Quit Over Bureau Ttow
The reslimatlon of Mr. Dover. U
vraa Indicated, could be regarded ns
tho culmination of his controversy
with David H. Blair, commissioner
of internal rovenue, which has raged
for Koveral months over tho proposed
reorganluit'lon of tho Internal revenue
bureau.
According to tho accepted opinion
In adminiwt ration circles, Mr. Dover
was named assistant secrotary of the1
troasury by President Harding lost
December to reorganise tho customs
service and tho revenue bureau. Re
organization of tho customs service
was affected by Mr. Dover early In
tho year, but his plan for changes In
tho personnel of tho revenue bureau
ran counter to tho administrative
leas of Commissioner Blair nnd Sec-
rotary Mellon. Friction ofliclally des
cribed "as disagreement ns to policy"
waxed warmer with tho occurrence
of a number of Incidents including
the removal of Dover appointees and
tho issuance of on order by Mr. Blair
centralizing all discussion of appoint
ionts in tho offices of commissioner
and the apopintment division.
Mollon's Aillon ijtjt Ntrnw
This reached Its height recently
when C. C. Childs of Ohio and A. D.
Sumner of "Washington, supervisor of
Internal rovenue collectors, and dep
uty commissioner In chargo of ac
counts, respectively, wero dismissed
through tho consolidation of their of
fices by Mr. Mellon upon recommen
dation of tho tax simplification board
and Charles R. Nnsh of Minneapolis
was selected as deputy commissioner
of accounts nnd collections.
In some ofllclal quarters the view
was advanced 'that President Harding
wan witholding action on the resigna
tion of Mr. Dover pending tho assign
ment of tho assistant secretary to a
new post In tho government, -while
in other olhclal circles tho opinion
was advanced that tho president wn
not entirely pleased with Mr. Dover s
methods of procedure tn connection
with tho revenuo bureau but some
tlmo would elapse before word would
ho forthcoming from tho White
llouso on tho case.
The treasury department liaa been
seo'.hlng with friction for several
tuontlui. Mr. Iiover wanted to clean
honso in a thorough going mn nner
nnd throw out what ho termed the
incompetent appointees or llio iemu
cratic administration. Ho wns par
ticularly anxious to do thin on tho in
