With President Harding

WASHINGTON, July 27. The de
mand for the soldiers bonus is "based

gratuity to the ex-service men is un

tion for economic loss while the men
were in service. President Harding
declared he did not oppose the bonus,
but thought it should wait till condi
tions are more settled.

News That's Up to the Me
This evening a picture out of the
usual is to be shown at the Grand. It
is a Rupert Hughes story picturized.
"Hold Your Horses' is the title and it
features Tom Moore in the title role.
While it deals' with a recent arrival
from the old sod the plot turns so
many corners and so rapidly that it
keeps the audience guessing from the
first shot to the last.
From a street cleaner to higher am
bitions and the success and diversity
makes it a going concern from the time
of introduction from the liner that
docks at New York.
The girl in the case also makes a
major part of the story and between
that and politics and love-making Tom
Moore has both hands full.

reports of his intention of visiting Can

At the same time, Krassin discussed
possibilities of resuming Russian
South American trade.
"The sincere desire of the Russian
people and the Russian government is
to be at peace with all the peoples of
the world," Krassin told me.
"Beginning with the spring of 1919,
the Russian government made constant
official proposals to all the powers par
ticipating in the intervention and block
ade to begin peace negotiations for the
adjustment of all the points at issue
and the establishment of peaceful re

Krassin declared that it i extreme
ly possible in connection with these af
fairs it may be necessary for him to

Krassin displayed an unusual inter
est in South American trading possi
bilities. "South America is particularly inter
esting for Russia, as a consumer of
certain Russian exports," he said.
As examples he named wine, tobac
co, carpets and articles of peasant man
ufacture, also antiques and hand-made
goods set aside for export.
"It is possible, however, that South
America will be able also to find in
Russia, during 'the next few jears, a
market for certain raw materials and
foodstuffs, while Russia has not yet
sufficiently re-established its transport
and agriculture," he declared.
VISITING CARSON
ELIMINATES DETOUR
FUNERAL SERVICES HELD
The bothersome detour over Galena
hill on the road between Carson and
Reno is to be abandoned today and
automobiles will be able to take to the
new concrete highway. Heavy trucks
are to be kept off the road for another
ten days, which will give the concrete
a better chance to set and harden.
The detour has been one of the men
aces of auto travel the past two
months and it has been with reluctance
that machines were directed to Reno.
Take the east-side road is the advice
and avoid troubles.
Other sections of the highway will be
thrown open as fast as the concrete
ripens and before fall most of the trip
between this city and Reno can be ne
gotiated over the first concrete road in
the state.
