DAWES 1§ READY FOR MAINE SPEECH Candidate, Notitied Last Night, In Westbrook Tomorrow By The Aswciated Press Evanston, I, Aug. 20, = Having formally accepted the republican nomination for vice-president, Charles G. Dawes entered actively inte the party’'s national campaign today with his departure for Maine to deliver an address Baturday at Augusia The Augusta address is the only one listed for Mr, Dawes on the trip un. dertaken today and he will return to his home here early next week and then proeeed to Lincoln, Neb, for another speech on August 20, His first stumping tour will begin soon afterpard, Formal notification of his selection as President 'Coollidge's running mate was given. Mr. .Dawes last night at ceremonies held on the lawn of his home here with an audience declared by republican leaders to have been one of the largest that ever gathered At any political meeting in the vieins ity of Chicago, Big Audience The big andience, extending in an almost solid mass from the Dawes' home to Lake Michigan, three hun- dred yards away, was composed of the leaders of the republican party, of delegations from a number of mid- dlewestern cities and towns, and of the neighbors of the nomince. Speaking to this audience, and in- directly to the country's voters, Mr, Dawes assalled the LaFollette inde- pendent candidacy as “a mobilization of extreme radicalism,” declared the real contest of the campalgn to be between the ‘“progressive conserva- tism" of the republican party, and the “untried and dangerous radical- 1em of the LaoFllette movement” and defended the course of the Harding and Coolidge administration In for- elgn affairs, Although giving the credit to Presis dent Conlidge and Secretary Hughes, Mr., Dawes predicted that acceptance of the reparations plan worked out under his direction meant peace and | prosperity for Furope, and saving of the ‘United States from inevitable agricultural and. industrial depression. ,The nominee after defining the position of the republican party one of progreseive conservatism and | that of the Lalkollette independent candidacy as one of extreme radical- | ism, declared the democratic party stood in between and “instead of re- cruiting itself from the two lines, will suffer only the fate which | befalls those who try to straddle ll” a real fight.” Response to Jefferis | Mr. Dawes spoke in response to the formal notification address delivered by A. W, Jefteris, former representa- tive from Nebraska, and chairman of the official notification committee, who likewise attacked “the man from ‘Wiscopsin” whom he said had thrown off “all pretense of republicanism and has run away from the home where for 40 years he has been fed and sheltered, and has finally eloped witls the socialist party.” | The party leaving here today with | Mr. Dawes for Maine was small, con- | sisting only of the nominee, Francis J. Kilkenny, his chief assistant; Ma- | jor George A. Paddock of Evanston; a stenographer, and Howard M. Se- | | | | wall of Bath, Maine, who will act as | host to Mr. Dawes during his stay in the Maine capital. In New Haven Mr. Dawes will arrive in New York | at 9:40 a. m. tomorrow and leave 20 | minutes later for New Haven, Conn. | Arriving there he will go by automo- | bile to Westbrook, Conn,, to spend a | portion ot=Thursday and Friday with Walter H. Wlison, one of the directors of his Chicago bank. Leaving Westhrook late Triday the nominee will go to Augusta by way of Brunswick and spend Saturday and Sunday in the Malne capital. Return. | ing, he will spend Monday forénoon | in Boston arriving back in Ev anston | Tuesday morning. MARS OBSERVATION BETTER IN OCTOBER Véetation Will Be More Deve- oped--Listen for Wireless Signals | Prescott, Ariz, Aug. 20.—August 22, | the date when the planct Mars is nearest the earth, is not the time as- tronomers at Lowell observato Flagstaff, Ariz, expect to obtain best results from their continuous study. October, according to [arl Slipher, photographic expert of the observa- tory, will reveal to scientists results that will be astonishing. It is the progress of the seasons on AMars and not its comparatively close approach to the earth this week that | will supply the students with the data | for which they have beén striving for | many years, he said. Blots of dark, colored surface ma- terial, believed to be vegetation, are now developing at predicted points on the planet, it was said, the sifading of thes2 areas is about haif as Jdark as it has been observed at the most favor- able times in the past. With the ad- vance of the seasons on Mars, these dark belts are expected by Dr. Slipher to assume a sharpness of form and a definiteness of markings that will sur- pass the best results ever obtained, % By The Associated Prees.

Stone, head of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, denyiif that he had resigned as treas- urer of campaign funds sclicited from labor organizations and their mem- bers. Reports that Mr. Stone was prepar- ing to relinquish the task, assigned him in the independent organization, were accompanied by intimations of differences, and some talk of a split, but the latter was denied on all sides. Mr. Stone, meanwhile, was urged to continue as treasurer with assurance chat a staff of assistants .to take charge of the mass of details will be placed at his disposal and an effort made to simplify the collection and disbursement of fun together with the accounting that will be entailed, and his brief statement was taken as ssurance of his acceptance. nator Wheeler, Mr. LaFollette's running mate, traveling by automo- bile from tha Massachusetts south shore where he spent three weeks with his family, sent word yesterday that he expected to be back in the capital today ready for the conference with his leader and their advisers to round out their campalgn plans. The financial as well as speech making and other activities will be discussed at these conferences, which are to begin tomorrow. LEGACIES GIVEN 10 HOTEL FOLK $40,000 Left by Clerk Distributed Among Fellow Workers — New York, Aug. 20.—In the state- ly precinets af the Waldorf-Astoria, often trod by kinge, princes and great ones of the earth, a fairy tale has as- sumed realty. The cha yet worthy folk, clerks, bell-hops, scullery maids, waiters and checkers. One by one they passed before John Killackery, the cashier, and received checks of from $300 to $500, legacies left them by a fellow worker, Ar- thur I"owler, clerk and messenger of the Waldorf drug store. As each re- .(ived his coveted paper until $40,- 000 had been distributed, memories of the quict unassuming Fowler came to them, memories of one whom ey said “played his game like a man.” last October, while Fowler lay dying in a hospital, he sent for Kill- akery, The latter was surprised when Fowler informed him that he had ac- cumulated a fortune of $40,000, saved out of his wages and out of the many tips he had received while delivering drngs to the hotel’s guests. “] have no kin, so 1 want to leave it all to my friends, the men and women with whom [I've worked,” Fowler had said - 8o, at that bedside a list was made | up containing old friends and em- | ployes of the hotel and of the drug store. Not only were the clerks and the “boys out front” remembered, but also many a humbler workers, men and women unseen by the guests,those who labor in the nooks and corners behind the gilded scenes. Fowler remembered, too, the fam- fly of Dr. Louis“Trezise, owner of the | ¢ tore in which he was employed. To each of them he left $1,000 cash. | | OIS | -, W. BARDEEN DIES. | gyracuse, N. Y.
