BOYS, MEET FARM
LABOR SHORTAGE
Thousands of South Jersey
School Children Making Big

GIRLS, TOO, TAKING PART

GlassbOro, n. j., June 12.-Gaps IN
the ranks of industrial and farm work.
ers in South Jersey are being filled by
the Second line of Defense" repre.
sented BY the thousands of school chil.
dren who are now being released from
the classrooms by the closing of the
schools for the summer. a large pro.
portion of those In the higher grades
of the grammar schools and most all ~
the older boys and girls in the bigb
schools are eager for employment.
Even without the stimulus of a patri.
otic incentive such as existed duriny
the war, the percentage of school bows
and girls who turn their school vaca.
tion to some practical account is or.
pected to be larger than when the war
was on. The demand for labor, espe.
cially in the rural districts, is greater
than during wartimes and the wages
paid are proving an attraction to those
willing to work.
In Gloucester county hundreds Of
boys and girls are working in the
strawberry patches or cherry orchards
picking fruit. Many Of them are max.
ing almost the equivalent of mems
wages by picking berries at the rate Of
five cents a quart. The pea crop /,
now ripening, and this will make a
further demand for the nimble fingered
pickers. A Bridgeton cannery has
asked for fifty boys and girls to work
at stemming Strawberries, the schools
there closing today.
Boys and girls must be at least sir.
teen years old or get working papers in
order to work in the industrial plants.
but that does not prevent hundreds OF
the younger ones from getting healthy
and light employment in the country.
The demand for their services will in.
crease as the season advances and other
crops ripen, as many Of the farmers
say that it will be impossible to secure
the gangs of foreigners from the cities
in sufficient numbers this year to har.
vest all the crops as was the custom
before the war.

the time Charles r. Warren, former
national committeeman from Michi-
gan. was comforting with the New
York delegation and Lowdcn acccssions
were expected.
Michigan's ballot as it stood on the
eighth was 10 for Johnson, 13 for
Wood and for Lowden.
There was little change in New York. s
ballot. There were discussions of a re-
cess until 1 o'clock. and it was under
stood that Ohio. enthusiastic with the
steady acccssions of votes for Harding
was not disposed to let the convention
stop.
Four of the Wood votes went back
to Harding on the ballot restoring his
original thirty nine.
Wyoming cast her entire six votes
for Harding on the eighth. That took
three from Wood and three from Low
den
The all-night conferences among
leaders had put Senator Harding, Of
Chic, at the head of the dark horse
group.
All night long and early this morn
ing the heads OF various groups were
comforting and the trend of most Of
the conferences seemed to be to find
some way to turn Wood and Lowden
strength to Harding.
The leaders. worn and sleepless, were
late in reaching the convention hall,
but the delegates. with their interest
raised to fever heat. came early, hoping
to sec the thing finished that they might
get away for home today.
Urge Harding johnson Ticket
To insure strong re-enforcements from
that direction, some leaders urged dur
ing the night conferences that a ticket
of Harding for President and Johnson
for Vice President be put forward.
There was nothing to indicate that
Senator Johnson would consent.
Governor Coolidge, of Massachusetts,
also was mentioned as a possible run
ming mate for Harding should Senator
Johnson elect to give his support but
not his name to the ticket.
Either of these courses would main
tain the veto power over convention
action. which has been claimed for the
California senator from the beginning
General Wood Acts
General Wood was informed of the
new move. He brought his managers
together during the night and they de-
termined to stick by their guns.
Former Senator Murray Crane was
advised early of the plan. He was
noncommittal and seemed inclined to
await developments.
Arguments used by hackers of the
compromise were that Harding had a
good record. was not involved materially
IN the senatorial campaign expenditures
inquiry and had the confidence of con-
servatiye and progressive interests.
Negotiations between faction leaders
followed separate group councils. They
eliminated in the call of Senator Hard
ing, upon Senator Johnson.

