HARDING WON'T PLAY
FOR STAKES AT GOLF
Willing to Meet Pope But Not With
Greenvillc Oifice us Prize.

st. Augustine, Fla, Feb. 19.-An-
other projected classic Of the world
OF sport went by the boards today
when Presdent-elect Harding declin-
ed challenge from the postmaster
at Greenvillo, S. c., to match skill
with him on the golf links with a re-
| appointment to the postmastership as
a stake. To the challengers manager,
Mr. Harding wrote that he regarded
himself as only a miserable player
and was unwilling ito have the ad-
ministration weakened by basing it's
attitude on my incapacity at golf"
But he added that he liked the post
masters sporty nclination," and
If the conditions Of the challenge were
removed, he was willing to accept a
match whenever opportunity offered.
The proposal to play for tho post
mastcrship was made in formal fash
ion by Louis Shcrfessee, who describ-
ed himself as sclf-apponted manager
for the postmaster, Thomas II. Pope,
a Wilson appointcc
Writing to Mr.. Sherfessee, the pres
ident-clcct said to Mr.. Pope that he
felt it would be safer to recommis-
sion him on the advice Of his friends
than to risk the appointment on the
fortunes OF the links.
"As matter Of fact" Mr.. Hard
ing's letter added, IL am giving no
consideration at this time to any of
the district appointments and | take
it that Mr. Pope can sit easy for the
present and have no worry about his
situation. The ultimate course OF
the administration is quite another,
though | am sure there has been no
definite policy decided upon"
Grccnvillc. Feb. 9.-Postmastcr
Thomas II. Pope. who challenged
P.csidcnt-elccl Harding to a game OF
Scf to decide whether he should be
rcaDpointcd postmaster at Green
Vile, today announced that it is
agreeable with him to withdraw the
stake. He said he cherishoo lively
desire to match his skill with Mr.
| Harding on the links. Mr.. Pope's man
agcr Louis Sherfcssce, suggests that
the game Gc played in Washington
next May.

CHESTER SHERIFF
WOUNDED IN RAID
Receives Load in Neck OH Entering
House. Mystery Surrounds.

Receives Load in Neck OH Entering
House. Mystery Surrounds.
Chester, Feb. 19.-Sheriff ID. Gober
Anderson Of Chester county was shot
In the neck this afternoon and Is at
the Chester sanatorium, where he was
brought Immediately.
Sherin Anderson and Deputy J. G..
Howe and Constable R. G. Smith had
gone to tho McAfoe place, about nine
miles from Chester, for the purpose
Of locating still, and 1t was while
they were hunting the still that the
wound was received Sheriff Ander-
son had attempted to enter negro
house, but found all doors locked, and
went through the kitchen window.
From the kitchen he was entering an
other room in the house, when the
shotgun went off, a part Of the load
striking him in the neshy part Of the
neck, just below the chin. 1t is
thought that when he opened the
door the gun, which belonged to the
negroes 'living in the house fell or
had been set SO that it would shoot
when any one opcned the door.
1t was seen that Sheriff Anderson
was possibly dangerously wounded
and those with him immediately
rushed him to Chester for medical at
tcntion. Hence the actual surround
ings in the house were not inyesti-
gated, and it Is not certain that there
was any one in the house at the time
the gun went off.

probably something the matter with

ATTACKED FOR GIFT
n. Y. State Federation Of Labor As

Board.

sails Him for Gift to Education
Board.
New York, Feb. 20.--An attack
against John D. Rockefeller for his
recent donation of s7O,OOO,O0O to the
general education board was made il
statement issued tonight by the New
York State Federation OF Labor. The
statement, made public by Peter ]
Brady, head Of the federations com
mittee on education, declared the gift
as we'll as other activities Of the board
were moves to place academic free
dom in control Of capitalistic sys-
tenn.
The millions donated to the gen
eral education board" said the state
ment, have been accumulated as a
result Of a type of Industrial and fin
:ncial control that characterized one
OF the darkest pages on our economic
history. The acquisition Of the swol-
len fortune that John D. Rookie
feller now distributes would never
have been possible under an enlight-
cnCd social system.
However, apart from the taint
which besmirchcs such mcalth, organ
i2od labor objects vchemcntly to its
distribution to educational insti-
tutions. II is inconccivaDle that un-
der Il proper mode of government, cdu-
catinnal institutions that serve a vital
function in our body polite. shall not
derive needed revenues from the mu-
nicipality, the state or the federal
government, rather than the millions
from this donor.
The E70,OOO,000 donation was made
by Mr. Rockefeller few weeks ago.
$50,O0006 of which was given to va
rious colleges and universities for aid
in increasing teachers salaries and
S20,0OO.O00 for the Improvement Of
medical education
The labor statement quoted the fed
cral industrial relations commissions
appointed by President Wilson as say
ing Of the Rockefeller foundations:
"Hhc money with which the Rookie
fcllcr foundation was created and Is
maintained consists OF the wages OF
workers in American industrio. These
wages are withheld by means of eco.
nomic Wrossumc, violation OF lew, Gun
ming and disorder practiccd over a
series of years by the founder and
certain OF his business associates"
continued the statement, that sub
ontinucd the tatcmcnt. that sub
sides such as those granted by the
general education board, even though
