WILL PREVENT HARDING FROM
 GETTING CHILL
Pair of Fleecy Bed Covering Presented President by
 County Farm Bureau.

WALPOLE, N. -H, May 2S.-The Cheshire County Farm Bureau has isiued blanket insurance against a Presidential chill by sending pair of f1eecy bed coverings to the White House. These were manufactured from wool sheared from sheep raised on the hills of New Hampshire.
 In letter accompanying the gift, State Senator Fred o. Smalley said:
 You will be interested to know that the farmers had practically their entire 1920 wool crop con verted into blankets, about 300 pairs in all. These blankets, by the way, are the old fashioned kind, such as our grandmothers used to make. By securing market in this way we have been able to obtain a price of about 40 cents a pound for the raw wool, which was better than no market at all.''
 President Harding's reply said:
 "I have read with a great deal of interest your letter, and am es- pecially pleased to have the blankets which you were good enough to present to me on behalf of the Cheshire County Farm Bureau Please let me assure you aid your associates that 1 am very much gratified by this evidence of your good will"

The. Centrifugal Gun Fails.
The Army Ordnance Department
Finds the Weapon Impracticable.

From the Army and Novy Journal.
After making exhaustive tests with
the centrifugal gun at Aberdeen Prov
ing Ground, VI the Ordnance Depart
ment has come - the conclusion that
Indications do not mint to the possibil-
ity OF obtaining a Centrifugal gun which
will have any military value. by reason
OF the necessary weight and the appar-
cnt inability TO obtain sufficient initial
velocity.
The tests which have been conducted
are believed TO furnish a basis upon
which It may be dennitely stated that
this type OF weapon is not suitable for
development to point where It will
have military value. IL Is considered as
ali interesting illustration Of what may
be done with centrifugal force. but linn
tied by the nature Of the mechanism re-
quired 70 the status OF laboratory
demonstration.
The above conclusions bear out those
az similar nature made years ago,
after trials OF centrifugal gun, when
sanguine inventors were positive they
had gun that would revolutionizo
warfare.

amended in 1913. The independent
interests agree with the opinion 0. Mr..
GUTHRIE, but they are at loss to know
how to get action. The State De-
partment would scarcely have ap-
proved the operations of the commits
sion without first consulting the
Department OF Justice.
Legal opinions by Mr.. GUTHRIE and
by the Department Of Justice may be
at variance on this particular case.
Possibly the recovery Of financial
equilibrium in Cuba seemed to de
mand that point be well stretched.
But the net result of the Sugar Finan-
cial Commissions operations since the
early part of February has been an
advance of one and one-Quarter cents
in the price of raw sugar in New York,
representing an added cost Of $780,
100000 year to the American public,
which consumes nearly 100000 tons
Of sugar every twelve months.
If this bad been caused by agree
ment or action within the United
States instead of In Cuba, reconstruc-
ton or no reconstruction, panic or
no panic, II would be safe wager
that not much tima would have been
lost in bringing the Sherman law

What Charles Showed Europe.

The little spring jaunt Of the Taps
burg CHARLES into Hungary has en-
llgh;ened him on two materially Inn
portant points: he is not the royal
idol OF the Hungarian people he i'm
agined he was, and the throne of st.
STEPHEN was not waiting 10 be oc-
eupied by him. More Important how
ever, Is the fact that his appearance
in the country over which he once
ruled revealed the governmental con-
dition not only In Hungary, the most
uncertain and troublesome Of the Da-
nubian countries but also In the other
States built up on the ruins of the
Hapsburg monarchy.
The actual danger Of Hapsburg
revival was very difficult TO deter
mine that it was really existent was
felt In France and Italy although
many OF the Wild rumors wers con
sidered largely the result Of the over
wrought imaginations Of the diploma
lists and politicians. In the last year
or two there were numerous arrests
In States which once formed part OF
Austria Hungary OF persons charged
with being implicated in royalist plots.
In Jugo-Slayia these individuals were
members Of the So allied Franck
party Of Croatia. which, it was as-
serted, wns working with the mon
archists OF Austria and Hungary In
order to defeat the ambitions Of Ser
bia as the head of he Jug0-Slav
confederation. In Czecho-Slcvakia
the conspirators were mostly tho adj
herents OF Prince LoBKowrTs, and In
Austria the royalists were found
among the officers Of the old army,
the officials Of the old civil service
and within the ranks Of the Chris
tian Socialists, one OF the two strong
Austrian political parties.
There was, however always more
alarm over the situation In Hungary
than In any Of these other States.
