HARDING APPROVES
VERDICT FOR THE OWLS
Writes Thanks to Foreman Of
Schoolboy Jury.

WASHINGTON, July 9.-President Har-
ding has approved the finding Of the
schoolboys' jury which decided that the
owls in the White House grounds may
live Interest in the subject was wide
spread among nature loving children all
over the country, hundreds of whom SUBJ
mitted briefs to the American Forestry
Association, which arranged the trial.
The President to-day addressed his
approval to Jimmie Bradley, Wash
ington schoolboy and a member Of a
John Burroughs club, who headed the
jury, in the following letter:
"My Dear Jimmie:
Your conclusion is that the balance
is in favor even of the least desirable of
the birds, and ] am inclined to agree
with you. For why should these birds
have been put here unless to perform
some useful service? On the whole.
think we will grant them a reprieve.
think your John Burroughs club must be
doing a useful work. ! hope you will
continue your nature studies and that
later on, when you all become men and
women, you will be as much disposed
to apply the rules of equity and Justice
as you have been In this case.
Most sincerely yours.
WARREN G. HARDING"

exceptionally able group OF men sur
rounding him will be assisted by the
dispatches from this side OF Col Har-
vey. He is an Ambassador trenchant in
mind and expert in transaction who
cares little about either speaking or
ceremony for their own sake, but is
always bent on getting something done
and has actually done more in a few
weeks than any of his predecessors could
accomplish in the same time"
1T is for the Washington Cabinet,
therefore, not only to issue a formal in
vitation. but to propose the terms of the
conference. 1t is for the British Cow
ernment to accept the terms in the
broadest possible spirit. There is no
issue directly or indirectly involved, but
we must desire It to become the subject
of an amicable. frank and thorough dis
cussion. Obviously the status and future
of China with regard to territorial IN
tegrity, equal commercial opportunity
and methods for bringing the present
convulsive anarchy into some kind or
order must be fully dealt with before
agreed decisions can be reached either
upon disarmament or the treaty.
The delegates from China must evil
dentlv sit with those of the British do
minions and Japan, and Washington is
| free to invite or not to invite repne-
sentatives from other Powers. The
actual date of the conference may give
considerable time beforehand for delib-
Grafton and preparation.
"The contingency of failure we decline
| o contemplate. The dread Of failure must
not lead us to attempt any anxious and
niggling precautions. There Is no place
here for smaller diplomacy. We desire
to secure an identity Of view between all
English speaking societies upon the Pa
cific question. We desire equally to
avert a secular vendetta between the
white and yellow races such as If once
set UP would surely plunge the world
into repeated and immeasurable disas-
ters. We desire that the weight of
competitive ornaments leading once
more to certain war shall cease to curse
fruitful energies and blight the outlook
| of mankind
"Ths country is literally from the
King downward ready to reciprocate. If
we are on the eve of a message from
washington which VIII result in lifting
the nightmare from civilization and the
opening of a new vista of daylight for
world peace and world prosperity there
can be no precedence to the praise or
glory we shall not be willing to extend
to President Harding and to America"

,Eeclare That 500 Per Table Is
81 Excessive; Who's Its
7s Father?

Proprietors of pool and billiard halls
/ this city are up in arms against the
cassage OF the proposed new city or
SinaRce regulating the playing OF
those games, and the licensing OF
ables. For several years past the IL
ense fee charged in this city per
Able has been SIS. The proposed new
rdinance, which received its first
eading at the city council meeting
tuesday night, provides for license
ee of S100 per year per table.
Fee Beyond Reason, is Claim
I The owners of tables in this city
.ay that this is entirely beyond rea-
on and would put them entirely out
If business: One pool hall proprietor,
IN a stater.ent to The Free Press this
morning, stated that he has twenty
seven tables in his place of business,
which means an investment OF at
east $4,000. He said that the pool

Of only six months time. Daring
he hot months OF the summer there
s not enough business to hardly war

present time there is a state tax OF
Sense. This gentleman said that he
and the other men in the city engaged
in the same business Will hght the
ordnance, If it is passed.
: 'I do feel confident that we have
enough level headed members on the
council to defeat this unfair and tnn-
heard boost in the license fees pro-
Iosed," said the pool hall man. Other
Iroprietors spoke along the same line.
g lie 4F N n
Section three Of une proposed new
ordinance is the one which has stirred
I'D ructions. II reads as follows:
"The license fee for each public
pool, billiard, of pidgeon hole table,
or similar devine, shall be the sum
of 500 for one year, and for tach
bowling or box ball alley the sum OF
S100 for one year. No license shall
be granted for a tArm of less than one
year, except as here in provided for;
and all license for the same shall ter
mtote on May first OF each year.
Should any applicant apply for such
license after May first OF any year his
license, If granted, shall extend only to
the first of the following May, and
his license fee shall be pro rata OF
the annual fee, in the proportion the
time left to run OF the said year bears
! to the whole year"
Other stations provides that no gam :
bling shall be permitted, and that the
halls shall not be the gathering phases
Of Migrants or persons OF vicious hab-
! its.
1t Is understood that at the next
meeting of the council next Tuesday
evening the pool and billiard men win
be there in force TO protest against
section three OF the proposed ordi-
nance.
It is not known definitely which one
of the members of the council is the
father OF the proposed ordinance. A
ell of secrecy has been thrown about
tits part of the council program.
The ordinance was drafted by the city
attorney. 1t would appear on the sur ,
face that the purpose OF the ordinance
is to driyt the pool and billiard hall
proprietors out of business.

Disabled Men In Conven-
ton At Detroit
TAKE PLACES IN WORK
Supreme Object Of Members Is
Succeeding; Winning Great
, Victory
ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch. J.

Detroit. Mich, June 2S.-The
supreme object of the disabled
American veterans Of the world war
is to inspire in its members a deter
mination to come back and to take
their places in the nation as self
supporting and Independent citizens,
Judge Robert S. Marx of Cincinnati,
national president, told the veterans
at the opening session today Of the
first annual convention. eft is a
glorious thing to know that our I'M
dertaking is succeeding" Judge-Marx
said. From every hand we hear rec
ords of men who have surmounted
their physical handicap and taken
their places in industry. Wounded
and disabled men of America today
are winning a greater victory over
the kaiser than did the army OF
disabilities inflicted by the hun"
DepIored Delay Government.
Deploring the hardness of the gov
eminent in providing for disabled
men, Judge Marx continued: I'VE
believe the time has come when we
are justified in speaking in no un-
certain terms. The war has been over
nearly three years anu tnere Stlll Is
an urgent need for more than 10000
suitable beds for sick and disabled
ex- service men. Notwithstanding all
of, the agitation, no adequate provi-
sion has been made to take care Of
tuberculosis. mental and nervous
cases.
when wounded were lying on the
field Of battle there was no real man
who would not gladly have risked his
life to carry them to a irstlaid sta
ton, yet tuberculosis and mental
cases today are lying virtually where
they were left Oh the field Of battle
and neither the men, the means, nor
the hospitals are available to rescue
them. It Is our purpose to help carry
out suffering comrades to first aid
station and to make certain that such
stations are promptly provided"
The organization, Judge Marx said,
also would call upon cities that pro-
missed add to wounded soldiers and
have failed them. that they redeem
their pledges. Judge Marx declared
the Organization represented more
than half million wounded or dis
sbled service men In the United
States.
