LORD NORTHCL|FFE
To TAKE LONG REST
BY HIRAM X. MoDERwELL

Especial Gable to The Atlanta Journal and
Chicago Daily News-Copyright, 1929
LONDON June 2z.-Direct in
formation concerning Lord North
cliffe's illness is confined to the
formal announcement that he will
be obliged to take long rest. Va
rious circumstances give the Incl
dent pathetic note.
Suddenly came an interruption In
his much discussed articles on Ger
many and his pamphlet Newspapers
and Their Millionaire Proprietors"
which is filled with personal, though
unmalicious, remarks concerning
his journalistic rivals.
About the same time came the
suit for libel brought against him
by two Of his principal business
lieutenants, Sir Andrew Card and
Walter Fish, which revealed the Sc
rious disunity Of his organization.
The London Observer, which is
not accustomed to publish idle Cos
sip says. Certain peremptory or
ders Of an extraordinary character
have been received from his lord
ship and there were important
designations in consequence" sur
prising rumors thereupon filled
Fleet street, but the announcement
of the serious state of Lord North
cliffe's health has cleared the sit
uation and the designations have
been withdrawn. at least tenn
porarily.
The Northcliffe interests are be.
ing administered for the time be-
ing by an informal committee of
the most trusted employees. It is be-
lieved in Fleet street that Lord
Northcliffe will be obliged to retire
from personal control Of his news
papers for a long time. It is too
early to forecast whether his with
drawal will effect a change of pol
icy. Many Englishmen have felt re-
Gently that Northcliffe's personal
antipathy to Lloyd George rather
than sober judgment on national
politics dominated the course of his
newspaper.
Northcliffe's health has been fail
ing for more than a, year, this is
regarded as being the cause Of his
abandonment of his political ambi.
tions. At one time certainly he
hoped for an important office in the
Lloyd George government. During
his world tour his health was in
precarious state.
Lord Northcliffe's ill health and
the consequent effect on the admin
istration and policies of his news
papers is regarded here as not mere
ly a private matter. England re.
CARDS the Times still with reverence
and as the authoritative mouthpiece
Of the British empire. standing
above party politics as a public in.

sonal organ.

USE
OF RIVER IS URGED

ASHEVILLE, N. c., June o.
Combination Of interests between
agencies interested in navigation and
those seeking further development Of
waterpowers could convert the Ten
nessee river into stream capable of
carrying the tonnage equal to that
Of the Rhine, and make the river
fully as useful commercially as the
opinion Of Major Harold G. Fiske,
district army engineer, Of Chatta-
nooga, Tenn, expressed in an address
before the waterpower conference Of
the Southern Appalachian states here.
This could be brought about, the
army engineer said, by the construc-
ton Of large impounding basins at
the headquarters of the river in the
Appalachians to hold back the sur
plus water in seasons Of heavy rain
fall and distribute it over the dry
periods. The requirements OF river
commerce alone are insufficient to
warrant the investment of the mill
lions require, he said, but a union
of plans with commercial WATERFOWL
er development is easily within the
range Of possibility. Utilizing the
impounded floods for generation Of
electric power, Major Fiske said,
while controlling river flow, would
justify the expense of initial con-
struction and would prevent against
floods.
Major Fiske, commenting on the
Muscle Shoals development, said
when the plant is completed and
placed in operation there will be
two impounding lakes with total
length Of seventy miles Of smooth
water, free of shoals, suitable for
navigation at all seasons, and there
will be a minimum output of 100000
horsepower from the two hydro-elec-
trio plants. ..
Gerard H. Mathes, district engin.
eer, Chattanooga, and J. C. Will
liams, manager developing engineer,
Southern Railway, are on the pro-
gram today. A permanent water
power congress will be formed dur
ing the closing session this after
noon. The delegates were enter
tanned at reception given by Mrs.
George W. Vanderbilt last evening.

STRIKE VOTE ISSUES.
MAY BE REDUCED.

