News of the World By Associated Press ESTABLISHED 1870 HARDING’S WESTERN TRIP PLANNED SO JUST HOW PEOPLE STAND Executive Not Only Wants To Air His Views, But Also to Ascertain West- erners’ Ideas on Nat- ional Issues Tentative Arrangements ,Call for 15 or 20 Address- es in Representative Cities — Will Announce Policies. Augusta, Ga., April j.—President Harding is understood to contemplate his proposed summer trip to the Pa- cific coast not only as a means of pre- senting to the western half of the country his policies and plans but also as a means of ascertaining clearly the wetstern view point on national prob- lems. . Such an understanding of the exec- utive's attitude toward the projected trip has been obtained by several of those who have discused the matter of the tour with him during his vaca- | tion. | To Yeel the Pulse i As briefly put by these conferees; today, the president desires to go into the section west of the Mississippl to' “feel its pulse.” As tentatively mapped out the, swing of the president through the; west provides for 15 or 20 addresses: in representative cities. In these ad- | dresses Mr. Harding, it is said, plans to outline the more important policies ' of his administration and announce | his plans for the remainder of his present term of office. Informal Conferences The addresses will not be the only, feature of the trip as now viewed by Mr. Harding as through informal con- fcrences with leading citizens he hopes to lcarn intimately and clearly the thoughts and ideas of the people. These conferences he is sald to feel will give him a background and basis for yse in formulating new policles and in carrying out old ones. Some thought is being given Ly the president, it is further said to a sug- gestion that after his trip a series of conferences be held at the White House to weigh the information re- ceived during the trip and to decide upon its application. Discuss Gompers' Warning The statement issued by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Tederation of Labor in Washington last night, warning the republican ‘ party against sponsoring anti-organiz- ed labor issues in 1924 campaign was a subject of comment today among members of the president’s entourage. The general opinion remained that such a warning was unnecessary be- cause regardless of the pressure ex- crted to bring about a declaration by the republican party in favor of the open shop leaders were firmly op- posed to any such step. Mr. Harding today continued to follow his program of recreation and rest, playing a round of golf in the forenoon. WILL TAKE STORE IF BEER | AND WINE “COME BACK"! ‘month.

Mr. Barrett said: | “With the assistance of A. 8. Lynch, cxpert engineer of New Haven, I have conducted my investigation to the point where any further investigation jon my part would conflict with the work of the coroner and the state's attorney; for this reason I shall pro- ceed no further at the present time. “I have, however, reached a point where I can say conclusively that the cause of this disaster is in no way related to the permit for the erection of this plant nor to the plans and spe- cifications filed in the office of the su- pervisor of buildings. I am satisfied that the cause of this disaster was beyond control of this department. “I shall prepare and submit at once to his honor, the mayor, a complete |statement of the result of my investi- gatibn. It will then be for the mayor to decide how much, if any, of this be given out for publication.

SIR A. CONAN DOYLE BELIEVES EVIL SPIRIT MAY HAVE KILLED CARNARVON Explains That Egyptians Were Far More Learned in Spiritualism Than People of Today—Recites Possible Effect of Curse. New York, April 6.—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle who arrived in this coun- try yesterday to lecture on spiritual- ism today expressed belief that “an evil elemental” brought into being by Egyptian occultism or the spirit of Tutankhamen might have caused the death of Lord Carnarvon, who opened the tomb of the Egyptian Pharaoh. Sir Arthur was asked if he agreed with Miss Marie Corelli the English novelist who warned the explorer that it was dangerous to enter the Luxor tomb because the spirit of Egyptlan Kking might be angered. “It might be a dangerous thing to dig Into these old graves” admitted 8ir Arthur, who claims to have con- versed with the souls of those de- parted. 'One does not know what elemen- tals existed in those days and how long these elementals existed or what might be their force. “The Egyptians knew a great deal more about these things than we do. If they could put these elementals on guard over their dead bodies they certainly would have done so."” Continuing 8ir Arthur said | “An elemental is a built-up, ar| tificial thing, an imbued force which may be brought into being by a spirit | mind.
