that she spent it for some chari-

he may be fully in her confidence.

ON mainland TRIP
Has Leave Of Absence
For Period OF Two
Months

Secretary Atkinson left for the main
land in the China this morning on a
two-months' leave of absence. While
he stated that he was going to San
Francisco. Vancouver and possibly"
East. and would be absent three weeks
or possibly" longer. il may well be
considered a furegOne conclusion that
the Secretary will st.ike New York on
his travels. Ia order to look up the
job which was offered him some time
ago. He has been intending to make
such n trip for some time past. and
would. as a matter Of fact. probably
have started some time since had II
not been for the fact that the public
ity given his intended departure some
what disturbed his plans.
During the Secretary's absence there
will be no Acting Secretary" there
being no provision by law for such an
appointment. Anyhow, the Secretary
duties have for some time past ap.
peared to be OF more or less nominal
order. such rs can be easily attended
to by his staff