CHICAGO, June 22.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press.)-Renoval Of one of
the three issues on which railway
employees are taking their strike
vote was in prospect today follow
ing announcement by the railroad
labor board that hearings will open
Monday on the contract controversy
IN which thirty roads are charged
with farming out" work contrary
to the boards orders.
seventeen contract cases filed
against various roads by the unions
nave been heard by the board, and
decisions in these cases are expected
soon.
In it's decision in the case against
the Indiana Harbor Belt railroad the
board ruled last month against the
farming out" system, and indicated
that the same general principles
would be followed in future de-
cisicns.
Posting Of the pending cases for
all early hearing brought the posi-
bility that one of the chief griev-
a;'ces of the rail unions in the strike
referendum would be wiped out.
The strike ballots are being tabu-
lated as rapidly as they are received
so the returns can be turned over
to the general committee of ninety.
which is expected to start the can
vass of the vote Sunday.
Railroad executives continued to
express belief that there will be no
walkout next month despite the dec.
laratiorA by union leaders that a sus-
pension will be authorized if the
rank and file of the rail unions favor
a strike.
John Scott, secretary of the rail-
way employees department Of the
American Federation of Labor, de-
clared that the baIloting thus far
appears to disclose strong sentiment
in favor of a strike in protest
against the $4,000, 900 wage reduc-
ton and other decisions by the

CLOQUET, Mimi, June 22.-Of-
ficially notified today Of her NOM
ination for the United States SEN
ate and proclaimed thereby as vir-
tual leader of the Democratic par
ty in Minnesota, Mrs. Peter OLE
son declared that she would have
to forget politics for the next two
weeks and devote herself to a. be-
lated spring house cleaning.
cit will take at least two weeks
to put my house in order" she
said when informed that she was
the choice of MINI esota Democrats
to lead the fight on Senator Frank
B. Kellogg. ST have been away
from it so long, that it is fright
fully out of order. But aim to
put it right and then open my
campaign"
Mrs. Oleson also wants to make
a few bingham dresses for her IT,
year-old daughter and preserve
some Strawberries before she climbs
into her Ford sedan to start her
swing around the state.
here as to just how Senator KEEL
logg will meet the whirlwind cam
paign that Mrs. Oleson has in
mind. She is a personality, to- be
reckoned with in any political
fight and she is going to make a
personal appeal to the voters from
one end of the state to the other.
Many friends of Senator Kellogg
l. ohonnnS Of
election seem as ten to one to any
possible chance for Mrs. Oleson,
nevertheless he may feel compell-
ed himself to take the stump be-
fore the ballots fall in November.
"I am very proud to be the
first woman ever nominated by one
Of the old parties for the senate"
said Mrs. Oleson today, "and l
will make campaign that will do
honor to the women Of the coun-
try. Win or lose, Senator Kellogg
will know he has been in a fight
this fall"
Mrs. Oleson doesn't look much
like a fighter. She only weighs 12O
pounds, but she has fire in her
eyes all the time and she doesn't
appear to be afraid that she will
be COMPOUNDED by the legal tech
nique of her adversary.
One significant feature OF Mrs.
blossoms tight is that she has been
offered the help Of nearly every
prominent Democrat in the coun-
try. kilograms have poured in up
on her from every section.
Senator Pat Harrison, Of Missls-
sippi; former Governor James M.
Cox; William G. McAdoo and Will
liam Jennings Bryan are among the
oratorical lights who have pledged
their personal support. The Demo
cratic national committee will ar
range at once to make its 1nflu
ence felt Inc the campaign, Whlie
the national women's party has
notified Mrs. Oleson that the full
strength of that organization will
be thrown in the balance for her.
On her campaign Mrs. Oleson
will be accompanied by her nus
band and daughter.
Mrs. Oleson believes that some
day woman will be president OF
the United States.
Meantime Mrs. Oleson is sweep
ing the dust out of the house, her
husband is beating the rugs; Mary,
the daughter, is Strengthening the
pots and pans in the kitchen, ana
the Ford is "rearin' to go" in the
zinc garage. The Oleson clan soon
will be on the march.
