DEMOCRATS FLIRTED |.
 WITH EX-PRESIDENT
Letters to Grant, Given Publicity To- day, Showed They Wanted Him
 As Standard Bearer

Chicago, April 27.--~Four years be- fore Gen. Ulysses S. Grant was elected president on the republican ticket, hv was approached with q view to mak ing him the democratic candidate an offer which he promptly and de- cisively rejected according to letters published for the first time today
 The historical paradox was re- vealed on Grants centennial anniver- sary today by Chicagoan, John c. Burns, son of Col Barnabas Burns, a Civil war soldier. In 1863 the war democrats" of Ohio chose Col. Burns chairman of their central committee.
 Col. Burns wrote asking the Union leader If his name could be presented to the democratic convention.
 In reply the general said that he was astonished and did not know of any indication he had ever made that he would be a candidate for office.
 For years later Gen. Grant became a republican president.

OCEAN PHENOMENON
 OFF COAST OF J. s.
An, Abnormal Ground Swell Is Puzzling Photographic Officers

Washington, April 27.-An unusual phenomenon was today puzzling naval | officers attached to the Photographic office of the Navy department. An abnormal ground swell off the North Carolina coast was reported To the Photographic office as occurring yesterday afternoon by the naval col Tier Prometheus in a dispatch which said:
 "At p. m.. April 26, 1922, in lat itude 35 degrees 50 minutes north, longitude 75 degrees west, with smooth sea and light northwesterly airs suddenly encountered extremely heavy ground swels from 65 degrees. The swels were approximate ly 30 feet through to crest. The dis turbance lasted about two hours. Continuous soundings at intervals of four minutes showed no bottom at 130 fathoms. At one time thousands of porpoises were leaping into the air. During the remainder of the after noon experienced extraordinary cur rnts varying in direction and strength but generally setting northeasterly; verified by astronomical observations and radio compass bearings"
 Some of the older seagoing officers at the Navy department ventured the opinion that the disturbance might have been the result of some subter- ranean disturbance, an earthquake or subterrestrial shifting. That it was not of local origin, they said is evi- denced by the inability to find bottom at 130 fathoms. ..

GENEROUS SUBSIDY
 NEEDED BY MARINE
Sea Pairing Man Tells Congressman | s. Merchant Marine Will Dis
 appear Otherwise.

Washington, April 27.-Disappear- ance of the American merchant marine from the seas unless a gen erous" subsidy is provided was pre- dicted today at the joint congressional hearing on the administration ship subsidy bill by Captain John F. Milli- ken, secretary treasurer of the Nep- tune association of licensed masters and mates of ocean and coastwise steam vessels. As the first labor rep resentative to testify Captain Miliken reported that his association composed of approximately 1000 licensed mas ters and deck officers favored early enactment of the pending legislation.
 We believe" he declared that 1t is virtually necessary for our country to have an adequate merchant marine with legislative protection and gov ernment assistance ito deliver the goods of our country in time of peace, to spread American doctrines and to develop American business throughout the world and to assist our navy in time of war"

COOLIDGE DWELLS
 ON GRANTS HONOR
Tells Of His Greatness in War
 and in Peace

Washington, April 27,-Thc great
 ness of Gen, Grant in peace as well as in war was dweIt upon by Vice
 President Coolidge today at the un- yelling of the Grant memorial here on The occasion Of the centeunial an nlversary Of tho birth of tho former president and [ Dion general
 "lt ls Tn response to an increasing sentiment of gratitude and patriot lsm,' the vice Mcsidcnt said, that national action has get apart this day to observe the centennial anniversary of the birth of d great American who was sent into tho world endowed with n greatness easy 10 understand, yet difficult to describe, the highest type Of intellectual power simplicity and dlreclness; the highest type of char acter--tidelity and honesty, He will forever hold the admiration of n peo- pie in whom these qualities abide.
 our country and the world may well consider the simplicity and di- rcctness which marked the greatness of Gen Grant, In war his object was the destruction of the opposing army, He knew that task was difficult. He knew that the price would be high yet amid abuse and criticism. amid misunderstanding and jealousy he did not alter his course. He paid the price, He accomplished the result. He wasted no time in attempting to find some substitute for victory.
 He held fast to the same principle in time of peace. Around him was the destruction which the war had wrought. The economic condition of the country was depressed by great financial panic. He refused to seek refuge in any fiction. He knew that sound values and a sound economic could not be created by law alone, but only through the long and toilsome application of human ef- fort to put forth under wise law. He laid the foundation of national well fare on which the nation has stood in every time of storm and stress. His policy was simple and di- rect and eternally true
 He was a man who lived the great of life. As Lincoln could put truth into words so Grant could put truth into action, How truly he stands out as the great captain of republic. Through and through he was genuine. He represented power. The great issues of the world must be met and met squarely.
 A grateful republic has raised this monument not as a symbol of war but as a symbol of peace"

This country will never be the same until we adopt a more liberal attitude toward the conduct of our citizens. Beer and light wines are no sin. I'm not for the saloon but I do stand for moderation in this thing we call prohibition.
 I'm for bobbed hair--you can see that'-and she losses her head--"and Pm for short skirts too, but not too short"
 And so the political speech rolls on until your nails are finished.
 Is the campaign successful?
 Miss Thomas says so. She says at the conclusion of each speech out of 10 of her male customers raise their neatly manicured right hands and swear they'll mark "N" opposite her name on the ballot next fall.
 Miss Thomas will be the youngest senator who ever sat in the Ohio up- per chamber-if she's not beaten by one of the two male candidates.
