Harding Declares World Is Crying for Supply of Raw
 Materials
ByAssocIsted Press

Cleveland, Ohio, October 9.-Presi- dent Harding in a letter read to the delegates of the twenty-fifth Ameri- can Mining congress which formally opened a six day session here to- night expressed his regret at being unable to accept an invitation to at tend .he congress, adding that all the world nowadays is heard cry ing out for supplies of raw materials for it's commerce and industries"
 The presidents letter in part fol- lows;
 "The riches of our American soil have been drawn upon in this con- nection with liberalltyi that verges upon prodisality, and still the de- mand Is for more and yet more. Our problem of wise liberality tempered by a proper purpose of conserving these great resources, should be al ways in our minds. It is not de- sirable that we should be either ex- travagant on one side or niggardly on the other
 Above all it is vitally necessary that if we are to make the most of our rich endowment in this realm we must Seek 10 develop IL With iuli regard for the human interests in- volyed. Our natural resources will. not in the end have served us their greatest purpose if we find that in their development we have exploited the great army of humanity which is dependent upon these industries" !"
 The address of welcome was deliv- cred by Newton D. Baker president of the Cleveland Chamber of Com merce and former Secretary of War.

 One thing I will say for the pecu- liarly gifted MT. Cayce. I don't believe the hundreds of peo- pie A whose written testimonials Che has many of them in their own hand writing) would put down on cold white paper such startling state ments regarding his powers, if he had not benefited them in some measure. At any rate Mir. Cayce's case is interesting, whether psychic, mystic, clairvoyant, mind reader or spiritual ist, what you will. It is not for me to say or you and he has the founda. tion of successful achievement writ ten fuminously upon his life work in the simple fact that he believes In himselfi

 Address
Ky Associated Press

Chicago. October s.--A monument to Eugene Field, "The Children's s Poet,p was unveiled today in Lincoln Park, the gift of thousands of school children, who contributed their pen- nies, and of the Ferguson memorial fund.
 Melville E. Stone. counselor and former general manager of the As sociated Press, who brought MT. Field to Chicago while MT. Stone was editor of the Chicago Daily News. and the Rev. William F. Barton spoke.
 Jean Field Foster and Robert Eu- gene Field, grandchildren of the poet, unveiled the statue. In his eulogy to MT. Field, MT. Stone said:
 Tuning his Iute to humanity's burden of care and grief, he sang the song of the helpless. He was mo- tably the poet of sympathy. He was a many sided character. He had profound religious. even spiritual na- ture. The Puritan strain of his an- cestry frequently cropped out in his daily life He had secret fopdness for Cotton Mather and Jonathan Ed wards and all the other sturdy cap tains Of the church militant. Yet over all there spr9dd the warm. mel low rays of human sympathy which prompted some of the sweetest and most pathetic verses of our language. He sounded all the depths of tender emotion and voiced the agonized cry ot bereaved motherhood and sister, hood and childhood, with the tune and timbre and tempo of a master
 The monument depicts a breeding angel bending over two sleeping children, dropping the flowers of poetry upon them. Verses of "Wyn- ken, Blynken and Nod'' and the

NO PLANS BEING MADE
 FOR PEACE CONFERENCE

smyrna, October 9.-No prepa- rations are being made here for re- ceiving delegates to peace confer ence, and local officials express the belief that there is no likelihood of such a conference being held here, despite the suggestion made by Mustapha Renal Pasha to the allies.
 There is no possibility of securing adequate quarters in the burned town to house the conference and the Vari- ous delegates who would come to Smyrna. Moreover the telegraphic facilities are so limited that both the delegates and the newspaper men would have to be strictly rationed in the use of the lines even if the cables were fully restored.
 It is believed here that Renal is not likely to insist upon holding q conference in an atmosphere so hostile as Smyrna.
