Campaign Thunder in Chicago Misses Substantive Issues
The piece accuses the Senate Investigation Committee of steering its anti Democrat charge toward Georgia negro officials and Republican figures while ignoring campaign spending by Harding supporters. It argues the inquiry serves campaign thunder, not facts, with emphasis on race and political leverage, and notes Georgia voters' presumed tendencies. It also covers American views on Mexico under de la Huerta and Carranza, favorable to stability and economic restoration, while criticizing past U.S. recognition choices and military influence in Mexico.
