Still, Mr.. McAdoo couldn t
reasonably expect the politicians
to believe that he is resigning
for the reasons he says he did.

view Of the many jobs that have
been thrust on him it would seem
that perfectly natural for Mr.
McAdoo to want a rest and his
further reason that he desires to
recoup his personal fortunes
should be sufficient TO satisfy the
curious.

invalided home OF on leave from the
front, just as Sherman's army in
the Civil war here was full of hardy
youths with re-enlistment stripes de-
noting their length of service. In
one English camp is detachment

humdrum of drill after the excite
ment of fighting topped with unlim-
tied quantities of plum pudding

gestion.
