...clear and able analysis of the Republican case was presented by Mr. Hoover in his speech at Indianapolis yesterday. Not so much for new arguments as for an accurate definition of existing issues and their relative importance is the address notable. Mr. Hoover does an especial service in placing the league problem--important as it is--in its true perspective to the broader issue of the campaign. In his telling phrase...
...that failure Mr. Hoover speaks with an intimate knowledge and a lack of partisan heat that cannot fail to persuade. His review is detailed and overwhelming and points a moral for the future that is inescapable. The failure of Democratic leadership--"disintegration," Mr. Hoover well calls the present status of Mr. Wilson's Administration--necessitates that "the responsibilities of government be transferred."

...CRIMSON believes, moreover, that the lasting establishment of the League of Nations is more safely assured under the guidance of a Republican administration supported by such leaders as Root, Hughes, Taft, Hoover, and Wickersham, than it could possibly be under the Democratic hegemony of Murphy, Brennan, Taggart, Nugent, and the powers that lurk in Tammany Hall. Accordingly, therefore, the CRIMSON pledges its support to the election of Senator Harding and Governor Coolidge...
