McADOO'S RESIGNATION
Before Quitting the Cabinet He Will
Inspect Southern Railways

Washington, Nov. 23-William G..
McAdoo, who Friday night announc-
ed he had resigned as secretary of the
treasury and various otlieI. offices, and
whose resignation was accepted by
President Wilson this morning, found
his desk piled high with personal tele-
grams from friends throughout the
country commenting on his resigna-
ton. He plans to leave tonight for an
inspection trip Of the southern rail
roads, regardless of who his successor
as secretary Of the treasury may be.
1t is considered improbable that
there will be any great change in the
future fiscal policies of the govern
ment. About eight billions of war
bonds of short maturities will be
fioated next year. Before he leaves
his post he will probably prepare rc-
Communications to Congress to change
the war finance corporation into a
peace finance corporation, thereby
permitting the government to finance
industries during the period Of re-
adjustment.
