 "A thrill of joy and pride. such as never came again. went through the huge Bri/sh army in France on the day when the news spread that Ger many had sued for peace on the basis of Mir. Wilson's famous 14 points. That was the victory for which our armies had fought.

HARDING KEYNES .OLD PRECEDENT
Meets Senate In Executive Session: White House
 Gates Are Unlocked

WASHINGTON, March 4-(By the Associated Press)-The reins ot pres idential authority passed from Wood row Wilson to Warren c. Harding to. day in an inaugural ceremony at once the simplest and most dramatic of generation.
 The drama centered about the re- tirement of Woodrow Wilson. lnsis- tent to the last that he would carry out retiring presidents customary part in the ceremonies, Mir. Wilson fi- nally yielded to the warning of his physician that he might endanger his life, and only accompanied his sue. cessor to the capitol.
 He told Senator Knox. chairman of the congressional inaugural committee he was not equal to participating in the ceremony of inaugurating Vice President Coolidge nor in the cere- mony of inaugurating President Harl- ing.
 After a few moments at the capitol. Mir. Wilson went to his private home.
 Public OVerruns Ground
 Before Mir. Harding had been pres ident an hour he had revived a prece- dent set by George Washington by conferring with the senate in execu- tive session, submitting the nomina tions of his 10 cabinet officers. All were immediately confirmed. Within another hour he had gone to the white house to hang up his hat aud go to work" as he often had said. and unlocked the white house gates, for four years closed to the public. The public celebrated by actually ov- errunning the grounds and peeping through the windows to see the new president.
 Mir. Harding took the oath of of- flee at 1:lS D. m, exactly eight years to the minute from the time MT. Will son took his first oath. The inaugur- al ceremonies, were kept free from almost every show of the pomp and circumstance that usually surround the incoming of chief executive. Thousands witnessed the oath and cheered the old and new presidents. but the crowd was only fraction of the customary throngs.
 Points Out Supreme Task
 On the Bible used by George Wash ington at his first induction into of. flee, and on a verse of Scripture eX- tolling the virtues or an humble faith in God MT. Harding plighted his best ability to the presidency. In his in- augural address. he reaffirmed his re- verence for the traditions Of the fathers and reiterated his belief that the supreme task ahead was to bring the country once more Co normalcy.
 The inauguration ceremony took place as usual on stand erected above the steps of the capitol. but in marked contrast to previous inaugur- ations, when thousands of seats were provided. the company had to remain standing. Even the inaugural stand was much smaller, and was erected to accommodate a telephonic appara- tus which carried Mir. Harding's voice

Wilson Shuns Inauguration
 To Safeguard Broken Health
Text Of Address Made By Harding
 At Inauguration

WASHINGTON, March 4.-Presi- dent Harding, in his inaugural ad dress, said:
 My countrymen. when one surveys the world about him after the great storm. noting the marks of destruc- tion and yet rejoicing in the rugged ness of the things which withstood it, If he is an American he breathes the clarified atmosphere With strange mingling of regret and new hope. We have seen world passion spend it's fury, but we contemplate our repub- lie unshaken and hold our civiliZa- tion secure. Liberty-liberty within the law and civilization are in- separable and though both were threatened We find them now secure. and there comes to Americans the profound assurance that our repre- sentative government Is the highest expression and surest guaranty oI both.
 Standing in this presence, mindful of the solemnity of this occasion, feel ing the emotions which no one may know until he senses the great weight of responsibility for himself, I must utter my belief in the divine inspira- ton of the founding fathers. Surely, there must have been Gods intent in the making of this new world republic. Ours is an organic law which had but one ambiguity, and we saw that ef- faced in baptism of sacrifice and blood, with union maintained, the na- ton supreme and it's concord inspir- ing. We have seen the world riyet its hopeful gaze on the great truths on which the founders wrought. We have seen civil, human and religious liberty verified and glorified. In the beginning, the old world scoffed at our experiment, today our foundations of political and social belief stand un- shaken, precious inheritance to our selves, an inspiring example of free dom and civilization to all mankind. Let us express renewed and strength ened devotion, in grateful reverence for the immortal beginning, and utter our confidence in the supreme fulfill ment.
 Progress Proves Wisdom
 "The recorded progress of our re- public, materially and spiritually, in itself proves the wisdom of the inheri- ted policy of non-involvement in old WOrlC a1tdlrS. NOHIlUcul UT OuT dOiit ty to work out our own destiny and jealusly guarding our right to do so. we seek no part in directing the des- tinies of the old world. We do not mean to be entangled. We will accept no responsibility except as our own conscience and judgment in each in- stance may determine.
 Our eyes never will be blinded to a developing menace. our ears never deaf to the call of civilization. We recognize the new order ill the world with the closer contacts which pro gress has wrought. We sense the feeling of the human heart for fel- lowship, fraternity and cooperation. We crave friendship and harbor no hate. But America. our America, the America built on the foundation laid by the inspired fathers, can'be party to no permanent military alliance. It can enter into no political commit ments, nor assume any economic ob- legations or subject or decisions to

Pleased With President s "Reaffirmation Of Our
 National Policy"

WASHINGTON, March 4.-Declar- ing that President Harding's inaug- uraI address meant the end of the league of nations," Senator Johnson, of California, who opposed MT. Hard ing for tue Republican presidential nomination, asserted in statement tonight that he was delighted with President Harding's reaffirmation of our national policy and with his en- phatic words concerning old world entanglements."
 President Harding but stated in eloquent fashion the policy of Wash ington for which We fought" Sena- ter Johnson said.
 And the American people who so overwhelmingly elected President Harding, will say amen to his char acteriZation of the recent election; in a deliberate questioning of a sug- gested change or national policy where internationally was to super4 cede nationality, We turned to a ref erendum to the American people. There was ample discussion, and there is a public mandate in manifest un- derstanding.'
 Here is the recognition of the solemn referendum and the mandate of the people. This is the end of the league of nations.
 The presidents words concerning industrial peace, with its rewards, widely and generally distributed, and with equality of opportunity denied to none, will be read most sympatheti- cally; and his brief remarks that our country should be free from distress ed poverty and that we must guard against the perils and penalties of unemployment are most timely"
