NEW EXECUTIVE GETS DOWN TO WORK QUICKLY Task of Passing Out Fifty Thousand Jobs Is First . Big Worry. WHITE HOUSE GATE OPEN WASHINGTON. March s.—The Harding Administration today formally shouldered the burden of government. President Harding settled down for work at his desk in the executive office adjoining the White House. One big job facing him was that of passing out jobs, some 50,000 of which wili ultimate- 1 ly be filled from a list of applicants several times as large. But only a few of the most important received attention today. The White House, with its gates open for the first time since war was declared, presented an old-time picture. Hundreds roamed over the lawn and through the corridors. Harding's first conference was with Secretary of Agriculture Wallace. Later he talked with Herbert Hoover, Secretary of Commerce. Because of his heavy duties the President was unable to attend the funeral services of Champ Clark at the Capitol. 'TJarding’s first dictation was given to : Miss Eva B. Uhl and Miss Coranella Mat- | tern, who will be his personal stenographers at the White House. The use of i women stenographers is an innovation, former Presidents having employed men. NEW CABINET TAKES OFFICE. The Cabinet was inducted into service today, each member taking oath of ; office at the department of wbicn he is ■ head, in the presence of the retiring Cabinet members. The most formidable tasks facing the new administration must be handled by Secretary of State Hughes, Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon, Secretary of the Navy Edwin Denby and Secretary of War John W. Weeks. Hughes must execute Harding's policy ! in defining future international relations or plans for anew association of nations. Harding , in his inaugural address, j turned his back on the league of Na- I tions. Peace with Germany is to be j made by passages of the Knox resolution, according to the assumption here, with immediate withdrawal of the American troops from Germany. Hughes also must take up the mandate controversy with allied powers. Involving the American contention for the “open door” in former enemy territories. Hughes now has on his desk replies from the League of Nations council and the British government to the American protests against the Japanese mandate over Yap and the Franco-British oil j agreement in Mesopotamia. Hughes' two next important tasks are settlement of j the Japanese protest against the Call- j fornla anti-Japanese land laws and ad- j Justment of the situation in Mexico. To Mellon falls the task of settling the j question of the allied debts of SIO.OOO.f'OO,- j 000 and executing the new revenue policy to be framed by Congress. Denby must formulate- the x American naval policy toward world disarmament and decide the I question of the superiority of the battle- j ship or the airplane. Secretary of War Weeks’ problems are expected to be mostly internal ones of army reorganization. LONDON AMBASSADOR SOON TO BE NAMED. One of the first diplomatic appointments to be announced by the Whltehovtse is expected to be that of Ambassador to Great Britain. Ambassador Pavi3 is 6ooa to sail for home, leaving American representation in the care of a charge d’affaires. President Harding is understood to have a number of men under consideration for this post, including Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, and George Harvey. Karding expected to consult Cabinet members further today regarding assistant secretaryships of the various departments. Theodore Roosevelt already has been named Assistant Secretary of the Navy. Ex-Congresstnan W. H. Miller, Delaware, Is mentioned as a possible assistant Secretary of War. He saw service in France and was active in organizing the American Legion. Henry P. Fletcher, former ambassador to Mexico, has been chosen under Secretary of State, but there are threa assistant secretaryships to be filled. Two vacancies on the Interstate Commerce Commission, the entire seven places on the Shipping Board, five on the Federal Reserve Board, three on the United States Tariff Commission, two on the Federal Trade Commission, four on the Federal Farm Loan Board and several on the Railway Labor Board are to,be filled tn the near future. J. J. Each, defeated for re-election to Congress tmiu Wisconsin last November, will be offered a place on the Interstate Commerce Commission. Howard nington, Columbus, Ohio, may be offered the other post vacant. Judsou C. Welliver, Journalist, who was associated with Harding during the campaign, is expected to be offered a position on either the Federal Trade Commission or the Tariff Commission. Ex-Senator George Chamberlain, Oregon, a Democrat, is certain to receive a minority appointment to the Shipping Board.

