COMING WEST.

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-Chairmar Will Hays has announced that Sen ator Harding may visit the Pacific coast late this month, with speeches probably in Spokane, Seattle, Port. land, and other Western cities. The senator also is scheduled to make four or five speeches in the Eas. late in October.
 Hays says there will be no ''barn- storming'' in connection with the projected trip, and absolutely nc change in the plans as announced a month ago. Regarding the Western trip, Hays said he did not believe Harding would enter all the states where senatorial contests are to be held. It is even possible, he said, that Harding will not visit either Washington or California, both of which states are regarded as Re publican strongholds and do not re- quire the presence of the presiden- tial candidate. s.s t-.

COX SAYS ALASKA MUST GET CHANCE
 10 FORGE AHEAD

PORTLAND, Sept II. "The time has come to take the restraints off Alaska so as to permit the de- velopment of the resources of that Territory" declared Governor Cox in an address made in this city yes terday noon. This should be done," he explained. under government supervision and in way which will guarantee benefits to the domain and to the American public, and insure forever against the capitaliza- tion of any portion of Alaska's re- sources by selfish and sinister in- terests. It is appalling to think that the population of Alaska has de- creased in the face of the construc- tion of the Government railroad. There is something radically wrong with our treatment of the Territory. This must be remedied. am not sure but @s-a' the public domain of Alaska offers the means, in some measure, of enabling the Govern ment to pay it's debt to American soldiers.
 "No plan of development should be undertaken haphazard. Log rolling methods of securing regula- tions are no longer to be condoned. 4 readjustment of affairs must con- template a readjustment at the head" :.--
 Governor Cox urged the develop ment of the Territory, and was heartily applauded when he declared that "the strait-jacket should be re- moved from Alaska"

MARION, Ohio, Sept. 14.-Ad- dressing delegation of Californi- ans here today, Senator Harding de- clared that the nation must stand behind the people of the Pacific coast and relieve them of the diff culties resulting from immigration. The nation, he said, must see that only such aliens are admitted as can be assimilated and imbued with Am ericanism.
 The dangers of racial conflict must be recognized, he said, and provision made to reduce them to a minimum. He suggested that such steps be taken without offensive re fection on any race and without raising the question of inequality.

NO BAR TO BIRTHS.


 NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-In spite of the high cost of living, shortage of housing facilities and scarcity of domestic servants, the actual birth rate in New York is going up rapid ly, according to statistics just issued by the city health authorities.
 The figures show that the birth rate per thousand for the first seven months of 1920 was, 22.34, against the rate of 21.9O in the same period last year.
 While the birth rate is on the in crease, the health department statis- tics show that the death rate of children in the city is on the de- cline. The rate of infant mortality for the past year on each 1000 births was S3, while the preceding years show a much higher figure.
 The decline in the death rate is attributed by the authorities to bet ter sanitary conditions and to health full living.
