A GIVE AND TAKE PLAN. | Would Ask for No Privilege, That America Is Not Will- ing to Grant. By David Lawrence. (Special Correspondent of The Eve- ning World.) MARION, ©, July 27 (Copyright, 1920)—Senator Harding would, if lected President, favor the revision of the Treaty of Versailles so that cenervations to the League of Nu- tions desired not only by the United States but by other nations might be nereed upon. Indeed, he thinks the covenant ought to be revised. In explaining his views to the writer the Republican candidate refuted the inference that he would eliminate the entire Treaty of Versailles, including the cov: nant, from consideration. He di clared that of course the original structure would be used asa basis for remodelling and revision. He was inclined to believe the na- tions of Burope would be glad to be rid of Article 10, as would the United States under a Republican Adminis- Gatton, but fundamentally Mr. Harding means to approacti the other nations ceptance Speech, and Explains} COOLIDGE ACCEPTS IN SPEECH SCORING ENTIRE TREATY ALL AGITATORS Says Those Who Undermine Faith in Government. | NORTHAMPTON, Mass, July 27 ~-In response to a speech of notifica- tion by Gov. Edwin P. Morrow of Kentucky, Gov, Calvin Coolidge thi afternoon formally accepted the Re. Qublican nominatio for Vice Preat- dent. “Your presence,” said Gov. fdge, “tells me of a leader cause—a leader in Warren G.

The first duty of the Government is to repress them. “To & free people the most re- actionary experience, short of revo- lution, is war. The greatest need of the Nation at the present time is to be rescued from all the, reactions of the war.

HARDING PLAN MIGHT LEAD TO NEW NEGOTIATIONS, ‘This may lead possibly to negotia- tions between the United States and Allies and Germany with the delayed ratification of the Treaty of Versailles offering the opportunity for revision of the document itself for which #0 many factions among the signatory nations have been clamoring. ‘Of course, Mr. Harding does not iavtend to tie himself up to a definite programme either now or if he is elected. The world situation is changing #0 rapidly that he believes it oth unnecessary and superfiucus to chart a course now that may be eutirely altered by the time a new President of the United States is inaugurated. For the present Senator Harding is Ooncerned with the division in the ranks of Republicanism which grew out of the fight In the Senate between the “bitter-endera” like Sengtors Johnson and Borah and the “mild- reservationivts” and the Lodge reser- vationists. Senator Harding tried in his speech of acceptance to avoid the details of u programme, rather being content to state a broad policy of preserved nationality on the one hand with assured keeping of the American conscience for ourselves which, he believes inspired all the opposition in the Senate, and, on the other hand, “to assure the world of American readiness to do our part in promoting international peace through justice rather than force.” EMBARRASSING SITUATION FOR HARDING TO MEET, Really there might be as muoh em barrassment to Senator Harding in coming out flatly for the Lodge res- ervations ax there would be in say- ing at this time that no part of the ‘Treaty of Versailles could be utilized to carry out the platforin pledges of the Republican Party which favor “a” League of Nations of certain principles. ‘The time may come when with certain safeguards and amend- ments acoepted by Europe that ‘the’ League of Natlons may satisfy all the requirements set forth tn ame platform proposal of “a” League of Nations. Senator Harding would find it neceamiry, if elected, to deal conerete- ly with the Treaty af Versailles as all but four nations —Russia, Turkey, Mexico and the United States—are either parties to the treaty or mem- bers of the present League of Na tions. To way now that he will stand on the Lodge reservations would be to commit himself to a programme of restrictions upon the power of 4 President to conduct foreign polloy which might prove awkward for even & Republican President. The original set of Lodge rew vations voted on in November 1919 were much less difficult than those Jopted in the following spring. In the effort to circumseribe the powor Woodrow Wilson, some af the Senators forgot for the moment that & Republican President might some day be changed with the responsibt- lity of foreign policy and would find of will own the people, “Amother source of the gravest public concern has been the reac- tionary tendency to @ubstitute pri- vate will for the public will, The Ubservance of the law !6 the great- est solvent of public ils, “There is yet another manifest dis- position which hes preyed on the weakneas of the race from its in- fancy, the attempt to create class dis- tinctions.
