Senator Warren G.. Harding, Of
Ohio was nominated for pres!
dent today by the republican ma

ballot, and Governor Calvin Cool-

mated for vice president.
Senator Warren G. Harding Of
Ohio, was nominated for the presi.
dency late today, in the republl-
can national convention on the
tenth ballot, receiving fraction
over $40 votes.
In a dramatic session IN which
Governor Lowden of Illinois, released
all his friends, his delegates turned
to Harding in rapid succession.
The Harding landslide which start
ed with a gentle movement early in
the morning, steadily and surely
grew and resisted all attempts Of the
Wood and Lowden people to check.
Immediately after Senator Hard
ing's nomination was a fact, 1t was
decided to attempt to have n brief
recess on the floor with the delegates
remaining, so a choice could be de-
cided upon for second place and
business of the convention ended to-
night Senator Harding was in an
ante-room nearby while the conven-
tion was casting the ballot, which
made him the republican nominee. For
some time he chatted there with Gov
ernor Lowden, who had given up
the fight n few minutes before. Mrs.
Harding also was with him. Colonel
Proctor. General Woods manager,
and others visited Senator Harding.
and Governor Lowden. The conven'
ton was noisily making history only
a short distance away.

his hotel with Mrs Harding, and an.

Bedlam Cut Loose
It was just about the moment that
Governor Sproul in person In his
seat on the floor was casting the 60
votes from Pennsylvania, which ran
Harding's total over 500 and gave
him the nomination. AS the conven-
tion realized that a nomination had
been made, bedlam cut loose and there
was an unrestrained demonstration
for several minutes. When quiet was
restored the calling Of the roll was
continued, Contrary to expectations,
many Of the remaining states held
their original formation giving com.
plimentary or farewell votes to fav.
orite sons, or men whom they had
been supporting.
Deadlock Fatal to Favorites
Warren G. Harding, United States

AT GOVERNMENT EXPENSE.
Soldiers Bodies to Be Brought
From France on Relatives Request.

According to a bulletin issued by the
War Department 1t Is the policy OF the
department to return the bodies OF the
American dead in Europe to their homes
| in this country when relatives request
that it be done, and that the entire ex-
pense of transportation will be borne by
the government. In cases where the
relatives have SO desired. the bodies Of
the deceased soldiers will be permanent
I ~ inferred in Europe in the Suresnes
cemetery, near Paris, or in other ceme-
teries not yet established. The War De-
partment also will renter the bodies
of all deceased soldiers concerning whose
disposition no specific request is made
in permanent cemeteries in France. The
expenses incurred in burying the bodies
in these permanent cemeteries in France
and the expenses In connection with
their future maintenance will be borne
altogether by the government. Rela-
tives Of the soldiers buried IN one OF
these permanent cemeteries VIII not be
subjected to any expense whatever in
relation to the transfer or future care Of
these graves
Some relatives insist upon having the
bodies Of their dead remain whore they
were first buried. The decision adopted
by the War Department places the re-
sponsibility for the concession and fu-
ture maintenance OF the graves tn
remaining scattered throughout France
and England upon the relatives of the
deceased. It is suggested that the bet
ter plan would be for the relatives Of the
deceased to permit the War Depart
ment to place these bodies at its ex-
pense In permanent cemeteries in
eminent control and maintenance. with
out there being anv expense whatever
attaching to the relatives Of the soldier
dead. .s-s
