PRESLDEST VISITS
WOUNDED SOLDIERS
Government to be Mindful Of Sacrific.
cS Delivers Two Talks

GOYC1hment TO DO Mindful Of Sacrifice
cs Delivers Two Talks
Washington, March 2O.-President
Harding combined an errand of mercy
with first hand study of one of his ad-
ministrative problems today by spend
Ing more than two hours among the
wounded soldiers at Walter Reed hos
pital
Accompanied by Mrs. Harding and
Dr. C. e. Sawyer, his personal physi-
clan whom he has charged with an in
vestigation Of the general problem of
public health and social welfare, the
president looked through the wards
| and entertainment rooms Of the hos
Dital, greeting scores of the patients
| and asking them what could be done
to make them more comfortable.
In short talk from the front steps
of the administration building, he told
an a9semblage of patients and nursc.
that he wanted to see a government
policy that should fully recognize what
the soldiers of the great war gave to
| their country. and later at the Red
Cross hut he made {; speech Draising
the services of women in the winning
Of the war
The question OF proper hospital IA
cilities and medical attention for
wounded soldiers is one which has
been much in Mr. Harding mind since
his election and during today's visit
nc asked about many details OF hos.
pi n administration. Among Other
things he studied the vocational train
ing system for the wounded, and Mrs
Harding brought away as a souvenir
OF the vocational plant hammered
silver jewel case made and presented
by her by Private Joseph Yurkunski
To all OF the wounded men with
whom they talked the president and
Mrs. Harding extended the hospital-
ity of the White House, SUGGESTING
that those from Ohio arrange to como
in body soon to call on them.
In his talk from the hospital steps
Mr.. Harding recalled the example of
confederate war veteran he had
known, who despite the loss of botl,
arms and one leg always kept talking
checrfully of the future and of the
opportunities 1t might bring
Il offer to you men," continued Mr.
aldng. THAT same compensation
Look forward aways' to the morrow
| am srry the burden has come SC
hard to you but you may be sure the
government never viii be unmindfu7

AT. the Red Cross hut the president
/ declared the work Of women in the
'Aar and the aftermath Of war ranked
as the greatest service ever rendered
by the scX to humanity.
| The greatets thing women has
done in history" he said was the
fulfillment Of her part in the winning
of tho war for civilization When |
bring that tribute to you know it is
the tribute that has been in the hearts
OF the mon in the armed forces who
felt that you ministered unto them ms
only angles Of God Almighty could

Out in Oakland, Calf, there is a
college PRECEDENT who declares that
the biggest boom to enrolment at a
college or university is the sporting

champion Of the sports pages is none
other than Brother U. Gregory, pres
ident Of st. Mary's college, the old
est and most conservative Catholic
institution of learning in the West.
In the sporting pages Brother
Gregory sees the place wher the col

clares that the college that does not
have it's name inscribed regularly on

Fine Recruiting Medium
We wouldn't care to go so far as
to say that the sporting pages of the
daily newspapers are the best re-
cruiting agents for colleges, but one
cannot get away from the fact that
normal college students and pros
pective ones read about sports and
are influenced by the work of col
lege in an athletic way. The most
noteworthy part Of the commenda-
tory statements is the recognition by
this eminent educator that the sport
ing pages play a useful part in the
growth of our colleges and universe
ties "a recognition long enough
sought by the writers Of sports but
rarely acknowledged by those who
are aided by these specialists in
sporting events.
Brother Gregory brings forth one
interesting point, point that long
has been recognized by the sporting
news gatherers of the metropolitan
dailies namely, that the high and
prep school youths read and digest
the reports on athletic activities of
their bigger college brethren. And
the institution that boasts of the
greatest number Of athletics is the
one which gains the greatest number
of recruits. Brother Gregory's state
ment follows:
Indication of Vitality
"The college or university which
does on appear on the sporting pages
of the newspaper is out of the run
ming. 1t lacks the vitality necessary
to real institution Of learning.
"All modern colleges and universe
ties are beginning to realize that the
sporting pages of the newspaper is
their legitimate means of publicity.
The red blooded American youth will
most often select his college by its
with US from following our athletic
record for athletic prowess. Many a
college never would have been known

