Wages of $10 and $12 and $15 a day look good to these foreign workers. Most of the desertions are said to have taken place among the crews’ of the British ships. Labor conditions in England are bad and there is not much work to be hand. Easy for Aliens to Hide The men landing here are aliens as such are allowed only sixty days under the Inw.

Along West street and in the places where the sailing men congregate on the west side of the city, agents for builders are active. agents get high as $5 a head for every worker they can enlist. Others work through one of the seamen or dock workers, who tell the incoming sailors of the wages they can get and where to go to meet the employment agent. Rum Ruling Small Factor A percentage of the desertion ts dus| to the liquor ruling. One man, who has been connected with shipping cir- cles here and abroad for more than |thirty years, said, however, that the British sailors are little affected by this ruling. “As a matter of fact the British sailor never drinking aboard ship,” this man said. “He had too little pay to warrant him ale or beer during the trip. most of ‘his drinking at either end of the run, and he can still do that. Then there ts the unwritten law among the officers never to drink until they make port, so that I should) say the liquor matter has been respon- sible for only a few desertions. The wages paid in New York for /aborers are the real reasons for the defection of the sailing men.” A number of men who left the Hom eric growled about the fact that they couldn't get their beer or liquor. It was significant, however, that many of them went away in taxicabs English Swimming Mark Is Lowered The 100 yard swimming record of 1 minute 1 38-5 seconds of Oxford.

ON -BORAD HARDING FUNERAL TRAIN, CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, Aug. 6.—{By The Associated Press}—Mem- bers of the party, which little more! than a month ago went westward with President Harding and now are returning with his body, recalled today as the funeral train crossed the state ot Iowa that the late chief executive at the time of his death had virtually decided to make another trip this fall, go'ng as far west as Iowa and Minne- sota, Shortly before he left Washington on his ill-fated journey Mr. Harding was asked one day by newspaper men regarding reports that he was planning a speaking trip during the fall, “Let us wait until the trip immed- fately before us is completed oefore we decide on another,” he replied. It ’s known that during his voyage to and from Alaska he gave thought to a fall trip and that when the end suddenly came last Thursday evening in San Francisco, he had virtually de- cided to make such a tour. He planned to make it, not for political purposes but carry further his cam- paign designed to bring about a help- ful understanding between the «ov- ernment and the peop’e. It was to be in line with the declaration he| made two weeks or so ago that he would like to be known as “the apos- |tle of understanding.” The partially projected trip prob- ably would haye included visits to| Des Moines, Chicago, possibly St. Paul Minneapolia, Detroit and Pittsburgh.; It also was considered probable that | Mr. Harding would visit Marion, Ohio |where he will be buried Friday and! | also the farm at Riooming Grove,) | Ohio, that he purchased last spring. | Tonkin Back Home | RIVERTON—Dr. A.

George had trouble making his last change and got away several lengths behind Lyle Christian, but passed him on the straightaway on the back stretch and won handily. The Ken- neth Miller string, ridden by Earnest Marquardt, was third. Sim Caskey and Mike Hastings headed the teams that won the potato race, which furnished lots of fun for the crowd. Brono Riding.

Se enn TRIBUTE PAID AT GHEYENNE (Continued from Page One.) a surging rush from the crowd that disregarded the guard lines. The bier draped with flags and covered with flowers, was visible through the open rear door of the car. Officers of the army and marine corps were on the rear platform, the army and marine guard of honor within the car, stand- ing rigidly at attention, could be seen dimly by those without. During the entire period of the train's stop here a stream of persons flowed steadily past the rear platform, intent on get- ting a glimpse of the bier. Immediately after the train came to a stop, a bouquet of eight dozen Am- erican Beauty roses, Cheyenne's flor- al tribute to the dead Executive, was presented at the funeral car by Mayor Ed. P. Taylor. The Boy Scouts’ flor- al tributes also were delivered. Mrs. William G, Walker of Chey- nne, a second cousin of Mr, Hard-| ng carried a bouquet to Mrs, Hara-| Ing. She was the only person here} admitted to the compartment of the| President's widow. Mrs. Harding xe-| mained in seclusion. During the stop in Cheyenne Secre- tary Hoover, Secretary Wallace, Gen- eral Pershing, Brigadier General Saw- yer and other members of the presi- dential party alighted, some walking briskly up and down to obtain exer- cise, others chatting with acquaint- ances and the army and civilian offi- cers directing Cheyenne’s expression of its sorrow. General Sawyer stat- ed that Mrs. Harding was bearing the sad journey with remarkable fortitude. ‘The sun was shining brightly when the funeral train arrived, but soon the very elements turned gloomy, rain fell and thunder pealed, the artillery of the heavens drowning the comparn- l tively insignificant sound of the last guns of the presidential salute. As} the special pulled out the bare headed} spectators were buffeted and made] disheveled by a gusty wind that ming- led dust with rain drops. As the special got into motion for departure, the ith Field Artillery band played, first “‘The Star Spangled Banner,” then Chopin’s Funeral Dirge and finally, “Nearer My God to Thee.” The soldiery held themselves at salute until the funeral car was beyond the station. ‘Cheyenne's floral tribute bore a card with this inscription: ‘With sincere sympathies of the City of Cheyenne.” United States Senator Francis BE. Warren of Wyoming, accompanied by Mrs. Warren, boarded the cial here Mrs. Warren alighted in a few min- utes, but Senator Warren remained aboard, becoming a member of the funeral party for the remainder of the journey to Washington. Mrs, Walker was escorted 1o Mrs. Harding's compartment by E. E. Reinsfert of Santa Ana, Callif., hus- band of Mrs. Harding's sister. Mrs. Reinsfert and their three daughters were with Mr. Reinsfert as members of the funeral party. The locomotives that drew the spec- fal into and out of Cheyenne were hung with black streamers, as also was the Union Pacific station. There Were no symbols or mourning, how- ever on the twelve cars of the special. One Pullman near the head of the train, was filled with floral offerings from San Francisco and towns between that city and Cheyenne and individ. uals. One of the Pullman cars bore the name of another chief executive 4 died in office, ‘President Lin- and another that of a chief ex- ecutive, “President Grant.” Patrick Sullivan of Casper, republi- can Nationa! committeeman for Wyo- ming was among the notables that met the train here. Governor Ross was not present. He is enroute to Yellowstone park. ‘The delegation representing Den- ver chapter No. 4, Disabled American Veterans of the World War, consisted of C. O. Marquess, commander of the chapter; W. T. Henning, treasurer; J. G. Bushnell and John Richers ‘They were accompanied by two rep- resentatives of the Ladies Auxiliary to the chapter, Mrs. W. T. Henning and Mrs. J, G. Bushnell. No outward incident oocurred dur- ing the passage of the special across Wyoming, other than a freight do- railment near Medicine Bow that made it necessary for the special to feo around the deraifed locpmottve and caused a slight delay.
