THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 19?0. 1 V Johnson Hits Peace Pact in First Address California Senator at Opening Of Stat? Convention Un equivocally Supports Hardin lor o Float to Show Pilgrim School . Scrie S i By Tli Associated Press. Sacramento, "Cal., Sept; 21. Sena tor Hiram W. Johnson of California in his first speech in behalf of the republican national,, ticket endorsed the attitude of "Senator Warren G. Harding nominee, for the presidency, on the league of nations here today. "Mr. Harding, happily for himself pud for America, has scrapped the league' Senator Johnson said. Sen ator Johnson had been one of the most bitter and unbending foes of the league in the United States sen ate. . The speech, first of several Sena tor Johnson is scheduled to make in California in the national campaign, was; made to the republican state convention at its opening session. 'It began with congratulations "upon the outlook for republican success" and an attack ttpon the present dem ocratic administration.-, ' : Sees G. O. P. Success. ' t "So wide is the dissatisfaction with the present administration," -he said, so great the hostility to many Of the acts of the president ami so' acute the justifiable fear of the jiietamor ,phosis of our foreign policy that ap parently nothing can prevent over whelming republican success in the November' election. ' "The fndictment brought against Mr. rWilson's government is severe, but warranted by the facts. For the first time in our lives the democratic administration taught us what re pression and suppression were. This administration not only curtailed the constitutional privileges of citizens at home, but endeavored to drive us into perilous paths abroad. Free speech has been threatened, not in the interests of patriotism, but for existing power. ; Free Press Endangered ' A free press- has been endangered. A rigid censorship diluted the news and facts to which all wereen,titled were forbidden publication, w,hile government propoganda colored 'arid often distorted the information per mitted to come to the people. These assaults insensibly bred-, intolerance, the ancient foe of freedom. The necessary restrictions of wartime haveJbeen inexcusably prolonged in peace, and our government has strayed' far from those fundamental principles upon which for more than "a century and a quarter the republic has so securely rested." ( Senator Johnson then attacked the administration on the league' of na tions issue. . v "Under the specious guide of a -league of nations to promote peace and -prevent war, we werg to be in extricably bound herTaffer to every future world war," he continued. League Issue Clean Cut. 'Uuon the league of nations.. the issue -is clean cut. There are some gentlemen who seek by a shifty construction of words to obscure it. I do not object to The gentlemen and their newspaper" protagonists hav ing jthcir faces so long as they do not '.carry their league. . But the language of the two candidates is plaki and ambiguous. The one says he will go into the league, Mid I am protld to say that our candidate says he will stay out of the league. "Every normal man desires to promote peace and prevent war. Every 'private citizen and every in dividual iiv official position will do their unmost in the endeavor to pro mote peace and1 prevent yar. It-is possible that th's.'may be done in one. way or -another in the future without involving us in entangle ments or in imperialistic policies or European or Asiatic schemes of ag gression or Ambition. That we will strive to find a way to prevent war goes without saying. But the pres-L ent issue is the league of nations. This has been the issue sirfce the rc '"rn. of Mr. Wilson from ' Europe. During all the bitter, vindictive months--this has been the fight. It finally culminates now in solemn referendum to the peeople. Mr. Cost Says if he is successful he will go in. Our candidate says he wilL stav out. Mr. Harding, happily for himself and for America, has scrapped the league." Says Harding is O. K. Senator Johnson quoted Senator Harding a having said August 28, the'lea rue is impotent as a preventa tiveNff wars and that the "orjginal league mistakenly conceived and unreas-'ably insisted upon lias un doubtedly passed beyond the possi bility of restoration." 'Qn Saturday last, he said, "Sen ate Harding again stated the issue: "The constitution or i. the cove ' r.atit, that is -the paramount- issue. The' two " are irreconcilable. We cannot T)c governed from tioth Geu- evj and Washington. We cannot follow our pressnt chief magistrate without forsaking the father of our, coifntry."
