SENDS MEMORIAL DAY
MESSAGE TO LEGION
PRESIDENT EXPRESSES HOPE
THAT FUTURE WILL BRING
LESS NEED FOR FURTHER
NATIONAL SACRIFICES.

New York, May 2S.-President
Harding in a memorial day message
to the American Legion, made pub
lie last night, expressed hope that
the future would bring less need for
further national sacrifices. The mes
sage follows:
Americans never been much Civ
en- to the establishment of holidays
and fete days. Perhaps our nation
al life has been so short, and en-
tirely within so matter of fact and
practical a period of the worlds his
tory that we have been little moved
by the sentiments that such occa-
sions inspire Yes, / think no ma
ton has ever established a national
day of conservation that represented
a more lofty and ennobling senti-
ment than does our national Memoir
ial day. To its observance We have
brought the full measure of sincere
reverence and gratitude that great
people is ever to entertain for those
who have made the great sacrifice in
its behalf.
Memorial day marks out recogni-
ton of those who, from our national
beginnings, have deserved the most
that the nation could give of graft
tude and appreciation. 1t reminds
us that in every generation, from
Lexington to the Argonne, our val
orous sons have well deserved the
highest tribute that nation, forti-
fled, defended, preserved, could give
to them. Whenever the demand has
come, and wherever it may nave
called the sons of our proud land,
il has always been answered. Though
we have never been a militant or
war loving people, there has been
no tie when Americans did not rise
to the full measure of the require
ments which national honor and ma
tional safety imposed upon them.
When national safety was the cause,
the response was always inslstent
and decisive. When civilization sum-
moned and our sons were called to
other seas and soils we saw the same
promptness, the same zeal, the same
| devotion.
con this Memorial day of 1921,
we stand. / trust, very close to peace
achieved, to safety insured. May Il
be our common aim and purpose
that. in the coming years, our ma
| tion's aim and policy shall be dl-
rected to make certain that there
shall be at least need for further
sacrifices, greatest guarantees OF the
stability, the premature and the In
spring character of those institu'
tions of liberty to which our nation
/ has been dedicated"

ROADS BEING OPER-
ATED EFFICIENTLY
OF THE MILWAUKEE
RAILROAD APPEARS BEFORE
THE SENATE COMMITTEES.

Washington, ID. c., May IS
Railroads of the United States are
being operated efficiently. III. E.
Byram. president of the Chicago,
Milwaukee and st. Paul, said today
during his examination before the
senate interstate commerce commit
tee. which is inquiring into the
transportation situation. He prais-
ed the work of the employees, who
are endeavoring to aid the carriers
in obtaining better results.
"It is to be regretted" Mr.. By
ram said, that the attitude of some
of these who speak for railroad en-
ployes of the country does not tend
to promote good service. 1t is great
ly to the credit of the rank and file
of employees of the railroads of the
country that they have not been mis-
led by false doctrines. as is shown
by the general willingness to coop
crate with the management of the
railroads in bring about the neces-
sary efficiency and economy in their
operation which prevails at the pres
ent time"
~"Officers and employees of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
Railway company for several years.
and particularly of late, have been
carrying out the principle of cooper
alton and study mutually in finding
and practicing economy and improv-
ad r,atbodc Committees have been
formed of officers and employees on
every division to study the details of
operation
Mr.. Byram presented a table 10
show that increases of from 90 TO
as high as 116 per cent in the
amount of bulk commodities and
merchandise loaded by company en-
ployes at various points had resulted
from such cooperation.

al inquiry which is proposed by Sen
ator Lenroot and Congressman

STATES ATTORNEY
MAKESSTATEMENT
WHAT WILL OR WILL NOT BE
DONE ABOUT BASEBALL AT
THE PARK TOMORROW.

In a conversation with States At
torney II. II. Holdridge today the
facts came out that he had made all
arrangements for the arrest and pro-
secution of baseball players should
they play ball on Sunday or attempt
ed what was a clear evasion of the
law by letting anyone in free at the
gate and charging for grandstand and
bleachers.
Mr.. Holdridge stated that he re-
ceived a telephone message at 2:30
p. M from Attorney General Payne
at Pierre, asking him to refrain from
prosecuting in case no charge was
made at the gate but a charge de-
manded for grandstand and bleach
ers as he wished to make a test case
before general prosecutions were in
stituted.
Under these orders from the At
torney General, Mr.. Holdridge said
that no prosecutions would follow
tomorrow's game providing there be
no charge at the gate.

