Forrest, lawyer and prominent democrat in Harding memorial here, today said that-such criticism was in a large measure re- sponsible for the death of Warren G.

 A telegram is to be sent President Coolidge. bringing the pledge of the heart of the Kansas oil and gas belt and an appeal goes out for a ration wide response to the plea of the lola meeting. Closing his address, Mir. Forrest said:
 criticism killed Lincoln. criticism killed Garfield. criticism killed Mo- Kilney, and criticism contributed a major degree to the death of Warren Harding There are times, my friends, when we are too nasty in our Judgments, too early in our conclu- sions. There are times when the shaft of public comm ent goes straight to the heart of the national executive I do not call for complete unity of po- litlcal thought, but I do now and here call upon this people to join ma in recording a solemn pledge that henceforth and forever we as Amer ican people refrain from such criti- cism of our national executive as shall tend to weaken or destroy him, and that instead we shall endeavor at all times to give to the public con Instead of bitter invective that shall rear down.

WAGE BANNERS M MORE PROSPEROUS ERA THAN IN 1920
National Industrial Conference Board Concludes Research
 On Living Costs

NEW YORK. August 1O.-(By As sociated ress.)-American wage earners are now enjoying a period of prosnerity. greater even than the so- sailed peak period" of 1920, accord Ing to a statement issued by the Ma tional Industrial Conference Board which recently concluded researcA Into wages and the cost of living.
 Asserting that 1920 need no longer be considered the most recent nigh water mark for workers in industry, the investigators point out that many plants have announced increases of 10 to 15 per cent.
 Tt is true," the report continues, that wages were at their highest levels in 1920. but the cost of living was also high at that time.'
 Later, the investigators find, the cost of living declined more rapidly than earnings, and in 1922 wages again began to rise, first as a re suit of longer hours worked and later because of wage increases
 The report, based on a study of con ditions in plants employing bOo,0oo workers, estimates the comparative excess of rising wages over rising living costs as between l7 and IS per cent greater in May. 1923, than In June, 1920, using July, 1914-the last pre-war month-as a working basis.
 "The wage earner was better off Tn May. 1923, than during the peak months of 1920" it observes in con clusion. Wages in May were fast approaching the peak levels while the cost of living was considerably below the peak and in consequence real earnings rose well above the former peak figures"

SOVIET ANXIOUS TO
 RESTORE PETROGRAD
Russian Ports, However, Suffering
 In Conseouence Of It

RENAL. August -(Correspond- ence. )-Soviet Russia's effort to re- store Petrograd to it's former inn portance as the gateway to North Russia is having a detrimental effect on the ports of Helsingfors, ReVal and Riga. The Moscow government is diverting all possible business to Petrograd, and is making imporve' ments In the harbor to enable large ships to enter with safety as they did in the days before Bolshevism worked ruin to the port which has lain idle for so long.
 The Moscow government holds no kindly feeling for Latvia and Esth- onia, and naturally does not care to have the ports of Reval and Riga continue to be gateways to Russia, as they were in the days of the czar. Ice troubles are far less in ReVal and Riga than in Petrograd. Bolshe Nist efforts to keep Petrograd open through extremely cold weather have not been very successful, and the Russian government was very unhappy over the necessity for ship ping a large amount of American relief administration suppl es through the ports of the new Baltic states rather than through Petro- grad. showed the city now has over half a million inhabitants. This was some lining of surprise, as 1t was at one time believed to have fallen to 300,- GOO. But the housing conditions are so good there, s compared with con ditions in Moscow, that the popula- tion of Petrograd which remained in Russia is apparently drifting back fn the old capital. Zinovieff, the head of the Petrosrad soviet and chairman Of the Third international, is making a vigorous effort to bring petrograd back. odessa and the other RIack sea ports are being neglected in favor OF Petrograd.

