Senator Harding has again changed his position on the
League of Nations. After declaring his unalterable opposition
all of last week, this week finds him championing such an
organization.
Last Thursday he declared:
J do not want to clarify those League obligations, by reservations.

Harding "turning his back" on the League caused such a J
storm of protest that on Monday he proceeded to reverse him

voted at the areneral election is a proposed constitutional j win; but. there must be decision
amendment, known as the "Anti-compulsory vaccination
amendment." The measure is much broader than its title
and
reat
and in its results will effect public health control in a serious
manner. It reads as follows:
Section 9. No form of vaccination, Inoculation, or other medica
tion shall be mailt' a condition In this state for admission to, or attend
ance in, any public school, college, university, or other educational in
stitution; or for the employment of any person In any capacity, or for
the exercise of afiy right, the performance of any duty, or the enjoy
ment of any privilege.
The measure is in brief, a surrender of the powers of the
state to enforce quarantine and prevention measures against
contagious disease or epidemic and nullifies any effort in
this direction by local or state government.
It is not particularly the anti-vaccination feature that
make the bill a vicious one, it is the throwing open of schools,
colleges, factories and places of employment, restaurants,
dairies and theatres to anyone afflicted with contagious
disease, whether it be minor maladies like the itch, and in
fectious sores, or fatal diseases like scarlet fever, diptheria
and small-pox, and the loss of power by authorities to check
the spread of such a disease
and decisions must be enforced.
Under these conditions the United
States cannot quit." TCIihu Root
to Will Hays, March 24, 1919,
(3) William H. Taft has said:
"People are prone to treat tho
league as an academic question, as
if it were for college professors and
philanthropists. I agree that at one
time it was confined to these peo
ple, hut now it is an absolute ne
cessity an dis required by the situ

(4) Herbert Hoover has said:
"As .the covenant stands today
there is a place at which redress
can be found and through which
the good-will of the world can be
enforced. The very machinery by
which the treaty is to be executed
and scores of points yet to be solv

the league of nations as a method
of securing more mature Judgment
in a less heated atmosphere, justify
the creation of the league. To

The Law requires immediate distribution of your

If You Make A Will