DROWNED IN
LAKE MADISON
YOUNG MAN FROM SIOUX FALLS
LOSES LIFE WHILE FISH
ING.

A tragic incident happened at
Long Lake near Madison Pass early
yesterday morning when Howard
Barber, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Albert
Barber, of Sioux Falls, went under
the water at time when no one
happened to be about to offer help.
1t seems that the unfortunate
light boat early yesterday morning.
Not appearing at breakfast time
caused uneasiness to Mr.. Hargreaves
for whom he worked. A search was
instituted and the unoccupied boat
was found drifting listlessly about.
Upon realization of something be-
ing wrong telephone message
brought A. G. Hallenbeck and son,
John, down from this place armed
with graphing hooks with which to
drag the lake for the body.
After casting about for a short
time in the vicinity where the young
fellow usually fished the body was
located about $50 feet from shore
and in quite shallow water.
After recovering the body Mr.. Hal
lenbeck brought it to his undertake
ing parlors and this morning ship
ped it to the parents who are resid-
ing on a farm on the outskirts of
Sioux Falls.
The young man was twenty years
old and was said to be an excellent
swimmer

AMERICA URGED To
HELP IN PEACE
FRENCH OFFICIAL MAKES AN
APPEAL FOR ASSISTANCE IN
SOLVING EUROPE'S PROB
LENS.

Paris, May 28.-An appeal to
America to step in and find a solu-
tion to the European situation was
voiced by NJ Noblemaire in the
chamber of deputies today during
discussion of the governments for
eign policy.
1.-The coming hour is the hour of
America" he said. 'She has not
signed the treaty but she has her
word to say. Why should not Amer
lea impose precise conditions for the
execution of certain clauses of the
treaty. for instance. reparations and
disarmament? We look to America
for the return of normal conditions
in Europe"
Premier BRAND again replying to
criticism, said:
Our program is clear and defin-
ite. There is no room for discussion.
Our decisions are taken and COM
municated to Germany; penalties
are ready to be enforced. The reich
stag has approved the Wirth cabinet
which has declared its readiness to
fulfill Germany's obligations, and, If
tomorrow Germany should attempt
to defa2ft, France knows what re-
mains to be done. But l have 40
right to say in advance that the
German government is composed of
men who will try oevade their obli-
cations, and | have no right to make
their task harder.
1--WE have before US debtor who
has declared his readiness to pay. We
have the necessary strength to act ii
he does not. 1 believe it is to
Frances honor to act with modera-
ton and await developments"

Chicago Sick Get
Medicinal Pint

Chicago, May 2S.-Prohibition Di-
rector Ralph w. Stone sat in his Of
flee today and studied the report of
subordinate, the prescription
clerk"
YES" he said, Chicago ought to
be healthy city, to judge by the
number of prescriptions that are is
sued. This office gives out more
than 10000 prescription blanks to
physicians every month. The physi-
clans write prescriptions for 10000
pints of liquor every month and in
that time put s650,000 in the cof-
fers of the city's druggists.
I'VE have the prescription busi-
ness under control now, however, and
the doctors in the majority are OBJ
serving the rules"
Sixteen and six-tenths per cent of
the population of the city get their
"medincinal pint of whiskey every
month, the director said. Every
sickness from a running nose to scar

Must Prove He
Yet Is Living

Parker, May 28.-Nels Peterson,
a Turner county ex-service man, is
having a hard time convincing Uncle
Sam that he is not dead.
During the heavy calls for soldiers
three years ago he enlisted in the
army. He was sent overseas and
fought i'm the Toul sector. The war
department sent word to his sister
in Turner county, some weeks before
Armistice day, that Peterson had
been KILLED in accident" He was
mourned as dead.
To the surplus and delight of his
relatives and friends he returned to
the United States on May %, 1919,
and was discharged from the SER
vice May 81, 1919. Nels uses "d''
in his surname, but Uncle Sam in re-
porting him dead, uses a 1t" in his
surname, making it Peterson instead
of Peterson.
The war department insists that
he is dead, and to convince it differ
entity he now has had his finger
prints taken before witnesses and
these prints have been sent to the
war department to be compared with
his finger prints taken when he en-
listed.
By this means he expects to con-
vince the war department that he yet
is very much alive.
