MARION. Ohio, March 2.-The
President-elect and Mrs. Harding.
accompanied by members of the
family and secretarial stan. left
Marion at 7:20 o'clock tonight on
the private car, Superb. for wash
ington and the Inauguration. They
will arrive at 1870 o'clock tomorrow
afternoon. and will go at once to
the Presidential suite at the new
willard Hotel to wait until the
great event of Friday. His Cabinet
needs one addition He has not an
|,nouncsd Secretary of L4bors and
said tonight that he was not yet
ready to do so. Great pressure is
being brought to bear on him for
this appointment. and there is no
decisive indication what he will do.
He is also delaying announcement
of his private secretary. although
this has been decided.
Though Mr.. and Mrs. Harding
took leave of Marion today with al
most fearful regret, they will not
be deserted at the outset of their
great adventure by their old neigh
bors and friends. A special train
load of Marionites will follow Mr..
Harding to Washington tomorrow,
and the White House door will
swing to them on Friday afternoon
The ceremony at the old Harding
front porch on Mount Vernon ave-
nue. this morning was remarkable

dignity. There were 10 bands and
littl& cheering was heard. II was
unlike the old camapign days. The
people trudged out to his house
through the mud. under threatening
gray skies. silently by tha thou
sands as though each had a sense
of the bigness of the event that was
happening in The life of their fellow
citizen. The occasion was the pres
entation of a silver plaque from
the people to Mr.. and Mrs. Harding.
There were many thousand gath
cred around the porch to hear the
presentation speech by the Rev. T.
II. McAfee, pastor of Mr.. Harding's
Baptist Church. The President
elect took the occasion to utter a
promise to the whole people. In {
sense it was a little inauguration
ceremony. The plaque scene might
have been the ceremony. of the
Bible. The religious note was IN
both the presentation and in the
response. The promise of service
was there.
Il promise you." said Mr.. Hard

was a universal vague hope OF a
great moral peace. Of a new world
order arising visibly and immedi-

hope was not a mere superficial
sentiment. 1t was the intense eX-

the inner moral and spiritual force
which had upborne the peoples dur

had nerved them in an effort al
most beyond human strength. Sure
ly, surely. God had been with them
in that long night of agony. His
was the victory; His should be the
peace. And President Wilson was
looked upon as the man to make
this great peace. He had voiced
the great ideals of the new order:
his great utterances had become
the contractual basis for the ar
mistice and the peace. The ideal
ism of Wilson would surely become
the reality of the new order of
things in the peace treaty.

PREDICT FALL or
GIOLITTI IN ITALY
Especial Gable to The Washington Herald
and Chicago Tribune.)

ROME, March 2-Students of the
situation here declare that the dis
cussion in the chamber of deputies
on electoral conscriptions give the
impression that Premier Giolitti has
lost control of both himself and
parliament. ,His decision to order
general elections gives rise. to the
possibility that Signor Nitti may
show that he is the strongest man
in Italian politics.
4 Signor Nitti says il would be
idiotic to call elections when Italy
Is bleeding owing to the excesses
of the Communists in Florence. and
Trieste.
He declares the enforcement of
the law is certainty possible with
a strong government as the majority
OF the italian people want work and
they are opposed to the activities
of the Chauvinistssand Communists.
1t is declared that IL Signor Nitti
is victorious Giolitti will put off the
nomination OF an election commits
sion. 1t is generally believed the
ministry is bound to fall but it may
try to save itself through elections.
Premier Giolitti Is an old man and
II Is said he is not physically strong
enough to stand the strain in the
present storm.

Parts of Shin
Bones in Skull
AidLad's Cure

CHICAGO, March 2.-Nearly a
year ago Benjamin Schow, %, re-
ceived what were thought to be
fatal injuries, when a brick, dropped
from a third story window, crushed
his skull. An operation. was per-
formed and a four by two inch area
of the skull removed. Surgeons re-
ported to Schow's widowed mother
that there was no hope of his re-
covery.
The mother. however, was never
convinced that her son should die,
and after six months she called in a
specialist. who made a complete
study of the case. .e
On February Q. the specialist re-
moved a piece of Schow's left shin
bone and placed 1t in the middle. of
the hole in the SKULL. A later oper-
alton was performed and a piece of
shin bone from the right leg re-
moved and placed on either side of
the first piece. thus totally closing
the aperture.
Today the specialist reported to
the mother that her son was cured
and that he would be able to work
again in a few days.

Position of Terrible Greatness. 4
What is the explanation for this
tremendous tragedy, which is not
solely American, which closely con-
Germs the whole world? OF course,
there are purely American elements
in the explanation, which 1 am not
competent to speak on. But besides
the American quarrel with President
Wilson there is something to be said
on the great matters in issue. On
these / may be permitted to say a
few words.
The position occupied by President
Wilson in the worlds imagination
at the close of the great war and at
the beginning of the peace confer
ence was terrible in its greatness. 1t
was a terrible position for any mere
man to occupy. Probably TO no human
being in all history did the hopes, the
prayers. the aspirations of so many
millions of his fellows turn with such
poignant intensity as to him at the
close of the war. At a time of the
deepest darkness and despair, he had
raised aloft a light to which all eyes
had turned He had spoken divine
words of healing and consolation to
broken humanity. His lofty moral
idealism seemed for a moment TO
dominate the brutal passions which
had torn the Old world asunder.
And he was supposed to possess
the secret which would remake the
world on fairer lines. The peace
which Wilson was hrjnging to the
world was expected to be Gods
peace. Prussianism lay crushed;
brute force had failed utterly. The
moral character of the universe had
been most signally yindicated. There

WILLIAMS RESIGNS

John Skelton Williams resigned
yesterday as Comptroller of the
Currency to become head of the

mond. Va. The resignation became
effective at once.
In leaving office, Mr.. Williams Bit
! terly attacked his foes in Congress
who have refused to confirm his
renomination as Comptroller.
Raps Mclean.
my information Is that Senator
Mclean, of Connecticut, chairman
Of the Banking and Currency Com
mittee. refused to report my case
because he promised a certain par
tisan politician. not a member OF
the Senate, that he would not re-
port it," said Mr.. Williams. He
charged that Senator Mclean had
"smothered" his denomination after
the politician" had withdrawn his
opposition.
II am compelled to conclude" Mr..
Williams continued. that this Sen

In his reply accepting the resigna-
tion President Wilson said:
You have been done a gross in
justice by the way in which the
Senate Committee has handled the
question of your reconfirmation. l
can only believe, however, that time
will disclose the injustice to every
body and that the right verdict win
be rendered by opinion. il not by
one of the houses of Congress"
Mr.. Williams became a storm GEN.
ter late in his first term. He was
originally appointed in January,
1914, for a term of five years. Dur
ing the last year of that term the
banking committees of Congress
started to fight his policies. Presi-
dent Wilson renominated Mr.. Will
iams for another f1ve-year term in
January. 1919.~ Public hearings
were held on the nomination. which
was finally reported unfavorably to
the Senate. The President sent th(
nomination back to the Senate
again in June. 1919, December, 1919
and December. 1920. but the Senate
refused to act on 1t.

one-sided score of 8 to /.
New York's only tally came through

rest snapped good one into the New
York net. An individual effort by Brit

two and Campbell. converting a corner
kick, made it 3 to 0.
