Harding on League of Nations and a proposed association
Omaha Bee critiques Senator Harding's refusal to commit to a specific policy on the League of Nations. The editorial argues his front porch rhetoric contrasts with his stated openness to an association of nations and warns of the complexities of inviting 41 nations to join. It suggests a lack of clear direction for leading a country out of the wilderness.
