Despite high wages, which In some

building trades in America fiourished
enormously during the year. Railway
earnings also seemed more satisfac-

INDUSTRIAL AND LABOR

Only one really big strike marred
the record of the year in the United
States. and that did not last long. The
miners in the anthracite fields and
their employers tried in vain TO fix a
new wage scale and working condi-
tiOns, and on August 81 they broke off
negotiations. With the approval of
President Coolidge, Governor Pinchot
of Pennsylvania undertook to handle
the problem, and proposed a compro-
mise on August 20. The strike began
officially two days later. but the nego-
tiations were continued. Pinch0t's
plan was accepted September s and
the miners resumed work on Septem-
ber 20.

DOMESTIC AFFAIRS

Overshadowing all other events in
the United States was the death of
President Warren G. Harding. He
had long planned trip through the
Middle and Far West and to Alaska
in order to talk with the people and
and far from well, he started on June
20, accompanied by Mrs Harding and
several members of his cabinet. After
delivering several important addresses,
notably one advocating American men,
bership in the World court, he sailed
to Alaska. Returning thence to San
Francisco, he fell Ill there on July %.
Four days later, on August ., he
passed away. The taking of his body
back to Washington. the services
there. the trip to Marion, Ohio, and
the interment there of the little towns
distinguished citizen on August 10
gave the people Of the country ample
opportunity to show in what high
esteem and affection they held Mr..
Harding. Literally the entire nation
mourned sincerely, and all the other
nations gave expression to their grief.
Vice President Calvin Coolidge took
the oath of Office as President at his
fathers home in Plymouth, VT, and
assumed his new duties at once, re-
tanning the entire Harding cabinet and
announcing that he would carry out
the Harding policies where possible.
1t had been taken for granted that
the Republican party would nominate
Mr.. Harding In 1924, and Mr.. Cool

nominee. However. before the year
