The Day ton Journal, a newspaper owned by Myron T. Herrick, former United States ambassador to France, this afternoon made a pub lic statement regarding the widely circulated . handbills charging ."negro antecedants" of Senator Harding. It is known that even national democratic committee officials brand the story as a falsehood, but the anonymous spread of thf charge continues rapidly. s ; The Dayton' Journal, In com menting on this underground cam paign, says: i "To the men and women of Dayton: "Thousands upon thousands of typewritten mimeographed and even printed statements, usually .under the head of 'Harding's fam ily tree' have been distributed at first in cowardly secrecy, and in the last few days openly, by men low down in the, democratic party, unprincipled heelers and men high up in the democratic party who have sunk their standards to the vert sewers of depravity. "The time has come, for plain language. These vile circulars de clare that Warren G, Harding has negro blocd in his veins. This is the vilest plot and conspiracy in the history of the world wortt epochs of American politics. "Unless there is no such thing as truth in the world; unless there is no such thing as honesty in the world; unless there is no tuch thing as decency in the world, if our moral standards are not a sham, then the perpetrators of this outrage will suffer the everlasting condemnation of public opinion within the sacred precincts in every home m-Amencai "The answer to this conspiracy, this-plot, is that its base claims are a lie. "Warren G. ' Harding' has the blood of but one race in his veins that of the white race the pure inheritance of a fine line of an cestors of good men and women. That is sufficient, "E. G. BURKHAM.

Salvation Army 1 Drive Falls Flat In City and State Only $10,000 of Omaha's $90,000 Quota Raised Up to Today Results In State ; Equally Disappointing. The Salvation Army's "campaign for funds in Omaha and Nebraska has fallen far short of Us mark, army leaders declared yesterday. The drive, by. which it was planned to rahe more than $200,000 in this state, has proved almost an utter failure in both the city and the state. Omaha's, quota was set at $90,000 when the drive opened last Mon day. Not more than $10,000 had been subscribed up to yesterday. Results in the state were equally disappointing. State leaders-, how ever, believe by prolonging the cam paign they will be able to reach their mark, although not more than $15, 000 of the $125,000 has been raised.. To Extend Drive. Following a consultation Friday, it has been decided to extend the drive another week. Some leaders favored immediate abandonment of the campaign, but counsel of the more optimistic prevailed, and it was decided to carry the drive with renewed vigor one more week. Of 10 state campaigns conducted by the' Salvation Army this year. only in one . city besides Omaha has the drive tfallen short of its mark. That was ' in Pittsburgh where subscriptions , attained, were only slightly below the goal. Lack of Interest Several reasons ar given for the failure of ; the drive here. One is the lack of interest,, which is ex plained by the proximity of the election and the , fact that so many drives for funds have been staged here together with a lack of under standing regarding the work .done by the Salvation Army. . Reports that 70 per cent of the money sought here is to be sent to England were denied by drive lead ers, who asserted all the money col lected in Nebraska will be spent within the state. To Lap Over Others. By continuing the drive another week, tne salvation Army s cam paign will lap over into a drive which is to be started by the Young Women's Christian association Mon day and the week following the an nual Ked Cross roll call campaign will get under way. v Shortage of, Corn Huskers Reported in Gage County Beatrice, Neb., Oct. 30.
