President Says Price Panics
Due to Buying Spurts—De
clares Opposition to Nation
alizing and To Use of Force.
BY JAMES R. NOURSE,
Universal Service Correspondent
Cheyenne. Wyo., June 25.—Armed
force will never succeed in keeping
the coal mines of the United States
working, President Harding declared
in a speech here Monday afternoon.
“There can be no coal mining in
free America under the force of
arms,” he said.
The president spoke to a crowd of
several hundred which gathered at
the station to meet him on his way
from Denver to Salt Rake. He was
given a cordial greeting.
Cites Failure Last Fall
Reciting the efforts made last fall
by the government to solve the coal
problem and to prevent fuel shortage,
the president pointed out that many
mine operators, who "were as much
responsible for the strike as the
workmen who struck,” insisted that
with law enforcement the would be
able to keep the mines running. The
law enforcement was provided, the
president said, but no coal was pro
duced. The commission authorized
by congress is now at work, he said,
in an attempt to devise a solution.
“It is too early,” the president
added, “to say whether the commis
sion will suggest plans of permanent
cure which congress will adopt. I do
know that it will bring us a new un
derstanding of a problem that must
be solved. We shall have a publicity
which will make greed impossible,
and point the way to solve a ques
tion which must be arranged in be
half of vital public interest.”
The commission may recommend
vast storage during seasons of light
consumption, the president said, and
it may also recommend increased
distribution, and make revelations as
to costs of production, which will de
stroy price making abuses. He asked
the consuming public to help all it
can, without expecting too much of
the government.
Urges Summer Purchases
"If the coal consuming world would
buy coal during the periods of scant
consumption, it would guard itself
against price panics and dangerous
shortage when consumption is at the
peak,” the president added. "In the
hope of lowered prices, the buying
is postponed, and that very post
ponement is contributing to advanced
prices. There is need for some in
dividual initiative and responsibility
in preparing for the wintry days to
come. There is a mistaken notion
that somehow the government may
wield a magic wand, or strike with
the iron hand, and produce cheap
coal. It can do neither. You can
no more force the mine worker to
produce coal than you can force the
farmer to grow wheat or corn or
wool. We saw that erroneous belief
exploded a year ago.”
The president declared opposition
to any plan of nationalizing the coal
mines, asserting that it would be
“only another step to the national
paralysis, which a sane America will
everlastingly avoid.”
Defends Sugar Tariff
Removal of the preference tariff on
sugar would not bring lower prices of
sugar to the American consumer, but
would have the effect of destroying
the American sugar industry, Persi
dent Harding declared in a rear plat
form talk at Greeley, Colo., on his
way there Monday afternoon.
“There has been a good deal of dis
cussion about the high cost of sugar,”
the president said, “and a good many
people have found fault with the
president because he did not exercise
the authority recently conferred upon
him by congress to raise or lower
tariff duties to meet existing condi
tions.
“I at once caused an inquiry to be
made into the sugar situation and
became persuaded that a modification
of the sugar tariffs would have lit
tle to do with a decrease of the price
to the American consumer, but might
destroy the American sugar industry
itself, to which the American con
sumer must look for stabilized prices
in the future. I believe with all my
heart in ample protection to the
American sugar industry, because in
my opinion American self-reliance in
the production of sugar will make us
free from the greed of the great
sugar producing countries of the
world.”
President Harding also said he
hoped some day to have a depart
ment of education and welfare estab
lished as part of the government in
Washington.
Party Leaves for Utah
Leaving Cheyenne .early in the
evening, the presidential party start
ed for Ogden, Utah, where they will
arrive Tuesday. Senators Smoot and
King and Governor Mabey will meet
the party there and escort it by auto
mobile to Salt Lake City, where the
president and Mrs. Harding will greet
the school children of the city in
Liberty park, hold a public reception
and have luncheon at a hotel.
Mr. Harding expects to get in some
golf during the afternoon at the Salt
Lake Country club. His address in
that city, on the subject of "taxa
tion” will be delivered in the evening
at the Mormon tabernacle and imme
diately after he will leave for Cedar
City, Utah, to spend Wednesday in
Zion National park.

SHIP LOADED
WITH WHISKY
LOSES CHASE
Former Sub Chaser Brought to
Port By Cuter Seminole—In
vestigation Reveals 1,500
Cases of Scotch.
New York, June 25.—While prohibi
tlon men were unloading a huge cargo
of seized liquor from the Cunard liner
Berengarla, the revenue cutter
Seminole brought into port the former
submarine chaser, Mary E. Gully,
which it had captured after much big
gun play off the Jersey coast, with
1,500 cases of Scotch whisky.
At the same ti.'tie the prohibition
authorities were preparing to break
out cargoes of seized liquor from
trans-Atlantic liners flying the
British, French, Italian flags, all of
which promised to go to court and
into diplomatic channels.
