Wife of g. O. p Candidate Pleasing in Her MmnersAHalt
Happy and Half Sad at Husbands Nomination

Washington. June 14.-And a few
DAYS ago she said it would be a tragedy
if he got it.
While the wives OF other candidates
hoped for the best. Mrs. Warren Hard
ing had been confiding to her friends
that she wanted Warren to win be-
cause he wants to. but for no other
reason" and now that he has won, she
is half happy, and half sad Sad be-
cause the task ahead of him is such a
big one. one so fraught with serious
responsibility. but she says happily
''he is the greatest man in the world.
and there is not anything he cannot do.
They told me here in Washington.
and Mrs. Harding laughed nervously,
that my husband should be able to
get anything he wants with that smile
of his. And then he knows how TO differ
with people without offending them,
she went on. "Oh. | know you think
I'm boasting, but | have only one fad,
the only fad | have had for the last
twenty-six years, and that is my hus-
band.

Mrs. Harding is the only candidates s
wife who went more than half way to
meet newspaper reporters in Chicago,
not that she wanted to be talked about
in print, but she was not afraid of
them. In fact, she says the Washing
ton newspaper women are her friends,
because she has always helped them
by giving them tips on stories whenever
she could, And not one of them ever

WORLDWIDE UNION
I, URGED BY BR|TON
International Organization Ad-
vocated to Prevent An
other War
WARNS AGAINST RADICALS S
BY the Associated Press

Montreal. June 1d.-Intcrnational
organization Of the worlds union
workers to further their aims and pre- .
vent another world war was advocated
by J. w. Ogden, fraternal delegate of
the British Trade Union Congress, in an
address here today before the American
Federation of Labor.
Mr.. Ogden. however, warned the
federation that it must ignore any ''in e
ternationale" similar to that formed in
Russia and other countries.
'"The only international we can
recognize IL one that is formed on a
right. proper and legal basis. =" he
added. The only way we will be able
to prevent useless conflict is by linking
the workers of the world into a great
international organization.
The spirit of organization is sweep
ing England and the "nonunionist Is
almost extinct" in that country. Mr..
Ogden asserted. He predicted that tho
British congress would have member
ship of 5000. 900 by next August. an
increase of 600 900 members in twelve
months.
British workers are constantly fight
ing the high cost of living. Mr.. Ogden
said, adding that they had assured the
government if it would smash prices
and DrOtlteerlng the WORKERS WOuIu ASH
no further wage advances and wage
will attain their proper stability.
'"While we are seriously complaining
Of the high cost Of living in England
It is not any higher than in Montreal,
he added.
Mr.. Ogden asserted that the Labor
party in England was the second in
power. being Outstripped bv the Coali
tion party. which is now thrcotcncd
by the great Labor party
T. G. Cashen. of Cleveland, was given
unanimous consent to introduce rcso
luton, on behalf of the 1nternationa
Switchmen's Union, Condemning centra
labor bodies which recently aided the
"unauthorized" railroad strike in the
United States. The resolution was re-
ferred to committee.
]. A. McCleland. fratcrnal delegate
from the Trades and Labor Congress OF
Canada. urged the federation to appoint
n committee to investigate the Catholic
labor union movement and take steps to
end its activities in Canada. This union,
which has been in existence about ten
years, he asserted, is opposed to any
international organization and has been
"organized labors greatest enemy in
Canada.
In outlining the growth Of the labor
party in Canada. Mr.. Met leland said

RESULTS Of PRAYER
CIRCLES REVIEWED
Episcopal Rector Contrasts
Spiritual Healing With
Christian Science
OPEN.AIR MEETING HELD

The results obtained by prayer cir
cles which have been formed in Penn
sylvania to pray for those who are i'll
were reviewed by the Rev. DIR. George
Lynde Richardson. vicar of the Dio-
cesan Church of st. Mary at an open
aig service on the Parkway yesterday
afternoon. The service was conducted
on the site which will be occupied by
the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral at
Twenty third street.
Some people say this spiritual heal
ing is like Christian Science, or the
mental healing performed under the
name of New ThOhght I wish to say
here today that spiritual healing is not
like either. Christian Science and New
Thought SAY there is no such thing as
pain or evil or disease. On the other
hand. tho Church Of Jesus Christ rec
oGnizes that these things exist in the
world
"Chrstian Science and the other
movements say YOU do not need a doctor
when you are i'll. and all that Is nccPs-
sary to cure You is TO read Mrs. Eddy's
book. The Church of Jesus Christ says
that is nonsense. It says there is a
time when the doctor can help the in
dividual. but il also says that the doc
tor needs tho help OF God in order to
do his work WE'LL
THE movements I have named say
You don't need baptism. or confirma-
ton. or the Holy Communion. The
church says If you don't use these sac
ramonts Won are missing the very bene-
fits God intended for His people.
'Gour body must 'be right; your
mind must he right; but you must also
hav" your spirit right. When your
spirit is right your mind and your body
will soon fall into line"
Those who desire to pray for loved
ones meet in church one evening a
week. he said. and whenever possible
the sick person is brought to the service.
The clergyman told how the sick pco-
pie are brought to the altar and kneel
before it. while their friends and the
rest OF tho congregation pray for them
