President-Elect Makes Plea for
All Parties to Preserve
Solidity of Nation.-
Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 26. 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

the winding up of its general banking
relations with other banks, firms and
individuals.
"Two election laws, which will
make it possible for the voters of the
state, whenthey deem it best, to sep
arate state, federal and county po
litical affairs."
According to the Fargo-Forum, in
dependent newspaper, the state offi
cials against whom the recall will be
decided arc:
Gov. Lynn J. Frazier; William
