Without Asltiiis) Others' Leave,’’
j Harding’ Says
From Canada To Australia, All The
Nations Are Seeking To BUy Of
American Firms
1 Marioil, -'Ohio.—With an emphatic
* declaration' that-the Constitution and
laws, sponsored by ths majority must
he enforced, President Harding ad
dressing his “friends and neighbors’
Who assembled at the fair grounds
here to celebrate his home-coming de-
dared that “menaces do arise, which
must be suppressed by the govermnenl
pending their elfacement by public
^^ninion.”
^^"Coupled with the assertion was the
prediction that “America .will go on
•and that the fundamentals of the re-
public and all its liberties will be
preserved.’’ ■
During his address, the prpsidenl
touched on prohibition, discussed the
right of “ a free American’’ not only
to labor “without- any others’ leaye,”
but "to baigain collectively,” reviewed
the history of Marion, which is cele
brating- its 10Oth birthday anniver
sary, and told a number of incidents
of' his earlier life. He spoke from a
grandstand filled- with'.“home'folks”
and visiters from surrounding terri
tory. Massed , in front of him was a
W. ■ huge crowd. It was estimated there
■ were at least 26,000 persons in the
throng. The weather was cool.
On their arrival at the fair grounds,
the, President and Mrs. Harding were
given an ovation; while frequently dur
ing his address, the executive was in
terrupted by applause.
General Pershing, who also deliver
ed ,^n-:)^dfU;es3, was applauded when
he adverted; “fearless” use of “the
strong arirf'OD the law in communities
wfiich openly sympathise with ruth
less murder of inoffensive? people in
the exercise of the right to earn
livelihood.”
President Harding joined in the
hanjdclapping which followed this
statement.
The president mentioned the 18th
amendment in connection with his ad
vocacy of strict law enforcement. De
daring that “majorities, restrained to
insure protection of minorities, ever
must rule,” he added.
“The ISth amendment denied to a
minority a fancied sense of personal
liberty by the amendment is the will
o? America and must be sustained by
the government and public opinion,
else contempt for the law will under
mine our very foundations.”
Departing frequently from the pre
pared text of his speech, Mr. Hard
ing, with a smile, told how he, a
.“green village youth” once rode into
Marion from the nearby town of Cal9-
•', donia, his., home, on a “stub
born another juncture he
remarked that “back in 1895” he drop-
1 ped-into the “express office” to see
“some of the fellows” there about a
civic celebration.
