The menacing shadow of a new
European war~centered in the Bal

loomed before the allied powers
today. -. -.
Hasty and vigorous action has
been taken by the allies to pre-
vent the Turks, arrogant with VIC

TO DEPART
General Condition Is Favorable
and Latest Report Brings
F. Optimism.

Mrs. Warren G. Harding, wife
Of the President, ultimately must
undergo a major operation for
the removal Of a "locked kid
ney" before her life is entirely
out of danger.
Such is the chief conclusion Of
the two-day consultation Of the
six physicians, who apparently
have carried the First Lady Of
the Land, temporarily at least,
through a crisis in which she sew
eral times was on the very verge
of death.
1t is not yet time, however, to
say that the critical stages have
been finally passed, the physicians
announce, although now there is
a basis for expectation of re-
covery.
Conclusions Of Physicians.
Unanimous conclusions of the con.
sulting physicians are these:
A major operation ultimately to
polong, II not save, the patients
life, this to involve the removal Of
A possible minor operation ON
the other kidney to increase "elim-
nations" and avert further toxic
poisoning.
A long and complete rest for the
patient In any eventuality, In order
that she may be physically pre-
pared for the major operation.
Those are the outstanding points
on which the two consulting sur
geons in the case--Drs. Charles
Mayo, Of Rochester. Mimi, and
John Finney, Of Baltimore-are def
initely agreed. and constitute the
factors prompting the physicians to
defer attempts toward surgical re-
lief at this time.
DIR. c. E. Sawyer, the Presidents
personal physician. concurred In this
program, as did his associates. DR..
Joel Boone, DR.. George T. Hard
ing. and DR.. Carl Sawyer.
The steady Improvement In MS.
Harding's condition will make u
possible for DIR. Charles Mayo the
! famous surgeon, who arrived here
Sunday, to return today to his home
\ In Rochester, MINI. y
The following statement to this
effect was issued by the White
House at 1880 O'Clock.
"Owing to the substance Of sur:
gical requirements In the case OF
Mrs. Harding, DIR. Charles Mayo
expects 70 leave for home this
afternoon or this evening""
Vigil VIII Not Cease.
An incessant vigil will be main
tanned at the bedside OF Mrs. Hard.
ing by the physicians. She will be
under continuous observation, and
daily blood tests will be made To de.
termine the course Of the infectious
| malady, which constantly menaces
! her life as long as the badly diseased
