After the Cabinet officers had left
preparations were made for the
Presidents last walk from the Of

whole executive office force stood
in silence watching him gamely
make his way through the exec

Walking on level ground he
needed no assistance other than
his cane and would take none
other. When steps were to be me-

there to submit his resignation,
which he had tried to give three
times before.

Mr.. Mellon as decided.
Mr.. Harding's disposal Of the Labor
portfolio is expected to result in the
announcement of James ]. Davis,
Of Pittsburgh, as his choice, for the
reason that he thinks Mr.. Davis, as
a former union man and now an
employer and head Of a great frater-
nal organization, will be better able
to represent all OF labor. union and
non-union, than a Federation of
Labor man. There have been oppos-
ing groups working upon Mr.. Hard
ing for this matter. One was the
direct labor men and the other those
who look upon labor as a broader
problem. one that must take into
consideration the welfare Of the
non-union men.
No Diplomatic Assignments.
In response to reports that Col.
George w. Harvey had been offered
and had accepted the post Of Am
bassador to Great Britain. Mr. Hard
ing reiterated that no definite diplo-
matte appointments would be an
nounced until two weeks after his
Inauguration.

morning, Mr.. and Mrs. Harding Wis

Harding dropped in at the Star

his newspaper plant, after which he
went down to the Marion Club to
meet his neighbors. The President
elect spent the rest OF the day at
his headquarters.
The old Harding home on Mount

At IL o'clock this morning, however.
some of the old life of the place

BERLIN, Mar. 1.-"Russia Is sick
of war and will not engage In war
fare sgain unless forced TO do So"
This statement was made to me
today by Leonid Krassin. Russia's
trade envoy to England. who Is
spending a week in Berlin on the
way back to London from Moscow.
Later in the interview. while dis
cussing America. he declared:
Soviet Russia will not make any
advances toward the Harding ad-
ministration. We want. first. to see
what the attitude Of the new ad-
ministration will be-"
Appeared Worried.
Krassin, once the most influential
Russian industrial leader. says he
gave his services to the Soviets be-
cause he saw no other possibility
of governing the country. He re-
ceived me in q plain, second-class
hotel room. He seemed pessimistic
and wornout-in great contrast to
the optimistic, buoyant leader who
left Russia for London a few months
ago.
II am going to London wednes-
day with a sort of ultimatum," said
Krassin. The British commercial
agreement was found unacceptable
to Moscow. l am bringing a coun-
ter proposal, which Is our final word.
England and Russia bargained long
without coming to an understand
ing, and should Russia's proposals
not be accepted the treaty is OF.
Hope for Recognition.
Russia must trade with England
or with America. We have no pref
erence. and should the Harding ad-
ministration show a favorable atti-
tude we would seek to open nego-
From the tone of the Moscow
press there is a general hope

can government, which will be

will consider opening Industrial re-
lations with US.
Personally i am not sanguine OF
success. Evidently America fears
Eolshevism. II will be impossible for
US to engage in trade with America
unless we have our own representa-
tive in New York.
Incidentally, / want to state that

successor to our former envoy in
New York, absolutely does not rep

contract. However, Vanderlip Is
now in Revel, Esthonia, reopening
negotiations.
"As far as know. Mr.. vanderlip
never represented himself as a
friend or envoy from Mr.. Harding"
asked Mr.. Krassin whether It
were true that the Russians were
gathering great armies on the
Polish and Rounianian frontiers for
spring offensive. Krassin shrug-
ged his shoulders and said, in Rus
sian fashion: I'VE are SO sick of
war, We hope for years of peace.
We do not want Polish or other ter
ritory. and seek only a chance to
regenerate Russia through industry
and agriculture.
This we are unable to do, be-
cause of the allied blockade. II
the blockade continues we can go
on living. We shall wage war only
when we are attacked or are in des-
peration."
