RESIGNS POST
ASSECRETARY
OF COMMERCE
Redfield Tenders Resignation
to Wilson, Effective Now;
1t Is Accepted
BU Associated Press.

Washington, Sept. 5.-William c.
Redfeld, Secretary of Commerce,
has rendered his resignation to
president Wilson and 1t has been
accepted, effective November /. This
was announced to-day officially.
Secretary Redfield, in announcing
his resignation, said he found it
necessary to give immediate atteI.-
ton to personal business affairs,
adding that he was anxious to re-
turn to private life after spending
more than eight years in Washing
ton.
The Secretary said he wrote Presi-
dent Wilson on August l asking 20
accept his resignation as of October
10. When he found the President
was to be away on his speaking
tour during September, however, he
agreed to remain until the last of
October.
Disagreed With Hines
Announcement of Mr.. Redfeld's s
resignation did not come as a sur
prise. Since his disagreement with
Director General of Railroads Hines
regarding prices for steel several
months ago it had been almost con-
mon gossip that he contemplated
early retirement from the Presi-
dents cabinet.
Sixth to Go
Mr.. Redfield is the sixth man to
leave the cabinet during the SIX
years of President Wilson's admin
istration. Others were Secretary of
State Bryan, Secretary of War Gar
rison, Secretary of the Treasury
McAdoo, Attorney General Gregory
and Attorney General McReynolds,
who was appointed to the Supreme
Court. There was little gossip to-
day as to who would be the prob
able successor to Mr.. Redfield. So
far as could be learned the Presi-
dent had not expressed any views
to his advisors
