Columbus, O., Oct. 3. —Whether the present economic system is to be de- veloped by the republican party or revolutionized by the democratic party is the real issue of the times, declared Albert J. Beveridge, Indi- ana's republican senatorial nominee in an address here this afternoon open- ing the campaign of his party in Ohio. The republican party, Mr. Bever- idge said, holds the theory that the present economic system is funda- mentally sound and that. American in- stitutions meet all human situations better than any existing or proposed plan of government. Other Views Held. An antagonistic theory he said, is held “by a conglomeration of politi- cal elements made up of the large fragment of the democratic party, socialist organizations and extreme radicals who are convinced that our whole economic system is funda- mentally wrong and that American institutions are antiquated and inade- quate. Must Select One. Selection of one of these two theo- ries Is “the profound and elemental issues of the times, Mr. Beveridge said. Mr. Beveridge's address inaugurat- ing the campaign of the Ohio repub- licans was made at the request of President Harding and he declared that the president's administration had made progress ‘“unequalled and unapproached during the same time by that of any other existing gov- ernment.” He added that until prosperity is fully restored a republican congress is as indispensable as a republican president. Mr. Beveridge suggested that to bring about an era of prosperity cap- the general public. (Continued on Sixteenth Page).

Turks Withdraw a Bit. Constantinople, Oct. 8, (By Assos ciated Press).-—The Turkish cavalry has retired from its advanced posie tions in the Chanak area decreasing the danger of conflict there. This withdrawal which {s described in messages from the Dardanelles as “glight” was supposed here to be in consequence of word received by the Turks that the Mudania conference was in session. The Turks, however, were said to be still to be within the neutral zone. Fafluré Not Unexpected. London, Oct. 3, (By Associated Press).—British official circles attach high hopes to the meeting of the al- lfed personals with the Turkish na- tionalist emissaries at Mudania, but at the sime time point out that the criticalness of the situation has not yet entirely passed. Early reports that the conference was an danger of being wrecked would not surprise London official- dom. Such r«pom are considered likely to appear when the allies refuse, as it is felt here they will, what is ex- pected to be the first demand of the Kemalists, namely, that the latter be allowed to enter Thrace.

The two most important questions to be discugsed today, he said, are the demarcatio of a new neutral zone on the Asiatic side of the Dardanelles and at Ismid, and the evacuation of Thrace. He was confident that an agreement would be reached. Steps had been taken to have only responsible Turkish representatives at this and the gubsequent conferences in order to prevent a recurrence of the repudiation of the agreement made last year with Bekir Samy Bey, then nationalist foreign minister. Both Sides Sensible. “The fact that there is common sense on both sides is the best augury for the success of the meeting,” he added “Naturally many difficult points will arise but there is no reas son why we cannot solve them amice ably, as the allies already have pledged to the natfonalists all their legitimate aims.
