In a new perio dical, Oetreue Eckhart, urgea that "all pur efforts should be directed toward making our business rela tions with the United States the closest possible." He declares that Germany must expect nothing from American poli tically, "as the Americans are tired from a humanitarian standpoint." This, ho says, Is explainable hy the fact that the "war proved a disap pointment for the United Htates."

Henator Hnrdlng's speech of acceptance, to be delivered here tomorrow Is ex pected hy his close associates to take Issue with the foreign Iseue of President Wilson In such a way as to advance the campaign toward an Issue between the two political par ties. Those who know the mind of the presidential nominee declared their confidence today that he would make a declaration of tho party's belief and reoorda, uniting success fully the Republican difference of opinion which threatened a split at Chicago. The exact form of tho declara tion was not revealed, but It was said It would follow the trend of the senator's recent statements on the subject and would be particularly militant In its opposition to the Wilson policies, to which the Re publican nominee regards the Dem ocratic) party and candidates aa pledged unreservedly. In addition to declaring "unthink able participation In the league of nations," he will express In direct terms that America should not re main Isolated and to take the po sition that the war's sacrifices will prove In vain unless there Is estab lished a new order with added se curity to peace and civilisation. It Is a subject of speculation how far he will detail this position or to what extent he will cloths, with practical suggestions, the declara tion of the Chicago platform for an International peace tribunal, i It Is regarded aa unlikely that the nominee will enter Into a detailed discussion of the league covenant or will speak objectively of resolutions or interpretations, lis Is expected rather to hold his utterance to the broad principle Involved, hinging his talk to a plea rather to Ameri can Instead of world Ideals. He said refusal of ths acceptance of the league of nations wilt not be accepted abroad a an evasion of duty, hut instead a devotion to the Integrity of tho nation.
