Neighborhood Govt
 Success Report Says

NEW YORK. July 17.-Results achieved in the first three years ex- pertinent in neighborhood government conducted by the national social unit organization in Cincinnati. were sum- marized in a statement made public here today by Wilbur C. Phillips, ex- ecutive of the organization.
 The experiment embraced two prin- ciples, the statement explained, crea- tion of 8 neighborhood council of rep resentatives elected oy residents of blocks of 100 families each. and crea- tion of an advisory board of represen- tatives elected by members of occupa tional groups.
 The chief lessons learned. the state ment said, are increased efficiency in social service achieved through centralization. which has amounted in the field of public health alone to from 300 to 1900 per cent, the increased participation in the affairs of the neighborhood on the part of the peo- pie, the value of supplementing public effort with the assistance of the mem bers of technical groups and the growth of the spirit of true neighbor- HneSs."

 ON BOARD STEAM YACHT VIC TORIA. July 17.-Sir Thomas Lipton had no comment to make tonight on the incident at the first stake buoy where his green hulled Shamrock, on almost even terms with the Resolute up to that point, suddenly fell behind more than 40 minutes and never again was within hailing distance of the cup defender. The Irish baronet showed no sign of Encouragement. He sent his hundred and more guests ashore tonight with a cheery wovd for every body and flow of witty stories that whiled away the time on the road home from the course. but he hardly mentioned the cup races.
 However Sir Thomas and his closest practical advisers on yachting matters were in deep conference on the bridge while the Shamrock still battled to round the first stake buoy and follow the ResoIute down the next leg.
 On the Victoria most of the guests gave up close watch of the yachts be- fore the first of them came about to beat up to the distant marker buoy. They watched, instead, the gamboling of the navy "blimp" that scared se renely overhe aI from start to finish. The New York police band aboard the police boat also furnished diverson with old time tunes and the spreading gallery of liners, yachts, tugs, ex- cursion steamers and craft of all types that could sail or steam was a never ending source of interest.
 But as the pair rounded for what seemed sure to be the last hitch to clear the buoy and the Shamrock had made noticeable gain in the tack and climb against the wind a shout of Shamrock leads!" went up on the Vic toria. It was not true, but 1t showed how the land lubbers aboard saw the thing

WHEAT, CORN AND OATS ALL SUFFER
 BY CURED BUYING
Republican A. p. Leased wireI

CHICAGO, July 17-Trading in wheat did not show much activity to- day. The weakness in the Northwest curbed the buying power and caused prices to break sharply. At the close, wheat showed a net loss of cents. compared with yesterdays close. with final prices ranging from 31a to 6 cents under initial quotations, with Decem- Der $2.53 and March $2.5S. Corn was off 1A to 1Ac, and oats were 1s 6 Hc lower. Provisions showed substantial gains.
 The wheat market started reason ably steady owing to spreading opera tions. but as whole the market ex- hibited weak tone. Commission houses were mainly on the selling side and this caused a sharp break iii prices. Country offerings of wheat to arrive were reported heavy and liberal purchases to arrive were reported by many of the big elevator concerns Claims of black rust damage received by some houses were offset by the weakness in the Northwest markets. There was little speculative activity and the lack of buying power was a depressing factor.
 There was mixed sentiment with some disposition shown to cover short in corn on account of the big decline and relatively low temperature. The market, after a higher opening due to scattered buying. broke sharply on commission house and stop order sell ing. Toward the close there was a rally which carried the market close to the first quotation of the day.
 Oats showed a firm undertone with a good class of commission house buy ing, the prices holding within a rela- lively narrow range.
 Provisions were firmer because of a 10 to 15 cent advance in hogs. The trade was light. the feature being the buying of lard by leading packer.

FROM AIR, LAND AND SEA, 4. ?. GIVES ITS
 READERS RACE DOPE
Republican A. p. Leased WireI


 NEW YORK, July 17-With the Americas cup races of 1920 has come an innovation in newspaper report ing.
 Whereas r years ago, when the last international yatching classic was held, The Associated Press covered the event from ship and shore, this year it is reporting the races from land sea and air, by wireless telephone and land wire.
 This, according to aircraft experts, is virtually the first time that an i'm portant event has actually been record ed from a seaplane, although planes recently have been employed to rush reporters to the scene of action or to relay stories and pictures to news paper offices.
 Using the Rockaway naval air sta- tion as a base, The Associated Press assigned two men to the seaplane it had chartered. One flew over the race. viewed preparations for the start, and returned to telephone descriptive story to the New York office. The other stepped into the plane and cov- cred the start and telephoned his story while his companion was up in the air again, viewing the finish.
 Land telephone was used because, with the air filled with wireless mes sages, it was considered quicker than employing wireless telephone or teie- graph.
 Meanwhile, staff men aboard naval destroyers were gathering news along the course and flashing bulletins by wireless Trained observers at Nave sink. Highlands. Rockaway and Long Branch sent added facts by land wire. while aboard the steam yacht Victoria, a staff man was with Sir Thomas Lip tons party.

HARDING SPEECH
 OF ACCEPTANCE
 GOES TO PRESS
c. o. P. Nominee Completes Laborious Task of Writ ing Address = Is Longer Than at First Planned Soon to Be Mailed Over Country
rRepublican A. p. Leased wIreJ

MARION, Ohio, July 17-Senator Harding gave his speech of acceptance it's final polishing tonight and then prepared for a day of complete rest from the arduous task of composition which has occupied his attention all most exclusively for week.
 He planned to spend tomorrow very quietly and in the early days of the coming week to take more time for recrea tion. Since he began work on scarcely at all. He said tonight he was feeling tired and cross' from want of exercise.
 Today, the senator worked again as in the years gone by in close co-opera- ton with the composing room of his newspaper the Marion Star, where the speech was put into type for printing the advance copies that will be dis tributed to the press. A relay of mes sengerS carried copy and proofs be- tween the newspaper office and the senator's residence and once he paid a visit of inspection to his compost tors.
 Gives Stand On Campaign Issues
 The speech, which will be delivered here next Thursday at the formal notification of his nomination for the presidency, exceeds in length the can didate's expectation and will run well beyond the four column limit he orig inally fixed. It has been prepared with particular care because he has endeavored to have it express com prehensively his stand on all of the important issues.
 The meeting tomorrow between Governor Cox and President Wilson was expected by local Harding man agers to put the spotlight again on the league of nations and perhaps to show up more clearly what lines the campaign on that issue will follow.
 Senator Harding himself had noth- ing to say about the conference though he did not conceal his interest in il.
 The Harding partisans argue that the logical result Of the conference will be to develop definitely whether Governor Cox will stand with 1he President regarding the league or with Democratic senators and others in the party who have advised acceptance of the Republican reservations.
 Whatever the decision. the Harding men declare, Lpe result will be to widen the breach oyer the treaty with the Democratic party
