V/ATSON AND McCRAY: “There is no desire on the part of , the people of this country for Hur ding for president.” After his own people in Ohio gave him such a humiliating treatment in the preferent al primary he ought as a matter of decency to have withdrawn his eiaims. As a matter of fact the pirnlie thitTßs that he "is altogether too dose to the old reactionary gang.” And the Fort Wayne News was right in this estimate on Harding and his political character. It was a serious effront to nominate' Watson for the senate. His record is “a heart-breaking load to carry.” | The laboring people naturally will hot support a man who has been so 1 intimately identified with the organization having for its principal purpose the destruction of the labor organizations of the naiton. Aid the Fort .Wayne News was right in this estimate of Watson and ills record. The time has come for straight talk about McCray's record in regard to tax dodging, and concerning the charges made against him relative to his financial reaction to the war. These charges are serious. The people are naturally interested. It is time for McCray to make himself clear.

And the Fort Wayne News was right in its severe comments on Mr.! McCray and his record. Fort Wayne Journal Gazette. Through action taken by the board of directors of the Knights of Columbus at Chicago, Sunday, the board has announced that it will offer $5.000,000 to the American Legion for the purpose of erecting a memorial to the Americans who died in the war. The memorial, according to the announcement, is to be a building with quarters for national organizations of veterans of all wars, and p large auditorium where conventions ian be held. The proposed munificent gift is the remainder of the wai fund raised by the Knights of Columbus. The fund was raised for the benefit of the armed forces, and this may be regarded as a suitable method >f applying the balance to a project in harmony with the organization's war plans. The American Legion has already accepted a gift of approximately $500,000 from the Y. M. C. A., the money being the profits from overseas canteens conducted by the V. M. C. A. on orders from the army. The Legion decided to devote this fund to the relief of disabled former I service men and to the promotion of . its Americanization campaign. Th* K. of C. offer is for a definite pur pose and its acceptance involves con siderations of great importance. The i Legion is naturally eager to obtain satisfactory headquarters for the or ganization. The state of Indiana it i committed to a plan to erect in In dianapolis a combined war memoria and headquarters building similar tc that mentioned in the announcement of the K. of C. gift. Inasmuch as local interests have defeated one movement of an entirely different character, however —to move thr headquarters from Indianapolis t< Washington, the conference on the new project between the K. of C committee and officers of the Ameri can Legion will be followed witt great interest.

patriotic spirit shown by the Knights if Columbus in this offer is of the Highest order and a worthy contribuion to the welfare of the Legion, udiatiapolis News. Before the Indianapolis Star start'd on its wiggley, wobbley program n its attempt to keep up with Senaor Harding it was very pronounced n its views for the league of nations tnd took the right stand that the eague was the paramount issue in he national campaign. Now it is naking excuses'*for Harding's utterances and no doubt regrets that it Hedged itself to support the color ass candidate for the presidency. In i recent editorial the Star said, "The >eople are not likely to take kindly o a proposal for the appointment of . new commission to spend months negotiating a seperate peace treaty vith Germany and Austria, and oik vhich we would have to enforce with >ut the co-operation of any nations ill the many complications and laims that would lie involved have een disposed of in the treaty of .'ersailles, which Germany has al aady signed. The simple and effec ive route to peace with Germany o far as we are concerned, is to rati y what has been accomplished here is no contention in this coun •y that the Versailles peace terms re not satisfactory to us, or that wt ould do as well in a separate com act.” No. thd Star is supporting larding on the grounds that tin eague and peace treaty should hi ejected. When it conies to wob

ding it falls in the same class with he republican candidate. Harding has no program and as yel aas not stated what he stands for. Proving this fact, the Berne Witness jives space to the following reason *hy Harding thinks he should be dected to the presidency: "I should be elected President, ays Senator Harding, because the Republican party, which I represent, an summon to serve with me the nost competent men in the exeeutive, egislative, judicial and diplomatic epartments of our government.” Since tile above statement comes rom the republican organ of the ounty we take for granted that Harting hopes to win on those grounds. Vo show for anyone outside of the lenatorial clique. Senator Harding has come and tone and no one except those who vere going to vote for him anyway, egardless of his visit were very nuch impressed with the republican candidate for the presidency. In his hree minute talk. Harding did not declare himself on a single thing, ind did not say anything but what ould be uttered by any American citizen. Indeed his visit to this city proved to hundreds that he is the same weak Harding as he was in the primary. He received 85 votes in \dams county and 48 in Wells county. Hear Hon. Samuel Foster and Miss Mary Kolb at the court house this evening.
