London, June 15.-Soviet Russia

Mr.. karssin, when the matter was
called to his attention is said to have
denied existence of any liability but
intimated that if the force of circum-

the soviet government to accept this
liability then the government would

HARDING WILL
RETAIN PLACE
IN THE SENATE
Republican Nominee for Presi-
dent Can See No Reason for
Resigning Now
QUITS SENATORIAL FIGHT

Washington, June 15.-Warran G.
Harding, the republican presidential
nominee, does not intend to retire
from the United States senate until
his term of office expires on March A.
There is no possibility of that,
Senator Harding declared, "when ask.
ed whether he would resign from the
senate Immediately.
81 do not intend to resign but in
tend to serve my term out. Why
shouldn't II"
do however intend to withdraw
my petition filed last week in con.
gress giving notice that l would be
a candidate for reelection to the SEN
ate. That will be done this week.
Senator Harding's friends explained
that for him to retire from the
senate would endanger the narrow
margin of control held by the re-
publicans there as his retirement
would enable Governor Cox, of Ohiu
to appoint a democrat in his place
They also said that should the sena
tor be elected president in Novem
ber he could continue to serve in the
senate as he would not be inaugural
cd until his term Of senator ex
pired on March 4. .ss
Senator Harding said he hoped to
wind up matters pertaining to his
senatorial duties by the end of the
week and then take a brief vacation
before returning to his home at Mar
ion, O., where he will be formally
notified of his nomination.
The republican nominee, however
does not plan to reach Marion much
before July ii. He had not decide d
today where he would spend his vaca'
tion.

Discussing Nomination, Says
No Third Party Needed
HITS CAPITAL AND LABOR

Superior Wis, June 15.-"I frank
ly regret the choice of the republican
convention as | believe a man who
had been allied with the liberal wing
of the party should have been select
ed," said Senator l. l.. Lenroot, Of
Wisconsin, today, commenting on the
outcome of the convention at Chi
cago last week.
However, Senator Harding is n
most lovable man, of the Mckinley
type and makes friends easily There
Is dissatisfied upon the part Of
progresives but they must choose be-
tween supporting the Republican
ticket and having. another four years
Of Democratic rule and all that it i'm
plies In this situation there can be
but one choice, it seems to me, and
that is to heartily support the re-
publican ticket. Another democratic
victory and the endorsement OF the
Wilson policies would be disastrous
to the nations. a.
Condemns New Party
There is much talk of new party.
It if supported by progressives would
only ensure democratic victory. If
when elected President Harding shall
adopt reactionary policies and be
controlled by the Old Guard l shall
be among the first to join new
political pasty with policies that are
constructively liberal and not destruc-
lively radical.
'The fact is that there is strug-
gle going on today between preda-
tory wealth and branches of organ
ized labor, each seeking special pri-
vileges to the injury of the general
public. We must oppose both and
both must be given to understand
that the interests of all the people
are paramount to those of any class.
No man, no corporation, no organ
ization has any right to anything but
square deal and that all should
have"

GRAIN GRADING
CASE PROCEEDS
IN U. s. COURT
Many Attorneys.4kppearing for
State in Case on Trial in
~ Federal Court
ON THE STAND

Fargo, June 15-J. A .McGovcrn, Of
Fargo, deputy inspector Of grain, was
on the witness stand today in the
United States district court when tria
of the case of the Emdcn Farmers
Elevator company against the Nortl
Dakota grain grading department wa:
resumed.
The ACTION involves the constitution
ality of the North Dakota law, which
the Emden company contends is in
conflict with the federal grain in
spection law.
Application by the Emden company
for removal to the United States was
denied by Judge C. F. Amidon. The
case went on trial yesterday.
Ladd on Stand
DR.. E. F. Ladd, state grain inspCc-
tor, was the first witness on the stand
yesterday. Sveinbjorn Johnson OF
Grand Forks is representing the grain
company, and Albert E. Sheets, Jr., S.
l.. NuchOls of Mandan, and G. e. Owen
of Williston, assistant attorney gcner-
ais, William Lemke and Seth Richard
son of Fargo, the state and defendant
officials The case is expected to re
quire several days in hearing.
Messrs Lemkc and Richardson are
appearing specially for DR.. Ladd.
j, A court OF three federal judges in
St. Paul some time ago granted a
temporary injunction against the
state law. Judge AmidOn later grant
ed a petition of the defendants for an
early hearing on the merits. The
plaintiff company asks that the state
law be declared unconstitutional as
the grades prescribed conflict with
the federal grades. @Hs
~ Federal Grades Not Fair
DR.. Ladd, who was subpoenaed by
William LANCER attorney general,
testified this morning tnat, in his
opinion, the federal grades were not
fair to the North Dakota wheat pro
ducer, and declared that as state
grain inspector and federal inspector
he could enforce both laws without
conflict. He admitted that applicants
for state license were required to
pledge themselves to obey the state
law, and that as chief inspector he
had no practical experience in grad
ing.
DR.. Ladd also admitted that re-
quiring elevators to pay for dockagc
and to hold grain for an indefinite
period at the direction of the producer
we're not provisions of the federal
grain grading law, but asserted the
state lad the right to enforce such
provisions for the protection of the
producers.
That 80 per cent Of the grain raised
in North Dakota was sold outside of
the state under the federal grades
was another admission of DR.. Ladd
He declared however, that he wanted
proof that all grading at the termin-
ais was done by inspectors with fed
eral licenses, adding that, in his opin-
ion. the chambers of commerce also
had inspectors at the terminals.
