Life Story of Warren Washington. -- Warren Gamaliel Harding died suddenly Thursday evening from a stroke of apoplexy at 7:30 San Francisco time (10.30 p. m. Chicago and 11:30 p. m. New York). The end was shockingly sadden and came in the midst of apparent convalescence. The special train left San Francisco 7 p. m. Friday, routed directly to capital by way of Reno, Ogden, Cheyenne, Omaha and Chicago. The train made no stops en route except those necessary for its operation. The body of the President was borne in the rear car. The car was lighted at night, and at all times two •oldiers and two sailors, a part of-a naval and military guard of sixteen enlisted men, stood at attention guarding the casket. The train carried the presidential party as composed during the trip across the country to Alaska, and aljo General Pershing, Atto/ney General Daugherty, and Mr. and Mrs. E. F. Hemsberg and family, Mrs. Remsberg feeing a sister of the President. Untold thousand of American citizens stood with uncovered heads, day and night, as the train passed. Through Nevada in the hours of daylight and darkness there were jnourners at the stations. Utah contributed its thousands the next day. Wyoming's citizens mourned en masse. And so on across the continent At jthe cities, especially, large crowds assembled at the stations. President Harding dlfd of a stroke pf apoplexy at 7:30 o'clock Thursday flight (10:30 p. m., New York time). iHls exact age was fifty-seven years •nd nine months. , The end came suddenly while Mrs. |Harding was reading to him from a (magazine and after what had been icalled the best day he had had since jthe beginning of his Illness exactly one week before. Suddenly it was noticed that the gesident was shuddering and gaspl. Mrs. Harding rnn to him. but was unable to respond to her inquiries. She then ran to the door of ithe sick room and called to the secret service men there to summon the (President's physicians. * When General Sawyer reached the Iroom the President was still alive, hut Ito died almost at once. • Collapse Is Sudden. • "In greater detail the facts the "death are related. With Mrs. Harding to the sickroom were two nurses. Due to the seeming Improvement !n the ^President's condition, members of his jparty, including the physicians who Wd remained In constant call, were confident they gould leave the hotel •for a few hours' relaxation. Many of "them were at dinner. Mrs. Harding, however, refusing to desert the post, was seated by the 1>edside, reading to her husband, when at 7:10 o'clock the President suddenly collapsed. His breathing, which had been quick ever since the illness overtook him, suddenly became spasmodic. Mrs. Harding, leaving the nurses to take whatever steps they could in the •emergency, ran to the door of the presidential suite. "Get the doctors," she called, as she can part way Into the almost deserted «orridor. A secret service operative •was seated about twenty feet down ithe hall. She hurriedly told the secret iservlce man that the President had had a sudden and seemingly severe relapse, and begged the detective to try to locate Doctor Boone or any of the (Other physicians. The secret service man took up the aearch for the physicians, while Mrs. Harding returned to the bedside. They located Doctor Sawyer at once. Hoover Arrives Quickly. Word of the President's sudden turti jfor the worse spread through the hotel [and efTorts were launched at once to Sy to locate the members of his offlal party. 1 Herbert Hoover, secretary of commerce and one of the closest cabinet members to the President, was the •rst of the cabinet members to reach the bedside. He hurried Into the corridor, already aware that the ,-Preslient's life was ebbing fast, and the door to the suite closed behind him. A 4>hort time after he came out. He was completely broken up and could not speak to the newspaper men as they gathered around him on his way down to his own quarters. Tears were running down his cheeks and he seemed to be stunned by grief ae he made his way to the elevator. Mayor James Rolph of San Francisco was the next to arrive, and he, too, after a visit to the death room, was Inarticulate. Official Statement. _ It was aboift twenty minutes from the time Mr. Harding was stricken (7:10 p. m.) until he died (7:30). The circumstance is told briefly in the following* formal announcement: "The President died at 7:30 p. m. Mrs. Harding and the two nurses. Miss Ruth Powderly and Mi6S Sue Drusser, were In the room at the time. Mrs. Harding was reading Jo the President when utterly without warning a slight shudder passed through his frame, he collapsed, and all recognized that the end had come. A stroke of apoplexy was the cause of his death. "Within a few moments all of the President's official party had been summoned." Dr. Boone said later that Miss Powderly looked at the President while Mrs. Harding was reading to him and was struck by a great improvement In the patient's appearance. "Doesn't he look fine?'**Ttfie * said, turning to Mrs. Harding. Then the nurse turned ~back to look at the President to verify her comment. Mrs. Harding looked, too. They saw a shudder pass over the sick man's frame. That marked the stroke that produced death. The following telegram from the members of the cabinet who are here was Immediately sent to Vice President Coolldge, Chief Justice Taft, and those members of the cabinet who were not in San Francisco: 'The President died at 7:30 p. m. from a stroke of cerebral apoplexy. The end came peacefully and without warning. "DAUGHERTY, "WORK." "WALLACES' "HOOVER." A Shocking Surprise. Nothing could j, have been a more sh(»ckin& surprise. But un hour earlier General Sawyer had been telling newspaper men that Mr. Harding had had the best day since he became seriously ill the preceding Saturday. He said that the President had detinitelf entered upon the stage of convalescence and that everythlqg went to show that Mr. Harding was on the road to ultimate recovery. The menil>ers of the official party-- those who had accompanied the President and Mrs. Harding--had no warning that the President was in danger. They, like the newspaper men, had been assured that a fatal termination of the President's illness was a thing not to be expected, in view of his apparent Improvement--the evident lessening of serious symptoms--in the last 48 