Faced with a suddenly swelling number of high posts already un- -tenanted or about to become vacant ‘the president has dozens of names be- fort him, Others We were placed upon his desk. Their sifting will require weéks and perhaps aionths, Talk centered principally in the capital upon a successor to Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes of the su- preme court who resigned Tuesday. Within the white house there was much discussion of a successor to Am- ‘bassador Dawes in London and at the Geneva conference; of take Ambassador Forbes’ BS someone place ‘Toyko; of a follower for Governor ‘Theodore Roosevelt in Porto Rico; of @ new member of the radio commis- sion.

The president hopes to have them chosen by the time congress approves the plan. . New names constantly entered the talk today of a successor to Justice Holmes. One was that of Federal Judge Curtis Dwight Wilbur, former secretary of the navy, brother of Sec- i aaly u ER ee s a rE F lopped off the county budget after |faxpevers had made their wishes ‘known at @ county meeting. It also was that a county-wide meeting of school district officials be called before teachers are employed for the next school year, to arrive at @ uniform rate of pay for this service. The idea was approved, he said. $100,000 Cut in Walsh Garnett said the $100,000 cut was in addition to savings to be made by reducing salaries of county employes which the commissioners were to make at their first meeting in Jan- uary.. From Pembina county, according to Garnett, a complete report is not yet available, but present information is that a cut of $70,000 has been made and suggested that school district together and “compare and equal the salaries of teachers with a mimi- mum of $60 per month. By inference, the $60 figure would be a standard salary. The retary Wilbur of the interior depart- |8TOU! ment, end now upon the circuit bench in California. There was equally prominent spec- ulation upon Attorney General Mitch- ell, the Democratic member of the president's cabinet; Newton D.

Fletcher Is Mentioned Henry P. Fletcher, former chairman of the tariff commission and before ‘that ambassador to Italy, often is mentioned as a successor to Dawes at the Court of St. James. Others sug- gested are Frederick W. Peck, Repub- lican national committeeman from Rhode Island; and William Butler of Massachusetts, former chairman of ‘the Republican national committee. Administration officials have been endeavoring to induce Ambassador Forbes to remain in his Tokyo post, now rendered doubly important by the Manchurian difficulties. James D.

D., Jan. 13.—(®)—Ap- Proval of an increase of one cent a Gallon in the state gasoline tax, a question to be voted upon at the March 16 primary election, would mean a shifting of the tax burden from property, Gov. George F. Shafer told the annual convention of the North Dakota County Commissioners’ association Tuesday. At the same time, Governor Shafer continued, the increased revenue would make it possible to continue highway construction work, with the greater part of the cost borne by heaviest users of the state's high- ways. | Governor Shafer said he was not ‘urging the commissioners to support the increasd tax, unless they saw fit. Following his address, Frank Heimes, | Valley City, president, said he believed the association would support the Proposal, if for no other reason than 8. relieve the tax burden on prop- iy. Citing figures to show the present. three-cent tax already has reduced taxes on real and personal property, Governor Shafer said “the additional one cent would act as a replacement, and not a supplementary tax.” “If the people approve the four- cent tax,” he continued, “it will mean there will be an additional revenue derived during the coming year from motor traffic of $650,000, out of which STAINLESS Same formula .. same price.
