HARDING READY TO
MAKE STATEMENT
BEFORE CABINET
President and Secretary Da-
Wis Hold Conference at
II White House Today.

Washington, d. c.. Oct. 1S.-Presi-
dent Harding was in position today to
lay before his cabinet an, analysts Of
the railroad strike situation, an out
line of the governments position in
the controversy and suggestions as to
defensive measures to protect federal
functions If and when the tieup be-
comes actual.
In addition to report submitted
by the joint conference of the public
group of the railroad labor board,
and the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, Mr.. Harding was understood
to have the gist of reports obtained
by Attorney General Daugherty and
Postmaster General Hays, after SURF
veys of the situation by operatives in
the department OF justice and post
Office establishment.
THAT, President Harding does not
yet view the strike as having passed
beyond the "possi ibility' stage IVES
one Interpretation placed upon the
announcement that he plans to leave
Washington tonight for Yorktown
and Williamsburg, Va. where he will
make addresses tomorrow.
The presidential party is not ex-
pected to return before Thursday.
Conference Held.
Z, The first move today bearing on
the strike situation was conferences
at the White House between the
president and Secretary Davis.
| Attorney General Daugherty, on
entering the cabinet meeting today
said:
II think it improper for the de-
partment of justice to discuss any
phase of the railroad strike situation
at this time. If any action Is requir-
ed by the department, Of course.
there will be action, but in all proba-
bility there will be no statement from
the department concerning the strike
| situation until there are further de-
velopments.'

More Reason For Recall.

In an open letter to the voters Of
North Dakota Congressman o. B.
Burtness takes the position that the
alleged bond sale is an added reason
why the present members of the in
dustrial commission should be recall
ed on October 28.
Mr.. Bursness reviews briefly the
record OF the present commission and
asks the taxpayers of the state if they
are willing to let the same men, who
ran the Drake mill at q loss of moro
than lib per cent in one year. repeat
the performance with the two million
dollar enterprise at Grand Forks
In conclusion Mr.. Burtness pays a
glowing tribute to the Independent
candidates and asks the voters Of
North Dakota to give Nestoa, johnson
and Kitchen their support on election
day.
BurtneeE' Letter.
Mr.. Burtness' letter follows:
To the Voters of North Dakota:
y have read with interest the press
reports that tltfe industrial commission
has sold some state bonds OF each OF
the real estate and mill and elevator
series also note that the league
newspapers are loud in their praises
of the state administration for accom-
plishing this wonderful feat and that
they claim that with it all possible
arguments in favor OF the recall have
been eliminated.
Il feel certain that upon a little re-
Election such reasoning will not ap-
peal to the intelligence Of our people
The fact that the bonds have prob
ably been sold and that the state mill
receive the proceeds from such sales
aggregating, as the league newspapers
claim, upwards OF four million dollars
Is but an added reason why each tax
payer should see to 1t rs q business
proposition for himself and his state
that the present Missionaries constitut-
ing the industrial commission be re-
moved and men who will conduct the
affairs OF the state in n sane business
like way take their places.
Money Needed.
Il am glad some OF the bonds have
been sold. The money is sorely needed
to release the funds Of school districts
villages, townshipB and counties now
tied up in loans of doubtful value 90
that such municipalities may continue
to function. It is also needed TOR the

CLOGGED BLOOD

Workers Sick and Weak
From Exertion Take GUIDES
Pepto-Mangan

Men and women. who toll. either
physically or mentally, use up energy.
When they oyerwork they use up
more energy. and sometimes the
blood gets in a rundown condition.
Without rest the blood cannot get
back to normal. so that it becomes
clogged with waste matter from over
exertion.
The clogged blood virtually withers
the body. The strained looks on pale
faces, the thin, bloodless arms. the
sunken cheeks and necks. the dead
tired feeling, are the results Of stale
blood depriving the system of life
giving oxygen.
Workers go TO the drug store and
get GUIDES Pepto-Mangan when they
feel weak and run down. They take

form. That makes the blood rich
and red and drives out the poisons.
