OHIO AWAITS ACTION OF NEW GOVERNOR ON STATE MANAGEMENT

COLUMBUS. Ohio; Dec. 6. Whilo Goveror-elect Davis still maintains an unbroken silence regarding selection of men and women to aid him in man aging the state government during the next two years, candidates for the various offices, both active and receptive become more numerous. If the governor-elect is considering claims of the various candidates, he is keeping it strictly to himself. While this attitude of he new chier executive prevails, interest has gradually shifted to organiation of the legislature which convenes January 3. John J. Chester, of Paulding county, ranking member of the house of representatives, has called a caucus of Republican members here, Dec. 15, when a speaker, floor leader and minor officials will be agreed upon. A

caucus of senate members probably!

wil Ibe called for December 1 by Sen

ators Archer, of Caldwell, and Sparks,

of Dayton, ranking members. Two Candidates for Speaker

Two candidates for the speakership of the house already are active. They are Rupert R. Beetbam, of Harrison

county, floor leader of the last legislature, and Robert C. Dunn, of Bowl-

ing Green. Wood county. " Mr. Dunrt was an active member of the lower

house during the last session, then serving his first term. H. T. Robins.

of Chillicothe, Ross county, is under

stood to be a receptive candidate. He

was a member of the joint taxation committee during the last session and look an active part In other matters Beet ham is said to have the Inside track for the position. As the house is overwhelmingly dry it is expected that C. C. Crabbe, of London, Madison county, author of many prohibition enforcement measures which were considered during the last session, and of the Crabbe act, which finally was approved by referendum at the November election, 13 said to be the choice of the drys for floor leader. It is reported they prefer him for that position in preference to the speakership, contending he can be of more service to them on the floor than in he chair. Mr. Crabbe also is considered an organization Republican and it is believed he will be acceptable to Governor-elect Davis. He was one of the new executive's most ardent supporters during the campaign and this fact is said to have had much influence in Mr. Davis's fa vor in the rural dry sections. Mr. Crabbe, however, is remaining silent, and may have something else in view other than the wishes of the dry leaders. Adjutant General First. The first appointment to be made by Mr. Davis if he follows custom, Vill be a new adjutant general. At present there are three candidates Colonel George Florence, of Circle ville, and Majors F. W. Marcolin and L. J. Linn, of Cleveland. The position normally pays ?3.600 a year, but still carries the war time salary of $6,OC0.

Colonel Florence is a Rainbow division man, having served with the 166th infantry. He is an old time National Guard officer and at present is commapder of the Fourth Ohio infantry. Major Marcolin served with a Buckeye division throughout the war. A private in 1914, he returned from the Mexican border a first lieutenant. He was a captain when the 145 infantry landed in France and a major after the Meuse-Argonne offensive. He now is battalion commander af the Third regiment, national guard. Major Linn, a captain at the outbreak of the war, was promoted to major before arriving in Franoe where he served with the 145 infantry until after the Meuse-Argonne offensive. Then he was transferred to the Twenty-seventh (New York) division. He has been associated -rith the national guard since 1908. Three Women Candidates.

member of the board of motion picture ;

rice 6em more disposed to sell enough of their products to liquidate their obligations In a more orderly manner than they have in the past.
