INAUGURATION PLANS
STIR DEEP INTEREST

Inauguration talk began to stir at
the Capitol yesterday and II devel-
oped that the Harding ceremony
March next will be mere civic than
military in character. The abolish
ment of nearly all State guards by
the wartime mobiliations will have
the effect of practically wiping out
the old custom of detachments jour
neying to the Capital from the many
States, but this will be made up by
large delegations of citizens, COVER
nors and promiscous attendance.
1T will be the biggest inaugura-
tion in national history" said Jim
Preston, superintendent of the SEN
ate press gallery, who has seen
many of them. The expenses will
be much greater this year than ever,
but, for which the event would be
even more elaborate than the pros
poets indicate. have heard that
all the governors who were swept
into oce on the Republican landslide
will take part in the parade. and of
course there will be considerable Of
military, display. The prepara-
tions are being held back by the rush
of Congressional business and the
fact that many important measr-eS
are demanding attention here. TIE
weather is propitious for headway in
every respect and II may not be long
before something definite in done to-
ward the inaukurations program. 1t
always requires considerable car
rentry out in front of the Capitol
where the ceremony takes place, and
before this stage is reached the
naming of committees is to take
place. ! have heard much comment
about the prospects CT a great iaSug-
ural ball"

Enforcement Mine Bureau
Head Relates.

DR.. Charles E. Munroe. chief ex-
ploseive chemist of the United
States Bureau of Mines and inter
nationality known as an authority on
explosives, declared Wednesday that
present regulations for the hand
ling and distribution of explosives
in this country are so lax as to be
a menace to the safety of the aver
age community.

pointed out, "it is as easy. for a
man to buy dynamite as 1t Is for
him to buy sugar" As an example,
close to Washington he cited the
Germantown dynamite 0dtrage OF
two weeks ago in which two chfl-
dren and a man were killed and .
woman seriously injured as the re-
suit of the ease with which explo-
sives may now be secured in a
country still overstocked with dy-
Mantle and other high-power ex-
plosives left over from the war.
The present situation is partly
due. according to DR.. Munroe. to the
failure of Congress to Appropriate

reau of Mines to continue the regu-
lation of the manufacture and sale

plosives act of October 6, 1917. This
act, although designed as a war
time measure, is still in force, since
state of war technically con-
tinues, but has been rendered in
operative by lack of funds.
The sundry Civil Service act, ap-
proved July IS. 1919, directed that
the unexpended part Of the appro-
priation made for the enforcement
of this act be turned back to the
Treasury, with the exception of
$4,000. This amount was held nec-
essary to wind up the affairs of the
enforcement division of the u. s.
Bureau of Mines. which had during
the war maintained 'forty-nine field
OFFICES charged with licensing and
! other activities incidental to the
control and regulation of the manu-
facture and distribution of explo-
sives.
In all. sl1s.ss5.25 was converted
to the Treasury July s,1s1s. The
last OF the remaining $4,000 was
expended some time ago.
There is little prospect of secur-
ing an additional appropriation, ac-
/ cording to officials of the bureau,
since repeated requests have been
made to Congress by former secre-
tary Franklin K. Lane, Or. van H.
Manning. Senator Overman and
others without result
1t Is felt that q solution would
lie In the enactment Of statute
that would be less restrictive than

mild supervisory regulation of the
handling and distribution OF explo-
| sives by the U. 8. Bureau Of Mines,
the Department Of Justice, or some
other government agency.
