Travelling by motor over the best of
Maryland's roads. and with two cars
filled with newspaper men following
him. Senator Warren G. Harding. re-
publican presidential candidate, and
Mrs: Harding got as far as Cumber-
land last night en- route to the Hard

Plans OF the. candidate called for

town today and an all-day run that
would carry the party well into
Ohio. Marion is expected to be
reached tomorrow about midday.

ton has been planned by the sena-

The start was made from Washing
ton early yesterday afternoon in time
to make the 140-mile run to Cumber-
land before darkness. Last-minute
preparations delayed the departure
from the Wyoming avenue home.
Odds and ends of business kept Mr..
Harding at his ofice until II o'clock.

SO many chores unfinished that
another two hours were. lost.
Mrs. Harding was Ready. ~.t-
But Mrs. Harding was ready early.
An hour before the start she APP

wearing her hat and veil-to admon-

newspaper correspondents who ac-
companied him:

Movie camera men and other pho
to record the departure. The usual
curious neighbors were not in sight.
Mr.. Harding, who was taking a dry
smoke" chatted with the newspaper
men while the photographers were
taking a shot" at him. Incidentally,
he passed out cigars-stogies-by the
handful. and there was some more
dry smoking.
An hour later all preparations were
complete and Mrs. Harding stepped
from the back door into the automo-
bile. which had been waiting for some
the house. Mrs. Harding chatted
with Harriet Jefferies. the negro
cook at the siamese legation next
II hope you come back the first
lady of the land" said the old
negress.
"If don't 1t won't be my fault"
answered Mrs. Harding.
well, we're all going to push YOU"
rejoined the neighborly cook.
"God Bless You.o Says Inex.
Just as the party was drawing away
from the house Inez McWhorter, the
Hardings' negro cook, fastened into
the driveway from around a corner
of the house. laden with many bum
dies. She was on her way to the
railroad station and, bidding farewell
to Mrs. Harding, said:
May the Lord bless you all through
all your trip"
He'd better bless you," replied Mrs.
Harding. laughing; you need 1t. too"
Once outside the city limits, the
! senator's car was speeded up, with
the two machines bearing the cor
respondents keeping closely behind.
The itinerary of the trip was kept
secret in an effort to avoid crowds.
Besides the correspondents, the
senator and Mrs. Harding were ac-
companied by a secret service man.
The household help and the senator's
half score of Office employees left
later in the afternoon by rail for
Marion.

The selection of the senator from
Ohio at Chicago as standard bearer
Of the republican party caused little
or no comment among the men who

PROTESTS INVITED
BY coming BOARD
Property Owners Also Told
Streets Are to Be Called
First Commercial"

The coming commission expects
| some property owners on streets
which have been tentatively desig-
mated for commercial purposes to
protest. In anticipation Of these pro-
tests the commission has asked those
property owners to consider the three
following arguments:
'Too great reduction of first COM
mercial districts will unduly enhance
the value of the remaining districts.
While future extens ionS are possible,
yet they will require a fairly unanf-
nous desire on the part of the prop
erty owners affected:
AT some future time these streets
are certain to become first COM
mercial. People who desire to buy
on account of their eventual en-
hancement in value. should know
where the business is to be located
while people who desire quiet homes
of the main thoroughfares should be
given sumo assurance of future protec-

PREPARATION WORK
BEGUN IN AUSTRIA
BY ALLIED BOARD
Sir William Goode and
Eighteen Delegates Open
ina Offices in Vienna.

Daily News. Copyright, 1920.

VIENNA, July Sir William Goode.
president of the Austrian section of the
reparations commission, is in Vienna

of $50 representing nine great European
powers. Offices are being prepared in
the War Ministry building.
America is represented on the COM
mission by Col Smith and Secretary
Bate.
The presence of the commission is one
Of the greatest Importance. Hitherto,
among other causes. the reconstruction
of the states has been inpeded by the
uncertainty as to the amount Of the
debt and Of the national resources. How
can one pay IL one does not know the
sum demanded and how can one raise
funds If one does not know what the
resources are. Austria is insolvent and
the commission constitutes the receiver.
Faces Heavy Task.
before him He is asked to apply peace
terms which impractical men formed
he is asked to apply decisions made for
old conditions, and he is asked to en-
courage peace and order where hate and
jealousy reign. The peace-makers, say
critics, did not overlook one chance to
make small and big wars possible. Sir
William arrives at moment when
weak government permits the socialists
and communists to carry out a stupid
and unjust boycott against Hungary.
Thus Goodies granary is lost to him.
Silesia and .Teschen are in an up
roar and the coal supply is threatened
Conditions are more than unstable
Where will he got credit? With food.

the states succeeding the old dual
monarchy to get on their feet and in
time they might be able to make good
the damage they inflicted during the
war. The &c. c." or control commits
sion has large powers to control
finances. 1t can supervise the customs,
revenues. payments; loan flotations and
state undertakings. He who controls
the purse strings controls the govern
ment
Success Depends on Spirit.
It is not impossible that the repara-
tons commission will some day direct
the Austrian state through a govern
ment Of officials. The success OF the
control commission depends upon the
spirit with which the work is under
taken. II the plan is to get blood from
a turnip the commission will fail II
the plan is, first, to aid in resuscitation,
then success is possible. There is rea-
son to believe that the commission
comes with the kindest intentions Sir
William Goode is about the best man
that could have been chosen for the
work. With order restored he can as
sist materially in the reconstruction Of
the country.
