At future conterences between Pres- {dent Harding and the newspaper cor- respondents the former will answer ionly those questions which are sub- mitted In writing. “He announced this bi-weekly conference Tuesday with the walters. The President explained, however, that when he entered upon any topic during one of these conferences he would then submit to the “rapid fire” of questions if the latter have a di- rect bearing upon the topic itself. Surprise to Correspondents. In making this “written-question” rule the President caused considerable of a surprise among the 150 or more correspondents who now attend regu- |larly these conferences. The execu- tive stated that #t was not necessary to make any specific explanation, but circumstances recently had forced him to “hit upon” some means of regu- | lating his answers. It was intimated also that the executive is anxious to prevent significance being attached to unanswered verbal questions. President Harding and a number of prominent officials of the federal government and some representatives of European countries will attend the ceremonies to be held tomorrow DEPENDABLE The limit of satisfaction 233 ana the limit of value In the | Fuel we furnish. { R.J. & we: GRACE 4th and F Sts.
