HARDING GIVES IDEA OF WORLD JUSTICE COURT Nominee Calls for Peace Instrument ‘With Teeth in It’. L. TALKS TO HOOSIER BODY MARION, 0., Au?. 28.—A new world court of justice, built on the foundation of the tribunal and brought up to date with some timbers saved froy the wreckage of the league of nations, was brought forward here today by Senator Warren G. Harding as the republican party's international peace policy. He would take and combine, he said, all that is good and excise all that is bad from both organizations to get sn effective peace Instrument “with teeth in . it.” Only in some such manner its this. Senator Harding asserted, can the world obtain the lasting peace for which it is crying, future wars be prevented, and America assured of maintaining her independence in foreign affairs. In his first ••fighting speech'' on international issues, made from his front porch today to a group of Indiana re. 'publicans. Senator Harding declared that the league as conceived at Paris has broken down utterly. It is due only to the far-sighted republican senate, he said, that American soldiers are not now fighting on fhc Polish-Russian front. SAVAGE ATTACK ON ADMINISTRATION. Senator Harding savagely attacked the administration's entire foreign policy—from Mexico to Europe and from Armenia to Latin America. "Wiggling and wobbling" was the term he frequently used to describe it. "Let done with wiggling and wobbling,” he concluded. "Steady America !’’ Wasting only a few words in introduction. the senator devoted ids remarks entirely and at once to the foreign situation. He safd in part: \. "Let ns suppose the sengte hah ratified the peace treaty—containing the league covenant, what would be the situation confronting our country today? There is hut one answer. “Before this day we would have been called upon to fulfill the obligations which we had assumed under Article X to preserve territorial integrity of Poland as against external aggression. “Let us assume further that the performance of the alloted task required waging war on tffe Russian people, 'ns, of course, it would. “We are glibly Informed that only congress cgn declare war, and congress might Reject the appeal of the executive. “Could congress do that without staining Indelibly the honor of the nation? “J answer, ‘no,’ and back of my Judgment stands the president of the United States.” TELLS ANSWER OF PRESIDENT Senator Harding, explained, that at a meeting of the president with the senate foreign relations committee he put Just aueh a. situation as this before the president, who after some evasiveness replied that ‘We would be untrue if we did hot keep our word.’ ” ‘‘lt was with reluctance and grave misgivings that he voted for the reservations to the league," Senator Harding said. "But now,” he continued, “conditions have changed. * “We know now that the league, constituted at Versailles is utterly impotent as a preventive of wars. “It is so obviolsly impotent it has not even been tried. "It could not survive a single test. , "The original league mistakenly <*oll ••elred and unreasonably Insisted upon, bas undoubtedly passed possibility of restoration. “ft tested upon the power of might, not of right. "The assertion is made frequently that through the surrender of our nationality we might have saved the life of the covenant! that it, although twentyeight nations could not make it function cue added to that twenty-eight cold rjike it a glowing success, provided that one be America. “What can it signify if not that it is tn the United States alone that tile other twenty-eight nations look for the bone and ainew, the money, munitions and men to sustain tne entire organization, not. as an agency of peace, but as an armed force?” QUOTES STATEMENT OF LLOYD GEORGE. Senator Harding quoted Lioyd George, the British premier, as saying that no armed force could be sent to Poland’s aid because the European nations could not provide the troops and the United States had “withdrawn, from co-opera-tion." “Could a idearer indication of what would be expected of this country as a member of the league be. required?” he asked. “So many things have been done by the present expiring administration that no power on efirth couM induce me to do, that J can not even attempt to recount them.

COOLIDGE OPENS MAS&CAMPAIGN Nominee Makes Attack on Present Administration. BOSTON. Mass.. Aug. 28.—" Everybody is tired of the present administration,” particularly its “conduct of our affairs abroad,” Gov. C’alvin Coolidge, vice presidential nomiuee, declared in opening the republican campaign in Massachusetts with a speech at the Bravea’ field today. "The country is not only weary of. but completely exhausted by and disgusted with, all doctrinaires and pisionaires,’ he said. “It has bad enough of fleeting fancies: It wants something permanent. “The country has been tired of taking the platform of the democrats seriously, having in mind the promises of the last two platforms and tne totally dissimilar performances of that party." FOREIGN RELATION’S ARE DISCUSSED. Coolidge said that “the nation is tired of the present administration because it has earned for us the contempt of the other peoples of the earth.” and continued: ' “It is no answer to say that the reason for this is that the administration has not had a free hand. “It had a free hand In Mexico. “Our downfall began in Mexiea. “Becauge of our failure to protect and assist Americans, our country stands dishonored in Mexico.” “We interfered, but interfered ineffectually.” Pointing to a conference between Cox and President Wilson fit the whitehonse on July 10. Coolidge declared “the public might have no doubt at to the complete agreement of these men." “We have had a victory but the world is without peace,” he said. “Europe is not yet pacified." Iu closing. Coolidge said: “Americans are entitled to the position in the world won for them by the men who followed Washington, by the gallant lads wh*r fought on Old Ironsides, by the victorious forces of Pershing and Sim*. “That position th** republican party proposes to secure and maintain.”

