Washington.—President Harding, ad
dressing congress on the state of the
union, placed the transportation sit
uation, prohibition enforcement and
farm credits in the forefront of the
national problems preBBlng for solutlor*.
Also he took occasion to reply direct
ly to those whom ho said had assumed
that, the United States had taken it
self “aloof and apart, unmindful of
world obligations."
Prohibition
On tho prohibition situation, the ex
ecutive nssertod there wore conditions
of enforcement "which savor of natiom
wide scandal." He made no recom
mendations, hut announced his purpose
to call an early conference of the gov
ernors of the states and territories
with tho federal authorities to formu
late definite policies of national amb
state co-operation in tho administering
Of tho lftWB.
Transportation
Declaring tliero was no problem ex-;
ceodlng in importance the one of transi
portatlon, Mr. Harding told congress
there was need to bogln on plans to
co-ordinate all transportation facilities
—rail, water and motor. As to the re
lief of the railrond problem, lie suggest-,
od merger of lines into systems, a fa
cilitated interchange of freight cars and
A consolidation of facilities generally.
Turning to the recent railroad strike,
the president proposed that the federal
tribunal dealing with*disputes between
carries and their workers be given am
ple authority to enforce its decisions.
He voiced a preference for abolition of
tho railroad labor board and the plac
ing of its functions under an enlarged
Interstate commerce commission. Should
the decision be to continue this board In
existence, however, he suggested that
the partisan membership bo abolished.
Farm Credits
The only specific recommendation of
the executive for enactment of legisla
tion at this, the short session of con
gress, rotated to tho permanent estab
lishment of widened farm creditB. He
urged both ample farm production cred
its and enlarged land credits through
enlargement of the powers of the farm
loan board and reminded congress that
epeclol provision must be piade for live
stock production credits.
Other Recommendations
Other recommendations Included:
Registration of aliens; more rigid ex
aminations of emigrants at embarka
tion ports; federal assistance in the
education of aliens; a constitutional
amendment giving congress authority
over child labor; a constitutional
amendment restricting the Issue of tax
exempt securities by tho federal goV-
( ernment, the state, municipalities aud
counties; a study by congress of the
wide-spread difference between produc
tion costs and prices to consumers; the
survey of a plan to draft all the re
sources of the nation, human and mate
rial, for national defense; a fostering
Interest by the national government in
constructive measures calculated to
promote the unification of steam, water
and electric powers in the eastern in
dustrial region; favorable consideration
of reclamation and irrigation projects
where waste land may be made avail
able for settlement and productivity;
co-operation between the iederal gov*
government, the various states and the
owners of forest lands, to the end that
protection from fire should be made
more effective and replanting encour
aged.

THE INEVITABLE EBB
\EJHEN the ebb tide comes, ap-
patently determined to sweep
you off your feet and carry you down
:o the waiting sea; or when the storm
clouds darken the serene sky and ob
scure your bright, trustworthy guiding
star; summon all your courage and
fasten to reach the nearest friendly
port.
A man naturally thinks it will go
hard with him If the tide turns and
sets against him.
If long accustomed to good fortune,
fair winds nnd sunny weather, a
sudden burst of opposition nt its first
manifestation of energy appals him.
For years he has been making rapid
progress, avoiding the reefs upon
which many of Ills Intimates have
boon wrecked.
When they fennk beneath the growl
ing waters he Binlled complacently
nnd congratulated himself on Ills su
perior skill.
His craft was seaworthy, his vision
clear nnd his hand unerringly sure.
But now, as the ebb froths in anger,
he realizes that his boasted clever
ness was largely n mutter of condi
tion with which his ability had noth
ing to do. I
He has fallen back so long on the
thought that he was a superman, pos
sessed of extraordinary prowess, the
change alarms him.
The Inevitable ebb fills his soul
with inexpressible terror.
Though he shuts hJs mouth bard
and says nothing to his suspecting
wife, ho cannot’ quell'the sickening
fear.
Danger lurks In the waves nnd in
the wind—In the very breath of Idle
gossip.
The shoals are marked by fretting
foaih leaping high in the nlr, but the
night Is dark. 'Ills nerve Is undone.
His once keen perception fails him.
And yet, If he Is a true man, or
a man in the making, this is the one
time In his life when he will show
his mettle, grip the wheel with a
firmer hold, bend his back and reso
lutely face the snarling gale panting
in Its effort to hurl his ship upon the
rocks.
In eVery life there Is a shipwreck
somqwhere buried in the sands of
\ unforgotten years.
It tells the tale ofia day that Is
done, of fond hopds, that were swept
to sea and sucked under the waters
of the Inevitable ebb, from which
no man can always steer clear, but
against which every 4)rave man will
battle until'he makes port.
