HAYS RIVAL
OF TOBIAS HERT
Two Politicians Are Now in
Limelight.
BOTH SEEK POSTOFFICE JOB

Ini- Piihtlnhed by Amniement.)
WASHINGTON. Jan. 12. (Special.)
The two men who are serious prob
abilities for postmaster-general are
Will Ilnvs And Tobias Hert. Both
wrnnerlv would be classified as polit
leal appointees. Will Hays is fairly
well known to the public through n:s
pesition as national chairman of the
republican party.
Tobias Hert Is a Kentucky business
man. formerly of Indiana, who njade
a fortune In the creosoted wood busi
ness during the last eight years. Hert
Mas been the presiding genius of the
republican party organization in Ken
tucky. Four years ago, during the
Hughes campaign. Hert was in charge
f the Chicago headquarters of the
republican party and this year he
pent three months in the New Tork
lieadquarters helping Chairman Hays.
Hert" Entirely Capable.
It is these political services, or
course, that mark Hert out as a pos
sibility for postmaster-general. This
ought not to be said without saying
tbat Hert is entirely capable for the
Job He has all the business and
other qualifications for filling It welL
ft it comes to a showdown between
Hays and Hert some interesting con
siderations will arise. Hays, although
riot experienced In business. Is recog
nized by everyone as extremely well
qualified for just this kind of work.
Some of the more toughened poli
ticians occasionally speak of Hays a
little lightly as a T. M. C. A. youth,
or a "rah-rah" boy, but the truth is
he is a growing man with a sense of
value, for time and vitality, who
does not drink nor smoke, nor flood
his carburetor with midnight suppers,
nor otherwise spill his energies any
more than he can avoid in the frult
lessness of what goes by the name of
"social diversion."
Hays Knerjsr KenvrPkable.
Hays has a genius for organization
and almost abnormal energy in car
rying things out. In point of adapta
bility to this partlclar job. there is
not much to choose between Hays
and Hert. From the point of view of
politics Hays has a little the better
of It. He is the original head of the
republican party national organiza
tion. To leave him out and take in
another politician of less political
rank, so to speak, would call for a
good deal of explanation to the party
workers.
On the other hand. Will Hays prob
ably is a little less eager for a cab
inet honor than Hert. Hays Is a
young man, barely 40, without any
considerable fortune, and with his
private career ahead of him. Be
tween filling an unremunerative post
of honor for the next four years and
making a sturt toward achieving a
career, and an established position in
the world of private business. Will
Hays might well hesitate.
Tobias Hert. on the other hand, has
his private career behind him. He Is
56. He has made a fortune, and logi
cally might be expected to care a good
deal for official honors. There has
been some talk of solving the diffi
culty by giving the postmaster-general
office to Hays, and letting Hert
have either the war department or
the commerce department.
The trouble with that Is that there
is reason for presuming that Hard'
ing has other men in mind for these
two posts. Postmaster-general is the
only post for which, under all the
conditions, Hert has any sort of com
pelling likelihood. The difficulty
might conceivably end with Hays in a
different post. It might conceivably
end with one of the two not in the
cabinet. I suspect that not as many
politicians are going to be In the
cabinet as Is generally predicted.
Folltlriitna (o ; 4 Places.
Nearly all predictions include the
assertion that the politicians will get
four places. The politicians named
are Harry M Daugherty. Will Hays.
Tobias Hert and John W. Weeks. As
the situation lies, taking ail the con
ditions Into account. It is rather
doubtful whether all four of these
politicians will ultimately land In the
cabinet. It is unfair to Weeks, by
the way, to class his standing as
purely political. He has had a career
as a banker, and for many years he
represented Massachusetts in the
house and senate. He worked hard.
He mastered the tasks that came to
him on the banking committee and
the postoffice committee, and was a
thorouKhlv creditable member.
Everybody knows that Harding
both likes Weeks for his personality.
and approves him for his ability. One
handicap to Weeks i the fact that
Harding looks upon Vice-president
Coolldge as a member of his cabinet.
Looked at in that way. Massachu
setts already has a cabinet member,
eo to speak. It is occasionally said
that the Coolldge complication af
fects the Weeks situation.
Harding's suggestion, advised the
the ceremonies to the portico would
undoubtedly be satisfactory. The
committee was called tomorrow to
take formal action.
Subject to further communication
with the president-elect and surges
tions by the committee. Senator Knox
said that plans for a great reviewing
stand on the capitol plaza would not
be revived.
The congressional committee, Sena
tor Knox said, pjobably will arrange
for a railed enclosure only on the
capitol portico so that crowds might
see the president-elect take the oath
and deliver his address.
If the weather should be inclement
Senator Knox said the ceremonies
would be transferred to the senate
chamber.
Local committees appointed to ar