Dy CLINTON w. GmBERT)

dOntinueh from rage ono
Wood. The wisest of them expect the
nomination of Harding in the end. But
they hope out of the inevitable con
fusion and the breakdown of rival forces
that a sudden movement Of votes to
their own candidate may defeat the
hopes Of the senators and result in
Lowden's $ nomination.
The impatience of the delegates and
their desire to get away may cause
accidents to happen and the plans Of
senatorial managers to go askew. 1t
was impossible to work out in the con
ferences of last night any detailed
means of putting Harding over.
The general strategy is clear and the
promoters of Harding are reasonably
confident, but the situation is still in =
tractable At best there are likely to
be number Of ballots and many ma
neuvers before any definite step toward
liarding's nomination is possible. And
in so confused situation anything
may happen.

FOR NEW GERMAN CABINET
Chancellor Mueller Seeks Aid Of
Independent Socialists

London, June 12.-President Ebert
has asked Chancellor Mueller to form a
new cabinet. according to a Berlin dis
patch to the Times.
The chancellor will try to secure the
co operation of the Independent So
cialists in the new government, it is
stated, or otherwise will abandon the
task.
Berlin, June 1.-THE political sit
uatiOn remains so complicated and the
problem of forming a government based
on any possible majority in the new
Reichstag is conditioned upon SO many
uncertain factors that the only positive
fact thus far established is that in a
parliament of 400 members 231 con.
stitute a majority. Even the rashest
political speculator does not venture
to predict where this majority ultimately
will be found.

BORAH IS OPPOSING
WOOD ANDLOWDEN
Refuses to Support Either Of
Two Leading Candidates
if johnson Fails
READY TO CRY CORRUPTION

Chicago, June 12.-Senator Borah, of
Idaho. one of Senator Johnson's most
ardent supporters, announced last night
that he would not support either Low
den or Wood.
"If either of them is nominated" he
declared. "thc issue before the Ameri-
can people will not be on the platform of
the party-it viii be on the issue Of the
corruption of the American people"
Senator Borah expressed his views at
a public meeting of Johnson delegates.
eve have reached time when it is
necessary TO talk frankly, not only with
reference to the situation in the con-
vention here" Senator Borah said,
"but also with reference to what the
situation will be when we leave here
with a candidate nominated and our
platform in our pocket. I'm not here
to crafty personal feeling for or against
any candidate.
Hints at Corruption Charge
From my standpoint the interests
of the Republican party and of this
country are superior to the right of any
individual to hold Office. Our first
object is to nominate Hiram johnson.
because he holds the confidence of the
American people.
II do not pretend to say there are
no other men in the party but John
son who can be elected" he declared.
but ! do say the two leading candi-
&c hAfN h. 4
obtain hundreds of thousands of Re-
publican votes.
'1f either of these two leading can
didates is nominated the issue will be
the corruption of the electorate. There
is no way to avoid the issue. This can
not be blotted out or excused. can
take the records of these two men-and
they are on file officially in Washing
ton--read them to an audience and leave
il to them if these men should 90 into
the election.
Suggests Heckling Wood Men
Suppose | go into that convention
tomorrow and ask from the rostrum for
Mr.. Woods representations to stand up
and tell us what that nomination has
COST" A dozen voices from the audi
ence told him to ''go to it,"
Suppose l should ask the other
gentlemen to stand up" he continued.
and ask how much they have bid
against Wood for the presidency. Rome
was in precisely that situation before its
end"
II have been Republican all my
life. even stayed with Mr.. Taft in
1912. and that's going some. am
willing to support no wany clean man,
and ! will not support any man who
is not clean"
1t was declared positively. however.
that under no circumstances would
johnson make deal with either Wood
or Lowden.
THE statement Of Senator Borah in
regard to his attitude toward Wood
and Lowden can be taken virtually YER
batim as the attitude of Johnson" one
of Senator Johnson's advisers said.
