Secretary Knox today made public
executive order 1884 of President Taft,
which establishes for the state depart
ment services tests identical with those
already in force for consular aspirants.
Secretary Knox on November 26
wrote to President Taft as follows:
sit seems particularly desirable that
in the interest Of a more efficient for
eign personnel an effort should be
made to test more fully the qualifica-
lions of young men DESTROYS of enter
ING the diplomatic service as secre-
taries and to provide regulations which
shall tend to encourage such de-
gree of efficiency on the part of secre-
taries as may justify their promotion
to the grade of minister. 1t is also OF
the highest Importance that there
should be a closer relationship between
the two branches OF the foreign ser
vice and the department of state than
has hitherto existed. .
In reply the President issued the ex-
ecutive order, which particularly pro-
vides that ian efficiency record shall
be kept of every officer in the diplo-
matte service. Initial appointments
from outside the service shall be only
TO the class of thIrd secretary of en-
bassy, second secretary of legation or
secretary of legation ut such post as
has but one secretary assigned to it.

filed by promotion from the lower

FIGHT OVER PROHIBITION
ALMOST BECOMES FATAL

Opelousas. La. Aug. 12-Foliowins
bitter factional fight here between
the prohibition forces on one side and
the anti-prohibition forces on the
other, Sheriff M. l. Swords and Felix
Dezauche, a newspaper correspondent
created considerable excitement in the
business section of-Opelousas today in
a clash that at one time threatened tc
assume serious proportions.
The sheriff is alleged to have drawn
his revolver, but the belligerents were
separated and their followers dis
persed before serious bloodshed re-
suited. The correspondent had posted
over his place of business an editorial
from a New Orleans paper which
proved displeasing to the sheriff. He
called on Dezauche for an explanation
and the clash ensued.
The prohibition forces charge that
blind tigers" are run in Opelousas, q
dry town. with the sanction of some
of the parish officials. This the Of
ficials in question strenuously deny.
