Ohio, September 24.—Ku- neral sarvices for Brig. Gen. Charies E. Sawyer, who was personal physi- ian to the late President Harding and who dicd suddenly here yestor- day from heart disease. wi'l be held from the Sawyer home here at 2:30 o'clock Friday afternoon. Secretary of State Charles k. Hughes. who is to address the Re- publican State campaign opening here Saturday, is expected to come on a day earlier for the funeral. Messages of sympathy have been received from President Coolidge and Secretary Hughes by Mrs. Sawyer. The message from President Coolidge read: “The news of your husband's death just reached us. I need not tell you the shock it caused. Mrs. Coolidge joins me in expressing the deepest Sympathy to you and your family in your loss. Gen. Sawyer's life was a ‘esson of faithfulness and service in all of the varied activities that claimed his efforts. 1 Dr. Sawyer died peacefully while | !<leeping. Returning to his home at | | White Oak ¥arm here. yesterdas {afternoon, he complained of illness, {and his son. Dr. Carl W. Sawyer. took i him into his office while he went for { medicine. He was dead when his son returned Mrs. Florence Kling Harding, widow of the late President, has been mak- {ing her home with the Sawyers since | her husband's death, and was present when death came. Under circum- stances similar to the death of Mr. Harding, Mrs. Harding watched by the bedside of her friend and phy- sician. Slightly more than a year had elapsed since Dr. Sawyer stood be- iside the late President's bedside in a San Francisco hotel and watched While he passed on. He had been with Mr. Harding since shortly after {his nomination for the presidency, land was one of his closest friends. | Born near Wyandot, Ohio, 64 years |ago, Dr. Sawyer obtained a practical education in the village school at Nevada. He began the study of medi- |cine at the age of 17, and was grad- uated from the Cleveland Homeo- pathic Hospital College of Cleveland in 1881. He began his practice at Larue in April of the same year. His widow and a son survive COOLIDGE SENDS MESSAGE. ) Immediately upon receiving word yesterday afternoon of the sudden death of Brig. Gen. Charles E v {yer President Coolidge sage of sympathy and condolence to Mrs. Sawver. The President held this prominent medical man, who was the family physician for so many years of the Harding family and who Wwas the White House physician up until last summer, in high esteem. During his services at the White House and in the War Department | and as head of the veterans' hospit- alization board an intimate as tion developed between the Pr {and Gen. Sawyer, and it was with re- gret that the former accepted Dr. Sawyer's resignation. Dr. Sawyer ex- plained to the President that he had worked very hard since coming to ngton and he wanted to retire arion, where he could be less| active. Also he was anxious to be close to Mrs. Harding, whom he ras close to Mrs. Harding, whom he has not been in good health for several years. Came Here With Harding. Coming to Washington with Presi- dent Harding at the beginning of his administration, Dr. Sawyer was com- missioned a brigadier general in the medical service of the Army and was given a succession of assignments serving both as the President’s phy- sician and with the War Department and Veterans' Bureau. He was for a time in charge of the general board for the hospital- ization of world war veterans, and he continued his labors after Presi- dent Harding died through the first part of the Coolidge administration. One achievement which brought| widespread praise to the Marion phy- sician was his successful treatment of Mrs. Harding during a critical illness prior to the trip made by President Harding to Alaska and return to San Francisco, where he died. Mrs. Harding, who had barely recovered when the Alaskan trip was started, required his continuous observation - | in Alaska and, to a more marked de- on her return to Washington with the body of her husband. Gen. Sawver also cared for Presi- dent Harding’s health during the| Alaskan trip, and personally attended | him when the first evidences.of his fatal illness were noticed. treating him practically without aid until he was taken to the hotel in San Fran- cisco, where the-services of other ex- pert medical men could be obtained. President Coolidge retalned Dr. Sawyer as his personal physician when he took over the office of the resident. Later, however, Dr. Saw- yer extended his work under the Veterans' Bureau and was given charge of the station at Perryville, Md., but more recently was placed on the inactive list of the Army at his own request in order that he might give undivided attention to the affairs of veteran treatment for the Govern- ment and the Harding Memorial. gree, YOUR OL.D SILVER G iderably more thap Tnondn: oidend piatinam Tar e i iver teagsty. an g Englixh and PLATING 15 YOUR roof sound. free from e ready for storms?

Those who purchased the land at the high figure were unable, when farm prod- uce prices dropped low, to pay inter- est on principal. They lost their land in many cases. The banks had loaned much money on the farms. There Wwas one bank for every 800 people in the State—an unusually large number. And finally the banks began to go under. About 160 went down. Bank cases are being tried in the «;;un‘s 0’)‘ the State today. Some of 6 institutions are beginning to pa Off part of their indebtedness, Destitation Remote. Notwithstanding this tale of woe, the people of South Dakota today are very far from being destitute. It is estimated that on their grain crops alone they will receive this year $60,- 000,000 more than they received for their crops last year. It is estimated that the corn crop will be 106,000,- 000 bushels, the wheat crop 35,000.000 bushels, the oats crop 89,000,000, bushels, barley 24,000,000 bushels, flax 4,000,000 bushels, potatoes 7.000,- 000 bushels. 1In addition, their dairy products have increased in value 30 per cent over what they were two vears ago. There are enough auto- maobiles in the State to give every in- habitant a ride at the same time. All of this increased prosperity— Wwith corn prices, wheat prices, ete far above what they were a year 0—is expected to aid the Republi- ans. In addition, Coolidge himself is well liked by a considerable num- ber of people here. They are not so partial to Gen. Charles Dawes, how- ever. al Claim Progressivism. Take the other side of the shield. The people of South Dakota say they are progressive and they believe it— though they, as well as others, find it difficult to define just what a pro- gressive is.

The supporters aof Roosevelt didn’t even bother to name independ- ent electors—they just took over the Republican list, knowing that they would cast the vote of the State for Roosevelt. Further back still, in 1896, a fusion of the Populists and the Democrats carried the State by a small margin for William Jennings Bryan. Four years ago the State gave a very large vote for Harding. It must be remembered that in South Dakota, as in other neighboring States, there is a big German-Amer- ican population, as well as Scandi- navian. These people voted as a body almost for Harding four years ago. And this year many of them are going to vote for La Follette. Lay Deflation to G. 0. P. The farmers blame their sufferings in recent years on the deflation brought about by the Federal Reserv. banks. They lay the deflation to the door first of the Democratic party, since the deflation began in 1920, then more largely to the Republicans, who continued the deflation, and now particularly to the Republican State government, which they Insist could have saved some of the banks which went to the wall in the last part of 1923 and in the first part of the pres- ent year.

The race for United States Senator is a different story, they tell it here. Gov. McMaster, ihe Republican nom- inee, is contesting with seven other candidates, one of whom is the Demo- cratic nominee, U. G. Cherry, and the others representing various inde- pendent factions, including _the Farmer-Labor .party and the Non- Partisan League. The Democrats fig- ure that with their opponents so widely divided. they can win with Cherry. Gov. McMaster’s administra- tion has been criticized, too. On the other hand, the governor has tackled the high price of gasoline, and using State funds has bought and sold great quantities of gasoline at prices which started 6 cents below the price at the private filling stations. This won him the friendship of many users of gasoline. He is threatening to tackle the coal prices also.