Admiral Benson Plans
To Revise List of
Government Operators

WASHINGTON, April 3.-Admiral
William S. Benson, the Georgian who
is chairman Of the United States
shipping board, is to undertake a re-
vision of the list of operators of
government vessels and to "cull out"
the least efficient operators.
The boards chairman has called
for complete records covering the
services and activities of each OPP
Grating company and will eliminate
such operators as do not have goOd
records.
It is the intention of the shipping
board to retain the new trade route
which it has established, but it will
reduce the tonnage to correspond
with the drop in traffic and will con-
centrate the ships in the hands OF the
more capable companies.
From a maximum of 10 operators
following the war the number OF OPP
orators has now been reduced to
ninety-seven and there will be fur-
Their decreases.
In connection with shipping at
fairs, the secretary of commerce,
Herbert Hoover, announces his IN
tention to consolidate various bu-
reaus under his department which
deal with the merchant marine and
operation of vessels.
It is said there are now eleven
bureaus of the department of com
merce which deal directly or 1ndl-
rectly with the merchant marine, and
Mr.. Hoover has found that lack of
coordination and operation has re-
suited in delays and confusion.

blackmailer who earned the name

half dozen wealthy men of Port
land, Ore, Olympia, and other
northwest cities were terrorized.
By various ruses efforts were
made to nab him, but each time
he outwitted the detectives. In
one gun fight, when a decoy had
been set, he escaped 100 armed
men. A finger print on lunch
pail was the clue by which the
final hunt started that ended in

confessed that he resorted to
blackmail to get his invention

LOST HIS SENSES
MARCH IS; DOES|v'T
REMEMBER HOW

]. S. Meek, fifty-four years old, lay
propped up in bed at his home, %
Pelham street, Saturday morning,
and felt meditati lively of a lump on
the side of his head, and told a re-
porter for The Journal an amazing
story Of being knocked cold" the
evening of March 10, and coming to
his senses Friday afternoon in the
basement of a deserted house four
miles from the Chattahoochee river,
on the Cobb county side.

shave at barber shop and started
homeward, over the North avenue

was an automobile on the crossing,
and L stepped aside to let it go by. 1t
was pretty dark.
That's the last thing 1 remember,
before 1 came to. l don't recall being
hit or anything like that.
''The next thing l rememer is wax

begin to figure things out. l was in
my underclothing, lying on the
ground. l sat up. 1 was pretty dizzy
and felt very weak and rather sick
But l knew l would have to have
clothes, or at least l ought to nave
clothes, to go away from where
was.
AT that time I thought I hat
been there only little while, or a,
most. overnight. But when 1 felt o.
shaved a few hours before, there
was an awful lot of whiskers on it
enough for a week or two. I begar
to get worried sure enough, then
and my, head was hurting. too. and
had a lump on it.
II found beside me pair of ole
overalls and put them on. In one
pocket there was II cents. I walked
barefooted to the river and caugh

out the day of the month. Their
I felt like Rip Van Wrinkle.

Brighter Outlook
For Naval Stores

SAVANNAH, Ga, April with
the closing Of the naval stores here
Thursday there has come to the deal
ers in spirits and resins a feeling
of disappointment over the present
condition Of the market, because of
the extremely low prices which are
prevailing. They see, however,
brighter days for the new season.
On April 1, 1920, the price Of
spirits was 1888 per gallon. The
lowest price for the season was As
cents on March 26, 1921. The top
grade of rosin on April l, 1920, was
$19.75. The lowest level for the sea-
son was 1925 on March 90. Lower
grades dropped in like degrees.
There were more naval stores
handled during the past season than
