Metnber of the Associated Press Associated pie is slusively eee: to the use of & new tel In this paper and vs published : : ; Let us recall. Did nét Mr. Samuel Gompers, oe president of the Améfican Federation of Labor, : start ‘out this campaign to deliver the labor vote of the United States to Mr. Jamés Cox for president? YOU HAVE THE CHOICE. He did. ‘And he has started out to do this same Here is article ten of Mr. Wilson’s League of Nations, which he says is the heart of the league: “The members of the league undertake to re- spect and preserve as against external aggression the terrtorial integrity and existing political inde- pendence of all members of the league. In case of any such aggression, the council shall advise upon the means by which this obligation shall be fulfilled.” This is the proposition Mr. Cox indorses and says that he approves. This is what the Democratic national platform so loudly acclaims. It is, i ad- dition to all else, what Franklin Roosevelt sub-! scribes to and preaches from the stump. It is what the Democratic party, its candidates, its spellbind- érs and the whole works is committed to as its main issue. On the other hard ‘the Republican -party is strictly opposed to article ten and will have hone of it. Warren Harding’s position ahd his party’s posi- tion is outlined as follows: “I oppose going into the Wilson league. I favor participation in a world association of na- tions With an international court of justice,a tribunal | 2.

Such an associa- | tion could, and I believe would, be potent in the effort to maintain peace. The Hague tribunal gives us the foundation of such an organization. Under the conditions How prevailing in the World, with the world fully realizing the awfulness of modern war, it is wholly possible to perféct The Hague tribtinal so that its determinations shall be effective, and ac- cepted without surrender of national rights.” You have ‘the positions of ‘the two paitiés and their respective candidates. Wherever the people have had an opportunity to express their sentiment it has been always against the league. The American people are neither cowards hor too proud to fight. They have satisfied the world in this regard when occasion has dethatided. There is ore thing, however, that they will not do. They will not become a world policeman, a world, bully, or a world “bad man,” arid undertake to compose the world’s infelicities, cure its jealousies, adjust its miSunderstandings, decide its arguthents, or step into its petty cases of assault and battery, with the flower of American youth armed atid equipped for war. The Américan people do not propose to en- gage in any such enterprises or adventures to guar- antee the territorial integrity of any European em- pire, kingdom or state, or to maintain the tenure of any reigning prince or potentate. That is not our business.

Aside from all that Cox is such an infernal liar that nobody believes what he says le believes. THE COURAGE OF LOGIC. ‘‘Americans like the sentimental and are averse to the logical, observes the New York Tribune. We believe what we want ‘to beliéve rather than what facts tell us we mist. “The Wall stréét massacre admoriisties ‘us to have the courage to be logical—to think things through.
