Bryan Tells Why He | Urges President to Resign Immediately NEW YORK, Nov, 13.—No enemy | could wish President Wilson any-| thing worse than that he should waste his remaining strength in a struggle with a republican senate, thus postponing promotion of world peace thru American co-operation, | William Jennings Bryan declared in an interview today. Bryan, outlining the reasons why | he believes President Wilson should resign and permit Senator Harding | to assume direction of the nation’s affairs at once, said: “The plan ts se eastly understood, and supported by arguments so un-| answerable, that it only needs to be stated to be convincing. “The constitution’ provides a way | in which Senator Harding can be called immediately to the work in-| trusted to him by an overwhelming | | majority of the people. That way I have pointed out. The president can | resign; that will make Vice President | Marshall president. Mr. Marshall can appoint Senator Harding secre- tary of state and resign.

But the people have de- creed otherwise and indorsed the Harding plan of an association of na- tions. “The president could hardly be expected to attempt to carry out the Harding idea, and it is not iikely that the republican senators would permit him to do it if he tried. “Therefore, the only progress that can be made towards such co-opera tion ts along the Harding plan with Mr, Harding himself carrying it out. “Such an offer as above suggested might well be made, even if the president were weil, in view of :the tremendous importance of the issue submitted and the supreme value of immediate action, but such an offer would seem to be the more wise be- cause nothing but a sense of duty could lead the president to risk his health and even his life in a con teat not only unnecessary, but futile, with a republican congress elected two years ago as a protest and in- dorned this year in its opposition Below, | THE SEATTLE STAR BOARD NAMED Two Pacific Coast Men; but | None From Washington " | Pres: | the Nov, 12 announced mbers of © new ap | WASHINGTON Jdent Wilson today Jappointment Of five new F ithe shipping board pointees are | Frederick I, Thompson, Alabama, | democrat, for a term of five years Joseph N 1 for a term of four year H.
