ATTACKS G. 6. P. ; v
The. 'nogte- of events' will yet force
the United States to enter the League
of NaSona. Cox expressed these views
at a Jefferson day dinner here last night.
Cox attacked the Republican adminis
tration for refusing even to recognise
the league and for withholding1' recogni
tion from the permanent court of inter
national Justice. In a militant mood, he
averred"- that the .present' government
control-may go Into history as "the out
standing failure of the last 60 years,"
and that the foreign policy of the Hard
ing regime has "thoroughly disorganised
the agencies which were rehabilitating
civilisation."

said nothing about the League of Na

had adopted resolution endorsing it.

' And .the women -were no less affected
at the pi table spectacle presented by the

openly as Wilson strus-gled to speak
and at his futile effort to- stand alone
.without help.

. The women sang "Onward. Christian

I Thee,"- until Wilson appeared at his front
door, supported by -an old negro servant.
.Previously he nsd sent out word that
