PEACE PROBLEMS
TAKE SIDETRACK

New York. Kov. 13. Senator
Harding regard the recent election
as a tremendous vindication o? Sena
tor Lodge's stand on the League of
- Nations issue and as a result upon
the Massachusetts senator will prob
ably rest' the major responsibility
for drafting- the new administration's
policy for peace. M ; '
This information is tendered the writer
by one who has been intimately in touch
with Senator Harding', particularly In
reference to his foreign policy, both dur
ing and since the campaign. It is fur
ther disclosed that Harding, as a result
of the eletcion, probably will not make
,. the league rubject the dominant one in
; his forthcoming ; conferences 'after re
turning to Marion. lie regards' the re
cent vote, it is saidas demonstrating
that the. people are primarily Interested
in domestic issues, and these wllfe be
considered first by Harding , when he
. ' returns.
. tZASS TO CUT EXPENSES
The reason for this is two-fold, it is
explained. In the first place, the Re
publican party intends to begin curtail
ing government expenses at the session
' of congress , commencing : next month.
The new appropriation bills, it is
planned, will provide for vigorous slash
ing of Jobs now filled by some 90,000
government employes ' at Washington,
The reduction of expenses provided in
the tentative plans calls for considerable
coordination of i work directed Jointly
toward economy tfnd efficiency. This
legislation, coupled with the serious
problem of tax reform to be embodied
in the new revenue legislation, probably
will be considered first at. the Marlon,
conferences.
The second reason for delaying def
inite action on the league problem is
that Harding believes there is nothing
. he can do before he takes office March,
4-and, as he himself has stated, so many
things could happen in the interim that
a definite policy could not very well be
formulated until that time.
LEAVES IT TO OTHERS L
While Harding has stated he would
call the best minds-together In confer
ence on the subject, it is pointed out
now by party leaders that this must
not be taken too literally'. In other
words, it Is not his intention, they say.
to summon" a conference including all i
opinions at one time. In fact, .he will,
' one at a time, ask those who have played
an Important part In the campaign dis
cussion, to go to Marion to get an idea
of what should be done. .
. Harding himself. It Is said, has not'at
teinpted to. develop a definite foreign
policy, but is depending upon such men
as Lodge and Knox tp get down in black
and white a program that may be the
basis for later discussion In conference
with leaders on all views on the ques
tion. Lodge is said to have begun work
on his proposal. i
KNOX INTERESTED IX PEACE
In; connection with this there has
been considerable evidence, largely due
1o suggestions from party leaders, rather
than from any hint by Harding person
ally, that one of these two senators
would be secretary of state in the new
cabinet. i r
More, recently, however, friends of
each have informed Republican leaders
that neither aspired to the post, Knox
even less than Lodge.' The latter was
represented as. being primarily interest
ed in drafting a, proposal for peace and
an organization to perpetuate peace that
would prove acceptable not only to the
senate, but to all the - people.
It must be acceptable to the associated
; nations. Knox, .it is said, would not
again' leave, his senate seat to take a
cabinet portfolio, as he did when he
accepted the secretary of stateshlp under
President Taft when Taft was inaugur-'
, ated in March, 1909. i
Cabinet selections will be the subject
of many of Harding's conferences when
he returns to Marion. The only names
which Republican leaders say may be
sure to be found on the-cabinet list.
as the situation stands now, are former
Senator Weeks of Massachusetts, pro
ably as secretary of the treasury ; Governor-
Lowd en of Illinois, probably as
secretary of the Interior; Harry Daught
er ty. If he desires a post, and former
Senator George Sutherland.
. 'Will Hays, who has been mentioned
for a cabinet position, is being urged by
his friends not to aspire to a post. Were
he to be tendered a choice and desire
to enter the cabinet, it is stated authori
tatively that he would rather be attorney
general than postmaster general. The
latter Job has to do with vast patronage
distribution, and Hays, says his friends,
would rather get away from that phase
of administrative work.
; Republican leaders appear to be unan
imous that the new secretary' of war
will, not be a military man. and dismiss
the possibility of either General Per
shing or Major General .Wood getting
that post .