It was a "wetter” day for New
York, and the word "rum” or lta
equivalent appeared on more front
pages than any day during the reign
of John Barleycorn or since the Vol
stead act became effective.
i hese ahips Lome Next
The ships next in order to be cleared
of all except "medicinal liquor" by
the customs men are the Paris of the
French line, the Cedric of the White
Star line, the Caronia of the Cunard
line and the Conte Verde of the
Lloyd-Sabfudo.
Another French boat in port is the
Suffern, and her manifest showed she
carried 18,712 litres of ordinary table
wine, 1,220 bottles of fine wine and
champagnes and 649 bottles of liquors.
A litre is about a quart.
M. Domalain, the purser of the
Suffern, said he hoped the United
States would not seize the stores, as
the crew might rebel if their wine,
which is part of the ration, as cof
fee is with American seamen, were
taken away from them.
About half of the stock of "vln
ordinaire,” is under seal of the
French government for use of the
crew on the return trip, as required
by French law.
Blank Fail* to Stop Ship
The Mary E. Gully was captured
after a long chase by the Seminole,
which worked itself into a position
between the chaser and land*so as
to prevent the rum boat making for
shallow water.
A blank cartridge from the three
pounder howitzer of the Seminole
failed to halt the smuggler craft.
Then a solid shot was sent hurtling
across the bow. This did not have
the proper effect. Then a solid shot
was sent skipping along the water
just under the bow of the Mary E.
Gully.
Then the former warship put about
and waited for the Seminole. The
chase had started within the three
mile limit.
Six Men Captured
Six men were taken prisoners.
tThey gave their names as M. Kelly,
H. Jones, John Drenc, H. Pierson, J.
Cook and J. Brennan. They refused
to talk and were taken before the
United States commissioner late
Monday.
It was estimated the value of the
Mary E. Gully’s cargo was more than
$175,000. The boat was powerfully
engined and probably could have
escaped the Seminole, according to
the federal men, if she had not been
so heavily laden with liquor.

Young Mother Who Rescued
Many Girls on Lonely Drive
Found With Bullet in
Head
Chicago, June 25,—A theory of re
venge was advanced today by police i
seeking the slayer of Mrs. Mary
Lawrence, 37 years "told, known as the
“guardian of lovers' lane.”
Mrs. Lawrence was found myster
iously shot to death In her home on
Harlem avenue, a wooded thorough
fare, just outside the northwest city
limits. Esther, 15 year old daughter,
and John Prangle, a boy friend, found
her seated in a chair as if asleep, a
bullet wound In her head.
Harlem avenue, because of Its rus
tic seclusion, Is known to autolsts as
“lovers' lane." Mrs. Lawrence had
many times rescued young girls from
cars parked at the roadside, thua
winning her title as the popular
drive’s guardian.
Discarding a theory of suicide,
county and city police are searching
for a man they believe killed her be
cause of interference In such an epi
sode.
Authorities today attempted the al
most hopeless task of learning the
Identity of some of the occupants of
the cars parked along the road at the
time of the slaying. Esther declared
she had noticed one car In particu
lar, standing about a block from the
home.
Investigation disclosed signs of a
struggle about the location. Inves
tigators deducted that Mrs. Lawrence
may have gone to the car In answer
to screams, forced a man to release
a girl and then, after returning to her
chair on the porch was shot to death.
Soux Falls Man Alleges Intox
ication and Other Ofenses
Against W. 0. Knight
and W. 0. Huyck
Sioux Falls, S. D., June 25.—
Charging W. O. Knight, federal pro
hibition director, and W. C. Huyck,
assistant director, with having liquor
in their possession, drinking It, be
coming intoxicated and giving liquor
to others to drink, John Neary, Mon
day afternoon .swore out a warrant in
Municipal court for the arrest of the
two government officers.
Neary alleges that on the afternoon
of May 11, the two men "went joy
riding" with a Mrs. Losche, having
liquor in their possession and drink
ing same; that later they went to the
home of Mrs. Nellie Schlotter, 120
South Duluth avenue, taking the
liquor with them; that they drank the
liquor and gave it to others to drink,
and that they became Intoxicated
while there.
The complaint states further that
Mr. Huyck became so intoxicated that
he had to be assisted from the room,
and that after the federal officers had
left City Officers Wold, Meyers and
McMahon came to the house and ar
rested Mrs. Schlotter, entering her
name on the police blotter as “N.
Schlosser.”
A fine of $50 was paid by "N.
Schlosser" on May 18, thus falsifying
the records, so the complaint says,
and goes on to charge that the fine
was paid by Huyck and Knight.
Near recently was acquitted by a
Jury in his trial here on charges of
wounding three prohibition enforce
ment officers when they arrested him
on liquo charges.
