Poesident hardlng- has pa.sed
the crisis and is on the road to
recovery, according Ito a state-
ment made late today to the As-
sociated Press by Dr. Charles
Sawyer, \the President's personal
physician. Dr. Sawyer said, "Since
we have our toxin well under con-
trol I am safe in saying that we
have passed the peak-load of
trouble.. I do not wan to be too
emphatic about it, because there
is always danger of complica-
tions but I reel that the crisis is
over and that the President is
well dn the road to recovery.
Presidential Headquarters, Palace
Hotel, San Francisco, July 31.-(By
A.P.)
"Barring complications, Prcident'
Harding has reached the peak of the
crisis," Brig.-General Sawyer, the
President's physician, said late today
after the formal consultation of five
attending physicians." Dr. Sawyer
stated that Mrs. Harding was well de-1
spite the strain.{
Outlook Favorable
Three cabinet members here, 'vere
likewise greatly heartened Secretary
Worl, who, as a physician, has parr
ticipated in all the consultations, said
late in the day that there was had
been nothing desquieting. The Presi-
dent's condition, he added, is either
favorably progressive or ' stationary,
and even the latter is favorable.
Secretary Hoover, who has been
optimistic throughout althought plain-
ly disturbed last njght, said that in-
formation gien him had been very en-
couiaging. Secretary Wallace likewise
was more hopeful.
The fourth member of President
Harding's .official family, Attorney-
General Daugherty was hurrying here
from Seattle and is due to arrive to-
morrow.
Washington Notified
The two cabinet members in Wash-
ington, Secretary Hughes, and Post-
master General Nety, were informed
by long distance telephone of the
change for the better by George E.
Christian, Jr., secretary- to the Pres-
ideit, and similar messages were sent
tq other cabinet officials, Secretary
Mellon and Secretary Davis, who are
in Europe. Messages of hope for the
executive's recovery and of !felicity
from his condition were more numer-
ous today than any ,day since he was
dropped here Sunday.
San Francisco, July 31-(By A.P.)
-,"The President is better."
These four words tell the story of
a light made today by Warren G.
Harding in a room on the top floor
of the Palace Hotel where he lies ill
with bronco-pnuemonia and several
complications. They first were spok-
en early today by Brig-General
(Charles N. Sawyer, chief of tile staff
of physicians attending Mr. Harding,
and hour by hour they were passed
on by word of mouth, by telephone,
telegram, and by radio until tonight
they had reached some of the farther-
most parts of the world.
All other information coming from
the President's room during the day
appear to support this early state-
ment.\ What tonight or tomorrow may,
bring forth one physician said "no
living Dr. knows, for it was recog-
nized that the fight Mr. Harding has
made did not end today. He is ad-

$elieving that librarians in school
libraries do not devote the proper
amount of attention to science sec-

for the librarian to choose from 'a
mass of works the best reference text,
the members of the faculties of the
University have undertaken a compil-
ation of a list of science books, a bib-
liography which can be revised and
re-issued from time to time as new
publications appear.
Need for List Urgent
The list will answer a great need
in suggesting the proper books that
should be chosen. Members of the
faculties who have participated in the
inspection of high schools have ob-

TO RECEIVE LIFE ALLOWANCE
After 42 years of service, as assist-
ant to the Secretary of the University,
Miss Lucy Chapin will retire Satur-
day on allowance for life in recogni-
tion of her continued faithfulness.
During her entire 42 years in the
employ of the University Miss Chapin
has asked for leave of absence only
once. That was in the summer ofE
1914 when she received a leave of
two months in addition to her regu-
lar month's vacation. She plans to
spend some time travelling abroad in
the future.
Miss- Chapin was the Airst clerk em-
ployed in the office of the University.
She entered as assistant to the Sec-
retary but as her work was not heavy
she soon fo'und herself performing
duties for the President, TreasurerY
and Registrar.
She was born in Ann Arbor and
was a desendent of those old pion-
eers who helped found the town and
who became leaders in the civic and
social, life. It was in the parlor oft
her great grandmother, Hanna Gibbs
Clark, that St. Andrews Episcopalx
church was organized and first com-
munion was served from her own sil-
ver tankard.t
During her service Miss Chapin hasc
performed the annual duty. of issu-
ing diplomas. She checks each one,1
sees that the seal of the University
is properly affixed and that the sheep-
skins are correctly rolled and tied.
Altogether' she has handled about 40,-
000 diplomas.
At a picnic 'held at Island Lake
last Saturday by the business force
of the administration offices she was
presented with a vote of thanks by
her co-workers expressing their ap-
preciation of her loyalty and unfail-
ing service.

Presidential Headquarters, Palace
Hotel, San Francisco, July 31.-(By
A.P.).
Sec. George B. Christian made pub-
lic tonight an address President Hard-
ing was to have delivered in San Fran-
cisco this evening at the Civic audi-
torium on the accomdplishment of the
administration in the international
field.
He said the view of his administta-
tion on pending international rela-
tionship respecting the United tSates
in the permanent Court of Interna-
tional Justice was the next major
step to be taken.
Bars Russian Recognition
Two pending international ques-
tions were discussed by the chief
ecutive. With respect to one, the
recognition of Russia, he declared, "in-
ternational good faith forbids any sort
of sanction of the Bolshevist policy."
The other question concerns relations
with Mexio and in discussing it Mr.
Harding said he earnestly hoped the
American commission in Mexico.City
would achieve definite and favorable
results."
Having in the past two and a half
years, as he ,said, "strengthened
friendly relationships and done much
to promote the peace of the world,"
the United States, he maintained,
should now do 'its part to bring the
blessings of peace and happiness and
fear of war to the nations of the
world. ."The nation ought no more
need resort to force in the settlement
of their disputes than do men in this
enlightened day. I would be sensible
to duty and violate all the sentiments
of my heart and of my conditions If I
failed to urge American support of the
permanent court of international jus-
tice."
World Court a Step Toward Peace
"I do not know that such a court
will be unfailing in the avoidance of
war, but I know it is a step in the
right direction."
Pressing his view of international
achievement with a declaration that
"When the present national adminis-
tration came into the responsibilities,
world affairs were in a very difficult
posture."
The President said four main tasks
were undertaken, as follows:
First, re-establishment of peace with
the central powers, and the orderly
settlement of those important after-
war problems which directly involved
the United States.
Second, The contention and com-
motion, amid the chaos of conflicting
international interests of the just
rights of the United States and the
legitimate interest .of American cit-
izens.
Third, the creation of an interna-
tional situation so far as United
States might contribute thereto whic
would\ give the best assurance of
peace for the future; and
Fourth, pursuit of traditional Amer.
loan policies of friendly cooperation
with our sister republics of the West-
ern Hemisphere."
Lands Hughes
"Eminent and far reaching achieve-
ments must have their ultimate ap-
praisal by American public opinion,'
the executive added, "but I submit
that we bow in restrained pride and
tribute to the services of a great
secretary of State.
Mr. Harding then proceeded to the
eunciation of international achieve-
mont, taking , up first the negotia-
tions of separate treaties of peace
with the central powers, and, which
followed as a necessity of peace ne-
gotiations by his distinguished prede-
cessor, 'fostered by lofty purpose and
undying controversy, the negotiations
resulting in treaties which establish.
ed peace with those countries on at
equitable basis and at the same time
