Individual Presidont
"Llko Wilson"
TAKES SLAM AT HARDING
By the Afisoflntcd Pros
Now Yorli. Srpt. 14. flitted State
rVnator Ollbert M. Hitchcock, of
Nebraska, npcnkltiR before the Ark
wrljht Club here today, drclored Got
frnor Cox. If elected, would exercise the
powers of his office an they were exer
cised by Wilson, Kooscvelt, Cleveland,
Xlacoln and other strong men of both
rtles, while Henator Harding. If
,lected, would exercise his presidential
lowers "under pome form of dictator
hlp by n senatorial oligarchy In control
of party machinery."
"If -this question can be fairly con
sidered by the voters," he said. "It
seems to me a majority will decide In
favor of an Individual President, rather
than a President acting as a figurehead
for a combination of senators.
"The Itepubllcau managers, relying
an the belief that their party Is the
strongest, have adopted a platform
which may be interpreted In sceral dif
ferent was, after election, on a num
ber of unimportant Issues. They hae
nominated a candidate of their own
choice aud have restricted him to his
front porch They have brought before
him hand picked nudlences for formal
addresses, and meanwhile lime ilex otoil
their energies to the collection and us?
of campaign funds to be used in or
ganizing for the campaign. They arc
living up to the idea that ull that is
necessary Is to get out the party
.strength to insure a party victor."
The Democratic program, the sena
tor said, consists of a direct appeal to
the people of the country without re
gard to party, on the issues of the dnj .
"The Democratic platform is bold
and outspoken," he continued, "while
the Itcpubllcan platform is ambiguous
and doubtful. Governor Cox is not onl.
, the party candidate but a party leoder
as well, while Senator Harding In be
coming the candidate, docs not ap
f intently nsplre to interfere with party
radershlp, which remains with those
who made him the candidate.
"Senator Harding sa8 he believes
in party government and if he is elected
the Ilenublican party will covern. It
sounds as though the rauk and hlc of
the Republican party were to reach im
portant decisions and shape party poll
rles.
"The real meaning of it. however, is
that the partv caucus of I'nlted States
. senator in Washington wouldin those
circumstances run the government just
as they ran the late Itcpubllcan con
Tentlon. Obviously this is a party cam
paign of misrepresentation and false
hood. It harmonises with dodglnjr the
sue and deceiving the voter."
Accused of Carrying Liquor
Simon Handel. 1012 South Nineteenth
street, was yesterday held in $500 bail
for further hearing Friday by Horace
K. Mauley, United States commissioner,
charged with Illegal tranportnt inn of
liquor. According to Federal prohibition
agents, who caused the arrest, Handel
had a bottle of whisky on his "hip."
Harding Combats
Oriental Danger
Continued from re One
America tariff protection Is necessary,
then tariff protection must be given.
Ho added that "a long list" of farm
products might be found to require such
must be based on general and not class
Interest.
Discussing the race question as pre
sented In the Pacific const, the candidate
"Today you have come here from the
Pacific coast of our country. I do not
doubt that Americans on the coast are
troubled In their minds about the
rulnntnl mieatlnn. fin It Is called. That
question raises every interpretation of
our watchword 'America first,' for It
involves four sets of obligations.
"It itnolves our obligations to great
foreign powers; It Involves the, obliga
tions of all America toward one group
nf American states and their peonies.
But It also involves the obligations of
that group of states to the nation.
Dangers In Kaclal Differences
"There Is abundant evidence of the
dangers which lurk In racial differences.
I iln not say racial inequalities I say
rnrlnl differences. I am ever ready to
lecognlze that the civilization of the
Orient is older than ours, that her
(ironies Imve their proud nnd honorable
traditions.
"In spite of the honor of these
Oriental peoples nnd In spite of their
contributions to the world's advance
ment, it is conceivable that they may be
so dlffcunt in rntial characteristic:, or
In manner of life or practice from other
peoples of equal honor nud achieve
ment, that no matter whether It be on
the soil of one or upon the soil of the
other, these differences, without rnis
Inc nnv question of Inferiority, rfiipfrl
orit or inequallt), innv create as I
believe thev linxe (.-rented upon our
Panflc const, without blamo to either
side. H friction that must be lecog
nlzed. "The nation owes it to the Pacific
coast to reeognire that fact. The na
tion owe it to the Pacific states to
staud behind them in necesar meas
ures consistent with our national hon
or, to relieve them of their difficul
ties." ,
"The problem incident to racial dif
ferences must be accented as one exist
ing in fact and must be adequately met
for the future security and tranquillity
of our people. We have learned during
the nnxieties of world war the neccs
slt of making the citizenship of this
republic, not only American in nenrt
and soul but American in every sym
patic nnd every aspiration.
"No one can tranqulllv contemplate
the future of this republic without an
anxiety for abundant provision for ad
mission to our shores of only the Immi
grant who can be assimilated and
thoroughl) imbued with the American
spirit
Haven of the Oppressed
"From the beginning of the republic
America has been a haven to the op
pressed nnd the aspiring from all the
nations of thp earth. We have opened
our doors freel and have given to thi
people of the world who came to us the
fullness of American opportunitj and
political liberty. We have come to that
htage of our development where we have
learned that the obligations of citizen
ship of necessitj must be answered b.v
those who accept the grant of Ameri
can opportunity
"From this time on we are more con
cerned with the making of citizens thai,
we are with adding to the man-power
of industry or the additional human
units in our varied activities.
"As a people and n nation, as Govci
nor Stephens has said, we do have the
moral, the natural and the legal inter
national rights to determine who shall
or shall not enter Into our country nnd
participate In our activities.
"With a now reallzotlon of the ne
cessity of developing a, soul distinctly
American in this republic wo favor
such modification of our Immigration
laws and such changes In our inter
national understanding and such n
policy relating to those who come
among us. as wilt guarantee, to the
citizens of this republic not ouly ns
slmllablllty of alien born, but the adop
tion, by all who come, of American
standards, economic nnd otherwise, nnd
a full consecration to American prac
tices nnd ideals.''

