 PHOENIX, Jan. 15.-Uncertainty as to the gubernatorial situation, in the opinion of President Claridge of the senate, speaking as a private in- dividual, should not interfere with the activities of the legislature.

SUSPENSE OVER: OLD EMPLOYES

 When the first meeting of the year passed without any appointments be- ing made save those of the clerk of the board of supervisors and his assist ant, the rumors began to fly thick and fast. There were all kinds of stories afioat and out of the many various and varied tales 1t was easy for one to pay his money and take his choice. Some people with sporting blood in their veins, offered to bet that cer- tain people would not draw pay check from the county after yester- day, but there were no takers, thus giving some basis for the belief of changes. It was also hinted that a clean sweep was con- templated, but if the board or any of the members had any such idea in mind, it was not carried out.
 The appointments made yesterday comprise the following: A. Cruick shank. plaza gardener; Joe Drew, janitor of the court house; w. O. Townsend, jail mess cook: Grace NJ. Sparkes, commissioner of immigra- ton; Dr. John w. Finn, superintend- ent of public health; Dr. R. N. Looney, attending physician at coun- ty hospital; Mrs. \. Levy, superin- tendent of charity; J.

WASHINGTON, Jan. l5-McAdoo in an interview said mo man should be called upon to notice such detest- able and irresponsible gossip and slander Ii any man in or out of congress will assume the responsi- bility for these islanders, l will have him put in the penitentiary where he belongs" Tumulty reiterated his former denial
 Asked by Representative Henry who he meant when he said he would give the name of the go-between who received large sum for his bit Lawson said he referred to the name given him by Mrs. Visconti as Sec retary Tumulty"
 Lawson also declared that the firm of C. D. Barney & Company of Wall Street, Malcolm McAdoo, brother of Secretary McAdoo and Stewart C.. Gibboney of New York, knew of the Teak" and that a public man who knew the leak machinery" was Paul NJ. Warburg of the Federal reserve board.

of disagreements before they reach the strike stage, under the implied pressure of the governments war power to commander and operate plants.
 These practices already are in ef- feet On a small scale, having been de- veloped gradually to deal with speci. fife labor problems as they arose. They have failed to prevent many walkouts, however, despite the government's recognition in most cases of the right of labor's demand for higher pay to meet the increased cost of living.
 For Fundamental Solution.
 Continued evidence that employees and employers were not working in harmony led government officials and their advisers of the council of na- tional defense to look for a more fun damental solution. With this end in view, special study is being given British government methods by Amer ican officials.
 While recognizing that their methods may not be adaptable en- tirely to American labor conditions. officials here are giving special atteu- tion to the following British practices:
 Generalization of administration of all labor matters affecting war pro- duction in a single government de- partment;
 Entrusting of mediation of troubles reaching the strike stage to another branch;
 Government production of the or ganization of labor now unorganized and for employers by industries, to make collective agreements possible; and,
 Heavy tax levies on war profits which some observers consider a prime cause of labor unrest.
 The defense councils labor commit tee, headed by Samuel Gompers. will cooperate in any movement to stabi- liZe labor conditions, but cannot be expected, officials say, to prevent strikes or force mediation except by its general advocacy of industrial peace as a war policy. Efforts of the subcommittee on conciliation, of which V. Everett Macy is chairman. have been limited by the fact that it lacks definite government outhority.
 Considerable effective work looking to avoidence of strikes and conse- quent suspension of war production, has been done by contracts specifying that the secretary of war shall adjust controversies in case they shall inte< fere seriously with production. In many cases, also. they have been able quietly to mediate threatened labor disputes and avoid strikes.

 Many people commended Brophy's action Wednesday. and it was patri- otic. At the same time, it was a good piece of business. There is no better investment possible than a Liberty loan. and if every person in the county has Brophy's business acumen the second loan would doubtless be over subscribed in short order.
