American president to step on Cana
dian soil.
The President arrived at Seattle
July q and reviewed from the bridge
of the Henderson fleet of'a dozen or
so battleships under command Of Ad-
miral H. P. 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 a 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 government
managed, federally-pair-for dollhouse
development there must be no
reckless sacrificing of resources"
ALASKA is destined for statehood In
few years."
where there Is possibility OF better
ment in federal machinery of admin
istration, improvement should and viii
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 fthe
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 retain
ownership and operation of the Alas
kan railroad.
During the Presidents illness the
greatest concern was felt and ex-
pressed in all foreign countries, and
their governments were constantly
advised of his condition.

Of the United States from European
affairs, but believed this country
would have to do it's part in the res
toration Of Europe to peace and sta
bility. This feeling became more evil
dent early in 1928 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 insistent 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 it would split his party, and
boldly continued to advocate it. Not
withstanding this, it was assumed to
be almost a certainty that President
Harding would be nominated in the
Republican national convention Of
1924.
Mr.. Harding's home life was ideal
save that he had no children. He and
Mrs. Harding, who was Miss Florence
King of Marion. were 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
and numerous other unfavorable
symptoms. The situation apparently

Brief Sketch OF
Warren G. Harding's Life

A covenant of limitation to naval
armament between the United States,
Great Britain, France, Japan and Italy.
A treaty between the same powers
as to the use of submarines and nox-
ious gases in warfare.
A, treaty between the United States,
Great Britain, France and Japan re-
lating to their insular possessions and
their insular dominiens in the Pacific,
with declaration reserving American
rights in inundated territory.
A treaty between the nine powers in
the conference relating to principles
and policies to be followed in matters
concerning China.
A treaty between the nine powers
relating to Chinese customs tariff.
France refusing to consider the
limitation Of land armament at the
present time, that part of the confer
ence fell through. But what 1t did
achieve was considered great step
toward the attainment Of world peace.
The treaties were soon ratified by the
United States senate and the British
parliament, and the other nations fol-
lowed suit, though for long time 1t
was feared France would not accept
the pacts. However, President Hard
ing lived to see them ratified by the
French chamber and senate

STATE
CAPITAL


Officials of the State Forestry De-
partment are planning to have the Boy
Scouts of Baltimore stock the streams
in the State Forest Reserve of Mary
land with fish this year.
1t was pointed out the number Of
fish used to stock the streams would
be entirely upon the fish commission
ers, and it is not as yet known to what
extent the work would be conducted.
Fall repairs in the Reserve will not
be extensive owing to the depleted
condition of the treasury, the only
money forthcoming for rebuilding
trails, walling up springs, and max
ing new trails, being that from the sale
of Chestnut poles cut in the forest.
Much repair work will be done along
the River road between chichester and
Avalon, for which special funds have
been set aside.

called for the establishment of a def
mite Alaskan policy. Various plans
were discussed, including transfer Of
control to the Interior department
from the score or more of governing
bureaus. President Hardings plans
for 1922 came to naught, but this year
he determined to get first-hand infor-
nation. He was accompanied by Sec
rotary Work Of the Interior depart
ment, Secretary Wallace Of the Agri-
cultural department and Secretary
Hoover of the Department of Com
concerned In the Alaskan situation.
The President left Washington at
the erd Of June and journeyed leisure
ly to the Pacific Northwest by special
train, making speeches at st. Louis,
Denver, Helena, Spokane and other
cities. Incidentally he visited two Of
the national parks. First he went to
Zion In Utah, the newest Of our ma
tional parks, which is many-colored
gorge cut by the Rio Virgin. Next he
visited Yellowstone in Wyoming, Gre
ated in 1872, the first national park in
history and largest and most famous
of the nineteen parks of our system.
Here he motored, boated, fished, fed
the bears and had good time. His
plans also included visit to Yosemite
upon his return trip, but that was
abandoned.
Saw Much of Alaska.
The President celebrated the Fourth
Of July in the United States and then
started for Alaska on the U. s. trans
port Henderson. His Alaskan trip was
extensive. He went the length of the
new government railroad and visited
the capital, Juneau, and the principal
cities. He also was shown the best of
the majestic scenery.
On his return trip Mr.. Harding
stopped off at Vancouver, creating
precedent in that he was the first