hours. George Christian, Jr., secretary to the President and his devoted friend, was in Los Angeles with Mrs. Christian. He had gone there at the President's solicitation ,to read at a Masonic gathering an address which the President had prepared in the expectation that he would deliver It in person. The newspaper men had an engagement with. General Sawyer for 8 o'clock. He was to tell them then how the President was progressing toward recovery. The bulletin came at 7 530. Regarding the manner In which Mrs. Harding sustained the shock, an official statement given to the press by Judson D. Welllver of the White House staff, a member of the President's official party, said: Mrs. Harding, who from the beginning of the President's illness had expressed complete confidence In his recovery, did not break down. On the other hand, she continued, as from the beginning, the bravest member of the group. When It was realized that the President had actually passed away, she turned to those In the room, whose concern had turned to her, and said: 'I am not going to break dQwp-'" Warren Gamaliel Harding, twentyninth president of th£ United States, was born November 2, 1865, on his grandfather's farm Just outside the village of Blooming Grove, In Morrow county, Ohio. He was descended from two pioneer American families, hardy Holland Dutch on the one side and liberty- loving Scotch on the other. His father, Dr. George T. Harding, is still a practicing physician In Marlon, O., despite his advanced age of seventy- nlne years. His mother was Phoebe Elizabeth Dickenson Harding. Mr. Harding was a self-made man In the best sense of the phrase. He worked on his grandfather's farm and attended the villag«^ school until he was fourteen years ^d, and then he entered the Ohio Central college at Iberia. He worked hit way, through that Institution by cutting corn, painting his neighbors' barns and helping on the grading of the roadbed of the T. i O. C. railroad. He also played in the village band and was editor of the college paper. When he graduated from the college, Warren went to work In the village printing office. At the time he was nineteen years old, his father moved to Marlon with the family and there aided Warren financially In gaining control of the Marion Star, of which he was publisher until after he issumtd the office of president of the United States. Already he knew how to set type and to do all the other duties of a printer, and when the linotype was Introduced he learned to operate that machine Always he carried as a pocket piece the printer's rule he used In those days. The Star was his idol and lie was very proud of It and of the more, than friendly relations that existed between him and his employees. There, was never a strike on the paper, and about fourteen years ago he Instituted a profit-sharing plan whereby the employees received dividends that were pTtld them in the form of stock in the paper. Mr. Harding was identified With-the Industries that sprang mm W:% ' m'" v.* : V> Of the ; • 4, '*• - vvi; was so successful that In the election of November 4 he received 404 electoral votes to 127 for James II. Cox, the Democratic nominee. He was Inaugurated March 4, 1921, With a degree of simplicity In the ceremonies that pleased the American people. Classed, when In the senate, as a conservative, President Harding did not depart markedly fPbm conservative lines when In the Wh!t6 House, though his supporters always said he was as progressive as the good of the country warranted an<f as conditions permitted. He, like President Roosevelt, had a great coal miners' strike on his hands, and labored hard' and with a measure of success to bring It to a peaceful and just end. Arms Limitation Conference. The outstanding accomplishment of his administration was the great international conference for the limitation of armament held in Washington, opening on Armistice day, November 11, 1921. At his Instigation the conference was authorized by congress and after feeling out the big powers and finding them agreeable he Issued Invitations to Great Britain, France, Belglum, Italy, Japan, China, the Netherlands and Portugal. Each country sent some of Its most eminent statesmen as delegates, those of the United States being Secretary of State Hughes, chairman of the conference; Senators Lodge of Massachusetts and. Underwood of Alabama, and ex-Secretary of State Ellhu Root. The conference adjourned February 0, 1922, after negotiating these treaties: A covenant of limitation to naval armament between the United States, Great Britain, France, Japan and Italy. A treaty between the same powers as to the use of submarines and noxious gases in warfare. ~ - A treaty between the United States, Great Britain, France and Japan relating to their insular possessions and their Insular dominions in the Pacific, with a declaration reserving American rights In mandated territory.- Vf ; • - ' M mm m v-m WARREN <L rtARDINO up in Marlon" as it grew from a town 1 of 44)00 to a city «fC more than 30.000. He was a director In a bank and' in several manufacturing companies, and was a trustee of t Trinity Baptist church. - • His Rise In Politics. 'V As editor and publisher of' it iW*ly Republican paper It was inevitable that Mr. Harding should take an active Interest In politics, and his attainments brought him to the front in the state. He was a member of the Ohio senate from 1900 to 1904, and then served as lieutenant governor of the state. In 1910 he was the Republican nominee for governor, but was defeated. In 1915 be was sent to the United States senate, serving until 1920, when he resigned to make the campaign for the presidency. In the preconvention campaign that year he had been looked on as one of the possible nominees for the high office, but his defeat In the primaries for election of delegates from OlUo seemed to spoil his chances. However, the conservative leaders of the Republican party prevailed In the gathering in the Chicago Coliseum, and Mr. Harding was noml nated. His campaign was based largely on opposition to American participation In the League of Nations, and •wer 4ud Tunklns. - 1 Jud Tunklns says his wife thinks ievery man should be compelled to put a twelve or fourteeh-hour day at tils regular work instead of hanging wound and Interfering with thetiouseleaning. i. •• • ill' ^ J "Some" Voice.

