toned for Big Jobs.

Washington, March 2@There's one
thing Mr.. Harding will have no trou-
BILE over-finding enough Republicans
to fill all the jobs. In fact, if any
shortage develops, all he has to do is
to turn to Kansas, and there are
plenty of applications on file already
to just about fill any post under the
sun that Mr.. Harding has at his dis
posal.
Thus far the Kansas delegation has
held no caucus to endorse specific in
diyiduals for any particular appoint
ment. That will start after March 4.
But with Dave" Mulvane, the nation
al committeeman from the state, here
today for the meeting of the general
committee preliminary to Mr.. Hard
ipg's inaugural, it is likely some of
the more important patronage matters
will be discussed informally by the
delegation. Both senators will follow
the plan of attempting to get united
delegation for each appointment in
stead of dividing the jobs .'fifty-fifty'
between the two senators and passing
the "left-oxers," if any, over to the
congressman.
Most of the applicants for federal
positions are seeking places in Kan
sas, not desiring to leave the state,
but about twenty are after national
appointments. Maj. Ira K. Wells of
Seneca would be United States district
judge of Porto Rico and has been en-
dorsed widely for that place.
Clyde Reed In p. o. Department.
Clyde M. Reed of Topeka, member
of the Kansas industrial court, has

alship, while W. G. Markham of Bald

Free Transportation for Ath-

BY HENRY FARRELL.

.BF HENRY l. FARRELL
New York, March Bob Weay-
er, president of the A. A. u, is going
to Lucerne in June to get the 1924
Olympic games for Los Angeles.
He is going loaded with the most
tempting bait that has ever been Of
fered to foreign nations
Los Angeles will bring the athletes
of every foreign nation to the Pacific
coast, take care of them while they
are there and send them home-free
of charge.
II believe our invitation will be con-
sidered very favorably," Weaver said
in a letter today.
Sweden and France have written
letters to the boss of amateur athletics
assuring him of their support when
the vote comes at the international
meeting for site for the next games.
Last summer in Antwerp, the Eng
lish delegation also expressed their
favor of holding the next games in
America.
There seems little doubt that the
foreign nations, with the opportunity
of fine trip with freight paid, will
consider the invitation favorably."
WEI have every argument in our
favor as far as climatic conditions are
concerned" Weaver says. with the
new stadium we viii build. we will
have one of the finest places in the
world to conduct every branch of
|sports on the Olympic calendar"
While no definite plans were men
toned, it is understood that the Los
Angeles committee plans to charter q
ship and collect the athletes of all the
European nations. bringing them to
the coast and sending them home the
same way.
This would make the next games the
most representative and the best in
history. as the smaller nations have al
ways had difficulty in getting the
money necessary to send representa-

duce for it's information all correspond

truckload of several tons of documents

The problem of wading thru the
great mass of papers also was left to

A previous request by the committee
for the correspondence was met with
the statement by Secretary Houston
that he had referred portion of the
documents to the state department for
an opinion as to whether it could be
given to the committee without affec-
ing the public interest
Yesterday the committee adopted a
resolution by Senator Reed of Missouri,
directing the secretary to produce
the information and this was declared

What Science proved by its tests on this pigeon
is being proved just as conclusively today by
millions Of men and women whose systems de-
mand the health-giving vitamines which are so
often lost in the cooking and preparation of many
everyday foods. Yeast is rich in one class of
vitamines-Water Soluble B. But there are two
other known vitamines-Fat Soluble A, nor
mally present in raw milk cod-liver oil and
certain plants-and Water Soluble c, found to
be in certain fruits and vegetables.
