Lodge had come to the President’s room at the Capitol to tell Wilson tie Senate had no- further business nnd to ask If he had any further communication to Congress. Wilson's tone was unmistakably bitter. It was the first time he had met the man who led the Senate fight against him. Mr. Wilson took a final sly fling at the Senate when be explained to Senator Knox, chairman of the Inaugural Committee, that he did not believe his physical condition was such that he should attempt to participate further In the ceremonies. “The Senate has thrown me down, but I wouldn't want to fall down,” he said with a smile, referring to Uls defeat on the treaty Issue.

It authorizes county sheriffs to employ deputies In times of crisis at the public expense. On the ground that such an organization could be used to Intimidate labor and possibly to influence voters at the polls, it Incurred a good deal of opposition In both Houses, but administration support brought about Its passage. Representative R. U.

HARDING TAKES NEW POST WITH WILSON ABSENT Throng of 50,000 Witnesses Simple Ceremony on East Capitol Steps. FORMER SPLENDOR GONE INAUGURAL STAND, WASHINGTON, March 4. —At 1:17 p. m. today, Warren G. Harding of Ohio repeated In a clear firm voice the oath of office as President of the United States. Before the cheering had died away, Harding stepped forward and extended his arms in a gesture embracing the whole crowd of 50,000 who stood before him and started his inaugural address. Ten feet away, with her eye# on his face, stood Mrs. Harding. Grouped about were the dignitaries of his Government, representatives of foreign nations and a vast concourse of plain, every-day Americans.

President Wilson was not present, having gone to bis new home after signing legislative bills in the President’s room at the capitol a few minutes before. Hardings voice, as he delivered his Inaugural address from manuscript cut into many narrow pages, was firm, resonant and a trifle husky. An amplifier echoed the new President's words in hollow fashion over the crowd. The sun struck tho Inaugural stand in such a manner as to make Harding’s head appear in a halo. It was so marked that there was comment on It from the crowd. The President was interrupted frequently by applause. There was a great outburst when he said: “Old World su-per-government is contrary to anything we cherish." Repeated shouts of approval from the fringes of the throng testified that his words were carrying to the very edge of the vast multitude. The new President pledged an Administration that will stand four-square on the principles of the republic as laid down by its founders. He promised his Administration will work unceasingly for the furtherance of America's greatness in world affairs and for the expansion of her eommerca and influence-—all without deviating from Washington's policy of "no entangling alliances” with foreign powers. . ~ PreaMient elfrt Harding, Mrs. Harding and jnembers of the inaugural committee left the President-elect's hotel at 16:20 for the White House to meet President and Mrs. Wilson.

He declared flatly against permanent military alliances. “Our eyes will never be blind to a developing menace; our ears never deaf to the call of civilization,” he said.

"There was no American failure to resist the attempted reversion of civilization, there will be no failure today or tomorrow,” Harding said later. "We shall give no people just cause to make war upon us,” he said at another point. "We hold no national prejudices, we entertain no spirit of revenge, we do not hate, we do not covet, we dream of no conquest nor boast of armed prowess. If, despite this attitude, war is forced upon us, I earnestly hope a way may ba found which will unify our individual and collective strength and consecrate all America materially and spiritually, body and soul, to national defense.

Harding of Ohio. Mr. Harding became the new President at 1:17 p. m., almost an hour before President Wilson had left the Capitol, returning alone by motor to his new residence. Mr. Wilson's effort was a game one. Under a strain which was apparent to all who saw his drawn face and halting figure, he rode to the capltol with his successor, signed somo last-minute bills, allowed others to die by a pocket veto and then, tired and much moved, he was assisted to his car and rode alone down the long avenue, while the attention of thousands outside the capitol was riveted on the new President. \ EFFORT WINS ADMIRATION.

I would rejoice to acclaim the era of the Golden Rule and crown it with the autocracy of service,” he said. “I pledge an administration wherein all the agencies of government will function purely as an expression of popular will.” Then he paused, and In the hush-that spread over the vast crowd, he made hie solemn pledge: “I accept my part with single-minded-ness of purpose and humility of spirit and Implore the favor and guidance of God in His Heaven. Wl.h these I am unafraid and confidently face the future, “I hare taken the solemn oath of office on that passage of Holy Writ wherein It is asked: What doth the Lord require of thee but to do justly, and to love mercy and to walk humbly with thy God?’ “Whis I plight to God and couns try.” MI ST NOT BE INVOLVED. The progress of tt Nation, he asserted, proves that wisdom of the policy of noninvolvement in Old World affairs.
