Takes nittcr-Ender Stand After Senator Lodge had spoken, tell ing Mr. Harding of his nomination. Senator Hardiug replied to him there could be no ipiestion that the Ilepiib llcan party, if put into power, means to reject, utterly the League of Na tions. The, leaders of the party have come around to the bitter-ender posi tion. They hud not a word to say for the Lodge reservations.

It Is hard perfectly to recall tho past. HARDING STEPS IN TO AID SUFFRAGE Marlon, ).. July 23. (Ry A. P.) "Karnest hope" that Republican mem bers of the Tennessee Legislature will support ratification of the woman suf frage amendment was expressed today by Senntor Harding in n telegram to John C. Houls. a Republican member of the Senate of that state. The message was sent in reply to one from Senator Honk asking for advice and wns as follows: "I have your mes-age asking me if I would advise that the Republicans- of the Teuuessec Legislature vote for rati fication of the woman's suffrage umeud ment. "It is my earnest hopo that the Re publicans in the Tennessee Legislature, acting upon solemn conviction, can see their way clear to give their support to this amendment. I believe in suf frage our party has indorsed it in our national platform; twvnty-nino Re publican stntcs have ratified the amend ment; but one more state is needed o enfranchise every loyal American woman, nud it would be gratifying to me personally if the Republican mem bers of the Tennessee Legislature ac complished that enfranchisement." Senator Hurding's stand on the League of Nations, outlined yesterday in his sneech formally ncccntine the Renubli- inu nomination for the presidency, was . expected today by his maungers here to furnish the chlet none of contention during the next stage of the political campaign. Democratic demands that the candi date make a more specific exposition of details of the proposed "understand ing" nre fully expected here, and the senator's friends declare he will be ready to answer. In that connection they singled out today one purngrnpli in the acceptance speech ns indicating what trend his reply might follow. "If men cull for more specific de tails," lie said. "I remind them that moral commitals are broad and all -inclusive, and we nre contemplating peoples in the concord of humanity's advancement. From our own viewpoint the program is specifically American, nnd c mean to be Americans first, to all the world."
