Washington. Oct. 30. (WASH
INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOUR
NAL.) The campaign Is winding
up with the usual maze of clalma
and prognostications put forth by
rival managers. These guesses do
not fool many people because they
are manifestly padded.
At this time they revolve principally
around Ohio and Indiana, because with
them, the border states, the South and
the uncertain Western states. Cox can
win without New York. The situation
as to Ohio and Indiana seems to be that
the Democrats are afraid they will not
carry them, and the Republicans are
afraid they will.
On all sides there Is agreement that
Cox has made a wonderful campaign
after a late start and with campaign
funds massed against him. The Hard
ing people have had money for any en
terprise that suited their fancy, while
the Democrats had not enough for the
most ordinary expenses of organization
and publicity. Governor Cox has over
come much of this handicap by his per
sonal appeal and Individual energy. It
Is conceded that he has made votes
wherever he has gone.
DI88E5SI05 AW SPLIT
If the progressive West so much de
sires a change that It votes for a reac
tionary candidate It will get that kind
of a change. Then .the country will be
in for four years of bickering and dis
sension with the Republicans split two
ways on the league and two ways again
on reaction. This approaching feud
within the , party, temporarily held In
check during the campaign, is causing
Republican leaders much uneasiness.
' They see no dayUght beyond.
Governor Cox. In his notable speech at
Indianapolis Thursday night, pictured
some of the consequences of a Harding
victory and stated the case for the Pro
gressives of the country.
With' Harding elected. Johnson and
B.rabfi win have president who has
scrapped the League of Nations.
Taft and Root will have a president
who only wants to fix up the league a
bit.
The farmers will have a president who
opposed the farm loan act and de
nounced them for avarice.
Labor will have a president who voted
for a rigid anti-strike clause in the
railroad bill.
Penrose will have a president- who
agrees with his kind of a tariff bill.
FOB SEPARATE PEACE
Pro-Germans will have a president to
promote a separate peace with Germany.
Popular government advocates will
have a president who dislikes primaries,
and likens the Initiative to a revolution.
Profiteers will have a president who
was "not much in favor of any part" of
the food control bill.
Soldiers of the late war will have a
president who was actively fighting land
settlement legislation one year ago.
Sympathizers with Irish freedom will
have a president who promises In ad
vance that he will have no official con
cern for Ireland.
Commerlcal Interests will have a presi
dent who voted against establishing the
shipping board.
The big packers will have a president
opposed to the "paralysing arm" of fed
eral control.
The Wall street financial group will
have a president surrounded by the men
who opposed the federal reserve act.
Prohibitionists will have a president
self-declared against prohibition, who
voted to extend the saloon to the Philip
pines. The composite of all this Is what the
country at large will have If the
progressive West gives consent.

. Swift &. Co. sent its salesmen out
over the state of Oregon in Augusr
with specific instructions to sell at
least one case of Argentine cornsd
beef, grown on the Swift & Co.
ranches in Argentina, and canned in
Swift & Co.'s plant in Argentina, to
every Swift & Co. customer in the

When Louis F. Swift, presidept of

senate, during the fall of 1919, to kill
the Kenyon bill providing for the regula
tion of the practices of Swift Jk Co. and
the rest of the beef barons of the Big

that he had in mind, among many other

Washington. Oct. 30. (WASH
INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOUR
NAL..) The author of the best Re
publican platform, best according
to judges selected by the Republican
national committee, has repudiated
Harding and declared for Cox for
president.
It will be remembered that the na
tional committee before the national con
vention offred three prizes for' the best
platform and the Judges awarded the
$6000 first prize to Carl Smith Joslyn
of Springfield. Mass. His proposd plat
form was afterward distributed widely
by the Republican committee. The Judges
were Nicholas Murray Butler, candidate
for president; ex-Senator Albert J. Bev-
eridge of Indiana and David Jayne Hill.
former ambassador to Germany.
Mr. Joslyn announces that he Is for ;
Cox in the present campaign because j
the League of Nations is an issue that
transcends "all questions of domestic 1
policy and all controversies of partisan
advantage." because this Is a work which
will endure for generations.
"The covenant of the League of Na
tions must In some form be ratified,"
says the author of the best Republican
platform. "It is the one great hope for
the future peace of the world. Gov
ernor Cox is whole-heartedly for It Sen
ator Harding Is utterly against It. Not
a man or woman In America should
hesitate because of the hold of party
traditions to declare himself in favor
of this supreme moral endeavor of the
ages. Party loyalty is too mean a vlr
ture to be upheld at the sacrifice of vital
principle."