PORCH INAUGURAL LIKELY
H'otrt;r:ued l-om First Vaire.)
,lth the cabinet problem was aroused
here by the retirement today of A. W.
Mellon of Pittsburg from the direct
orate of the Pennsylvania railway.
Mr. Mellon, who has been Indorsed
for secretary of the treasury by Sen
ator Penrose, conferred with Mr. Har
ding last week.
It was assumed that another fea
ture of the cabinet question was dis
cussed by Mr. Harding today with
William Boyce Thompson of New
York, friend of the head of the re
publican national committee, Mr.
Hays.
SIMPLICITY STILL ACRl)
Return to Jefferson-Jackson Plan.
However, I'nllkely.
WASHINGTON. Jan. II Cere
monies at the inauguration of President-elect
Harding may not quite re
turn to the simplicity of Jefferson
and Jackson, even though the parade
an dball be abandoned
Senator Knox of Pennsylvania,
chaln.ian of the Joint congressional
inaugural committee, today received
from Mr. Harding a telegram suggest
ing that the actual Inaugural cere
mony be held on the east portico of
the capitoL Mr. Knox' committee
had submitted for the president-elect's
approval a plan for holding these cere
monies in the senate.
Chairman Knox, on receiving Mr.
tee. in a statement tonight announced
that his committee would cease to
function at once with the exception of
the executive, financial and auditing
committees and the office of the sec
retary, which will have charge of
winding up the affairs of the organi
zation, when they, too. will be dis
banded. Senator Harding's wishes were ex
pressed in the fouowlng telegram to
Senator Knox: "I am deeply gratified
to your committee fcr its action in ar
ranging for the simplest possible pro
gramme for the inauguration.
"It Is wholly pleasing to me to take
the oath In the senate chamber If such
is the decision of your committee.
However. I am not unaware of a nat
ural and becoming popular Interest
in a president-elect assuming his of
ficial obligations and I would gladly
have the simple ceremony on the
porch of the capitol. weather per
mitting, providing it can be arranged
amid such facilities, without special
construction.
"I do not forget that during the
late campaign I spoke to the people
from the front porch of my home and
they were courteous enough to stand
and hear me amid accommodations
less comfortable than the capitol
steps and plaza afford.
"If this seems impractical to your
committee, it deserves no further
consideration. Abandonment of pub
lic expenditure and the end of all
individual outlay ha-e put an end to
my concern, and the mere detail of
oath-taking which your committee
deems best will meet my ready as
sent." Changes in the plans for the in
auguration of President-elect Hard
ing will not interfere with the in
tention of President Wilson to ac
company Mr. Harding it the capitol,
where the latter will take the oath
of office, it was learned today. Mr.
Wilson thus will make his fist ap
pearance at the capital In more than
a year and a half and also his last
appearance as president of the United
States.
President Wilson, it was learned
today, plans to leave the White House
for the home here which he recently
purchased, March 3. the day preced
ing his retirement from office.
The ancient dispute as to whether
Jefferson rode horseback to take his
oath of office, or walked to the capi
tol, is revived by the Dlans for sim
plicity in the coming ceremony.
One writer who gives his authority
as "an English traveler." says Jeffer
son rode horseback and tied up his
horse near the site of the Congres
sional library. Another writer, how
ever, denouncing the horseback story
as a myth, declared Jefferson Intend
ed to ride to the capitol In state, with
a coach and four, but his coachman
failed to get the horses on time and
Jefferson walked from his lodgings,
100 yards from the capitol.
PARIS. Jan. 12. (By the Associated
Press.) The ministry of Premier Ley
gues was defeated today. Its fat
came when its opponents refused to
grant it confidence for a week or ten
days without a discussion of Its poll
cies until after the meeting of the
premier with Premier Lloyd George
and the Italian foreign minister. Count
Sforza. January 19, to discuss out
standing questions, including German
disarmament and reparations. The
vote. 463 to 125, was the largest bal
lot cast against a French government
since the foundation of the third re
public. Immediately Premier Leygues
handed President Millerand the resig
nation of his ministry.
The vote came as the culmination of
lobby maneuvers which began after
the Geneva conference of the league
of nations and the secession from the
governmental supporters' ranks of the
national bloc, which insisted that the
premier accept discussion of the ques
tions and take the chamber's advice
and act upon its suggestions.
Confidence Vote Asked.
Deputy Landes Deyrls, the first
speaker, asked immediate discussion
of his interpellation.
M. Leygues, in asking a postpone
ment, said the time was too short to
dispose of all interpellations. He said
it was a question of confidence and
that he would stand or fall with it.
Deputy Bonnevay, leader of the na
tional bloc, then made an unexpected
announcement, saying that the repub
lican majority could no longer grant
confidence in the government in a
blind manner and that the premier
must explain. The cabinet members
seemed stunned as the chamber, in an
uproar, demanded an immediate vote
Opponents of the government used
blue tickets and Its supporters used
white.
A shower of blue ballots filled the
air. There was no doubt the govern
ment was doomed, but great surprise
was expressed when the vote was an
nounced. Speculation is rife on the formation
of a new cabinet. There are two
well-outlined opinions, the first being
that the national bloc will assume
power.
All-star Cabinet Discussed.
The national bloc is composed of
312 solid vote's and resulted from ex
Premier Clemenceau's programme
against the extremists in the Novem
ber, 1919, elections. The bloc con
sists mostly of moderate representa
tions with a sprinkling of radicals and
also a few royalist deputies. Their
programme is integral enforcement of
the Versailles treaty.
On the other hand, many deputies
are sanguine that the date of the "all
star cabinet" is at hand, with ex
President Poincare and ex-Premiers
Vivanl, Barthou and Briand in the
portfolios of finance, foreign affairs,
interior and war. Such a cabinet poli
ticians have been discussing since the
retirement of Clemenceau.

