Abram |. Elkus Will Get Am
bassadOrship il Resigna-
tiOn Is Accepted.

WAsHINoToN. April !. Henry Nor
genthsu. American Ambassador 10 Tur-
key. has rendered his resignation to
Secretary Of State Lansing. II the res
ignation IL accepted Abram T. Eikus of
New York will be appointed TO the
Turkish mission.
President Wilson tomorrow morning.
He desires to remain in the United States
In order to put his shoulder to the wheel
with his colleagues of the 1912 cam
paign to secure the reelection OF Mr..
Wilson. Uncertainty exists as to the
decision which the President will reach
upon the resignation. because IL Is said
that a change OF diplomatic representa-
ttves la Constantinople at this time
might not be without embarrassments.
The matter will be threshed out at to-
morrow's conference. Mr. Morgenthau
said tonight that his present intention
Is to return to Turkey about May q.
Reports Of Mr.. Morgenthau's resigna-
ton have been appearing from time ia
time since hiarcn, 1914. when 1t was said
at Washington chat he would exchange
his post as Ambassador for the chair
manship OF tlis board Of control OF the
New York Federal Reserve Bank. II
was understood at that time that Ira
Nelson Morris of Chicago had beer
picked az his successor TO Turkey. and
that the change was contemplated be-
cause OF Mr.. Morgenthau's known desire
to obtain the financial position.
Mr.. Morgenthau helped President Will
son in his first campaign for the Presi'
dency as chairman OF the finance com
mittee OF the Democratic National Com
mittee His friendship for the President
IL widely known. A number OF Demo
Gratis consider that he can be Of ines
timable assistance in the coming cam
paign because of his influence as well a
his business ability. 1t also has beer
said that there Is another reason for hi
desire to leave the foreign diplomatic
field. A number OF leading citizens hav'
expressed the belief that he would be
LOGICAL candidate for the Office OF Mayor
of New York on the fusion ticket at thu
next election.