HARDING AID

Disaffection May Crystallize
Into Surprising Victory for
Cox and Roosevelt, Declares
Expert N. Y. Political Writer.
By Louis Selbold
(Copyrifht, 1920, by Prom PubUihinf Co.)
Nw York World.)
New Tork, Oct. 30. So pro
nounced has been the shift in politi
cal conditions throughout the coun
try that Democrats are encouraged
to believe the trend away from !
Harding may assume proportions by I
Tuesday to accomplish his defeat.
The betting, straw votes and ex- I
pert Judgment, however, point to
his election.
The Republican managers produce
figures to indicate a minimum of 290
votes for him or 24 more than necessary,
but these figures are those of three
weeks ago, before the "breaks" began
to go against the Republican party and
to mark the turn of popular opinion
toward Cox and Roosevelt. Blundering
by the Republican management at a
stage when It seemed they could not
lose and a surprising recrudescence of
popular interest and approval of the
league of Nations, are the two funda
mental causes for Improved Democratic
chances.
DE8 MOINES SPEECH CAUSE
The turn to Cox came with the Dee
Moines speech of Senator Harding. The
discomfiture of Harding was aggravated
by the success that attended the efforts
of President Wilson and Governor Cox
to arouse the "moral conscience" of the
country to the support of the League
of Nations, plus splendid teamwork of
party organizations.
The Democratic managers declare that
the movement away from the Hardlng
Coolidge ticket has assumed the propor
tions of a crusade. The Republican
managers, while admitting that which
is obvious to impartial observers, de

LEAGUE COUNCIL
REVERSES ROOT
Washington, Oct. 3C (WASH
INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOUR
NAL.) From Brussels comes strik
ing news. The council of the League
of Nations has approved the Root
plan for an internat.onl court un
der the league except thi pi o vision
for compulsory arbitration of ques
tions of legal right.
The compulsory provision was laid
aside for further examination because It
goes further than the league covenant,
under which both parties to a dispute
must consent to arbitrate before it can
be submitted.
Thus from the league council at first
hand comes affirmative ruling that the
league Is founded upon freedom of ac
tion by its members and refutation of
any claim that it forms a super state.
Root himself has admitted that his
court plan takes a step ahead of
covenant and,-urges its adoption by the
league assembly next month. The Brus
sels dispatch reveals that the league
council will not recommend it to the
assembly because the council doubts the
wisdom of going beyond the league
covenant.
ROOT MEET'S HIMSELF
Root thus appears in the peculiar po
sition of opposing one part of the league
covenant. Article X, on the ground that
the obligation goes too far, then pro
posing an amendment to another part
which the league council opposed be
cause his plan goes too far in binding
nations to compulsory action.
If further confirmation of the league
council's views were needed, it is sup
plied by another dispatch quoting Italy's
representative, Temasso Tittonl, as say
ing that he hopes coercive powers wlir
yet be granted to the league.
The makers of the covenant at Paris
did not go that far, preferring to rely
upon good faith and voluntary action.
The strange part is that politicians
represent the present league as a super
government which would prevent free
dom of action by this country.
Under the league covenant, as brought
back by President Wilson with the ap
proval of Taft, there Is no provision for
compulsory settlement of disputes. There
are provisions against going to Avar until
investigation has been made by the
league and reports submitted. Root and
his associates agreed unanimously that
the world court should include a com
pulsory clause.
SOYEREIGHTT TOPIC
Those who oppose the league on the
ground that it limits the sovereignty of
the United States, by which Is meant
that the "right" of a nation to go to war
without warning and for any reason is
denied, will no ooubt have a new shower
of anathemas for Root, who actually pro
poses to force the United States along
with an other nations, of course to
submit disputes Involving the interpre
tation of treaties, for example, to a world
court composed principally of "foreign
ers." A dispute with Japan over Immigra
tion, involving alleged violation of the
gentlemen s agreement" would be
question of that character. The violation
of Belgian neutrality by Germany was
In violation of a treaty. " Commercial
relations between nattooa generally are
governed by treaty, and a large number
of political question, including boun
daries, stand on the same looting.
Senator Johnson in New York the
other day was asked how he would
square the attitude of Root with the
attitude ef Senator Harding.
"Tou will have to square it yourself."

1 CENTS REDUCTION
Butter prices will be 2 cents a
pound lower in the Portland mar
kets Monday morning and the price
of butterfat or cream will drop the
same amount.
The new wholesale price of best cream
ery butter in parchment wrappers will
be 53 cents a pound, which means not
more than 60 cents a pound at retail to
the consumer.
Creameries will charge the usual pre
mium of 1 cent for butter packed In
cartons.
The lower price of butter is due to
secret cutting by some of the creameries.
Reports indicate some creameries are
putting out storage butter under their
best brands. Consumers can protect
themselves against paying a high price
for storage butter, by seeing that the
Oregon state brand mark in triangle Is
printed on the wrapper. Only fresh but

By Floyd Macgrlff
Cincinnati, Ohio, Oct. 30. (I; N.
S.) Senator Warren G. Harding

an end tonight in a final speech at
Columbus, summarizing his position
on questions of domestic and foreign
policy.

The senator's Cincinnati speech, de
voted mainly to an Indictment of the
Democrat! administration for the
mounting cost of government and enor
mous Increase In the number of gov
ernment employes, struck a note in de
claring for a credit system to protect
crop .growers. He said that farmers
should not be forced to dump the
products of their toll on an oversupplied
market but should be enabled to hold
them, through proper extension of
credits, until the markets normally
could absorb them.
Senator Harding, answering an ex-
soldier, made tt clear that he favored
a bonus for veterans of the world war,
but he declared even not members of
the American Legion would wlah to take
such a bonus at a time when the finan
clal condition of the country could not
stand such an added drain, and insisted
that only by a return to Republican
principles of economics would the coun
try be In a position to do anything for
the ez-noldiers.
