&c Campaign to Put Harding
Over.
Chicago, June 13..-Campaign man
ayers for Senator Warren G. Hard
ing of Ohio, who was made the presi-
Dental nominee by the republican
national convention Saturday night,
said today no time would be lost in
getting things under way. Harry M.
Dougherty, director of Harding's pre-
convention campaign requested the
national committee to stake prompt,
snappy and energetic action" in plac-
ing the merits of the republican is
sues before the voters of the country.
Party managers, it was said, would
not wait until Senator Harding and
Governor Calvin Coolidge of Massa-
chusetts are officially notified of their
nomination, but plan to start the cam
paign soon after the democratic con-
vention is held.
Will H.Hays, reelected chairman
by the new national committee, was
out of town today resting after his
strenuous days during the conven-
ton. Members of the new executive
committee of whom seven will be wo-
men, will be named without delay by
Chairman Hays. A vice-chairman OF
the executive committee, who will be
a woman, will be selected at the time
the committee is announced.
A resolution passed in the final
minutes of the convention forecasts
change in the representation of the
republican party form the southern
states at future national conventions.
The resolutions introduced by for
mer Congressman Paul Rowland of
Ohio, provides that the apportion-
ment of delegates to conventions
shall be in proportion to the republi-
can votes cast in the States.
The Resolutions
Testimony before the national com
mittee ten days ago in its examina-
ton of claims of contesting delega-
tions frc several southern states
showed certain delegates represented
only small constituency as COM
pared to delegates from other sec
tions of the country. The resolution
which was passed unanimously not
withstanding the protests of dele
gates from Louisiana, Alabama and
Texas, provides "that in order to ef-
feet proper and necessary changes
in the apportionment of delegates in
proportion to the republican votes
actually cast at general elections
throughout the various states land in
order to inspire greater effort to
elect and maintain substantial party
organizations in all the states, the ma
tional committee, notwithstanding
any rule heretofore adopted is di-
rected within IL months to adopt
an equitable basis of representation
in future national conventions. The
basis shall be set forth in the call for
the next convention and be binding
upon all other future conventions un-
til otherwise ordered"
About the time party managers be-
gin their real activities the senate
committee investigating campaign
funds will resume hearings, holding
its first session in Chicago July z.
While the committee has been author
lied to extend it's investigation, Sem
ator Kenyon, it's chairman, said no
plans had yet been made to inquire
into campaign funds up to election
day,

The republican presidential noml-
nee will become the centre of the
campaign of the national woman's
party to bring about ratification OF
the Federal suffrage constitutional
amendment, according to a state
ment issued by suffrage leaders. A
large delegation of women from
many states, it was announced, will
await upon Senator Harding and ask
him to insist upon republican action
to secure the thirty-sixth states for
ratification.
"Our campaign against republican
obstruction to suffrage is not over" )"

Delegates and visitors attracted to
Chicago by the National convention

made. Today few delegates were
here and virtually no party leaders.
Senator Harding left for Washing

WILSON AND ARMENIA-WHO

Everybody knows the world club is

Uncle Ted's comment as he sat read

"What do you mean by that?"
spoke up Jack who was playing with
a puzzle on the library table.
"Hello, Jack. 1 didn't know you

about some of the results of President
Wilson'S request to Congress- to give
him power to accept what is called
mandate for Armenia. That is, he
wants Congress to give him the right
to tell Armenia that the United States
will look after that country
"Has Congress given him the
right?" asked Jack.
"Not yet, Jack, and don't believe
they will. To get back to the begin
ming, some time ago the allies asked
Mr.. Wilson to decide the question of
the boundaries between Armenia and
Turkey He has accepted that invita-
ton and by accepting it 7 think he
has done something unwise. In the
first place the people of the Unite:
States didn't elect Woodrow Wilson
president so that he could fix the land

horses the Arabs of the desert should
own. There may not be anything IN

''Why do you say that?' asked
Ruth, who had been listening intcnt'v-
"Bcrrusc Ruth, later on it might
mean getting the United States INTO a
lot of trouble. 1t is getting back 10
the old world club plan again. sup

the boundaries should be, Turkey

of NV land and Armenia might say.

derstood or even thought by these
countries that the boundaries were
made by Mr.. Wilson as President of
the United States the young men OF
this country might have to risk their
lives fighting in the mountains OF
Armenia about something which is
none of our business. In other words,
if after these boundaries are fixed by
Mr.. Wilson and there is any fighting
to be done those who asked him to fix
the boundaries should also ask him
ito do the fighting and not expect the
Young men of the United States to do
it.

of the President that Congress give

DURING 1919 40 Result Of Firss-

10 Be Issued for Posting.

Special to Times Republican
Des Moines. March 11.-There Is
an increasing number Of deaths as
well as serious fires due, to gaso-
lene. state Fire Marshal j. A. Tracy
reports. In his work tracing down
the origin of fires and keeping a
record of fatal accidents from burn
ing he states that 1t is apparent the
more general use Of gasolene Is max
ing people carless in handling 1t with
the result that lives and property pay
the penalty.
During 1919 there were 12s deaths
reported in lows as the direct result
of fires. There were twenty-five
women and thirty EIGHT children IN
Guided in these fatalities. In thirty
two cases fatal to life gasolene or
coal oil was involved In eight cases
children were burned to death play
ing with matches and in twelve cases
children were burned to death on ac-
count of bonfire carelessness. In
seventeen cases women died as the
result of fires due to carelessness In
handling stoves. In addition to those
burned to death several cases We're
reported where death was caused by
inhaling gas from automobile ex-
haust. Fifty four deaths resulted
from explosions in garages and mills.
Asphyxiation from inhaling auto
gas fumes is by no means uncom-
mon. Marshal Tracy reports 1t is a
dangerous thing for a man to work
on his car in a small -elosed garage
while the engine is running because
of these fumes, he states.
To Issue Warnings.
Marshal Tracy Is now collecting
several items which have appeared in
newspapers telling Of deaths caused
by carelessness in the use of gaso-
lene. He probably will send out some
printed matter on this subject in q
short time and may have some
posters made showing prints Of head
lines telling Of these fatalities. These
will be displayed In conspicuous
places as warning against careless
ness with this highly infiammable
substance. f.
The state IRE marshars depart
ment has by,no means been able 70
collect all the data on this class 'of
fires as it has no way Of checking
up on these matters so that the total
figures Of fatalities from these causes
would amount to much more than is
shown in the department reports,
Marshal Tracy states that one gal
Ion of gasolene vaporized has an ex-
plosive power equal to eighty three
pounds Of dynamite. The greatest
danger now that ga solene is so uni
versaliy used. Marshal Tracy states,
is carelessness.
