Progressive backs Cox over Harding in presidential race
Fifteen Roosevelt loyalists who left the Republican Party endorse James M Cox after comparing records in public office. They praise Cox as progressive, citing his House service, early proposals on old age pensions, child labor limits, road funding, flag protection, and reformist voting. They condemn Senator Harding as a reactionary lacking leadership, citing his Senate record, opposition to public ownership, and alignment with party bosses.
