;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.
Mr. Palmer immediately tele

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

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

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.

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.

Musical night at the show. 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,

to credit the weather for a portion

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.

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

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
