Harold McLaughlin and Rex Kling, both 12 and inmates of the Riverview detention home, decided Wednesday their confinement was no longer bearable. So instead of attending the aft ernoon session at Bancroft school they hid in a corn field nearby, and planned a long journey. Neither had heard fthe well known advice of Mr. Greely to young men. But both had heard much about the wild and wooly west. Hence it was decided their course should be westward. 1 On to Chicago. "We'll go west to Des Moines." stipulated Rex.

But if the League issue is now rending the Republican ranks, it is also a matter of common newspaper remark that earlier in the campaign it won over to the Harding banner many Irish-American and German-American voters who supported N Wilson in 1916. And it will be remembered that it was on this issue that the Hearst papers abandoned their traditional Democratic allegiance. In the Democratic camp Senator Harding's Des Moines speech was greeted with every appearance of rejoicing. The New York Times (Dem.) declares that "the election of Cox means a League of Nations acceptable to President Wilson, and Republican success ap parently precludes American participation in the League," but, affirms the Baltimore American (Rep.), all that Senator Harding has done in this matter hag been to "turn his back upon the Wilson League and turn his face toward the Constitution and toward the Senate," " and the New York Globe (Rep.) is "convinced that Senator Harding will be compelled to move " for the ratification of the Treaty of Versailles," ( - A most interesting and (instructive analysis and digest of public opinion on the League of Nations issue will be found in the leading article of THE- LITERARY DIGEST for October 23d.
