WORKERS ON STATE ROADS
WILL OFFER TRIBUTE

TRENTON, Aug. 10:-In accord
'ance with a resolution passed a few
DAYS ago by the State Highway
Commission, all labor gangs and
other workmen employed on state
roads will pause for ten minutes at
3 o'clock today. out of respect for
the late President Harding, whose
funeral will take place this after
noon.
General Hugh L. Scott, who was
delegated by the highway board TO
prepare a memorial to be read by
contractors to their workmen during
the ten minute pause, has written
the following short discourse which
will be used by contractors during
the burial of the President:
President Harding was one of the
most gracious, genial persons to oc-
cupy the Presidential chair, yet with
all his kindness of heart was a man
of great force of character. He
out his objects, standing firmly
on his own feet. He came to his high
Office at a time when there were
more difficult matters pressing for
solution than any time in u history.
His accomplishment at the Wash
lington Disarmament Conference sur
| prised the world and was of the
highest importance in the mainten-
ance of its peace. He was bringing
the country slowly but surely back
to normally when striker down.
THE New Jersey State Highway
Commission, in all its branches, joins
with our fellow citizens throughout
the nation in mourning his loss"
