GREAT TEMPLE . IS DEDICATED Harding Pays Tribute to Leader of Civil War Times. ACCEPTS LINCOLN MEMORIAL Sees Former President Greater In Saving the Republic Than Freeing Slaves—Says Supreme Chapter Not Emancipation. Washington, June 1. —“Maintained nion and nationality" rather than emancipation” was declared to be ,the supreme chapter iu American history by President Harding iu an address accepting the Lincoln memorial in behalf of the American people, Lincoln ould have compromised .with •slavery, Mr. Harding declared, while cleaving to his great purpose—the maintenance of the “inheritance handed down by the founding fathers.” Declaring that the new memorial was fittingly placed near the towering spire of the Washington monument, Mr. Harding said that Washington, the founder, and Lincoln, the saviour, offered outstanding proof that a representative popular government, constitutionally founded, can find Its own way to salvation and accomplishment Foremost among the men who gathered at this culminating ceremony of Decoration day were the aged veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic. The President spoke in part as fol : lows: “It is a supreme satisfaction officially to accept bn behalf of the government this superb monument to the saviour of the republic! No official duty could be more welcome, no official function more pleasing. This memorial edifice is a noble tribute, gratefully bestowed, and in its offering is the reverent heart of America; in its dedication is tiie consciousness of reverence and gratitude beautifully expressed. “Somehow my emotions incline me to speak simply p.s a reverent and grateful American, rather than one iu official responsibility. I am thus inclined because the true measure of Lincoln is in his place today In the heart of American citizenship, though half a century. has passed since his colossal service and his martyrdom. In every moment of peril, in every hour of discouragement, whenever the clouds gather, there Is the image of Lincoln to rivet our hopes and to renew our faith. there is a glow of triumph over national achievement, there comes the reminder that but for Lincoln’s heroic and unalterable faith in Ithe Union, these triumphs could not have been. “No great character in all history has been more eulogized, no rugged figure more monumental, no likeness imore portrayed. Painters and sculptors portray as they see, and no two see precisely alike. So, too, is there varied emphasis in the portraiture of words, but all are agreed about the rugged greatness and the surpassing tenderness and unfailing wisdom of this master martyr. “History is concerned with the things accomplished. Biography deals with the methods and the Individual attributes which led to accomplishment. "&■ “The supreme chapter In history is not emancipation, though that achievement • would have exalted Lincoln throughout all the ages. The simple truth Is that Lincoln, recognizing an established order, would have compromised with the slavery that existed, if he could have halted its extension Hating human slavery ns he did, he doubtless believed in its ultimate abolition through the developing conscience of the American people, but he would have Been the last man in the repuhlic to. resort to arms to effect Its abolition. Emancipation was a means to the great end—maintained union and nationality. “Here was the great purpose, here the towering hope, here the supreme faith. He treasured the inheritance handed down by the founding fathers, the ark of the covenant wrought through their heroic Sacrifices and builded in their inspired genius. The Union must be preserved. It was the central thought, the unalterable purpose, the unyielding intent, the foundation of faith. It, was worth every sacrifice. Justified every cost, steeled the heart to sanction every crimsoned tide of blood. - _ "Here was the great experiment—popular government and constitutional union—menaced by greed expressed In human chattels. With the greed restricted and unthreatening. he could temporize. When it challenged federal authority and threatened the Union, it pronounced its own doom.” Big Sawmill Burned. Rhinelander, Wis., May 30.—Fire' destroyed the sawmill of .the Stevens Lumber company here.

Time for the Five Hundred Miles Was 5:17:80.79, an Average of 94.48 an Hour. Indianapolis, May 31, —A broth of a lad with Irish blue eyes and a wide Irish smile, Murphy by name, caned his niche in the hall of motoring fame before more than 135.000 speed enthusiasts at the Speedway when he flashed over the wire a winner in the greatest of all 500-mlle races. That he smashed records to smithereens was but a bit of the glory he won, for the race he drove * was greater than records. He won $35,000 in cash. For Jimmy did something which never has been accomplished before on any track. He took the lead from the very start and he never “relinquished that lead during one Instant of the entire grind of more than five hours of driving. Jimmy was off to first from the start He had qualified his big white Miller engine in the Murphy special faster than any other car In the race, and for that performance was on the pole of the first line of starters. He was first away on the pacing lap, following Barney “Olfleid; wus first over the line at the completion of the pacing lap and the start of the race proper, and was first over the wire when Capt. Eddie Rlckenbacker waved the first checkered ffiig for the finish. He clipped more than sixteen minutes off the best previous record ever made at Indianapolis. His time for the distance was 5:17:80.79, an average of 94,48 miles an hour, as against the old record of 5:33:55.51, or 89.84 miles an hour made in 1915 by Ralph DePalma iu a Mercedes. Jimmy riacbd before the greatest crowd which ever saw a 500-mile event. The latest estimate Issued by Speedway officials of the attendance came shortly after noon, when It was said 135,000 persons were in the enclosure. As hundreds more arrived before the finish of the race, 140,000 lo 145,0000 would be a reasonable estimate. While major honors went to Morphy, Harry Hartz, at the wheel of a Dusenberg, cannot be overlooked. Against a less able driver and a less speedy car, Hartz would have been an easy victor. He Jumped Into second place 60 miles after the start and held it throughout. He made constant efforts to catch Murphy, but was unable to do so. His time, 5220:44.38. average 93.54 miles ah hour, also was far In advance of the record; Eddie Bearne piloted a French Ballot car to tljird place in 5:22:26.06 for an average of 93.04 miles an hour, while Ralph De Raima, In a Duesenburg, was fourth In 5:31:04.65, for an average of 90.61 miles an hour. Ora Halbe, with a Duesenburg, was fifth in 5:31:13.45, for an average of 90.56 while Jerry Wonderlich, in a Duesenburg, was sixth in 5:37:52.84, an average of 88.79 miles an hour.

Chicago, May 30. —Wages of 400,000 maintenance of way railway employees are cut from 1 to 5 eeuts an hour, begiuniug July 1, according to a decision announced by the railroad labor board.

A dissenting opinion is filed ly three labor members of the board. It is believed to be the first time a dissent has been registered under the signature of all members of u group. The labor group contends that the wage scale provided in the decision is insufficient to sustain life on anything like The basis of American standards. They cite table and opinions of social workers and arbitration specialists to sustain the dissent. The pay scale of maintenance of way employees after July 1 will be from 23 to 35 cents au hour rs compared with the preseut rate of 28 to 40 cents. i Iu announcing a separate decision for tills class of rail workers, the board states that it is complying with a request made by the United Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees and Railroad Shop Laborers.

The minimum rates uthorized In the present decision will apply only on a few divisions in a small group of states, principally in the South and Southwest. H. F. HENWOOD IS PARDONED Denver Man Shot G.
