Harding to Make Dozen Speeches on Western Trip • President Expected to Outline Future Policy of Adminis tralion — First Address ill Be at St. Louis. Washington, May IB.—Having vir tually decided on the itinerary of his western trip. President Harding has heguij, to give considerable thought to the addresses he wilt make enrnute to the Pacific const and in the coast states. The itinerary, as now arranged, provides for speeches in ubout 12 ' ittes, tlie first in St. Louis and tlie lust probably in San Diego, Cal. Although Mr, Harding has indicated *‘ii regards these addresses as some what secondary to the real purpose or the trfp—his visit to Alaska—he. nevertheless, proposes to prepare them with care. Through them he intends to report to the American peo ple on the stewardship with which lie was intrusted two years ago and also to outline the future policies of liis administration. As the first step toward prepara tion. lie has begun to select the topics he deal tea to discuss and to assign them in the various cities chosen for principal addresses. In doing this 'ho president is understood to be forming a policy of speaking upon a topic of special interest to the com munity of which tlie particular city is the center. . To Define Views on Court. The initial address in St. Louis, it is understood, will be of a general nature, somewhat of a preface to the others to come, but devoted In the main to a presentation of the presi dent’s views on the proposal for American membership in the perma ^^nerit court of international justice, r- These views are expected to follow along the lines laid down by the executive in his New York address last month, with (he addition of new argument in support of the proposal. Passing on to Kansas C’lty. the president, according to some of his advisers, will speak upon the trans portation problem. In this address It is considered likely Mr. Harding will outline the recommendations with re spect to railroad legislation which he will make to congress next Decem ber. The next address will he made at Hutchinson, Kan., and from, present indications will'lie devoted to the gen eral agricultural question, the presi dent outlining what his administra-i tlon has done for the farmers with particular mention of the Fordney -McCujtjilter tariff and credits legisla tion. To Announre Alaskan Tolley. Speeches to he made at Denver, I Salt Lake City. Boise, Idaho, and Helena, Mont., likewise will he upon j subjects of particular interest to J those communities. As for Seattle, some of those who have talked recently with the presi dent understand he desires to an nounce his new policy for Alaska as based on observations made during the more than two weeks he will spend there. Une of the addresses will deal with the results of the arms conference, and he is said to feel that the logical place for such a speech would be a Pacific coast city.

Senator Warns ' of Revolutions j Senator Willis Addresses Ad Sell League at “Tiajuana Night’’ Celebration. With the Ad Sell league spending | "A Night in Tiajuana” in tlie Llve i stock Exchange building Monday I night, something was naturally bound to happen. And it did. 4fter tlie J.200 members of the league, all bedecked in bandannas, 1 had been fed Chairman Herb Johnson, [president, introduced the jirlncipul speaker, Senator Frank B. Willis of Ohio. "Don t be a polygamous patriot and don’t lie a pessimist," were his lead ing points. "Pessimism never solved a single world problem aiyl it has never built cities,” said Senator Willis. "To re tain our past successes we must have tlie cheering power of optimism, the driving force of courage, respect for the law and .a little of old-fashioned faith. Place for Americans. “In one of toy committees, lhat of immigration, 1 am endeavoring to keep tlie law strict. I believe that if a man coming from Europe is wiTling to put off his old world ideas for tlie ideals of America, he .athouh! be welcomed, but if be refuses to be all American, then we don't want him. "There should exist no unemploy ment problem,in this country. There are enough Jobs to go nround. Too many of the young fellows aro be gining to look for positions and not jobs; they seem to have the idea that manual labor is not honorable. Un less they change their thoughts the next generation will bo the first in tlie decline of this nation. “Beware of revolutions in the guise of reforms. If tlie spurious re form now proposed is passed, it will | lie the end of constitutional govern- | ment. In the place of reason, prej- ) udice will rule. The proposition is in ! substance, to take from the supreme court tlie power of passing on the constitutionality of congressional i laws. Under the proposed regime, the congress would bo the last word in legislation, there would be no re- j dress should law conflict with the, constitution as it stands—there would simply be another amendment. ' Points Way to Serve World. “In regard to Europe, why should ! we be continually holding out the ' helpihg hand, or rather letting her dip into our treasury. As long as we continue to foot the bills she will be in a turmoil. We can serve the world best by building up our own industries. When we are ourselves j stable, we may help others."

Good News For those who breakfast in a hurry There Is now s Quaker Osu which cooks in from 3 to I minutes—th« quickest cooking oats m the world. It is called Quick Quaker—perfected by our expert*. No other oat dish can compare wfch this tn the little time needed to cook it The game Quaker flavor Quaker Oats dominates because of its flavor. It is flaked from the finest grain* only — just the rich, plump, flavory oats. A hushei of choic* osts yields bat ten pounds of these extra-flavory flake*. That’s why millions of mothers, all the world over, insist on this premier brand. They want their children to eat oats, so they make the oat dtah tempting Quirk Quaker is made from those same selected grain*. But we cut the oat* before flaking. Then they are rolled very thm and are partly cooked. So the flakes are smaller and thinner—that is alL And those small, thm flakes cook qnickly. So there are now two reasons for Quaker Oats. First, that matchless quality and flavor. Second, oats that cook faster than the coffee. Tell your grocer which style you prefer.

May 15.—Last night was dedicated to the city's tiro depart ment at Townhall and the only reason t(ie building did not burn down was because it wasn’t on fire. A packed audleijew heard Chief Kenlon tell of Iiis charges. He told the audience that he had planned a demonstra tion and walking back singe he pulled the handle of a fire alarm. The chief took out his watch, straddled up stage and waited for the entry of the lielmeted corps that was to respond. “One minute,” he called. A pause. "Two minutes,” a pause and a gig gle. "Three minutes,” a pause, a giggle and a moan. "Four jimmies,'' said tho chief. "Traffic is pretty heavy on the streets they havg to travel." Finally, the chief looked for tha alarm box. Ilo saw a young man tinkering with it. The chief yanked him into the wings. But tho young man had fixed it. Soon tho belated firemen arrived, but they went away without extin guishing tho blaze under Chle*f Ken i ion's collar.
