WILSON FAILS
TO TAKE PART
IN CEREMONY
Strain Imposed by Inaugural
Program Too Great For
President.
SIGNS MANY MEASURES
Executive Allows Several Last
Minute Bills to Die by
Pocket Veto.

BY Associated Press:
WASHINGTON, Mar. 4. - The
terrific strain imposed by the in
augural program proved too great
Friday for woodrow Wilson and he
retired to his new home on $ street
without witnessing the inauguration
of his successor. Warren q. Harding
of Ohio.
PreS't Harding became the new
president 1T 1:17. Almost an hour
before. Pres't Wilson had left the
capitol, returning alone by motor to
his new residence.
Mr.. wilson's effort was 4 game

Under a strain which was apparent
10 all who saw his drawn face and
limping figure, he rode TO the cap
itol with his successor, signed some
last minute bills, allowed others 20
die by a pocket veto and then, very
tired and much moved, he was as
sisted TO his car and rode alone
down the long avenue while the
attention OF thousands was riVeted
on the new president.
Takes Final Glance.
AS the car drove off the president
cast a backward glance over his
shoulder at the great white mansion
that he was leaving for the last time.
1t was a look Of peculiar intensity.
Up the avenue the president and
President-clect Harding had their
heads close together in close conver-
satiOn. The two men presented a
never-to- o-be~forgotten picture rs they
drove slowly along. Woodrow VIII
son. shrunken. his face drawn and
his left arm held at a peculiar
angle--Harding, the picture Of radi-
ant health and vitality.
Harding constantly tilted his nat
slightly to the cheers without with
drawing his attention from the feeble
man at his right. The physical effort
apparently was too much for the
president and he did not attempt
TO acknowledge the plaUdits At the
capitol the president was helped out
OF the car at the door. Brooks,
his giant negro valet, put his two
broad hands under his shoulders and

Special 70 The News Times:
INDIANAPOLIS Ind, Mar. A.
Tho house bill. calling for the es-
tabllshmont or a superior court in
St Joseph county. passed the senate
and goes TO Gov. Warren T. Nc
Cray for his signature.
Final passage Of the measure in
the senate creating Superior court
no. for st. Joseph county was due
20 persistent efforts Of tho ST. Jo-
seph County Bar association which
sponsored the movement. Members
OF the bar have watched tht bill
from the time il was first presented d
in the house over a month ago until
final enerossment in the upper as
sembly body.
VIII Sign Bill
That Gov. Warren T. McCray will
sign the measure is practically as
sured as the governor intimated that
he was favorable to the legislation
several weeks ago when members Of
the bar association sounded out the
state executive on the matter.
A number of leading South Bend
lawyers outlined the problem OF
congested litigation which confront
ed St. Joseph county courts at the
assembly meetings and it is 70 their
constant effort that the rider pro-
posed by stark county Legislators
providing that the courts serve the
two counties Jointly was killed.
Relieves Congestion.
The bill was reported out of the
judiciary committee Of the senate
with the rider attached and likewise
had its first reading with the Starke
county amendment lacked on. How
ever. the effect Of consistent lobby
ing by South Bend attorneys was
shown in the unanimous vote in the
upper chamber.
The addition of the second Su-
perior court will do much towards
relieving the congested court condi-
tions here, IL is said The bill pro
vides that cases now pending before
the present superior court shall be
divided Equally with Superior Court
no. .. The immense amount Of pro-
bate work that has accumulated
upon the superior docket was taken
as indicative OF the urgent need for
another tribunal in this county.
In the event that the governor
signs the bill, the court IL 20 be es-
tabHshed as soon as provision FOR
IL IS made by the county commits
sio1ers and GOV. McCray has ap-
pointed the judge
