McAdoo and that the son-in-law jiow understood there was no longer iifijT reason for refraining from en ,'tering the race for the nomination. ;The Palmer camp upon receiving this intelligence jumped to the con clusion that Mr. McAdoo would file a petition in theGeorgia primary at' once. Mr. Wilson for Palmer. Thereafter the attorney general got into communication withj the president through Secretary Tu multy and Mrs. Wilson, both of whom are reputed to be Palmer ad herents. The result was the com munication to Mr. Palmer of the de cision the president had confided to Ms.. McAdoo, together with express permission to the attorney general to announce his candidacy.

There ii a formidable fight on the administra tion being waged in -Georgia by former Senator Hardwick and Tom Watson, who are runing Senator Reed for president, and .he attorney general now will rally the Wilson supporters to his banner. Mr. Mc Adoo cannot enter the contest in Georgia now without splitting the administration forces, perhaps fa tally. , McAdoo Still Confers. Mr. McAdoo was still here today conferring with friends sn the tiues tio.i of announcing his candidacy and making a bid for delegates, despite his recently assumed de termination to seek no delegates and his advocacy of uninstructed delegations and a free selection of the candidate by the convention. It is generally believed that, with Palmer srarnering instructed dele- ffates as the beneficiary of the pow' erful influence of the administration excted through federal patronage, McAdoo soon will be forced into the open, demanding his share Dauiel Roper, who is soon' to re sign as internal revenue commis sioner, is slated for McAdoo man ager. 2,1.

K mrer Sullivan of Illinois was in the caoltal today enroute to Hot Springs, Va, He attended the din ner to Chairman Cummings last night at which Palmer and McAdoo were present and he was conferring today impartially with the two r.val candidates. With such an em barrassment of riches in the way of democratic candidates, Mr. Sul luan would not predict how Illinois will line up eventially and he deemed it quite'likely that the dele gation would be uninstructed. - Labor to Give New Rail Act Impartial Tryout (Continued From Flnt Pete.) road labor organizations, all of which were represented at the con ference, says: - ' Declaration f Trainmen. "The result of fliis canvass . shows all organizations except the United Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employes and Shop Laborers, were au thorized to make the following announcement a$ to their policy and attitude: Nowithstanding the fact that labor in general and railroad labor in particular, with the fuw support and co operation of other bodies rep resenting American citizens, urged the congress not to pass the railroad bill, and the presi dent to veto the 6ame and re turn it to congress, we are now officially advised the president has signed the bill and it is a law. "Labor's criticisms and. pro tests against this legislation are matters of record and were pre- sented to the congress, the' president and the public. "We have not changed our views in regard to this legisla tion and therefore do not en dorse the law; however, as American citizens, we feel that in the interest of railroad labor there is nothing left for us to do at present except to co-operate with each other in the prompt creation of machinery provided for in this law." Asked 0 Notify Hines. v The president told both sides to notify Mr. Hines as fast as they picked their representatives in order that conferences may start with a minimum of delay. . . It developed today that the fears of the men that the executives would seek to abrogate the agreements.on working conditions which prevailed during federal Control were exag gerated. It was reported that the superintendent of one small road posted, a notice saying he wanted to put back the 10-hour day with no pay for the luncheon period. The Association of Railway Executives, however, is" said to be against any such arbitrary interference with the prevailing conditions. As to the extra compensation for overtime, it was held, at the Interstate Com merce commission that this is a mat ter of Wages and cannot be dis turbed at least for the next six months.

Leeds of Soldiers' Aid Hearing Breaks Up in Near Row - (Continued From Flnt Fag..) wanted to appear before the commit tee and that the hearings would likely continue for a month unless something was done to expedite them. A considerable number of wounded and disabled veterans were present. aome or these were members of or ganizations which are rivals of the American Legion. Publications of these organizations were circulated in the committee room in which charges were made that the Amer ican Legion was controlled by wealthy men who served as officers and that the organization was not sincerely in -favor of bonus legisla tion. . The other societies, claiming to represent private soldiers and sailors are supporting a bonus bill. u Olier Against Bonus. Mr. Miller, soeakinz for the American Leeion. was Questioned by Representative Kitchin aout the failure ot the organization to go on record at its Minneapolis conven tion for bonus legislation. Mr. Miller, who is a former member of congress . from Delaware, admitted that differences on this score had arisen in the convention, but that subsequently the executive council of the legion had gone on record for specihe bonus. - Four alternative orooosition fnr the benefit of ex-service men were laid before the committee hv Mr. D'Olier, who said that the American Legion did not want a "bonus" but rather some action to assist the war veteran in overcoming disadvantage incidental to his service. These were: - Land settlement covering farjns in all states' and not confined to a few states.' Home aid to encourage purchase of homes in either country or city. Vocational training for all ex service persons desiring it. Adjustment of compensation of final adjustment of extra back pay on length of service for those not desiring to avail themselves of any of the other three. Mr. Miller said the bonus basis which the executiv5? council of the legion had in mind was $50 a month for the number of months the ap plicant served.

