DR. MAYO AT BEDSIDE
Crisis of Case Expected to Be
Past by This Morning, Says
Aviiile House Bulletin. '
WASHINGTON, I. C. Sept. 11.
At 2:15 this morning:, although there
had, been no further official word
on her condition since the bulletin
issued at 9 o'clock last night, Mrs.
Harding was understood to be rest
ing relatively free from pain, and
etilt holding the slight improve
ment which the bulletin said her
condition had indicated during Sun
day. Dr. Sawyer, who has been in al
inost constant attendance at Mrs.
Harding's bedside for four days and
nights, left the .White House at
10:30 o'clock tonight for a rest in
his own apartments. He remarked
on leaving that he was pleased with
the favorable symptoms of the pa
tient. At that hour she was asleep.
Woman Friend leaTts.
Mrs. Edward B. McLean, wife of
the publisher of the Washington
Post, an intimate friend of Mrs.
Harding, who had been at the White
House since last night, also left for
her own home about 10 o'clock.
"Mrs. Harding is considerably bet
ter," she said. "That is just why
I am going, to my own home tonight.
She is quiet now and going to sleep.
I believe that there is an excellent
chance for her recovery."
Dr. Mayo- remained, at the White
House for the night with Dr. Carl
Sawyer and Dr. Boone, of the navy,
In attendance in the sick room.

WASHINGTON, D. C Sept. 10.
The condition of Mrs. Florence
Kling: Harding, wife of the pres
ident, who has been dangerously, ill
for several days, was so much im
proved tonight that decision of the
attending physicians as to the ne
cessity for a surgical operation has
been deferred until tomorrow morn
ing. General C. E. Sawyer, the White
House physician, made . the an
nouncement of the favorable turn
In Mrs. , Harding's critical illness
shortly after 9 o'clock tonight.
The decision to postpone a sur
gical operation which for a time
today was believed to be inevitable
was reached at a consultation par
ticipated in by Dr. Sawyer, his son.
Dr. Carl Sawyer, Dr. Charles E.
Mayo, of Rochester. Minn., who ar
rived at the White House this morn
ing, and Dr. John Finney, of Balti
more. Bulletin la Issued.
At 9:05 P. M., immediately after
the consultation, Dr. Sawyer issued
the following bulletin:
"Mrs. Harding's condition tonight
is as follows:
"Temperature, 100.5.
"Pulse, 116.
"Respiration, 36.
"She has had a fairly comfortable
day, with such indications of a
slight improvement that the deci
sion relative to surgical relief was
postponed until Monday morning.
"C. E. SAWYER, M. X."
While the bulletin is the first
lu-.ictuic l"j nttve come irum ,
the White House bedside since Fri-
day, when Mrs. Harding became des-
pei-ately ill with acute congestion
of the kidneys, it was stated unof
ficially that the distinguished pa
tient is not yet out of danger. The
immediate apprehension . has beeu
greatly relieved and the physicians
cow hold out much hope for Mrs.
Harding's recovery if there is no
relapse. By tomorrow morning, it
was stated, the crisis may be passed.
Blood Test Made.
The consultation tonight followed
a blood test taken at the direction
of Dr. Mayo soon after he reached
the White House. Laboratory spe
cialists worked on the test until
evening, when Dr. Finney returned
from Baltimore. This test, together
with other laboratory tests made at
Dr. Mayo's direction, showed unmis
takably, it is reported, that the
toxic condition of the patient, so
threatening yesterday and last
night, had been considerably .re
lieved. Dr. Mayo reached the White
House at 10 o'clock this morning,
hastened to Washington at
the request of the president. After
examining Mrs. Harding, Dr. Mayo
made no statement for publication,
but at- 4 o'clock this afternoon it
was announced that he and Dy.
Sawyer were waiting to consult
with Dr. John Finney, of Johns
Hopkins hospital, Baltimore, who
has been consulting specialist in the
case since Friday night, and for the
result of bipod tests- before deter
mining whether an operation would
be advisable.

