Senator Rmoot hns been made to retract re-tract his statements inferring Hint tho first presidency of tho "Mormon" church hns chnnged its attitude on tho league of nations. In n speech nl Tooele, October 10th, Senator Smoot quoted n paragraph from a message of the' first presidency published in the Christmas News, December '20, 1010. He said the message was the last expression ex-pression of tho church authorities on the subjeet of tho league of nut lolls and attempted to show that they, with others, ns he contended, had changed their mlds on tho league. Sonator Smoot 's statement was manifestly an attempt to convey a false, impression. Ho read only n jxirt of the message of tho first presidency, omitting the largest larg-est nnd most iuqiorlant jwrt favorable favor-able to tho league. Tho publication of his Tooelo speech caused tho members mem-bers of the first presidency to demand de-mand n ntrnction. This Senator Smoot promised to do in n speech at Ogdcn Monday. In that enforced retraction re-traction ho said: "My statement that millions of people In tho United States kavo changed their minds oinco tho treaty was brought to this county is absolutely absolu-tely true, BUT I DO NOT WIBII TO BE UNDERSTOOD AS INCLUDING TIIE FIRBT PRESIDENCY AMONG TUB NUMBER, AS I HAD NO INTENTION IN-TENTION OR THOUGHT OF DO-INO DO-INO SO AND HAVE NO INTENTION INTEN-TION NOW." Senntor Smoot did not sny directly that tho church authorities had changed their minds on tho loaguo of nations, but ho implied ns much by inference. It was to correct this inference in-ference that ho was required to supplement sup-plement his remarks at Tooelo by quoting tho full text of tho Christmas message, and making this statement. Tho first presidency of tho church hns not changed its attitudo on tho Icaguo of nations from that expressed in unqualified approval at tho 1010 October conference. At that timo tho sentiment of tho church was expressed ex-pressed by President 1 Ichor J. (Irant, who, after signing n manifesto urging tho ratification of the treaty of jionco and league of nations without rosir-vutinn rosir-vutinn or amendment said: "The sentiment contained In tho manifesto express my personal position posi-tion with regard to tlio league of nations, na-tions, and sinee signing the telegrum 1 have neither heard nor read anything any-thing that has in any degree changed my position on this important question." ques-tion."

Main Street PRICE, UTAH COURAGE! The lack of it in Senator Harding is turning a great wave of Republican sentiment to Gov. James M. Cox. . i . The League of Nations cannot be a reality if Harding is elected unless "SOMEONE SUPPLIES HIM WITH THE LOGIC AND COURAGE WHICH HE NOW SO NOTORIOUSLY LACKS." "IF COX IS ELECTED THE TREATY WILL BE RESUBMITTED TO THE SENATE AND HE WILL SEEK AGREEMENT ON ANY REASONABLE AND SINCERE BASIS." "IF HARDING IS ELECTED HE WILL HAVE TO VIOLATE ONE-HALF OF HIS PRONOUNCEMENTS AND FIGHT THE VERY MEN HE IS AFRAID TO FIGHT NOW TO RESUBMIT IT AT ALL ON ANY BASIS." "WITHOUT SUCH RESUBMISSION EVEN A UNANIMOUS SENATE COULD NOT PUT US INTO A LEAGUE OF NATIONS, EVEN WITH UNANIMOUSLY UNANI-MOUSLY SATISFACTORY RESERVATIONS." The Beginning of a Landslide e. The above are excerpts from a telegram sent to Senator Key Pittman, manager of the Western headquarters of the democratic national committee, by Chester H. Rowell Former Republican State Chairman of California, and a member four years ago of the republican national committee. ''I Consider It My Republican Duty to Support Governor Cox" THE TELEGRAM "In view of the frankness and couraco with which Governor Gov has demolished Ellhu Hoot's attempt to put him In an IrapossN hie position on tho Leaguo of Nations, I can no longer refrain from authorizing you to announce mo definitely a supporter of Cox. I have not hecomo a democrat. I am still a republican. "I agreo that tho courso outlinod for Ssnator Harding by Root, Taft, Hoover and others Is tho logieal one, and If he is elected I shall be glad to support them In urging htm to carry it out. but, while their logic is clear, thore Is no indication that nardlng under- I stands it, and it is still uncertain which group of leaders will intimidato him after election. "The irreconcilable opponents of any league are intimidating him now. "In either case, I would rather support a living man than a passive object for president. "Cox has boldy met the attempt to Jockey him into one impossible position on tho league. "Harding has weakly allowed himself to be intimidated into tho opposito impossibility, "If Cox is elected the treaty will bo resubmitted to the senate and ho will seek agreement on ANY reseonablo and sincere basis. "If Harding is olected lie will have to violate one-half of his pronouncements and fight the very men 1m is afraid to fight now M to resubmit it AT ALL ON ANY BASIS. Without suoh resubmission even a unanimous senate could not put us into the Leaguo of 1 II Nations, even with unanimously satisfactory reservations, I "I, therefore, disagree with my ropublloon pro-loaguo friends, who argue that tho election of Cox would continue the present ( I deadlock, while tho election of nardlng would reopen negotiations. 1 "The election of Cox would reopen tho question automatically on a basis promising practical agreemont. fl "The ehctlon of nardlng could reopen it only if someone would then supply him with tho loglo and courage which ho now so I H notoriously lacks. R I "If he Is elected I will give my support to those who arc tryingto furnish that courage, but I cannot take the responsibility of con- I tributing even my personal voto to his election, I "Whatever was tho case earlier in tho campaigu, tho League of Nations is now tho issue. As former republican state chairman H and member four years ago of the republican national campaign committee, I consider it my republican duty to support Governor H Cox. (Signed) "CHESTER H.
