Capital Political Leaders Saj League Fuss Is Made By Political Doctors

TIMES BUREAU AT STATE CAPITAL ! INDIANAPOLIS, IND-. Aug. 13 j Will the league of nations treaty be; a. eontrolline factor in the Indiana '. campaign? j ThU question is being asked with all j eriouBc by leaders of both parties, j Prior to the national conventions, during the conventions. there was j very indication that the league would;

be the dominant Issue of ins cm-j montl. paign. But it seems to be turning out j Capt. Allan P. Twyman of East that the unusual fuss made about the j chicag.0 democratic county chairman league was in a large measure the pro- , presided at the meeting which was atduct cf the political doctors. While, tended by enthusiastic workers troni

the big stir was on the public look-j ed on.- It is still looking on. but it j Is now being predicted by some of the ; leaders who are credited with 'vision. : that there will not be many votes made; or loot on the league issue. j I ZVOT MUCH COXCEHS OA ER IT Both parties stand for an 4T.ternat-i tonal agreement. So far as the public; ia concerned, and this is especially truej cf the Hoosier public, there is not a I great deal of concern over the kind of a league we have. The average voter Is against war and of course both parties have declared themselves for the establishment of such relations with the nations of the world as to reduce the chances for war to a minimum. It is therefore clear to many of the leaders that the issue of the campaign will be the Wilson administration, j There will be little labor involved o.ij the part of the repuor.cans on me stump to point cut the errors of the administration. The mass of voters are disgusted with democratic misrule. On the other hand the democrats can not successfully defend the actions at Washington for the pas seven years. They will attempt to cloud this issue with loud praisng of the Wilson league of nations plan. DEMOCRATS HAVE DIFFERENCES But when it comes to realry Deingj united on. the league issue there is j widespread differences of opinion among the Hoosier democrats. To' most voters the democratic party stands for the Wilson league without i dotting an 'i.- Gov. Cox backs up the j Wilson idea or tne league uatr ( is. Tet Jacob Dunn, former city controller of Indianapolis, and the chlet! henchman for the state democratic cenj tral committee Is spreading propagan-j da against the new tejc law, comes to j ; the front with a statement that Prest ident Wilson's league plan admits of ' reservations.

WET SAYS BRYAN HARDING-COX BOTH Commoner Wants to See Both Make Pledges on League of Nations. ' INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE i LINCOLN, NEB.. Aug. 13 The only real difference Wm. Jennings Bryan sees in the acceptance speeches of Senator Harding and Gov. Cox is that Harding "wants to go back to norma! and "Cox wants to go forward." In the August issue of the Common' er's magazine out today, the Nebraskan takes up the addresses of the two nominees, comparing them point by point. While he admits that he prefer's Cox's language and stand, he makes it plain he does not approve ot what he terms "each candidate avoiding meeting the argument of the other . " The attitude of the two candidates on the prohibition issue, he declares is a bid by both for wet votes. "On the labor question," he says, both Epeak strongly for the wage earner, but neither of them speak with sufficient definiteness in behalf of the general public. 'If we are to have an agreement on the league of nations." he recommends, "why not an agreement between the parties to accept the result binding?" Bryan would have Hard ng pledge the republican senators to accept and carry out the democratic policy if Cox wins and Cox to pledge the democratic senators to the same end if Harding wins. He concludes! "Then a referendum will mean something. But wha twe really need is a change in the constitution bo that majority can ratify."