Washington, Sept. 14. Secretary of
the Navy Daniels, who made speeches
in Maine for the Democratic ticket,
commented upon the clcctlaa there last
night in n statement which said that
the "majority for state; officers In Sep
tember does not foreshadow anything ns
to the November result,"
"The vote in the Mondnv election
docs not Indicate the strength of the
sentiment in fuvor of the League of Na

In a stranght Lcaguc-of-Notions ref

claring that the Republican sweep of
Maine was only nn indication of the
landslide In November for Hording and
Coolldge.
'The Malno vlctpry," said Mr. Fol

tlculaily slgulflceut that the largest per
iciitnge of women voted the Republican
ticket."
A similar btatement was Issued b.v
Mr. Aucr.
Mr. Alter announced thnt a meeting
of traveling salesmen would be held to
morrow afternoon at Room 000 Drexcl
Building to make arrangements for the
pilgrimage of traveling men to Marlon.

In this connection Mr, Auer charged

In support of this Mr. Auer quoted
from n letter b.v B. IL Mortimer, of
the R. J., Larmier Co.
"We want Senator Harding to

business everywhere, is suffering because
of the refusal oi the present niiminis

WOULDN'T ROB G.O.P. OF JOY
Democratic Chairman Picks Out
November to Rejoice
New Yorlc, Sept. 14. (By A. P.)
Commenting on the result of yester
day's election In Maine, George White,
chairman of tho Democratic Nntionul
Committee, today issued the following
statement:
"This is the Republicans day of re
joicing. They planned, labored and
paid .for it, nnd I .would not by any
utterance of mine trob them of any of
their meed of Joy. With a splendid or
ganlratlon rnd with the expenditure of
every1 effort possible to great finances,
they have prepared thV Republicnn stnte
of Maine for this stntd election In the
hope of persuading tho country that the
trend Is heavily Republican in the na
tional race, '
"We shall havo Votes for tho league
in November from thousands of the men
nnd women who supported Colonel
Parkhurst. On a certain morning In
November our time for rejoicing will
come, nnd In the menntime we gaze
cheerfully upon todny's Republican
demonstration nnd do not begrudge It
to them nt all."

Continued from Fas On
various pretexts upon which the coal
men will seek to tctaln the money, over
nnd nbove, tho amount .required to pay
back wages, now in their possession,
Tho workingncn's compensation act will
doubtless figure In It; Increased rentals
and the Increase In the miners' wages,
and half n score of other seemingly valid
excuses.
In fact the worklnirmcn's compensa

an excuse to increase the price of coal

When President Wilson appointed the
Anthracite Coal Commission, consisting
of W. O. Thompson, representing the
public, W. L. Connell, representing the
operators, nnd Neal Ferry, represent

sonably supposed that all facts Involved
in this controversy would be brought to
When, however, in tho progress of the
Investigation, the attorneys for the

Too Little Philadelphia Mone
Is Invested in Philadelphia
We appeal to every individual and corporation with funds to
invest to help finance the future growth of Philadelphia, for
Homes, Commercial Properties and Factories cannot be built
without help in financing them.
All Trust Companies, Savings Funds, Fire and Life Insurance
Companies, located in Philadelphia should invest more of their
money in Philadelphia from whose citizens they receive it.
These companies should consider Mortgages when they are
investing. For it is a civic duty to Philadelphia, no less than a
business duty, to invest in this most staple form of security.
We request the Public, and all patrons of financial institutions
to urge the loaning of their money for the growth of Philadelphia,
so we may have a "Greater and a Better City."
Although Stocks and Bonds have depreciated, Mortgages have
not. Philadelphia Mortgages are worth 1 00 per cent!
