SAYS HARDING DID NOT DEGEIVE ANY Wilis Condemns Prof, Fisher for Statement | ———— | Marion, Ohie, Sept, 21,—~Challeng- g the recént statement of Prof Irv- ing Fisher of Yale to the effect that “Warrén G, Hard was really at Néart in favor of the league of na- tions," United States Benator Frank B. Willis of Delaware, addressing the Marion Kiwanis club at its “Consti- tution Day" meeting in the home town of the late president, declared “Warren G, Harding was not a de. ediver nor a dissimulator, and I deny thé right to any man ‘to testify against thé dead and to put upon honest lips déesitful words, “Warren Harding was & man of eléar convictions, fine ability to ex. préss these convietions and unfalte ing courage to defend them,” the Ohlo solon continued, “He was active in public life for twénty-five years and particularly so whén the great question of our inter. national relations bhecame prominent “As a member of the senate Wa rén G. Harding spoke in no uncer- | tAin terms on this great theme; as a nominee for his party for the presi- | déncy it became his duty to volce in- | formal addresses on numerous Im- portant occasions his own fhoughts | afnd the thought of his party. As| président of the United States he re- | peatedly expressed his views of the | quéstion in language so clear and | forceful as to admit of no ambiguity, and finally in several of his greaf spééches made on his last tour he | discussed the same subject without | mincing words. “And yet, in face of the cloud of witnesses, Prof. Irving Fisher. pro- claimed to the world that President | Harding had told him that he was | really in favor of a league of nations. T helleve no such thing. 1 prefer to | belteve President Harding dead rath- | er than Irving Fisher living. 1 “It is inconceivable that our great, | openhearted, honest, courageous | president could have said publicly t his friénds, as he did scores of times, | that he was opposed to the league of nations and then could have sought out a man who never was his friend and who bears all the earmarks of a | propagandist for:the society, founded | and financed for the purpose of foist- ing the léague-of nations on the peo- ple,sand imparted this information to him. | “And if Warren G. Harding ever | sald in private conversation with any oné that he was personally and pri- vately in favor of the %éaglie while publicly denounc¢ing it, why should | the pérson to whom he was supposed to have communicated this startling bit of information wait until the lips of the président were stilled in death before he proclaimed it to the world to bolster up a waning cause? “If triénds of the league of nations eéxpeéct to strengthen their cause by such statements as have beén attribut- éd to Prof. Fisher they will find the | -people of Ohio, loving ‘Warren G. Harding and respécting and revering his memory, will repudiate with righteous indignation any and every attempts to besmirch his record by accusing him of duplicity, cowardice _and deceit.” | THE FIUME SITUATION | Washington, Sept. 21—The Itallan | émbassy received today from Rome a telegram summari the Fiume situ- ation as follows: 'he situation in Fiume is trapguil.