Coal prices should be materially reduced as a result of the order issued Friday by the interstate commerce coin mission relating to the supply of coal cars to wagon mines, according to Ellis dearies, editor of the Foiled Mine Workers' Journal. The commission ordered that hereafter no coal cars shall be delivered to wagon mines unless there is sufficient coal in a chute or does to iond them immedl ately. “Os the 7,500 coal mines in the United States, approximately .1,000 are wagon' mines from which coal Is hauled in wagons to the*railroad siding," said Mr. Searles. "Few of the wsgoa wines have chute* or docks at the railroad track*. "When a ear is placed for loading It la required to stand on the siding until coal is hauled In wagons to toad it "This.' of course, causes great delay iu the movement of the car and keeps It out of more active "Fqw owners of wagon mines will he willing to spend the amount of money necessary to build chutes or docks. "Practically ail of the coal produced in wagon mines is free coal that la sola on the market at 'he present high price* for spot coal and this has been a large factor in keeping spot prices abnormally high. "High coal prices are nbt so much dtnjf to the large operators as to the small oi>£ntors and wagon mines. “Therefore, if a large number of wagon mines close down as a result of the order of the commission, cars heretofore assigned to them will go to the larger mines, whore theY can be loaded more quickly and deliveries made more promptly. "This will help the large operator* to fill their contracts at contract prices.''

Cox renewed his assault or the republican campaign fund today in his first New York speech delivered at a luncheon in the Commodore hotel. “If it were not that the documents presented came from the very inside of republican headquarters,’’-the governor declared, ‘‘then the country might look with some doubt upon the whole thing, for the simple reason that it is difficult to believe that political generals can either be so bold,-'brazen or foolish, and yet the very thing that has just been exposed is simply a repetition of the follies of the year.”

BIG DAY ON FOR NOMINEES OF BOTH PARTIES • Cox Lore Feast in N. Y.— Harding Makes Fight Speech. NEW YORK, Aug. 28.—This Is field day in both of the big political camps. For each it is one of the most important days since the two candidates made their speeches of acceptance, with Senator HSrding outlining from the front porch at Marion for the first time his conception of "a" league of nations as opposed to his opponent's arguments in favor of “the” league of nations, and with Gov. Cox speaking for the first time in the campaign in New Yrn state, and incidentally attending a "love feast” in which hither*© antagonistic elements of the democratic party were scheduled to break bread In preparation for his speech of today, the republican candidate for some days past had been in close consultation with varlons leaders of his party, the latest being Myron T. Herrlc-, who had Just returned from Europe. The former ambassador to France acquainted Harding not only with the present state of feeling with regard to the league on the part of European statesmen generally, but also with the views of Ellhu Root, who represents America on the international commission .which has been working out pians for the proposed world court of arbitration. HARDING WAITING FOR HIS VISIT. It is understood Harding had been awaiting such a message from Root before finally announcing to the country the details of his project for an '‘international association” to which he referred only in a general way in his speech of acceptance. Harding's league of nations was prepared to be made before a delegation of republican enthusiasts from Indianapolis, which, according to advance notices, was to be one of the largest that has visited the famous front porch. Equal Interest had been aroused over Gov. Cox's visit today in New York, following his “slush fund* speech at Pittsburg on Th%rsday night and his addresses in New Haven yesterday. Expectations wero for a record-break-ing crowd at Gravesend race track, where his principal speech was scheduled for this afternoon, in connection with the annual field sports of the New York police. PUBLIC INTEREST ESPECIALLY KEEN. Public interest was especially been, in anticipation of possible further developments In connection with republican flnncea. > But from the purely political standpoint, the luncheon scheduled for noon at the Hotel - Commodore was regarded as of considerably greater significance. Here Cox was to have as fellow guests both friend* and foes in the democratic party. Alopg with Tammany chiefs. Including Charles F. Murphy on the guest list are a number of representatives of the Wilson elemeut. while the man selected to Introduce Cox to the lunchers is Wm. G. McAdoo, whoso supporters at the San Francisco convention catqe close to depriving Cox of the nomination. During the day, before the formal events, Cox wns to have ample opportunity of personal consultation with the various leaders, among whom are Gov. Alfred E. Smith. New York; Mayor John F. Hylan, New York City; W. H.
