Nebraska Farmers to Store Wheat.

Lincoln, Neb.-That the farmers of
Nebraska intend to hold their wheat
for a better price is indicated, state
officers say, by the numerous applica-
tons, accompanied by the necessary
fees, to have elevators designated as
storage warehouses under the Ne
braska law. More than 200 licenses
have already been issued. Under the
state law every elevator automatical-
ly becomes a storage warehouse If it
keeps grain for more than ten days
without paying for It,

OF the United States from European
affairs, but believed this country
would have to do its part in the res
toratlOn Of Europe to peace and sta
billty. This feeling became more evil
dent early in 1923 when he proposed
that America should accept member
ship in the International Court of JUS
tiCe which had been founded under
the auspices of the League of Nations.
The President was as inslstent as ever
that this country should keep out Of
the league. but believed the court was
or would be Independent of the greater
organization. Against the advice of
some leaders Of his party, he reiterated
this advice on several occasions, and
his plan formed the subject of some
of his addresses on his last and fatal
trip through the West. He did not
think 1t would split his party, and
boldly continued to advocate 1t. Not
withstanding this, it was assumed to
be almost certainty that President
Harding would be nominated in the
Republican national convention of
1924
Mr.. Hardng's home life was ideal
save that he had no children. He and
Mrs. Harding, who was Miss Florence
King of Marion, We're devoted to each
other and she was always his true
helpmate, both in Ohio and In WASH
ington. In the national capital Mrs.
Harding quickly made herself loved
by all with whom she came in contact.
| and during the Western trip She was
more eager even than the President
TO meet and mix with all kinds of
people.
His Western Trip.
President Harding's Alaska trip was
originally planned for the summer of
1922. He inherited the so-called
Alaska problem" Alaska seemed TO
be on the down grade, with decrease in
population and mining output threat
ened extinction of the fishing industry
ana numerous other unfayorable
symptoms. The situation apparently

American president to step on Cana
dian soil.
The President arrived at Seattle
July p and reviewed from the bridge
of the Henderson fleet of dozen or
so battleships under command Of Ad-
mlral ii. 7. Jones, each of which gave
him the national salute Of twenty one
guns. Even then he was suffering
from the ailment that resulted in his
death, and soon after that the rest of
his trip, which was to include return
to the East via the Panama canal, was
cancelled.
President Harding made public ad-
dress at Seattle setting forth his views
on the Alaskan situation. Some of his
points were these:
ALASKA for Alaskans."
There is no need of governments
managed, federally-pair-for hothouse
development there must be no
reckless sacrificing of resources"
Alaska Is destined for statehood in
n few years"
where there Is possibility of better
ment in federal machinery OF admin
istration, Improvement should and will
be effected"
Other conclusions presented by Pres
ident Harding were:
That generous appropriation should
be made for road building.
That the federal government should
be more liberal in encouraging the
technical, scientific and demonstration
work In agriculture.
That restrictions should be laid on
the fisheries and on the forests.
THAT the development of the coal
mines must await time and economic
| conditions.
That the government should retair
ownership and operation of the Alas
kan railroad
During the Presidents illness the
greatest concern was felt and ex
pressed in all foreign countries, ant
J thelr governments were constantl,
advised of his condition.
