NO ANSWER EXPECTED
The learned gentleman from Brown
University, in Providence, who asked
President Harding If he had done any
thing for the promotion of the “Asso
ciation of Nations'' didn't get a reply.
He didn’t expect one, but he broached
a very pertinent topic. This plan of
Harding's was an excuse to evade the
League of Nations fight. It
camouflage, a pure and simple
of the pertinent issue.
This Association of Nations
ive been promoted in a preparatory
as in the Disarmament Conference
iliat met in Washington a year ago.
The conference did not find time to
tackle it nor was it urged upon it by
Harding or anybody else responsible
for the American debacle In refusing
to sign the league covenant. It never

A CASE OF POSSIBILITIES
The election of a successor to Tru-

Ford. The selection of a Republican

course to pursue, under the circum

Newberry defeated Illegally, though
