day.
Mr.. Larner, who Is president of the
Washington Loan and Trust Com
pany, sent his resignation to Chief
Justice Mccoy. of the District Su-

sfty for devoting all his time to busi-
ness affairs was understood to be

tion are known to favor the ap-
pointment of Capt. Oyster. which is
expected to be made without delay

Der of Commerce. and held offices in

Of taxation in the District will be held

SANTA INVITED
TO WHITE HOUSE
Presidents Grandchildren Will Help
Make Merry the Holi-
days.

One great statesman, the Senator
from the North Pole. will visit the
White House Christmas Eve.
At least President Wilson is hoping
he will. bringing with him a Christ
mas tree, candy, toys and othehr
things to delight the eyes OF the
younger Sayres and McAdoos.
While Secretary Tumulty has made
no definite arrangements for the call,
it is believed that Santa Claus, the
expected visitor. will not overlook the
Executive Mansion in his round OF
visits in Washington this year.
Indications point to merry chill
|dren's party in the White House on
Christmas day. Although definite an
nouncement that the President
has not been made. II is known that
the head of the nation is anxious for
them to be here.
effect of childish laughter will be
of benefit to the President. aiding
in rapid recovery.
Last year there was no Yuletide
party at the White House, Presi-
dent Wilson being in France with
the American troops. The year be-
fore last the celebration included
a gaily-decorated tree and every
thing"
In 1917 the young participants in
the festival included Francis B.
Sayre. jr., Eleanor Sayre, Baby
Ellen" McAdoo and Joseph Cothran,
the Presidents grand-niece. In ad-
dition to these this Yuletide may
be Woodrow Wilson Sayre, young
est of the Sayre children, who has
never been in the White House.

PROTECT MINORITIES
IS LANSING'S DEMAND

The United States will never rec
ognize a Russian government that
will not guarantee ample protection
for the Jews and other minorities,
Secretary of State Lansing made
this plain yesterday when a protest
of the atrocities against Jews in the
Ukraine was presented to him by a
committee of American citizens
headed by Rabbi Wise. of New
York. and Louis r. Marshall.
These outrages have been known
to us-though indirectly-and we
have sought constantly ways in
which to suppress them IL it were
possible" Secretary Lansing told
the committee.
''As far as the recognition of a gov
ernment in the Ukraine is concern
ed, you can be sure that whatever
government is recognized-and recog
nized in all Russia, because I do moi
wish to see Russia dtsmembered-
there will certainly be very decided
movement for proper protection OF
minorities and the rectification OF
wrongs that have been done in so
far as that is possible"
