Declaring Support for
Republicans. 1
W. C. Lambert, corporation coun
sel, says that he is irrevocably
against 4he pending league of na
tions covenant and he will vote for
Harding and Coolidge next month.
He is one of a coterie of 'city hall
democrats who are against the Wil
son league of nations.
Mr. Lambert has been a democrat
all his life. He explained that he
regards his present' political affilia
tion as a personal matter and is not
seeking any publicity, but consented
to give an expression when he was
requested to do so. ,
"I have ai strong conviction that
the Wilson league of nations would
commit us to uncertainty and that
it would be difficult for us to retrace
our steps witlk honor if we were
once in this proposed league,' he
said. "This proposed league would
not prevent wars in1 Europe and it
would result in dragging us into
European dissensions. I have been
reading much on the subject and the
more I have read and thought the
more I have been convinced that we
should remtin out of this league as
it is proposed in the Wilson cov
enant. Mr. Lambert takes the position
that he believes that best interests
of the United States will be served
by electing Harding and Coolidge,
and he bases his contention on Sen
ator Harding's utterance! on the
league of nations question. t

How the.l
Is Splitt
'The desertion of the Harding camp. by a former Republican Natipnal Committeeman and
a number of other prominent pro-League Republicans after Senator Harding's uncompro
mising rejection of the League of Nations in its present form in his Des Moines speech, con
vinces many observers that the League has taken its place at the eleventh hour as a clear
cut issue of the Presidential campaign. 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," ( -
