BOY SCOUTS HONOR HARDING

The iiags Of 1850 scout troops
were lowered to haIf-staff In silent
tribute to the memory of the nations
late head and honorary president od
the Boy Scouts Of America, upon til
announcement Of the death Of Warren

white and blue, Mr.. Harding's gift to
the troops increasing their member
ship in the recent scout roundup
treasured mementoes Of his warm
sympathy and active support Of the
boy scout movement.
From West to East boy scouts stood
at attention in respect to the memory
of the dead President, as the train
bearing the body of this great-hearted
leader and devoted supporter Of the
scout movement passed on its sad and
impressive transcontinental journey to
the nations capital.
At practically every station in city,
town and countryside on the route of
the funeral train. regardless Of hour
scout contingent, usually the length of
the train, was drawn up. Where stops
were made, an offering of wild flow

was placed aboard.
In San Francisco twenty scouts of
eagle rank escorted the funeral
cortege. In Washington the tribute of
esteem was rededicated by Colin II.
Livingstone, president of the Boy
Scouts of America, James e West,
chief scout executive, other scSzt off,
Gals, and a delegation of scouts to
whom a special place in the funeral
services was assigned.
Boy scouts have cherished memories
in the repeated manifestations of both
the President and Mrs. Harding as to
their keen appreciation of the funda-
mental values of scouting in character
building and citizenship training. The
annals of the Boy Scouts Of America
contain no finer tribute than Yrs
Hardings request that the SCOUTS be
Included in all arrangements on the
recent trip for guarding the presi-
Dental party. because as she ex-
pressed 1t, she always felt better when
the scouts were present.
The following telegram was dis
patched to Mrs. Harding from the ma
tional office upon receipt of informa-
ton of the Presidents death:
'sBoy Scouts of America, $4,000 |

friend of our organization. Believing

GUERILLA WARFARE
 INBULGAR REVOLT
Facts Uncertain, But That There
 Is War Is Sure

Lonton. Sept, as,-The sensational reports printed here yesterday of the complete success of the revolutionary movement in Bulgaria receives no eon' hrmation in later dispatches from any source. The Morning Post which ear- ried the story on Tuesday does not attempt 10 substa ntiate II and the brief telegram rom the same cores. pendent that appears this morning contains no mention Of the Belgrade rumor.
 The other newspapers have detailed dispatches from their special eorres' pondents in Sofia under date of Tues fay. Even if these are considerably censored they nevertheless show that communication with the Bulgarian capital is still open and the govern ment Is funetionlng. IL Is clear enough that the situation Is serious for the administration of Premier Zankof.
 While the allegation that s0.000 have been killed in disorders is dis missed as absurd 1t is evident that the fighting Is fairly constant and that the casualties nave been considerable.
 Guerilla Warfare.
 The communists and peasants, act- ing in conjunction, take the villages snd as soon as the troops arrive. burn them and then disperse. k~aplng up q running fire as they flee" says the Sofia correspondent of the Daily Ex- press. He compares the task Of the government to an attempt to grasp a plateful of quick silver.
 Several other correspondents em- phasize that the Bulgarian army is not large enough to cover the entire area affected and that 1t can only SC nd flying columns to places where outbursts occur.
 Information received by the diplo- r.atic correspondent of the Daily Telegraph induces him to take q graver view of the situation than is implied in the Sofia dispatches which are strictly censored. He writes:
 The Bulgarian government is en- deavoring to maintain the fiction that the rising is mainly communist, but the latest information shows it to be rredominantly agrarian. The frequent defection of soldiers to the insurg- ents is confirmed The Bulgarian government is thoroughly alarmed of approaching dangers as the insurgent on Sofia is undoubtedly
