L The Itepubllcan enndidato draws tho
"no uctwcou nimseit nml Governor Cox.
Cox is in favor of going in the leoguo
substantially as agreed to by President
Wilson in Paris. Harding is in favor
of staying out of it nnd using the col
lective wisdom of himself, the next
United tntcs Senate, and tho party ad
visers, in forming an association of na
tions to lessen the chances of war.
.. Mr, Harding gives no details and says
It is no time to give details. Ho sets
at rest all reports that he will declare
for the Hoot plan. Ho invites the
country to reject tho Wilson lcaguo as
dangerous and to trust his administra
tion to devlso ono that is not. The final
result may bo the Hoot plan, or it may
bo somo modification of the Hoot plan,
suggested by developments In Kuropc.
On tills lino tho campaign Is likely to
bo fought out from now till election
day. The bringing of Hoover nnd Toft
to the stumps showsThe prominence
which discussion of the league will now
nttaln. Ot; tho other side President
Wilson, tho only real master of tho
oigumcnt for the league, has entered
tho lists with tho first of n series of
statements. He Is likely to dominate
the Democratic fight for tho league
rather than Governor Cox.

Taggart, in Indiana, who is trying to

sueor like Beckham, who sees In the
lcaguo his only rhanco of returning to
the Senate from Kentucky In tho faith
ful following of Wilson, nnd Ilk? Gov
ernor Cox's own representatives in
Ohio, who began to make an intensivo
campaign on tbo lcaguo issue before
Cox's return to his state.
These stato lenders saw tho only
hopeful issuo tho Democratic party had
beforo the Democratic candidate for
President did. And it was probably a
perception of what they were doing
and Cox was not that led President
Wilson to tako the unprecedented step
of intervening in tho Democratic cam

Got Too Far From Wilson
In trying to' get away from the
handicap of Wilson, the Democratic
party got too far away from Wilson.
It shied off from tho Wilson issue, the
League of Nations. Now this might
not havo been a winning issue, even
If used confidently and. intelligently
from tho outset, hut at nny rate jt was
the Democracy's best issue, as tho
clcvtnh-hour concentration on it by
tho party now proves.
Cox's friends sought to eliminate

subordinating the league isitic. Tho
statement of National Chairman White
that tho league was to bo secondary in
the campaign shows what was in their
minds. Cox was n better politician

By ROBERT W. MAXWELL
Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, N. Y., Oct.
7. The third game of the 1020 scan
daliess world scries brought forth nn-
oiiicr set or strango races lor tho twirl
ing duties.
For Brooklyn Shcrrod Smith, a lcft
hander, was the fifth Dodger mounds
man to nnnenr. 1T nnnnoil Imofllltl.o
Trls Speaker, tho Master J3ean of tha
uievoianu Indiana, nsslgned Slim Cald
well, a rangy right-hander, to tako the
chirp out of tho Robins.
Caldwell Is no Btrntigcr In New York
or tills place. Slim once toiled for
mo lanuccs. uoubtlcss his thorough
knowledge of Flatbush geography had
much to do with his selection. Slim in
sisted ho did not require the services
of nny pro pilots.
Tho weather was warm, the skies
clear, the sun bright and cheerful, tho
magnates charmed by the, musical click
of the turnstiles, tho players peppery,
the scribes active and the fans hope
ful. What more could such a fninily
gathering wish?
Ivy Olson, tho bow-legged inficlder
of the Robins, proved that ho docs not
stop thepi with his feet for he wus the
entire works in that first inning. Ho
took enra of threo chances nnd had a
perfect nverage. Koney took the three
throws. Wnmby was tho only man to
get on, working Smith for n pass, 'but
his mnteswcre not there.
In tho Dodgers' half they Rtarted a
little rally of their own. Olbon opened
by looking over four wide ones. Jimmy
Johnston sacrificed. Then young Se
well broke into tho picture bv booting
Griffith's grounder. Olson taking third.
Walter MailH started to warm up ac
tively in the bull pen. Before "any
thing more hannened Wheat xinch-fl.
Olson scoring. Myers singled over first
base and Griffith tallied. Wheat moved
to third nnd Myers to second. Mulls
replaced Caldwell at this stage and tho
rally ended.
Scalpers Aro Brazen
The ticket scalnors hnvo crown urtivn
again. Two additional establishments
arc in operation between the ball park
and the subway exits. Loud-voiced
young men invited passersby:
"Got your tickets for tho world series
gamo today right hero. We havo them,
gents, wo got them,"
"How much aro they?" ono of our
pnrty askeij,
"I don'-fknow what he's getting for
thorn," tho ballyho replied, "but step
right into tho ofllco, gents, and' get
fiied up."
Thcro has been scalping nt other
world scries, but never so brazen as
that which has cono on hire. T-n nunc.
kulators were fined In police court this
morning, xncy naa been arrested on
the public streets.
Uho turnstiles leading to tho blenr-h.

Weglein, After Telephone Talk
With Moore, Admits He
' "Is Satisfied"
Mayor Moore, angry over the
"in r
Bldious" attempts to "pass the buck,"
as he views It, in the five-cent far1
question, sent out notices today calling,
a special session of Council for 1L
o'clock Saturday morning for action on
the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Cos
plea for the abolition of all free trans-'
fern and exchanges.
Ho took this course nfter a telephone
conversation between Atlnntlc City and
Philadelphia with Richard Weglein.
president of Council, who yesterday de
clined to call n special meeting.
Therefore, the Mayor, for the first
time since the beginning of his adminis
tration, exercised the extraordinary
power vested In hint by the new charter
nnd called the meeting himself. He
nlso Indicated that he would exercise
his chnrter rights and nppear befor
Council in person to tell the councilmen'X
just what he thought about the far
question.

again tomorrow. - '
"But I hod a talk with the Mayor
last night. Wo threshed tho matter out
from all sides and I am convinced that;
in view of the necessity for quick action
on the transit question a special session,
is required."
Beforo he had agreed that n special
bcsslon wns justified, Mr. Weglein ex
plained his unwillingness to call a spe
cial session In a letter to City Solicitor
Smyth.
Von Tagen Won't "Be Stampeded"
Councilmcn Von Tngcn and Buchhpla,
who aro attending the waterways con-
vention at Atlantic City, announced
that they would attend the special ses
sion. "I, however." said Von Tagen, "will'
vote against the company's plan, and,
probably speak against it. I stnnd with
the city solicitor, who snys the com
pany has not made u prima facie case."
Von Tagen said that while the Mayor
had undoubted power to call the ttpeclal
session. Council would not be "stnm-
peded by it corporation."
Mr. Weglein. he said, stood against
tho special session for the reason that
he would not be tumpf ded. This stand,
he added, did not menu that "Council
was breaking with the Mayor."
Von Tagen explained that, of course,
new evidence might bo produced on Sat
urday wjiich would chungc his present'
position. Councilman Buchholz said he
would reserve his decision until ho saw
what happened ut the spvciul session.
