HARDING DENIES
.SUIFION LEAGUE
Declares Democrats Attempt to
Divert Attention From
Chaos at Homo
SPEAKS AT ROCHESTER
By tlio Associated Press
Rochester, N. V Oct. 21. Staking
his first speech of the campaign in New
York state, Senator Harding ngnln
challenged hit Democratic opponents
here today to show by his public utter
ances where ho has changed, his posi
tion on the League of Nations since he
accepted the Republican nomination.
Rrstntlnft his stand, he declared the na
tion "cannot take seriously the Demo
cratic insistence that the covenant shall
bo considered for acceptance ns it
stands," nnd added that for "such a
rejection" he had stood unfailingly.
He also asserted thnt he hnd fa
vored consistently an International as
sociation In the interest of peace, but
could not under present conditions frame
a definite nnd specific plnn.
"I nm not that kind of a enndidnte,"
lie continued. "It Is easy enough for a
enndidnte who is going to lose to sny
almost anything about n Lenguo of No
tions or nny future plans for America.
Sect Tragic .Mismanagement
"The Democratic forces, hnve para
mounted tho solemn referendum of our
foreign relations, nnd we have gladly
accepted, but that does not hlind us to
the fnct that it is designed to divert
nttention from the unhappy failure of
domestic administration. The great nnd
solemn referendum will not make the
American people forget the tragic mis
management of their own nffalrs. be
cause they have long since passed Judg
ment on our foreign relations.
"Surely the American people cannot
take seriously the Democratic insistence
that the Paris covenant shall still be
considered, as platform and candidates
insist, for acceptance as it stands. Such
a rejection has been twice recorded. I
have repentedly spoken such rejection
front the day of accepting my nomina
tion with unfailing consistency.
"But I hnve never stopped there. I
chnllengc contradiction. I Invite nny
man's pnrnllel of utterances which nre
not in accord. I hnve unfailingly snld
thnt we wish to nssocinte with other
nntlons nnd to end wnr nnd promote nud
preserve pence.
"The other nations of the world nre
wiser thnn our political opponents. They
have accepted the fact that there is no
hope of uniting Americans or even a
very nubstantinl minority behind the im
possible proposal thnt we hnd accepted
the rovennnt as written. The foreign
nations huve set their fnces to the fu
ture. So must America, so must every
friend of the new nnd better order.
No Dcslro to Dictate
"If I believed in attempting to ex
press the purpose of the American peo
phi before being clothed with authority
to consult them, if 1 desired to dictate
to foreign nations, it would be possible
for me to suggest n new lengue, nnd
sny to the nations of the earth and to
in native countrymen: 'Take this or
take nothing. But I nm not that kind
of a candidate,
"No man In my position, with nny
conscience whntever, or any sense of his
responsibility, cuiihl hnve the effrontery
or the lnck of statesmnnship which
would nllnw him to present n plnn which
might have to he rcvlcd hecuuse of the
hnnncnings in n rapid (low of events
or because the public opinion of Atnor
icn hnd not been consulted siithciently.
"I trust thnt it will not he Improper
for us to consider ns n hypothetical
question where the country would find
itself in regard to the Leugue of ba
tons even if my opponent were elected.
The very latest comer into politics knows
very well thnt it is numerically im
possible for my opponent to obtain
enough votes in the Sennte to make good
his program or even remotely npproach
success in making good his program.
Chaos In Home Affairs
"How 1b it possible to take seriously
then this frantic effort to divert our
attention from the chaos in our homo
affairs into which the Democratic ex
periment has led us? It has been my
duty, therefore, to present n construc
tive program which will put our house
in order.
"I say to you. so that there shall
be nothing vngne nor indefinite about
the difference between ourselves nnd our
opponents, that they hnve snarled our
ntfnirs nnd entangled our prospects nnd
endangered our prosperity and even
menaced our right to cull our American
souls and minds and bodies our own.
"The Repiibllcnii party nnd Americn,
with nn idealism which limits itself to
whilom uiid possibility looks forward to
the future with a new faith."

"In his speech of August 28 nnd in

lighted" to see established on "inter

there would be a full discussion of in
ternntionnl problems which might form
public opinion and thus tend to prevent

possible to go bc.vond this." said the

the efforts nnd endeavors of clvilled
people to end wars," he continued.
