President Wilson Requests His APP

Wilmington. n. c.. April 2o,-Advices
from Washington stated that Congress
man Goodwin, at the request of Presi-
dent Wilson, had decided to recommend
that II. Mel. Green be appointed post
master at Wilmington, and with this
assurance Mr. Green may be considered
as good az in the much coveted posi-
ton now.
Tho next development will be the
nomination of Mr.. Green by the Presi-
dent, followed by the sending of his
name TO the Senate for confirmation,
and at this stage in the matter there
is no doubt about the confirmation be-
ing made.
The struggle for the attractive lob
has been hard fought at Washington.
and abundant ammunition was con-
stantly being sent to that place from
Wilmington. The party managers here
very frankly opposed Mr.. Green and
would have preferred any one of sew
eral others. but the President evidently
made up his mind early in the fight
and refused to change it.
Mr.. Green Is known personally to a
large portion of the city's population,
and it is doubtful If there Is Il more
popular man i'll the county. He was
county treasurer for some fourteen
years until December ! of last year,
and 1t was while occupying this Office
that he became so we'll known through
out the county. Mr. Green is sue
cessfuI man and is we'll known in the
local business world as well as political
circles. He is "A brother-in-l of DR..
f.. a Alderman. president of the Uni
vcrsity of Virginia.
The term of Thomas II. Wallace as
postmaster has already expired, and
it is expected that unless something
unforeseen occurs that Mr.. Green will
assume the duties OF the office within

doubtedly be carried out.
