VISITS
new JERSEY HOME
He and Mrs. Harding to Be Guests of
Senator FreIinshuysen Over
the Fourth.

RARITAN, n. J., July president
and Mrs Harding, accompanied by a
party of friends, arrived at Raritan
today for a four day Fourth of July
vacation at the home of Senator Jos.
Frelinghuysen.
Instead of making the trip from
Washington in a private car as has
been customary with presidents in re-
cent years, Mr.. Harding and his
friends travelled as ordfsary passen-
gers in chair car attached to a reg
ular passenger train. The entire car,
however, was reserved for the party,
which included Speaker and Mrs. Gill
lett, Senator and Mrs. Kellogg, Sen
ator Hale, and a number or others.
The presidents train reached Bound
Brook, n. J., at $40 p. m, standard
time, and the party motored from the
Bound Brook station to the Freling-
huysen home on the outskirts of Rar-
itan. The president played a round of
golf at the Raritan Country club and
spent the evening quietly with his
host.
Tomorrow he plans again to play
golf. Sunday he will attend church
here, and Monday will be present at
a local Fourth of July celebration. He
will return to Washington Tuesday.

PAROLED LEPERS
FAIL TO RETURN

HONOLULU, T. H, July 2-Some
of the patients released on parole from
the leprosy investigation station and
hospital at Kalihi Honolulu, have
failed to report at regular intervals,
as they are required to do by the terms
of their parole, and the board of health
of the territory has issued an ultima
tum that if this continues they will
be brought back to the station and
their permits to live at home con-
ceIled.
While not a single patient out of the
scores parolled from Kalihi has been
returned owing to recurrence of the
disease, the authorities insist on keep
ing a strict check on those released.
Board of health officers point out
that, while the chaulmoogra oil treat
ment, as administered here, has
proved that leprosy can be checked,
time alone can establish whether a
definite cure has been evolved.
In all their statements given to the
Associated Press, DIR. A. L. Dean,
president of the University of Hawaii,
and the other scientists waging the
battle against leprosy here have spe-
said that the chaulmoogra oil
treatment will check leprosy and while
expressing he confident hope that it
will ultimately result in definite
cure, they have carefully pointed out
that this hope can be realized only by
the test of time.
