departments of the state cooperate
with the enforcement Of the prohibi-
tions laws Of the state to wipe out
bootlegging and moonshining. The To-

Warehouse floors are being filled

enough tobacco on the market to keep

sales are proceeding rapidly and the
warehousemen are making room to
care for what comes in.
Sales today were very satisfactory
to the growers, expressions from the
growers heard on the streets bear this

prices now being paid for low grades

Address Is Read.
Mr.. Harding read from a finely
printed manuscript cut in small
sheets and held in the hollow of
his left hand. He ~ept on his dark
blue overcoat during the address.
President Harding took the oath
at the exact minute of the day that
Woodrow Wilson was sworn in for
his first term eight years ago.
Mr.. Harding spoke in a clear,
fun tone, proceeding more deliber-
ately than he usually does in pub
lie addresses. He put a solemn
emphasis on his condemnation of
super government" and the

crash OF applause.
The ceremonies surrounding the
Inauguration of the new president
were If anything ever more simple
than those attending the first in
auguration Of George Washington.
The usual morning salute of naval
guns was missing and there was
absolutely nothing in the way of a
military or civil procession.
The only troops on hand were
four squadrons of cavalry assigned
by the congressional inaugural
committee as an escort for the
new president, 500 marines for
guard duty at the capitol, and as
many regular army infantrymen |
from Fort Myer for guard duty |
along the streets,
1t was Mr.. Harding's wish that |
all display be eliminated. He said |
he desired no parade and also |
asked that the usual inaugural |
ball be omitted.
There were more cheers when
the president delivered his con-
demnation of war profiteering. He,
then had been speaking for about
Is minutes and was half way
through his manuscript.
In the midst of his address Mr..
Harding departed from his pre-
pared manuscript to make refer
ence to the group of wounded SOL
diers just below the inaugural
stand. He assured them that this
republic will never be ungrateful
for the services you have rem
lered," and added that he hoped
or policy which would ade-
luately provide in the future for
hose wounded in war time.
President Harding concluded his !
address, at 1855 p. m. after talking
Exactly 81 minutes.
There was another roar of ap-
'lause as he concluded and turned