OFFICE-SEEKERS SIZING UP JO/fS AT POST OFFICE Those Politically Hungry for 8 Years Hope Soon to Break Fast. Long lines of politically hungry Republicans, after an absence ofc eight long, lean years from Uncle Sam’s pie counter, are straggling through the Federal building with the light of greed and conquest in their eyes. They seem to feel that the inaugura- i tion of a Republican President at Wash- l lngton gives them full possession of the big building, and there is no doubt that most of them are prospective candidates for some job ranging from janitor to United States district attorney, and their visits are largely in the nature of pre- j liminnry scouting trips. Among the fatter Jobs on which the “faithful” are casting their eyes were those of United States district attorney, now held by Frederick Van Nuys; United States marshal, now held by Mark Storen; William L. Elder's position as collector of internal revenue, and, last, but net least, the. postmastership now ueid by Robert E. Springsteen. ■ A number of these terms still have from one to three years to run, but there is a general feeling among both Democrats and Republicans that the distributers of Federal plums at Washington will lose no tjme In calling for resignations of Democrats now in office, regardless of any trivial matters such as the fact that a term is unexpired. These resignations will not be hard to obtain, for most of the office holders are very willing to let go the reins. For Instance, William L. Elder has been trying _for a long time to get out of the collector’s Job and will really welcome the appointment, of a successor. Mark Storen will make-no effort to hold his poaUlon as marshal until the end of his term if Washington wants to put a Republican in kts idace, and it is well known that Frederick Van Nuys will make no effort to till odt h)s unexpired term when Attorney General Daugherty ond the powers that be decide which of the many candidates for his job tbey will appoint. By executive order Issued by ex-Presi-dent Wilson the postmastersh p was made a life Job, subject to good behavior, but already a wall has gone up that no such Important place should be permitted to remain in the hands of a Democrat, and there seems to be little doubt but that President Harding will Issue an order on his own hook within the near future throwing all the big postofflee Jobs open to political appointments. This of course will mean that Mr. Springsteen will be replaced. t Mr. Van Nuys fully expects to be reunoved just as soon as the politicians can clde upon his successor, and tn expectation of this he is arranging his work so that it con be turned over in as short a time as possible to his successor. It is well known he has no desire to stay on the job against the wishes ifc the new administration.

weren’t going to let me run In this j primary because I am not a Repub- ! lioan, bnt am a Democrat,’’ said Mr Shank. “Well, let me tell you and tell the boy wonder something; 1 was more of a Republican than he and the rest , of his gang In this last election. X did make some speeches for Jim Watson and that is more than they can say." Commenting further on his old-time j rival, Mr. Jewett. Mr. Shank remarked:: “I’d hate to have any ope say as T walked down the street: ‘There goe* Lew Shank who stole an election.' " SAYS HIS ILIV’ESS CAUSED REJOICING. He said there was a time last year j when he did not believe he would become a candidate this year because he was very ill from appendicitis. "Do you know,” he said, “there were some of the fellows who have been running the | city government around* here who were tip In Chicago 8 1 the time and they heard about me being sick. They were so tickled when they heard that I might die that they all got drunk and staged j a parade in celebration. But I’ll tell them and you, I felt better than I do now." Switching to Mr. Howe, Mr. Shank declared that his rival was going to find out that being mayor of Indianapolis “is not a school teacher’s joh. It takes more ( j than 'otany to run ludianapolls." j He said he did not want to say any- ! thing bad about Mr. Howe. "I think the | only thing I've said about him is that he Is a professor, and he's sent me word asking me if I won’t please stop that; that he’s no a professor any more.” TALKS OF FINANCES. ■Mayor Jewett’s famous purchase for $175,000 of the garbage reduction plant, ; whteh was assessed for taxation nt $15,000, was recalled in connection with j the present administration's extravagance, i He said he understands the Jewett re gitne, which spent more than $8,000,000 last year, plans to get 'away with sll,this year. The fact that most of Mr. Howe’s lni terests are In Kokomo, where he has large industrial holdings, was pointed out. “If I'm mayor I won’t have to send to Noblesvllle for a building commissioner, to Chicago for a fire alarm expert and to the Democratic pnrty for a police chief. I'll run Indianapolis for Indianapolis peoply. “I believe in law enforcement, but I don’t believe that it is right to send seven policemen out there In Haughvllle to arrest one poor old woman with a half pint of whisky on .her while the burglars and thieves run wild downtown. I don’t believe It Is right for five policemen and three police women to sit in a picture theater and let robbers take SBOO out of a safe not three doors away. Linton A. Cox spoke briefly In behalf of Mr. Robison, following Mr. Shank. Other candidates W'ho spoke were J. Herbert Hartman and Delbert O. Wilmeth, tor city Judge; J. E. Tyler and John Wesley Uhodehamei, for city clerk; Dr. A. H. Todd, Joseph Asbury and I. L. | Bramlett for city councllmen.

SENATE PASSES FRANCHISE BILL Surrender of Contracts Now Up to Governor. The question whether public utilities in Indiana which have not done so already may surrender their franchises and come under control of the public service commission Is now before Governor Warren T. McCray for decision. The Senate passed the House bill extending the time for utilities to abrogate their contracts with municipalities to July, 1923, by a vote of 35 to 10 yesterday afternoon. The measuro is said to have the backing of the Indianaoplis Street Railway Company, which, when the commission law was originally passed, did not see fit “to surrender its franchisa. It was said ; the Citizens Gas Company, which has a 1 petition for 90-oent gas pending, also : wishes to surrender Us franchise. The bill does not carry an emergency' clause, and for this reason will not become effective for several months. The bill was supported by Senator Joseph Henley, Bloomington, who it necessary to save the utilities from financial ruin. He said about sixty ptillties will be affected and that they are fighting for their lives. Senator Winfield Miller, Indianapolis, objected to the bill on the ground that the utilities "are trying to get out from under their contracts.” “The surrendering of franchises will j cost the city of Indianapolis about $125,000 a year,” Senator Robert L. Moorhead, Indianapolis, declared. ! “This is simply an attempt to violate the law of contract.” said Senator William E. English, Indianapolis. “There is not an official In the city government who wants this bill."
