Republican National Chairman

among the Republicans OF the

He held a joint conference today
with Representative MondIl, Of
Wyomig, tn new floor leader, and
Speaker-elect GiHett. Mr.. MondelI
is a staunch supporter Of the Mann
faction. while Mr.. Gillett has an
nounced that he will assist in the
campaign against domeinatiun OF the
House by the reactionaries.
The best information he could
get was that present indications
were that there could be no settle
ment except by vote OF the caucus.
ihe fight is on to a finish, the anti
Mann forces have decreed.
Chairman Hays has taken the posi-
ton that the controversy Is no affair
of his. He has told. Representatives
on both sides that he would not bring
to bear any pressure for A compro-
mise or other agreement 1t is known.
however. that he has pointed out the
necessity OF harmony and unity OF

Congress during the next two years.

conference with Mr. Mondell and Nj
Gillctt. It is understood that he also
let it be known that the leaders OF
the party outside OF Congress would
be Eratiied to see the existing dif-
ferences composed.
The chairman talked with other Re
publican members aligned with both
factions. and while it is declared that
he studiously avoided any action or
expression that might be interpreted
as placing him in the attitude Of sup
porting either faction. the Mann ad-
hSrcnts gained the impression that he
was somewhat out or paticnC" with
the insurgents.

LET FOCH DO It,
SAYS SENATOR
Harding Suggests General
Write Peace Treaty as
He Did Armistice.

The suggestion that Gen. Foch
would write the peace treaty and
wind it up in a hurry as he did the
armistiCe terms was advanced yes
terday by Senator Warren G. Hard
ing. of Ohio. Gen. Foch could be
depended upon. the Senator said. to
guard the security of the United
States as well as that of France and
Great Britain.
Senator Harding criticised the de-
lay at the Peace Conference and
declared that it has brought the al
lies apparently to the point of
recognizing Bolshevism.
Not only is Bolshevist destruc-
tiveness to be countenanced in fall
len Russia" he added. but the
world will awaken pretty soon to
the fact that Germany is dominant
there and has expanded infinitely
more through revolution and delay
than 1t was expected to accomplish
by force of arms"
Dangerous Business.
Senator Harding declared that il Is
a dangerous business to trade on our
position as a world creditor and to
force Europe and America into hasty
compact to establish world iuterna-
tionalism."
Declaring that he will make no
speeches on the league OF nations un-
til he knows definitely what the pro-
posaI is, Senator Harding said that
tho United States viii accept nothing
which puts an end to national aspira-
tons; neither will any OF the other
powers represented in the Peace Con-
ference. he said. The Senator said it
would be easy for the conference to
provide for a clear and unmistakable
OF international law and
c c<nmit all the allied nations to its
enforcement

Tire Tape Very Useful.

Tire tape is to the autOmObilist
what a bandage is to a Red Cross
nurse, and a man who drives a car
would rs soon think of leaving it
out of his tool box as q Red Cross
nurse weuld think of leaving a
bandage out of her first-aid kit.
The United States Tire company
advises all its patrons to include q
roll of it's tape in their equipment.
Its uses are innumerable. 1t is
most frequently used to reinforce
bad spots caused by blOw-Outs

for winding 'leaky" electric wires

Twelve years ago the gasoline
business in Granada was handled
exclusively by the Granada Ele-
vatOr The reason for this was
that the sales were so small and
the evaporation so great that the
elevator, which opcated a gas en-
gine, was the only firm in town
that could handle gasoline in bar
rel lots at a profit. Today there
are two large wholesale houses
and one Of them, The Rhodes Oil
Co, unloaded two large tank cars
of gasoline this week.

RATS AND MICE ExTERMIN.Tr,
1t Was Great Fun for the o,nh.,. and They Were Paid in the
 Bargain.

Rats and mice, enemies of mank,raI everywhere, and one of the most uo| tent agencies of destruction anywhere have been banished from the orpbanl age at Oxford N. c.
 This spring they appeared in V, \ numbers-little brown mice and lis gray rats. They gnawed their way into the cupboards, and were playing havoc with the grain in the barn. Traps they avoided and the usual pol sons they spurned.
 1t was just about this time that | War Savings Society was organized in the orphange, but not vast nun. Der of Thrift Stamps were bought because the inmates were not bur. dened with an overplus of money.
 But the superintendent had an .dea He had two ideas. He wanted to get rid of the pests and he wanted his charges to acquire habits of thrift. Therefore he declared war on the yer. min.
 For every casualty in the ratdom or mousedom he offered bounty of one cent per head. And the little boys got busy and the little girls oyercame their aversion for the pestiferous TO- dents, and war of extermination was declared.
 Now the orphanage at Oxford is freed from the pests, and the little boys and girls are all creditors Of Uncle Sam and are piling up a say ings account that will help to mare them useful men and women when they depart from the orphanage to take their places inthe work-a-day world
