A ser mon on co-operation, not only be tween sections and parties, but be tween individuals, as preached to day by Fresidcnt-ciect Hardirtg, in three speeches delivered during a short visit to Jacksonville. "There is coming an administra tion one week from today," he said to a crowd of several thousand whom he addressed from the balcony of his hotel, "that whatever it says lo one portion of the American peo ple it is going to say to all Ameri ca.' I know that there is not a man here who docs not rejoice in Amer ican solidarity and nationality and who does not want it preserved." I Without alluding directly to the in ternational problems that must be solved by his administration, Mr. Harding stressed the necessity of preserving nationality in all three of his addresses, declaring before the Chamber of Commerce that he would "rather boast of being an American citizen than a potentate anywhere else in the world." "If I am to be the head of jour government," he continued, "as I expect to be a week from today, I want to know you arid I want you lo know me, so that you and I can ja'm together in -working for our common country. I believe with all my heart that we have a common aspiration in the preservation of our nationality and I want Florida to join Ohio in carrying out that aspi raton." In hisv address from the hotel bal cony, the president-elect asserted his belief in "100 per cent Americanism" and sketched this to be the supreme purpose of his administration. "If there is one thing more in my heart than another tt is that at the end Laf the coming administration there remains the America we inherited from the fathers without the sur render of a single part. I wish for your America a soul truly Amer ican." Hamon Estate Starts Suit for Insurance Ardmore. Okl., Feb. 26. In a suit filed in district court here by at torneys for Frank L. Ketch, ad ministrator of the Hamon estate, against the Aetna Life Insurance company of Hartford, Conn., seeking recovery of $100,000 in life insurance, it is alleged that Jake L. Hamon's death resulted from a wound "in flicted - by means of an automatic pistol in "the hands of Clara Smith Hamon." The allegation relative to the cause of Mr. Hamon's death was consid ered here as the first indication of the position the Hamon estate will take in the. trial here of Clara Smith Hamon on March ,10. She is now at liberty under bond; charged with the murder of Mr. Hamon, who was republican national committeeman from Oklahoma and an oil magnate.