Professor -to Continue Experi
ments Regarding Bending
, of Light Beams.
pHICAGO, Sept. 10. Two shafts
of light racing through a steel tube
one mile in length and a foot in
diameter is the latest test devised
for the Einstein theory of relativity
by Professor Albert A. Michelson,
noted physicist of the University of
Chicago, who has just returned from
California, where he conducted ex
tensive experiments at Mount Wil
son observatory.
Professor Michelson went to Cali
fornia last spring on invitation of
the Carnegie institution of Pitts
burg, with the object of applying
further tests to the Einstein theory,
and also to establish the actual ve
locity of light. While there he ad
vised and perfected equipment for
both classes of experiments. The
phase of the Einstein theory chal
lenged by Professor Michelson per
tains to the effect of the rotation
of the earth on a beam ef light.
Einstein has contended that the
rays of lighj. from a distant star
I undergo a noticeable deflection as
they pass near the sun. io test nis
theory, Professor Michelson, who
I startled the scientific world in 1920
by his announcement that he had
obtained the actual dimensions of
Betelgeuse and found its volume to
be 27 times greater than the sun,
told of his more recent experiments
with the Einstein doctrine.
At each of the four corners of a
square, he said, measuring a -'quarter
of a mile on each side, a mirror
was placed, from one corner a beam
of light was dispatched around one
way on the direction of the rota
tion of the earth. Simultaneously
another beam was dispatched
around the other way opposite , to
the direction 'of the earth's rotation, i
By use of a delicate instrument
Professor Michelson 'was able to
identify the beams upon their re
turn. If they returned at exactly
the same instant, the Einstein
theory would have been repudiated.
If they returned simultaneously, he
said, it would have established that
the rotation qf the earth exercises
no influence oyer the beam of light.
"We almost succeeded this sum
mer in our experiments," he said.
"Atmospheric interference was all
that prevented the complete success
of our "work. Temperature Varia
tions in. the raatintains, and , valleys
out there militated against us.
" "We proved our principle was
right and now we plan to eliminate
atmospheric interference by con
struction of a steel tube, one foot
in diameter around the entire one
mile course. By making this a
vacuum, all such interference is
eliminated. We expect to quickly
complete our experiment next sum
mer." ' -

Ralph Hayes, expressing indigna
tion. Several of the writers also
have protested to Hugh Chisholm of
London, editor-in chief, asking, for

BY CLARE SHERIDAN.
(Copyright by the New York World. Pub
lished by arrangement, all rights re
served.) LONDON. Sept 10.--(Special.) A
huge proportion of the United States
has landed in England, this summer.
Their impressions must havie varied
according to the time and place at
which they disembarked. For
tunately for me, I landed on one of
those rare days when the sun was
shining.
It was 6 o'clock in the mornin
and Plymouth sound looked just as
beautiful as any foreign port that
one has ever admired. England,
through the train, window, looked
so pretty, so carefully - tended, so
much loved. The hedges and the
gateways and the little houses with
their flowering gardens, even the
cows in trimly enclosed pastures,
looked like toys or miniature mod
els. And what an absence of waste
spaces. Every corner of land from
Plymouth to London seemed to be
long to some one. How springlike
It was, and green, and joyous. Such
was my first impression.
Home Is Visited.
Before allowing myself to get im
bedded in. the old familiar-current
pf life ih"London I went straight to
my' home, and I rejoice, as Kipling
does.Vthat
"The lot lias fallen to me
In a fair land, in a fair land.
Yea, Sussex, by the sea."
Leaping out of the car that
brought.rne I flung off my hat and
gloves and rushed up the green
sward path between the clipped yew
hedges. I found my mother In a
sunbonnet on the bowling green.
She was reading an old, faded vol
ume of Strickland's "Queens of
England." Her background was a
long, tall roW of blue delphiniums.
As I hugged her after the longest
absence I ever have made from
home I remembered that she had
her origin in New York city, from
where I had just come. ' But for
many years now she has looked out

Equal Temperature Attained Here
Only Three Times In History
of Weather Bureau.
Portland yesterday experienced
the hottest September day that has
occurred since the year 1909, the
mercury registering 91 at 3 P. M.
The city was f-irly vacated, as it
is in the best oft the summer days,
with thousands seeing the cool and
shade of the country -nd making
their own breezes by motoring.
Only three times in the history of
the weather bureau has hotter

three times September 11, 1886.;
September 9, 1S07, and September 5,
1909. On September 10 there -has
never been any higher temperature
than was recorded yesterday.
The wpather bureau said that the
warmth was precipitated ' by some
proud citizen bragging' about the
elegance of the weather during the
first of the week. There has been
almost no variation in pressure re
corded, and though the relative hu
midity was not great, 39 per cent,
the actual percentage 'of moisture
in the air is sufficient to make the
heat uncomfortable.
The weather bureau would not
venture to say whether the record
would be repeated today.
EUGENE, Or., Sept. 10. (Special.)

CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 10. (By
the Associated Press.) One hun
dred thousand Greek troops have
evacuated Smyrna nd a Turkish
civil, administration has been estab
lished there.
History is said never to have re
corded so complete a disaster as
the, Greeks have met. It is asserted
that Austria's defeat in the Capor
etto during the world war . is as
nothing compared with the debacle
of the Greeks.
PARIS', Sept. 10. The Greek
evacuation of Smyrna has been com
pleted, says a dispatch to the
Havas Agency from Athens. The
dispatch adds that M. Theotokis, the
Greek high commissioner in Smyrna,
is momentarily expected to arrive
in Athens.
V ictory Ik Celebrated.
Another dispatch to the Havas
Agency from Athens dated Sunday
says that, M. Kalogeropoulos has
-abandoned the task of forming a
new Greek cabinet and that King
Constantino has requested former
Minister of the Interior Trianta
fillakos to assume the task.
. The Turkish Nationalists ending
the two-weeks-campaign have swept
the Greeks but of Asia Minor! and
the Kemalists,' who yesterday en
tered Smyrna, took prisoners, the
remnants of the -Greek forces re
maining behind to cover the wild
flighjt of the Greek army that a
month ago held securely a large
part of western Asia .Minor and
talked of marching through Thrace
into Constantinople.
Race With Diplomat. Worn.
.The Turks ran a race with the
diplomats, their leaders say, and
won the race, for Turkish arms
settled in a few days and settled
finally, according to Angora ad
vices, the problem of how Asia
Minor is to be divided, a problem
with which diplomacy has been
struggling for three years.
Smyrna, which has been in.a state
of chaos for three days since the
Greek high commissioner took to a
warship in fear of his life, is now
a hotbed of typhus and plague and
is crowded with thousands of refu
gees without food.
Turks Take Charter.
The' allied consuls and naval con
tingents, including . the Americans,
had begun the restoration of order
as soon as they arrived but the
Turks have taken charge of Smyrna
and their first efforts have been
directed toward stamping out epi
demics and relieving distress.
Smyrna, which has been the goal
of the Nationalists, as Angora was
that of the Greeks, soon will wit
ness, according to dispatches from
Angora, the ceremonious and tri
umphant entry into the city of
Mustapha Kemal Pasha and others
of the nationalist government. The
seething ferment of Asia Minor now
seems to have been transferred to
Athens through the returned troops,
dispatches from the Greek capital
say, . and there is much talk of
Constantine's second descent from
the throne and the return of Venl
zeloa to.power
. ' Insult to Kins: .Shouted.
The Greek soldiers evacuated
from Smyrna were ordered taken
to islands in the Aegean sea, there
to be disarmed and demobilized so
as to avoid possible trouble in
Arthens, but the soldiers are reported
to have threatened the ship officers
and compelled them to steer for
Piraeus, the port of Athens, where
they disembarked and marched
through the streets shouting insults
to the. king and demanding the re
turn of Venlzelos.

Stamboul is insane for the first time

Local Colony Sees Pretty Daugh
' ter of Greece Become Bride
or Old Playmate.
A colorful Greek wedding which
brought a touch of the Levant to
Portland was held yesterday at Hi
bernian hall, 340 '.Russell street,
when Panagoula Drougas, pretty
daughter of Greece, be.came the wife
of her old playmate and sweetheart,
James Meletis, a local business man.
Archbishop Panteleimon. of Neap
olls, Palestine, who is a delegate to
the Episcopalian convention, per
formed the ceremony, assisted by
Father ' Karahaleos, head of the
Portland Greek congregation.
The distinctive feature of having
an archbishop preside over a wed
ding brought practically the entire
community of Greeks living in Port
land to the affair. An archbishop, it
is said, does not often officiate at a
wedding. However, the archbishop
consented to perform the services
yesterday because both the bride
and bridegroom came from his own
birthplace in Argos, Greece.
The entire ceremony was chanted
by both the church heads and sev
eral singers from the local church.
Flower wreaths connected to each
other covered the hfads of both
the bride and bridegroom.' These
were changed back and forth from
the bride and bridegroom and vice
versa by the archbishop as a sign
of the inseparableness and perfect
union of the two.
With the church, heads wearing
their elaborate ceremonial robe,
and the bride and bridegroom lit
erally covered with flowers and rice,
the affair was really a pageant.
At the end of the service the
friends and relatives of the couple
lined up to present their best
wishes, kiss the bride, and drop a
small contribution of money in a
platter placed before the couple.
