DAUGHERTY STORMY
IN POLITICS OF OHIO
Career Linked With Harding
Since Latter Was Elected
Lieutenant-GOvernOr.
WAS CLOSEST ADVISER
President Elect Refused to
Break Relations When
Enemies Demanded.

Harry NJ Daugherty has been Warren
G. Harding's closest adviser since the
latter's name first was mentioned FOR
the Presidency in the days before the
Chicago convention. Before the nom
nation of Mr.. Harding Mr.. Daugherty
was known as n lawyer OF Columbus
and as a man who had become one OF the
most important factors - Repupicah
politics in Ohio.
The history of Mr.. Daugherty's politi-
cal career begins in the days of Mark
Hanna, when he was member or the
inner councils of the State party. Upon
the death of Hanna in 1904 Mr.. DauSh-
erty began TO make himself felt more
and more His path, however. was a
rough one. His Senatorial ambitions
were blocked in 1916 by the opposition
faction and he was checkmated again
In 1918 when he tried TO turn the nom
ination for Governor of Ohio for Frank
b. Willis, who now is Senator-elect.
Mr. Daugherty'S enemies declared he
was dead politically when in 1919 the
opposition overthrow him completely by
reorganizing the State party and plac-
ing control in the hands of an advisory
committee in which he had no place
and from which his friends also had
been omitted. Mr. Harding was one or
those. however. who believed in DauGh-
erty and stuck to him. Although 1t is
said the Senator was advised that his
candidacy would be opposed if Daugh-
erty was allowed to have anything to
do with it. Mr.. Harding nevertheless let
him manage his pre-convention cam
paign.
The friendship between Mr.. Daugh-
erty and the President-elect dates back
to the days before Mr. Harding was
Lieutenant Governor of Ohio. Mr
Daughelty has been credited with OBJ
tanning that nomination for Mr.. Harding
and also of obtaining the latter's nomi-
nation for United States Senator in
1914 Friends say that Mr.. Daugherty
saw Presidential timber in Mr.. Harding
when the latter was more or less incon-
spicuous politically in his home State.
! His name also was at one time con-
| sidered for Governor of the State,
! Mr. Daugherty was born January 26.
| 1860 His father was John II. Daugherty
| of Washington Court House, Fayette
county. Ohio The Daugherty family
moved to Ohio from Virginia in the
pioneer days. Mr.. Daugherty worked
/ hard as a boy and finally saved enough
| money to enable him to attend the Uni
versity of Michigan. from which he was
graduated in 1891. He served for time
as Washington Court House CORE
! spondent of the Cincinnati En- ld,'er, but
! returned to law school and, upon being
! admitted to the bar, entered the office

Sides and no difficult obstacles remain.
Leonid Krassine. the Russian repre-

quoted as saying there is only a few
days supply there and closing of the
repair shops is threatened, many OF the
locomotive boilers having been frozen.
The newspaper adds there is no hope

HAYS MAY HOLD PARTY
OFFICE UNTIL SUMMER
HIies Is Eliminated by His
DUN Decision.

Friends Of VIII II. Hays In this city
yesterday said it was his desire to re
tire from the craftsmanship Of the Re-
publican National Committee as soon
as possible after he takes up his work
as Postmast ster-Gene in Washington.
They predicted. however. that it might
be several months before a change in
the chairmanship was made.
According to these men IT is the de-
sire of the President and of Mr.. Hays
himself 10 lay out a definite plan of
campaign for the Congress elections
of 1873 before the present chairman
surrenders the helm TO another Not
only to fix upon a definite course OF
action. but also 10 see it under way is
the desire of Mr.. Hays.
How long this may take is uncertain,
but the chances are that Mr.. Hays
will not remain at the head Of the COM
mittee after the meeting TO be held
for the consideration Of the report OF
the special committee named to work
out plan for reducing the represen IA
ton in the Southern States. 1t had
been hoped this report would be ready
for the meeting Of the National Cont
mittee TO be held in Washington on
March 3, but that has been found inn
possible So il Is inevitable that an
other meeting of the full committee will
be held before the early summer.
1t is known that the suggestion OF
Senator New of Indiana as his success
sor is particularly pleasing TO Mr. Hays.
He would also welcome the choice OF
A. IT. Hert of Kentucky. Both men
worked in closest harmony with him
during the last campaign.
Under no circumstances will Charles
u. Hilles consent to take the chalr-
manship, although some of his friends
in New York State have been urgine
him TO consider it. He feels the chair
man should be in a position TO devote
practically all his time to the work as
has Mr.. Hays. His business interests
Mnnld not permit this.

CALM STRANGER SAVES
MANY IN THEATRE FIRE

PRov1pENcE, Feb. 21.-Citizens of Wes-
terley tonight were seeking the identity
of a person whose cool headedness un-
doubtedly prevented loss of life among
400 spectators in the Lyric Theatre in
that town during a fire which caused
damage of $4,000.
A motion picture show was in prog
ress in the theatre on the second floor
of the building when the unidentified
man saw tongue of fame appear
through the floor between his feet. He
quietly arose and made his way to the
head usher. whom he informed. The
usher then turned on all the lights and
told the spectators it was necessary to
vacate the theatre quietly and at once.

THREATENS TOINTER
WASHINGTON'S BODY
Member of Family Demands
Names Of COnrads Come
Off Mt. Vernon Slab.
SIZES UP HIS RELATIVE
Says Greatest Thing He Did
Was Refusal to Become
King of United States.

NAZARETH, Pa. Feb. 21.-The Wash
ngton family wants the family burial
plot in Mount Vernon closed to the pub
lie. 1t wants the. names of the Con-
RAIDS, who are descended from some of
the Washingtons. removed from the
monument in the enclosure. maintaining
that some OF the members of the Con-
rad family whose names appear are not
even buried there.
These declarations were made here
tonight by George Steptoe Washington,
whose father and mother were descended
from two brothers of the nations first
President. He spoke before the Co
lonial Association Of Nazareth Hall, a
school here.
Recalling that the family burial plot
was not included in the sale of Mount
Vernon to the association which now
owns it, Mr. Washington said:
"The family reserves the right to close
off this space at any time, and the right
to inter the two bodies of George Wash
ington and his wife-and once inferred,
they will not be on view. The associa-
tion and the public have no rights on
this half acre. The association, without
any right, allowed the Conrads TO put
the names of some deceased members on
the monument in this reserved space.
These names viii have to be removed
Dealing with the Washingtons in the
world war, Mr. Washington first pointed
out that they had become a large family.
"One OF my cousins" he said. has
nine sons. and all enlisted In the late
war. Two went to Russia and four to
France and Italy.
stT.t. "a, l., n
life. l suppose they feel that the ex-
ample set is too great to live up to.
There is one who is an admiral. The
Washingtons you know, hold unique
place in our history 1t is said no Con-
gress will vote TO do anything for a
Washington, for fear of starting q
precedent from which much might be
asked. When our country entered the
world war some papers asked what part
the Washingtons would take some even
wrote to members of the family asking
them I will say none replied. None
asked for any favors. Many enlisted as
privates.
Going back to George Washington,
did you ever stop to think what was
the greatest act of his life? Think II
over. I believe the accepted thought OF
his family is that his greatest act was
to refuse to be made Kfng of the United
States. Think what 1t would mean TO
us all What a difference it would
have made to this grand free country
of ours.
1--WE usually think of George as q
fighter and a public spirited man. but
there is another SIDE ana a mighty good
one He was fond of the ladies and
| had several very desperate love affairs.
He was a hard fighter. hard worker
hard lover. and. like most of the
! Washingtons, was fond of his family
and devoted to his mother"
