must be led to the gateways and told
to go," he declared, amid cheers.
HARDING HECKLED MORE AXD
MORE IX MISSOURI VALLEY
By Geo. B. Holmei
En Route With Senator Harding.
Omaha, Neb.. Oct 8. (I. N. S.) Well
satisfied that Iowa and Nebraska are
safely Republican by big majorities.
Senator Warren O. Harding swung
southward today Into the closely con
tested state of Missouri.
' Senator Harding has. found In this
brief Invasion of the Middle West that
the League of Nations is the paramount
issue, and every stop, whether It has
been for half a day or 10 minutes, his
audiences have been loathe to let him
go without Borne declaration on the
league issue. Consequently, the league
will receive more and more attention as
be goes along.
ijTESTIOHS ETABED
Both in Des Moines and in Omaha the
Democratic newspapers have , published
questionnaires on the league Issues, ad
dressed to Senator Harding and requests
that he answer them. Here in Omaha
the paper owned by Senator Gilbert M.
Hitchcock, who managed the president's
fight in the senate for the league, pub
lished a series of questions to the Re
publican candidate, ranging from one
which asked If he was in "accord with
Borah" clear down to why he voted
against confirming Louis D. Brandels
for the supreme court.
Senator Harding largely ignored the
questions, except to say that he and Sen
ator Borah were not in "perfect accord.
The heckling which Senator Harding
received in his first day's campaigning
through the Missouri valley has led him
to expect more of it as he dips down
intc. Missouri and Oklahoma, two states
which both Democrats and Republicans
alike admit to be very close.
SPEAKS AT 8T. JOSEPH
After spending the night In Omaha,
Senator Harding's special pulled out at
9 o'clock this morning. The first sched
uled speech of the day is at St. Joseph.
Mo., where the tram will stop for an
hour this afternoon. The senator will
be taken to the auditorium for a speech
and then rushed back to his train to re
sume the journey to Kansas City. He

Congress preferred not to act.
The council of national defense, the

Its work is steady.
and while Mr. Harding recently said it
was not functioning, its 20 odd special
reports show an immense volume of
investigational work.
MERCHANT MAEIXE .
The buildings of the merchant marine
was eminently a work of reconstruction,
and this has provided the fleet for after
war commerce which made the recent
Jones act possible. Now the complaint
is not of lack of ships, but too many.
In a statement just issued by the Repub
lican national committee iti said:
"It is clear that the Democratic gov
ernment ownership policy has overdone
the thing. There is too much shipping
in the world."
Of course, there was no "government
ownership policy." except as it rose from
the necessities of the war. When the
shipping board was asked j to submit
plans to congress at the cfcse of the
war Chairman Hurley proposed the sale
of the government ships.
DEMOBILIZATION WORK
At the close of the war the immediate
demand was for demobilization. The
men overseas wanted to come home, the
people wanted them home, andthe gov
ernment went about the work with sys
tem and dispatch. In the first month
after the armistice 600,000 were released,
and in one year 3,200,000 had been dis
charged. It took a Republican adminis
tration 10 months to demobilise 179.000
after the war with Spain.
These are some of the 'outstanding
facts about "reconstruction." Adminis
tration efforts to frame a comprehensive
program were refused, specific recom
mendations were for the moet part Ig
nored, but demobilization was accom- j
pusnea in a surprisingly snort time ana
such agencies as the federul reserve ays-
tern, the farm loan board, the shipping
board and the war industries board.
established by the administration and
scoffed at by Harding and his element
in the senate, have made the way back
to peace conditions comprehensively
easy.

j AGAINST ALDRICH
After Glenn T. Aldxich 36, who
is being held by the police for the
Chicago authorities on a telegraphic
warrant, clears himself there, he
may be returned to Seattle to an
swer a charge of issuance of an
other check of $150.
R. E. Ed wards, connected with Frye &
Co., a -meat packing company, told
Deputy District Attorney. Deicb Thurs
day that he was in receipt of a commu
nication from F. A. Daniels, his com
pany's Seattle representative, ' that he
had indorsed a check for Aldrich.
Acting for Daniels, Edwards called at
the jail to see Aldrich Thursday after
noon, and Aldrich is said to have prom
ised that he would remit the moneys? on
his arrival in Chicago. Otherwise he
will be returned to face Washington
courts.
Edwards told Delch he waa advised
by Daniels that Daniels knew Aldricb's
father, a meat packer of Nebraska City,
Neb., and for that reason had Indorsed
the check. Aldrich's father wired him
$250 Tuesday to pay a check returned
to J. M. Ramos of this city, Delch said
that he does not doubt but Aldrich will
make good the check which Daniels is
holding.
.Aldrich haa waived extradition and
will be delivered to Chicago authorities
on their arrival here. He told Deputy
District Attorney Delch Thursday' that
he may have made out several checks
while in Chicago which have been re
turned because of overdrawn account
He claims, however, that he will be able
to settle them after he learns the
amounts. The latest check brought to
light is also drawn against the Coin
Exchange National bank, Staten Island,
N. T. Aldrich Is said to have produced
fevidence that he once had a large ac
count in this bank.
Sign Didn't Mean
Big Melons, Too;
Vendor in Trouble
Nick Jsrvia, proprietor of a fruit and
melon store at Second and Alder streets,
had a huge pile of cantaloupes.
Near the bottom of the pile the melons
were all small and "those on top were
all large. The eye of the passer-by,
according to the laws of perspective,
would fall first on the large melons on
top. Then the eye would least econom
ically on a large sign near the bottom of
the pile.
The sign read, "15 Cents 2 for 25
Cents."
P. N. Forsyth, noting the sign, stopped
and foreseeing a melon before his
breakfast plate Friday morning, pulled
a two-bit piece from his purse.
The btg melons, he then learned, were
more expensive than the little melons.
Forsyth had Jif-vls arrested on a charge
of raise advertising.
So we feel that we should
use this singular method of
advising you that unless you
follow closely each week' the
classified advertisements of
the Covey Motor Car Co. being
run in this paper, you are miss
ing not only an opportunity to
keep yourself posted on the
market value of used cars,
but many bold facts regarding
this branch of the motor car
business that may at any time
prove of great value to you.
