INAUGURAL PLANS
- TO BE SIMPLE
Harding Decides to Take Oath of Of
fice from Usual East Portico
' (By Associated Press)
MARION, Ohio, Jan. 12.-Upsetting
for the second time plans for his in
aufcuiu'.'tticn President-elect Harding
suggested to pfficials in charge of tha
arrangements at "Washington today
that they had gone further than ne
cessary toward simplicity by deciding
to hold the ceremony In the senate
chamber.
Observance of the usual custom of
taking -the oath on the east portisj cf
the capitol building Mr. Harding tel
egraphed to Washington would be
quite agreeable to him and would per
mit a much greater number of spec
tators to be present. If no i money
were spent in the erection, of special
stands,' he said, there could be no ob
jection from the viewpoint of . econ
omy. In his previous telegVam asking for
a simple ceremony, the president-elect
had suggested that the. oath be ad
ministered either within the capitol
or on the east portico. The congres
sional committee's decision .to adopt
the former course, however, resulted
In vigorous protests from many who
had arranged to go to Washington
for the event, and Mr. Harding paid
today that he considered a popular de
sire to hear the inaugural address
"natural and becoming."
On the other hand a sheaf of tele
grams commending the,, decision for a
curtailment of the unusual inaugural
pomp were made public today at Hard
ing headquarters .nd Mr. Harding
expressed the opinion that his course
had the apprbval of the . people gen
erally. At the same time that the president
elect is shaping details of his inaugu
ration he also is continuing his work
on the cabinet problem and is con
summating plans for his vacation trip
to Florida. No announcement on
either of these subjects was forth
coming today, but it was indicated
that there might be some definite
news regarding both in the very near
future.
CITY AWARDED BIG
DAMAGE VERDICT
Forfeiture of Bond of Railroad Company
is Granted by Federal District
Court.
The city of Tensacola was awarded
$10,000 by the jury In the federal court
yesterday in the suit-against the Pensa
cola & Memphis Railway company in a
suit for the forfeiture of a bond of the
company. The bond was put up to guar
antee the construction of a portion of a
rail line leading from the city
At the close of ,the time specified in
which the construction of the rail line
should be started the company had not
begun work on the contract and asked
the city for an extension of time. The
extension was allowed and at the conclu
sion of the extended time limit the
company asked for a further extension.
The second application was denied and
the city brought suit to forfeit the bond
of $1J,000. which the rail conpany had
put up to guarantee its work. The case
has taken up the majority of the time of
the federal court for two days and it
was only late yesterday afternoon that
the arguments of each counsel was com
pleted. The company was represented by
Sullivan & Sullivan, while the city was
represented by City Attorney John B.
Jones. .
The rail company contended that the
erection of the central fire station on
South Spring street interfered with their
project in that it was constructed on
ground which had been proposed as a
site for the depot.
RAIL EARNINGS LESS
THAN EXPECTATIONS
WASHINGTON. Jan. 12. Railroads
earned $37,741,397 during November, or
$41,344,063 leR3 than was expected under
the increased rates, according to figures
announced today by the Association of
Railway Executives. The . figures show
a loss of about one percent over the
October earnings, it is said. Total op
erating revenue for November was $563.
697.0S7. which is 34 percent greater than
in November last year, while the oper
ating expenses for the month were
$4S5.4S6.8S3M which is 29 percent greater
than in November a year ago. Net oper
ating income, according to the associa
tion, was 170 percent greater than a
year ago, due principally to the coal
miners' strike last year, which reduced
freight tonnage.
In the southern district, revenues were
$Si5. 759,1 S3, while expenses were $77,338.
213, and the operating income was $8.
S79.612. On the basis of the incomes re
ported, the association said, tho rail
roads would earn but 3 1-2 percent on
their total valuation as fixed by the in
terstate commerce commission, instead
of the six percent fixed as a proper re
turn in the transoortation. act.

LECTURES DRAWING
LARGE AUDIENCES
Will Depict "The Story Your Faco
Tells"' at Fre e Lecture at
Garden Tonight , '.'
"Well, How are you tonight?" askef
Mrs. Gertrude Steele Chambers as she
came out on the stage at the Garden
Theatre last night, and her audience
returned lustily. "Fine , x and dandy,
why shouldn't we be?" That is the
first step which Mrs. Chambers j has
given her enthusiastic audiences on
the road to a psychologically correct
life. She has made her audiences
three promises which she '.says can
ring true in the life of every individ
ual: "You can be well, . you can be
happy, and you can be successful.1'
Her lecture last night was on "The
Control of Kmotions, Worry a Cura
ble Mental Disease," and ,in it she
brought out the points that the de
structive emotions, which almost ev
eryone allows to dominate part of.
their daily lives, cause a poison to be J
developed in the blood and that ooison
works' to bring ill health, disease, and
an untimely death. She said. 'Even
Mr. Edison who has woiked such
wonders with electricity cannot tell
just .what it is, but he can get results
with'' it. And so .with the emotions.
We know that griefs, injustices, fears
and 1 egrets working as emotion1, do
poison and that happy or as we call
them constructive emotions cause
health and strength. And in this as
in all else, kndwledge is ability and
ignorance is non-equipment."
Mrs. Chambers says she is not af
filiated with any religious organiza
tion. She is dealing with the simple
and tangled problems of human life
from a scientific viewpoint.
The subject of her lecture tonight,
which is free to, the public as all her
lectures are, is "The Story Your Face
Tells."

WASHINGTON. Jan. 12. The senate
agrain today failed to reach a vote on the
bil! proposing federal operation of the
I Muscle Shoals, Alabama, nitrate plant.
rrotracted debate on many amendments
developed today , but it was. hoped that

In disposing of amendments today the
senate adopted one by Senator Wads
worth, Republican, New York, prominent
in opposing the bill, changing the plan
for capitalizing the project so as to pro
vide" for a five percent return to the
government on federal investment. Sup
porters of the bill opposed the amend
ment but failed by a margin . of two
votes. ... . .
Another amendment, by Senator Len

adopted, provides that the government
nitrate corporation be assisted by pro
ceeds of sales from reserve nitrate sup
plies of the government such sales being
limited to 150.000 tons, or about half of
