Capitol Cancels Inaugural Plans Continued from L'sse On this country and of the various states'. The cost to the public visiting Wash ington would have been vastly more than that. The Washington profiteers had prepared to make up for recent hard times through the opportunities of in auguration week. Hits Profiteers It was this phase of the situation, ns much as the public cost, that moved Mr. Harding to act. HoUls in Wash ington were charging $250 to -$300 for the rooms looking out upon the avenue where the inauguration parade was to pass. Nominally this charge was for inauguration week, but rooms would not be let for lew than a week, and n per son staying two or three days would have been charged the full $230 or $300. The Innugurntlon plans got out of hand, the appetite of the profiteers was whetted, an undue amount of publicity was given to the dazzling and unparal leled volume which was to be done. The adjectives that came out of Woshlngon reminded one of what Tody Hamilton used to do for Barnum's cir cus. Plans exceeded the possibilities of Washington: the inaugural ball was to be revived, but where? There was no place to hold it without either moving n nubile department out of a building or appropriating the Union Stntiou for dancing. This last was seriously pro nosed, although the Union Station Is iainmed with traffic. This shown how inauguration ran awny with the in auguration planners, the extravagant spirit that followed peace pervading everything that was on. I'pon this fell Senator Borah with his hammer, nnd Mr. Hnrdinc quietly disapproving all the time felt that he had to act. Wathlngtrri. Jan. 11. (By A. P.) Announcement that at the request of President-elect Harding tho Washing ton inaugural committee last night had canceled nil plans for the celcbrn tion in connection with his inaugura tion next March was received here with varying emotions. Those who bad op posed reviving the custom of making the occasion a gala one chiefly because of the expense involved expressed com mendation. Others, while sympathizing with the spirit that prompted Mr. Hard ing's request, showed keen disappoint ment. The action of the committee in mcctJ ing the wishes of the President-elect means that the parade, the inaugural ball and other features of the program and many thousands of visitors to the Bracelet Watches Many Styles Our collection of splendid timepieces is large and varied, so that you are sure to find just the one to suit you.

Weeks of work by numerous committees will be undone and approximately $200,000 subscribed by Uoshinglonlans toward tho inntigu ration expenses will be returned. What Longress will do regarding the $C0,000 voted for the cdcctlon of stands nt the capltol had not been determined today. As suggested by Mr. Harding, the Inauguration ceremony, it wns indicated mdav, will consist simply of the formal ndmlulstratlon of the oath of office nnd nn address by tho new President, prob ably from the Bast steps of the capltol. Then Mr. Harding will proceed ftifctly to the hltc House; where, in his own language, he "will hang up bis hat and go to work." Cancellation Ordered Chairman B. B. McLean, of the local Inaugural committee, in anounclng can collation of arrangements for the celo brntlon, said that from the first Mr. Harding had desired an unostentatious ceremony, but had yielded to over whelming requests for a. return to old customs nnd to permit the occasion to be made Into a gala affair In which the whole nation could participate, if it desired. In a telegram to Senator Knox, chair man of the congressional committee having in charge arrangements for the ceremonies at the chpltol, in which he ,.riT. t . , o apprised tho senntor.of bis .request to tno loenl-committee, Mr. uaruing rc quested that Congress not participate .nnd the committee not expend any funds Whatever in connection Willi tnu inauguration. House leaders expressed the view to day that plans for the outdoor Inaugural ceremony at the Canltol nrobnbly would be abandoned out of deference to the wishes of-'Mr. Harding. In the ab sence, however, of Senator Knox, chair man of thocongressjonal inaugural' com mittee, the Question of proceeding Im mediately with tho erection of stands capable of seating 10,000 persons was left in doubt. Some members of the committee said that Inasmuch as the appropriation al ready had been authorized, they saw no reason why the plan should be changed, although members generally thought that the President-elect would take the oath of office in the House of Repre sentatives. ' Trueks today were still unloading lumber nt tho east sldo of the Capltol building nnd about JiOO carpenters re ported for duty. The Joint resolution providing $50,000 for erection of the stands, printing of tickets nnd police protection was ex pected to be sent today to President Wilson. 494B4miiJ hii b mi wo) mb vm a a mt i ailtljfcea Skyscraper ISsll: &jsa?3- ," J 19 TUVrUtftil I .
