(Htlldl "WASHINGTON. Oct. 27. The "whole future mural force of right in the world depends upon the United Stales rather than upon any other nations and it would be pitiful indeed if after so maay great peoples have entered the great league w e should hald aloof,'' declared President Wilson today in an address to a group of the proponents of the league of nations at the Whita House today. Although ti:e president delivered the addrtfc.j lo a small delegation at th White House it was addressed to "-My fellow countrymen." "I suggest that the candidacy of every candidate for whatever office be tcst' d by this question: " 'Shall, or shali we not redeem tne great moral obligations of the V. S.7' " the president declared. "The so-called Americanism wh'.cli we hear so much prating about now id spurious and invented for party purposes only. No one who opposes the ratificat.on of the treaty of Vrrsaill' s and the adoption of the covenant London lias proposed any other ad -quatc means of bringing about settled peace. There is no other available or possible mrans and this means ts really at hand. They hae on the contrary tried to persuade you that every pledge cont. lined in Article X, wlucti is the essential pledge, of the v. h.

What Political Leaders In Both Camps Say

Mj Will, H. HAls Chairman It -pnlll.-nn .National (. ominittcr Written Kiprconly fop the I. S. -KV YOIiK. net. 2". The American people, in overwhelming numbers, are going to vote on next Tin-sduy for a complete house eKaning at Washington, and the i estora t ion of a responsive, and responsible republican administration of national affairs. Eight years of misrule and maladministration is more than enough. The democratic party cannot escape a sweeping condemnation upon the record it has made. I have complete 100 per cent faith In a complete republican victory Tuesday because I have 100 per cent confidence in American common sense and because 1 hae 190 per cent evidence that this mass intelligence and intuition will not miscarry at the polls. The American people know the r.eaning of Wilsoni.sm. They know its cost. They know that it has kept us out of peace for two hectic years, despite an ardent and cunning pretense of beatific monopoly upon all pacific aspirations; and they are fully elive tr the lact that the 'Wilson league of nations would prove similarly counterfeit in keeping them out of var in years to come. The American people know that the Wilson party is trade marked, not only uith all its own recently demonstrated incapacities. wanton exara vagances and reckless wastes, but also with traditional, historic and consistent democratic impotence to meat economic crises and' they are fully alive o the danger of longer gambling with the tremendous responsibilities of an already too long dodged reconstruct .on.
