BY RAYMOND CLAPPER.


Marion, Ohio, Nov. 4.-President-
elect Harding was making plans for
his southern vacation trip today. He
expects to leave Marion early Satur-
day, arriving at Point Isabel, Texas,
Monday morning.
A flood of requests has reached
Harding asking him to make speeches
en- route. 1t is probable he will be
unable to avoid a number of talks but
they will be of informal nature rather
than political.
Difficulty is being experienced in ar
ranging a sailing schedule for the
Panama portion of the trip. Several
private yachts have been offered the
presldent-elect, but he probably will
sail on a regular passenger steamer.
Will Avoid Washington.
Every effort will be made by Presi
dent-elect Harding to avoid appearing
in Washington until he goes there

may find it necessary to spend a few
Gays tnere, however, clearing out his

Wipe Out SectionaIism.
one of the two avowed aims of the
Harding administration will be the
r1nal wlping out of sectionaIism. Thru
out MS campaign he has pledged this
and his first authorized utterance
on political issues since the election
was on the same squestion.
This was in a form of statement
authorized by the president elect and
sent by G.. H. Van Fleet, managing
editor of the Marion Star, Harding's
newspaper, to ]. E. Brown, city editor
or the New Orleans States, in reply to
a message of congratulations
Senator Harding asked our office
| to utter his most grateful apprecia-
ton of the fine vote given him in
Louisiana, particularly as it manifests
a growing belief in the Republican
position. He asks me to say to you

PLENTY OF PULLMAN CARS
Shortage Docs Not Affect Supply of
Sleeping Cars.

The car shortage hasn't hit the
sleeping car supply as seriously as it
mas other lines of transportation, ac-
cording to passenger officials Of the
Rock Island and the Santa Fe.
Altho there was a shortage a few
months ago, the roads are able now to
get all the sleeping cars they need for
the heavy passenger traffic which is
loading the roads down.
I'VE are beginning to get new cars,
indicating that their construction has
begun again since the war" said J. M.
Council, general passenger agent for
the Santa Fe. For some time we
were rather hard put to it to get cars
for the people who wanted to ride, but
now we are managing to get all that
we need"
I'VE have plenty of sleeping cars,
but we do need more coaches. We
haven't nearly as many day coaches
passenger agent for the Rock Island.
Passenger agents and officials be-
lieve that the tourist traffic is start
ing earlier and bids fair to be heavier
this year, than ever before, and that
local passenger traffic is keeping up
with it.
TWO sections of Santa Fe train No.
8, the California Limited, will be run
every day between now and November
IA, when the new Santa Fe trains goes
on, and on several days arrangements
have been made for the running of
third section.
With the addition of the new train
the Santa Fe will have five trains to
California each day. When neces-
sary, extra sections will be added to
those trains.
1--WE will have to wait and see how
the traffic runs before we decide
about the extra sections" said Mr..
Connell this morning.

Did Not Help Cox.
Bryan, explaining why he didn't
campaign for Governor Cox, said, it
was because Cox evaded the liquor
issue.
THE VETS" he said, were willing
to concede the presidents platform for
a candidate" said Bryan IN analyzing
the causes of the Democrats defeat.
THEY went before the country under
a false flag.
Now that defeat has overwhelmed
the Democratic party, its leaders must
plan for the next campaign by formu-
lating plans for protection of the peo-
pie against exploitation.
"In order that this may be worked
out at once, the treaty and the United
States part in the worlds part in
worlds peace must be settled at once
so that the decks can be cleared for
world reform"
Bryan then declared this could be
accomplished by the immediate resig-
nation of President Wilson. followed
by that of Marshalrs and Harding's
succession to the presidency.
The prohibition election results
from Scotland and England enthused
Byran.
That's doing well for beginning"
he said. 1T is much better than we
did at the start"

Marshall, Bryan said, should appoint
President-elect Harding as secretary
of state, and then also resign when
congress meets in December. in order
to allow Harding to start carrying out
his program Immediately.
The laws regulating succession to
the presidency would put Harding in

the election would show such a confer

would have to change its program.
THE Democratic party is and has
been a progressive party" he said.
