Candidate cox’s views. Received 8.55 a.m. NEW YORK October 8. Candidate Cox, speaking at Nashville, said that next year, if we enter the League of Nations, we can save doTars in our navy alone. With this sum, we could reclaim 23,000,000 acres of arid land in the west. “I favour stopping the building of battleships and giving every soldier boy who desires it a farm,” MR. HARDING’S INTERNATIONAL VIEWS. LONDON, October 7. At Moines, Mr. Harding said: United States troops have no business j in Germany, and if w© make a separate j peace, as I advocate, Ithey will be j brought back. Mr. Harding also stat- j ed: If the League of Nations is not accepted, even with reservations clarifying American obligations, the proper course is to reject these committments altogether in favour of our doing our full part, in the rehabilitation of the world, securing humanity against the horrors of future war. If elected, I will call The country’s b°st minds into conference to formulate an internal ioal programme.