occupied the city- council for a long
time yesterday. The city commis
sioners recently agreed to purchase
from the Willamette university two
lots of land in the vicinity of Fiftieth
street and Fifty-seventh street South
east, aggregating 15 acres, to be
known as Woodstock park.
The purchase price agreed upon
was 113,593. Then the city decided
that it wanted a sewer system in the
ground and that it wanted the unl
versity to pay for it The technical
basis for the city's contention was
that all land purchased by the city
must be free from encumbrances and
they reasoned that the lack Of a
sewer was an encumbrance. A F.
Flegel Sr. appeared before the coun
cil representing the univertity yes
terday and argued against the com
missioners' reasoning. The matter
was referred to Commissioner Pier
for recommendation. The sewer
would cost approximately $6200.

SPOKANE. Wash.. Jan. 12. With a
suggestion that part of the 1410,500
loss believed to have been suffered
by James F. Callahan, wealthy Wal
lace (Idaho) mining man. in his deal
lngs with the brokerage firm of Mil
holland & Hough of this city may be
recovered by him from assets of the
firm, came another suggestion today
that Mr. Callahan's losses may be
even greater than that figure.
Mr. Callahan's attorney, Walter
Hanson of Wallace, reported after an
examination into the firm's affairs
today that tliere might be some sal
vage. At the same time Mr. Callahan
announced that some of the checks
with which he had paid J106,5fl0 all
mony Into the United States court at
Coeur d'Alene. Idaho, for hie divorced
wife, had been returned to him as
worthless.
This. Mr. Callahan said, was be
cause checks given him by Hllholland
& Hough were of no value, and he
believed that others might be re
turned for the same reason.
In addition, he declared, he is in
doubt as to the status of a note for
$6000 which he said he had signed for
Milholland. One such note is in a
Spokane bank, he stated, with an
unpaid balance of $5500.
Whether or not a receivership will
be asked for the brokerage firm was
not announced today. John B. Mil
holland, one of the members of the
firm, is declared by th authorities
to have shot himself Sunday night
when they called at his home to ar
rest him. The other, Jay E. Hough,
is held in the county jail here on a
charge of embezzlement in default of
$20,000 bonds.
"I want to stay at the little old
cabin in the hills." Callahan eaid to
day on his plans for the future. "1
want to get away from everybody
and everything."
Late today Mr. Callahan visited the
county jail where Jay Hough is be

hands through the cell bars.
"You're not so bad as you look
