FORMER SWEETHEART OF PRESIDENT TRAVELS 100 MILES TO SEE HIM By HERBERT WAGGONER Special Dispatch to the Harrisburg Telegraph. Copyright. Hutchinson, June 26.

She is Mrs.

A. A. Shuler, of Buck lin.V With her husband, son and granddaughter, she had traveled more than 100 miles to renew her childhood acquaintance with Warren G. Harding, once the son of a neighboring doctor farmer, but today the President of the United States. It was 'back in the seventies that Mattie as she was then, and Warren Harding supplied talk for the new Caledonia, Ohio, grownups when she was accustomed to allow him to carry her books home from school and occasionally walk back after dusk from church.

But the romance was broken when the Hardings moved to Marion, while the Neals decided to "trek" to Missouri. There was a letter or two at first, but, as Mrs. Shuler rather coyly confessed to day, there were other boys in the new home, and. after all, Marion was a long distance back East.

IS OPPOSED Reading Officials Claim Consoli dation Would Affect Work ers Here Increased Activity is being shown In the campaign of the railroads in the matter of consolidation of rail way properties in the United States i Into a limited number of systems. Much has been said regarding statements made before the Interstate Commerce Commission at Washing ton. Railroad officials are now g.v ing facts to Chambers of Commerce, business organizations, and letting the shippers know what consolida tion means if brought about. One point brought out here yes terday by E. F.

Fegley, assistant passenger agent of the Reading Railway, was that a consolidation with the Baltimore and Ohio would cause many Reading employes to lose positions. That a consolidation with the Baltimore and Ohio would put the latter in full control. He said, in part: "Folk in and about Harrisburg, shippers, employes and citizens in general, do not know the situation thoroughly, and for tha't reason the Reading Company desires to put facts before the public. If the Reading is consolidated with the Baltimore and according to plans mapped it would place the Baltimore and Ohio in tul control. This would mean a change in the nresent employe system of the Reading Rail way, and the elimination of certain employes; or, in plain words, Reading men would lose their jobs.

Important Center "Harrisburg is an important part of the Reading System and the business developed here would undergo many changes; in some cases affecting Harrisburg as a railroad center. Reading oiheiais know conditions here, and just how to deal with the public, and get the best results, Har risburs ia too imnortant to lose out on; facilities which make this city a valuable railroad center." After pointing out the value to Harrisburg of the Harrisburg and Reading divisions, the H. P. and Gettysburg branches, and to the necessity for arousing the people to what it will mean if a consolidation was ordered, Mr. Fegley said: "In addition to knowing the conditions, we also have had the interests of the passengers and the shippers and the employes at heart.

Our patrons here have helped us to reach our present standards and we desire to maintain them. Under control of officials from outside this section, these standards are likely to drop, for it is a known fact that outsiders cannot have the same interest in 'the local problems that wo have, who have been taking care of these interests for years. "We are conducting local campaigns here and all along the line 'to show the advantages of local management, and to bring public sentiment to the point where it will call for the Interstate Commission to disapprove the plan for Baltimore and Ohiooand Reading consolidation. "You have the Rutherford yards and shops here and the Harrisburg yards and station and other important units in the system, and we want you to keep them. We want Harrisburg workmen in them and we want those workmen to prosper.

We look for Harrisburgers, who are interested in our railroad, to cooperate with us in keeping the Reading what it Is a railroad designed to serve local interests and local business and local people." In addition to sending out personal workers in this campaign, the Philadelphia and Reading Railway Company has issued a printed state ment, covering many pages, showing facts presented by A. T. Dice, presi dent of the Reading Railway, and how the affiliated companies of the Reading System affect Harrisburg, This printed statement gives Har risburgs connection with the Reading System in detail, and includes early history of the. Lebanon Valley and other brances of the Reading running into Harrisburg; and to the development of this territory by the Reading Railway. In conclusion, that all the hard work of years in building up a satisfactory system for transportation of freight and pas sengers, consolidation with the Bal timore and Ohio would mean an entire change, Harrisburg losing many of its excellent railroad facili ties.
