the White House tonight with Presi-
dent Harding approved TIE President S
suggestion for the abolition of the
twelve hour work day, when and If
practicable.
At the dinner conference President

propriety of such action.
Judge Gary acting as spokesman
for the guests wren the party dis
persed said the sole purpose of the
conference was to consider the ques-
ton whether or not it is practicable
and desirable to abolish the twelve
hour work day.
The President stated" Judge Gary

fere with the natural and legitimate
progress of business nor to do any,
thing except TO assist industry to meet
II possible what is apparently strong

New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. c., May Is.
The walkover of Senator Pepper in
the Pennsylvania Republican primaries
has decided the two most important
political phases of the bonus raid on
the public Treasury.
The first is that the Republican
voters in the Keystone State have
overwhelmingly indorsed the position
of President Harding that the bonus
business should be dropped unless it is
financed by the sales tax.
or equal Importance is the decisive
rebuke administered by Pennsylvania
voters to American Legion officials for
attempting to use the patriotic power
of that organization to loot the Treas
ury and dictate the political opinions
of it's members.
The effect of the Pennsylvania judg-
ment on the bonus raid has been pro-
nounced and instantaneous. The most
ardent bonus Senators who clamored
for immediate action for purposes
purely political admit the blow de-
livered by Pennsylvania is the most
serious yet suffered.

The figures of the contest between
Senator Pepper and his competitor,

public attitude toward the bonus that
the Senatorial advocates of il are COM
PEELED to admit there is but one ex-
planation-the voting population OF
the country, regardless of the claims
of the officials of the American Legion,
are against the whole scheme.
Up to date two candidates for the
United States Senate and seven men,

for II, have gone down to defeat. They

continued, "a resolution was adopted
In which il was unanimously resolved
that a committee of five from the
steel industry be appointed by the
President of the American Steel and
Iron Institute to make scientific and

the steel industry their findings.
THE meeting was harmonious and
it is hoped much good may result

were not under pressure He urged
that they give earnest consideration to

not be postponed and an issue, which,
If not met, would rise again to inter-

President Harding's sentiment came
as a surprise. He said that in indi-
