SENATE CONFIRMS NOMINATION OF CARTER GLASS

New Secretary of Treasury Says McAdoo's Retirement is National Misfortune. WASHINGTON, Dec 7. The nomination of Representative Carter Glass to be Secretary of the Treasury to succeed William G. McAdoo, was confirmed Friday night by the Senate without objection. . , - Glass immediately will resign from congress, in which he has served 16 years, and will take up his new duties on December 16. Mr. McAdoo will continue as Director-General of .Railroads until his successor for that position shall have been appointed. Representative Glass said today that he had every reason to believe that the future policies of the Treasury would not be different from those now being pursued except as varying circumstances may suggest. "There is no further statement that I could make at this time which would either interest or enlighten the public," said Mr. Glass. "1 would readily wish that I may succeed even approximately as well in administering the affairs of the Treasury as has the dis tinguished man whose retirement so j distresses the country. It is my judgment that his retirement is a national misfortune." FRENCH ARMY BAND CITY'S HONOR GUESTS The United States government has as its honor guests at this time an or ganization of 62 French soldier musicians, which organization is making a tour of this country, and on its j way home will fortunately pass i through Richmond. Arrangements ' have been made- for this French military band to stop off in Richmond and give an "Honor Guest Concert" at the Coliseum, on Thursday, December 12. Wayne county is peculiarly favored in being able to hear this concert. .These French soldiers were before the war first class musicians, many of them having been prizo winners in the French conservatories, and every one of the musicians have seen from three to four years in actual service. They have all been decorated by the French government for special acts of bravery, and are now incapacitated for further service by reason of their wounds. The concert should be a musical treat, but even more, it will be an opportunity for the people of Wayne county to pay a deserving tribute to the French people. The Wayne County Council of Defense heartily commends the concert to the patriotic people of this community. Respectfully, WILL W. RELLER, Chairman, Wayne County Council of Defense. HOWARD A. DILL, President, . Richmond Commercial Club. REQUISITIONS FOR SUPPLIES APPROVED Requisitions for supplies for the county offices were approved by the county commissioners at their regular meeting this morning. Boy Scouts to Usher at Red Cross Meeting All Boy Scouts are requested to be at the Coliseum Sunday evening at 7:15 o'clock to usher for the Red Cross meeting which is to be held there.

URGES CONTINUED SUPPORT OF W. S. S. STAMP CAMPAIGN J. D. Oliver, secretary of the War Savings Stamps campaign, has received the following telegram from Secretary McAdoo: "I most earnestly urge upon you that your .organization make every possible effort to the end that pledges for the purchase of war savings stamps be fulfilled before the close of the year. The government's monetary requirements were never greater nor more pressing than they are today. Expenditures for November were greater than in any similar period. These expenditures growing out of the war, must be met by borrowing from the people and their magnificent response heretofore to the government requirements makes me confident that they will not fail to continue their support to the end that all payments resulting from necessities will be promptly met. Much remains to be done. Our brave troops must be maintained and paid until their work is fully accomplished and they are returned to their homes. This is not a time for us to relax our efforts and the treasury department is making plans for larger and even more important work during the coming year. Please make effort to bring this statement before the people in your district and to urge upon them the continued holding of their war certificates, the fulfillmen of their pledges, and additional purchases as their means permit.' RULES CONCERNING FLOUR SUBSTITUTES H. W. Gilbert, Federal Food Administrator for Wayne county has received Bulletin No. 207 from the government which has reference to substitutes that are in the hands of all dealers selling flour and compulsory substitutes. It will be necessary for all those having substitutes who care to dispose of them to take up the matter with Mr. Gilber,t at the Federal, Food Administrator's office prior to December 20, between the hours of 1 and 3 p. m. In the event it is not possible for the dealer to call at the office at the time stated, he may take this matter up by. mail, and all information relative to the substitutes will besfint to him at once. Mr. Gilbert ha3 a bulletin in his office which goes into detail as to how these substitutes may be disposed of. Mr. J. E. Larger, of Indianapolis, who so successfully handled the work oh the sugar division, has taken over the handling of the substitutes. Leon Smittle Killed in Action in France Mr. and Mrs. William Boyd of South Twelfth street received notice Friday that their nephew, Leon Smittle, was killed in action in France.

(All articles for this column must not exceed 200 w ords. Contributors must sign their names, although the name will be withheld by the management at the - request of tr-d vriter. Articles having no name attached will be thrown into the waste basket.) Richmond, Ind., Dec. 7, 1918. Editor of the Palladium: We read your editorial of December 6th with regard , to the work of the Local Boards of Wayne county. Local Board No. 1 wishes to express its thanks for this article, and we feel, grateful that you think we got through with our work in creditable manner. However, we wish to explain that if it had not been for the help cf many good American Richmond citizens our showing would have been very poor. We also were fortunate in securing good clerical help, who surely deserve their part of the credit. While the Hon..Wm. Dudley Foulke was government appeal agent he gave us good advice and worked with us very faithfully. Later Walter G. Butler took up this work and when the work demanded it, he was at his post Great credit also is due to the school teachers. We take this opportunity, at a time when we feel that our work is about closed, to thank all of those who so willingly assisted us in this work, all the lawyers who composed the legal ' advisory board and who worked hard ! to assist the board in many ways, and j to the doctors who assisted us and came to our call at any time to examine the registrants. Yours sincerely, CLEMENT V. CARR, Chairman. MICHAEL W. KELLY, Secretary. DR. J. M. BULLA, Examining Physician. INDEPENDENTS LOSE TO NEW PARIS TEAM The New Paris high school first team won a game from the Richmond Independents to the tune of 21-19 at New Paris lost night. This is the first game that the Independents have played this year. The game was lost pilbly because the New Paris boys knew their own floor better than the Richmondites. The Richmond Boy Scouts' team won the curtain raiser from the New Paris second team to the tune of 2320. Harkins was the bright light of the scouts, scoring 13 of their 23 points. The game was won in the last few minutes of play when Harkins made several field goals with the score tied. Old Earlham Basket Ball Men Are Expected Back "Indications are now that a few of the old basketball men will return to Earlham this year," Ray B. Mowe, coach of athletics, said Saturday. The games this year will only be I. C. A. L. games and the first one here will be with Rose Poly on January 10. The merchant who really knows he will succeed, usually convinces the public of the fact and so compels their trade. V ir ii'1 in
