HARDING’S EX-EMPLOYE VOLUNTEERS SERVICES

Marion, O. —A printer who unionized the mechanical departments of the Marion Daily Star, Senator Harding’s paper, several years ago, has come forward to volunteer his support to the Republican nominee because of Senator Harding’s fairness to labor. The printer is Wilmer (Shorty) Harbe. A few days ago he wrote Senator Harding, recalling the occasion on which the Star printers joined the union. “I asked you how you felt about the printers organizing,” the letter states, “and you told me that if they wanted to organize they should do so and if they did not they didn’t heed to. lam the crippled printer that did the trick. I am now in business for myself and shall make it a point to do you all the good I can.”