AUBURN ALUMNI BITTERLY OPPOSE POST SEASON TILT
Jefferson County Members Pass Resolutions
 Friday Night

Declaring that a resumption of athletic relations between the Ala bama Polytechnic Institute and the University of Alabama in any form would "endanger prejudice. produce enmity, and revive old animosities, ' members of the Jefferson County Alumni association of Auburn went on record at their meeting Friday night against the suggested post sea son football game between the two Institutions next fall.
 Henry T. DeBardeleben was elected president of the association; Dan Martin, Henry Perry, John E. Davis and C. A. Wilkmore, vice presidents; and II. F. Cox, secretary and treas urer.
 Following are the resolutions adopted regarding the football game: [ Whereas, the Alabama legislature has adopted d resolution suEgesting q a post season game of football be- tween Ala bama and Auburn: and
 Whereas, the Alumni of Auburn are profoundly interested in Auburn S welfare and future; and,
 Whereas the Auburn men are grate- ful to the legislators for every con slderation given by them tending to promote Auburn's interest and ad- vance her progress;
 Therefore Be 1t Resolved By the Auburn men, in meeting assembled at Birmingham, Alabama, as follows;
 That We recognize in their resolu- ton suggesting post season game a friendly disposition even to part from former paths in order to assist financially or otherwise our two state colleges, and for this manifesto ton We are profoundly grateful. and tSust that such attitude will be main talned continually in behalf of high CT education.
 That we pONat ba relations with the University of Ala Ddma, and desire to strengthen those relations. We are mindful of the fact that resumption of athletic rela tlons in any form between these two institutions would engender preju- dice, produce enmity, revive animos- tues and thereby defeat the object sought in the resolutions adopted by the legislature and do both institu- tons lncalculable harm and irrepara- ble injury. Being convinced that such would be the outcome of the resumption of athletic relations be- tween these two colleges we, the Auburn Alumni and Auburn men in meeting assembled at Birmingham Alabama, have adopted a resolution with only one dissenting vote oppos- ing the resumption of athletics in any form between these two institu- tions. In this position, which we nave reached after due deliberation and careful discussion of the en- tire history of Auburns $ athletic re- latlons with Alabama and similar relations with collges In other states We feel absolutely confident that the legislature of Ala bama and all those Tn authority who are interested in the welfare of Alabama and Auburn will not only acquiesce in our posi- ton, but will give us their unquali- lied endorsement and support in this action.

LET THEM PAY TAX

 MUSIC, THEY SAY
Gay New York With Its Night Life Finds Little Favor
 In Legislators Eyes

ATLANTA, Ga, August 10.-(By Associated Press.)-New York, with it's gay night life and metropolitan opera company, and so described luxury rolling, silk rattlng, dia- mond wearing. monkey betting" per sons of the southland, today became storm centers in the Georgia house of representatives and when the heated debate had come to an end what was termed heavy tax sched- ule had been voted upon all opera or ganizations appearing in the state.
 The house had under consideration the general tax act and amendments were offered so as to include the opera companies. The amendment, passed by vote of 75 to ST. provides that all opera companies appearing in the state shall be taxed S2,500 for each contract In cities of more than 100000 and $1,000 in cities of less population.
 Bring New York Company,
 During the past several years, a group of Atlanta citizens has under written contracts to bring the Metro politan Opera company to Atlanta. A tax on opera companies was levied two years ago after Legislative fight, but in presenting the tax act this year. the house ways and means committee excluded the assessment on the ground, the chairman declared that the movement4 in Atlanta had been supported financially by public spirited citizens for the advancement of music and education in the south.
 Representatives Stovan. Knight. Pope, Wood and others immediately objected and the clerks desk was flooded with amendments to provide the assessments.
 The people who attend grand opera are able to pay the tax" MT Pope stated. T plead with you to tax these luxury rolling, silk-rattl- ing, diamond wearing, poodle-petting persons who attend grand opera. Why should we let them escape when We tax the poor, down-trodden farmer?"
 Miss Bessie Kempton, who is one of the two women members of the house, told the legislators that the guarantors of the opera company 8 performances in Atlanta had been compelled to meet deficits each year and the tax was met by them.
 The objecting representatives were invited by Representative Smith to attend grand opera next year, assur- ing the members they would enjoy each performance.
 If you folks want to hear Italians sing in some language you cannot understand, then you should be willing to pay the tax" one of the amendment supporters shouted.
 There is as much difference be- tween bringing a grand opera com pany to Atlanta and bringing chau- taudua to a small town as there is between a porterhouse steak sur rounded by mushrooms, and two small mutton chops" Representative Wood replied in answer to state ment that if opera companies were taxed chautauqua organizations also should be assessed.
 You pay the Italians too much,' a member shouted.
 When the first and highest tax amendment was offered for passage it carried and the other proposed changes were declared out of order.