A treaty between the nine powers in the conference relating to principles and policies to be followed in matters concerning China. A treaty between the nine powers relating to Chinese customs tariff. Because France refused to consider the limitation of land armament at the present time, that part of the conference fell through. But what it did achieve was considered a great step toward the attainment of world peace. The treaties were soon ratified by the United States senate and the British parliament, and ttte <rther nations followed suit, though for* a long time It was feared France would not accept the pacts. However, President Harding lived to see them Ratified by the 'French chamber and senate. Favored Entering World Court. Mr. Harding had not been long In the White House before It appeared that- he did not favor entire Isolation of the United States from European affairs, but believed this country would have to do its part In the restoration of Europe to peace and stability. This feeling became more evident early In 1923 when he proposed that America should accept member- Ship jyg. the International Court of Juallut* the m«plcM«rc&^ The Fterident wqp as ' tw« com#*, lalgue, but beli Wplld be lndepei ^ Organisation. Against the advtfee oC some leifders of his party, he reiterated this advice on several occasions, and his plan formed the subject of somcjp of his addresses on his last and fatal* • trip through the West. He did no| think It would spUt his party, an<^ boldly continued to advocate It. Not* withstanding this, It was assumed to be almost a certainty that Predldest Harding would- be renominated in the Republican qatlonal convention, of 1924. Mr. Harding's home life was ideal save that he had no children. He and Mrs. Harding, who was Miss Florence Kllpg of Marlon, were devoted to each other and she was always his true helpmate, both in Ohio and in Washington. In the national capital Mr& Harding quickly made herself loved by all with whom she came In contact, and during the Western trip she was more eager even than the President to meet and mix with all kinds of people. His Western Tripw" President Hardlng^s Alaska trip wai originally planned for the sunltner of 1922. He Inherited the. so-called "Alaska problem." Alaska seemed to be on the down grade, with decrease In population and mining output, threatened extinction of the fishing Industry and numerous other unfavorable^: symptoms. The situation apparently' called for the 'establishment of a'deflnlte Alaskan policy. Various plans were discussed, including a transfer of control to the Interior department from the score or ifiore of governing bureaus. President Harding's plans for 1922 came to naught, but this year he determined to get first-hand information. He was accompanied by Sec* retary Work (ft the Interior department, Secretary Wallace pf the Agricultural department and Secretary Hoovei; of the Department of Commerce, all of whom are immediately concerned In the Alaskan situation. The President left Washington a^ the end of June and journeyed leisure* ly to the Pacific Northwest by special train, making speeches at St. Louis, Denver, Helena, Spokane and other cities. Incidentally be visited two o^ the national parks. First he went to Zlon in Utah, the newest of onr na-' tional parks, which Is a many-colored gorge cut by the Rio Virgin. Next he visited Yellowstone in Wyoming, created in 1875, the first national park In -history and largest and most famous of the nineteen parks of our system. Here he motored, boated, fished, fed the bears and had a good time. His plans also Included a visit to Yosemlt« upon his return trip, but that wa* abandoned. Saw Much of Alaska. • The President celebrated the Fourth pf July in the United States and then Started for Alaska on the U. S. transport Henderson. His Alaskan trip was extensive. He went the length of the hew government railroad and visited the capital, Juneau, and the principal cities. He also was shown the best of the majestic scenery. On his return trip Mr. Harding stopped off at Vancouver, creating precedent In that he was the first American President to step on Cans* dian soil. The President arrived at Seattle July 27 and reviewed from the bridge of the Henderson a fleet of a dozen or so battleships under command of Admiral H. P. Jones, each of which gave him the national salute of twenty-one guns. Even then he was suffering from the ailment that resulted in his death, and soon after that the rest of his trip, which was to Include a return to the East via the Panama canal, was cancelled. President Harding made a public address at Seattle, setting forth his views on the Alaskan situation. ^jtacBe oX points were these: : "Alaska for Alaskans.* ? At J "There Is no need of governmentmanaged, federally-pald-for hothouse development . ... there must be no reckless sacrificing of resources." "Alaska is destined for statehood In a few years.' "Where there is possibility of betterment In federal machinery of administration, Improvement should and will be effected. Other conclusions presented by President Harding were: That generous appropriation ihoold be made for road building. That the federal government should be more liberal In encouraging the technical, scientific and demonstration work In agriculture. That restrictions should be laid on the fisheries and on the forests. That the development of the coal mines must await time and economic conditions. That the government should retain ownership and operation of the Alaskan railroad, During the President's illness the greatest concern waa felt and pressed in all foreign countries, and their governments were constantly ad* vised of his condition.