Texts of the formal notification by five neu tral nations, including three Latin American states-, to the league of nations, have been received , in Washington. - The Argentine republic, through M. T.

The Paraguayan minister in Lon- hdon, Cecilio Baez, wrote that nis government "unreservedly accepts the covenant of the league of na tions" and "binds itself to send its delegates to the first assembly." ,The minister of Chile in London declared "the Republic of Chile makes no other reservation ' than that of pronouncing in due course upon such Jimendments or modifica tions of the covenant as may be made by the states which have not ratified it up to the present." It is understood thST the purpose of this was to develop the position of the United States. Persia "adheres unreservedly" in a note signed by Firouz, the Persian rmnister of foreign anairs.

During the entire" day orchestral numbers ranging from popular jazz tunes to grand opera and classical pieces were played by the three orchestras, which were augmented for the occa sion. Elks' Quartet Sings. In the evening the Elks' quartet sang in different parts of the show, making a tremendous hit wherever theyi appeared, and awakening an irresistible demand for encores. The orchestra program was divided into three parts, the first being equally divided between popular and classic numbers, and the last two for the greater part classical. The early pace established in sales was maintained yesterday, dealers reported. They are inclined to credit the weather for a portion of the big demand this year as the warm wind, bright skies and perfect roads fairly scream for attention, as one of them put it. Additional dealers and agents from Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas and South Dakota points are expected today and dar ing the rest of the weelct Students Hurt in Rush. Austin, Tex., March 2.

ATVEBTISEMKNT Blood-Iron Phosphate For Weak, Thin Folks WeaTt, thin, nervous people almost in variably owe their condition to lack ot phosophate in the nerves and lack ot iron in the blood. On of the surest, quickest and safest ways ' in which to make up the deficiency is to take with each meal a five-grain tablet of digestible phosophate and iron known among drug gists here as Blood-Iron Phosphate; be cause it supplies iron to the blood as well as phosphate to the nervous sys tem. People who have tried it say that one five-grain tablet taken with each meal quickly restores depleted nervous energy, enriches the blood, increases strength. ' vitality and endurance, and those who are too thin usually put on pounds, of solid stay-there flesh in a short time. Inasmuch as Sherman Mo Connell Drug Co. and all other druggists are authorised to sell Blood-Iron Phos phate under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back, every thin, weak, nervous or anemi man or woman should give- it a trial without delay.

Canadian Tells the Commissioners of Town Planning Thomas Adams of Ottawa, head of the department of town housing and planning of the Dominion of Canada addressing the city council yesterday, stated that one of the largest problems of many cities is to overcome the economic waste of supporting an area which would house a population seveVal times that of the present. He referred to Omaha as a case in point, asserting that this city is spread out over an area of iJY square miles, with 40 per cent of that area vacant. "Omaha is running a municipal plant on an area which would ac commodate 500,000 population," he said. "The remedy for these condi tions is the zoning plan of city de velopment." Mr. Adams stressed the point that one of the main problems in building an industrial center is prop er. transportation facilities. He em phasized good housing conditions for workmen, a Question which a few years ago, he said, was regarded merely as a sentimental rather than as a practical question. Public health and recreation he also stated were important matters for consider ation by those who are entrusted with the administrations of the af fairs of a city. Aerial Mail Service, N. Y. to Chicago, Saves II O (K1AA AAA T u.o.qiuu,uuua iear New York, March 2. Aerial mail sertice "is not costing the public one cent, but saving the people more than $00,00 a year," Assist ant Postmaster General Praeger informed members of the Rotary club at their "aviation" dinner here. "It costs considerable less than $400,000 a year," he said, "to oper ate a 1,500-pound mail capacity air plane one .round trip daily between New York and Chicago, and by the establishment of such a schedule the Postoffic department has been able to discontinue nearly $500,000 worth of railroad distributing space and clerical hire." Introduction within a short time of a 10-hour airplane service be tween New York and San Fran cisco at an altitude of 20,000 feet was predicted by Glenn L. Martin of Cleveland, another speaker. This altitude, he cxplaihedwould insure a shunshing trip, as aUstorm strata are at low altitudes. Calls Investigation of "Anti-Saloonists" Comical Albany, N. Y., March 2. William H. Anderson, state superintendent of the Anti-Saloon laague, declares that "there are so many comical aspects of the proposed "investiga tion" of the Anti-Saloon league's activities, as authorized in a resolu tion adopted by tne assembly last night, that it is hard to take it seriously. "The Anti-Saloon league has violated no law and I have been ready for legislative investigation for 20 years," he said. iir, -trU I Alto the Great STEINVyAY DUO ART PIANOLA , All the ew Hits in uT anrf iviichine Records OAKFORD -MOjsic Co.
