MESSAGE
NEARLY READY
Harding's Recommendation Go 20
Congress MondAy-Sunnary Of
Domestic Problems.

Washington, April 9.-CUnited !
Press. The rough draft Of Presi-
dent Harding's first message to |
congress is nearly completed today. |
1t is possible to give . summary of
the domestic problems to be treat
ed
What Harding will say about for
eign relations, however, remains
for the most part secret.
Harding will appear before .
joint session of the senate and
house Tuesday, the day after con-
gress convenes. He decided on this
course in belief that it would give
what he had to say more emphasis.
His recommendations on domes-
tic questions will include:
Foreign Trade.
Additional legislation which will
enable American business men to
enter foreign markets and compete
to better advantage with citizens
Of countries which pursue An ag-
gressive trade expansion policy is
likely to be asked.
Soldier Relief.
The Dawes report advocating
consolidation Of the war risk
bureau with soldier relief sections
of the board for vocational educa-
ton and the public health service.
and creation Of q veterans service
administration, will be based upon
the presidents recommendation.
Taxation.
Repeal Of the excess profits tax
will be asked and possibly repeal
of the soda water tax and other
consumers taxes will be urged.
There is some doubt as to whether
definite recommendation for tax
revision viii be made in the pres
ident's message or placed before
congressional committees later by
Secretary Of the Treasury Mellon.
Tariff.
Prompt action in anti-dumping
and emergency tariff legislation is
to be asked.
Railroads,
President Harding is expected to
limit himself to . general refer
ence to the critical transportation
situation and await the outcome
of the senate investigation soon to
be undertaken.
ccad Roads.
| The necessity Of federal encour-
agement to the good roads move
ment is recognized but no federal
aid should be granted unless there
are strict requirements which
would compel states to maintain
the roads in proper condition.
Alaska
Attention may be called to the
possibilities for development in
Alaska and to the need OF encour-
agement by congress.
| Budget
| Harding will unqualifiedly en-
dorse the passage Of 4 budget bill
to bring about coordination Of gov
eminent income and expenditures.
Merchant Marine,
| The president will clearly indi-
cate that he is for whatever stems
are necessary to preserve and in
crease the American merchant ma
rine.

WEEKLY GRAIN AND
PROVISION REVIEW

Chicago, April Uncertainty
over the big labor tie-up in Great
Britain has acted like a weight on
the wheat market this week. Prices
this morning, compared with a week
ago, showed declines varying from
Nc to &c a bushel. Net changes in
corn ranged from Nc off to 1%c
to 1Zc advance. Oats gained Nc
to 1tc and provisions lost 81 to
1915.
Aside from British strike devel-
opments. timely rains which meant
the removal of any likelihood of a
dry weather scare counted most as
an influence tending to lower the
value of wheat. On the other hand,
rallies were encouraged by a re-
turn OF low temperatures as well
as by signs that export interests
were already contracting for new
wheat, and by Washington advices
that the emergency tariff bill would
be hurried through the house OF
representatives.
The governments crop report
suggesting a smaller yield than re-
cent private estimates had pointed
to also at more or less temper
airy stimulus to buyers. In the
end, however, all such factors were
more than counterbalanced by the
breakdown Of efforts to bring abou,
a settlement of the British Goa
strike.
Corn and oats developed compar
, alive strength, owing chiefly t
smallness OF receipts, together will
wet weather delay to seeding o.
oats.
Provisions lacked support, a de-
decided increase having been shown
in western stocks Of meats ant
lard.

DAY OF PEACE
FOR "CARP.' .
Challenger's Mind Is to Be
Kept Off the Coming
Grind
PHONOGRAPH, WALK
AND MOTOR RIDE
All in Carpenters Camp
Said to Be Getting
Impatient

Manhasset, n. Y. July Only light
exercise was on the work program OF
Georges Carpenter to day, and to keeT
his mind off o-morrow's battle, Train.
er Wilson prescribed photographic mu.
sic, a walk through the woods and a
long automobile ride.
This of all days, Trainer Wilson
said, was to be day of peace for the
challenger and he was not to be both
cred even by personal friends.
All members of the camp were busy
getting things in order for tomorrow.
Everybody was impatient but the only
display of real nervousness was on the
part Of Manager Descamps. He APP
peared to be up III the air. because
of number OF telephone calls. He said
there had been no less than IS up to
noon and that he had been asked all
the foolish questions imaginable.
Some fellow who said he was going
to bet on Carpenter wanted to talk
to the challenger himself and ask his
advice. A woman thought Descamps
rude because he refused an invitation
for the challenger TO attend an ice
cream socia, tonight.
Although he declined to say what
plans had been made for after the
fight, Descamps intimated that the
camp here would be retained. Trainer
Wilson will be placed in charge and
will condition Charles Ledoux, the
bantamweight champion, and Paul
Journee, the big French heavyweight.
1t is also probable that Marcel Denis,
the French lightweight, will train here
under the supervision of Wilson.
Should Georges win his fight with
Dempsey it is almost certain that he
will come to this country later and
make Manhasset his headquarters il
only temporarily.
