POLITICAL Pot
BEGINS BOILING
IN WAsh|NGTON
Republican National Commit
teemen Gather in Nations
Capita! for Important Meet
ing Which Opens Tomorrow.
BY RALPH F. COUCH.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent.
Washington, Dec. 9.-Politics once
adjourned" today was again in full
session. The clans were gathering for
tomorrow's meeting of the Republic
national committee.
Political leaders whispered together
here today in the Peacock alley of a
famous hotel. For the first time since
1914 the hotel orchestra burst into the
stirring strains of lei Captain" remi-
niscent of campaign days and political
marching clubs.
In the corridors of the hotel where
tomorrow's meeting will be held boost
ers from rival cities schemed to be the
first to pin on Hays the great button
advertising the city for the national
convention.
Yesterday Chicago was said to have
the best chance of landing the big
meeting. Today the talk swung to-
ward st. Louis which has turned loose
an army of sixty workers to greet all
delegates as they arrive.
Republican leaders have tentatively
decided to hold the convention at ST
Louis, Representative Dyer, Republi-
can, Missouri. claimed today
The selection of st. Louis as the con-
vention city. he said, would strengthen
the Republicans in Missouri and the
south.
Women are taking an unprecedented
interest in politics, Hays said today.
According to his reports they want
Americanism, an end of the threatened
Red terrorism, a reduction in the high
cost of living and a national budget
system, he said.
AS for campaign contributions. Hays
emphasized the Republicans wanted to
get a million or two contributions from
"a dollar up"-nothing larger than
$1,000.
Just at present, Hays said, the people
appear to be taking a wartime interest
in peace time government. If that
spirit continues, he declared, he had
hopes that many "evils of government
would be eliminated.
A boom for Senator Harding for the
presidency was officially launched to-
day when Ohio Republicans in congress
unanimous backed his candidacy.
Backers of Senator Howard Suther
land, West Virginia, were also showing
sudden squirt of activity today.

In Telegram to John Lewis Sec
rotary Wilson Says Wilson's
Proposal Points Way Out
With Honor.

Washington, Dec. 9.-Secretary of
Labor Wilson today telegraphed Presi-
dent John Lewis and other officials of
the United Mine Workers urging them
to accept President Wilson's proposal
for settlement of the coal strike.
The proposal. Wilson declared,
points "a way out with honor to the
government and honor to the miners"
The telegram reads:
Il cannot too strongly urge you to
accept the basis of settlement proposed
by the president. l have been asso-
ciated with him for more than six
years and l know that every fiber of
his strong nature has been devoted to
securing fair play for everybody and
particularly for the underdog in the
fight. Every blow he has had to bear
and he has had to bear many, has been
brought about by his intense earnest
ness in that direction. You may rely
thoroughly upon every promise he
makes.
But aside from that, as a result of
stoppage of work in the mines we are
facing the most difficult industrial sit
uatfon that ever confronted The coun-
try. It threatens the very foundation
of our social life. In this emergency
the government has pointed a way out
with honor to the government and
honor to yourselves. If my Judgment
and experience are of any value to you,
let me use them in advising you for
the welfare Of yourselves and the
country as a whole to accept the way
out that is proposed by the president"

test-Judge Sessions Warns
Prospective Jurors Not to
Discuss the Case.

Grand Rapids, Mich. Dec. 9.-One of
the most bitterly fought trials in the
history of Michigan is expected to be-
gin here January 27, when Senator
Truman H. Newberry and 1874 others
associated with him in the 1918 politi-
cal campaign will face jury in Unit
ed States district court on a charge of
conspiracy to corrupt the electorate of
the state. Date of the trial was fixed
by Judge Clarence Sessions late yes
terday, after arraignment Of Senator
Newberry and more than score of
his political lieutenants.
Significance was attached to the
statement of Judge Sessions that a
warning would be sent to prospective
jurymen that they must not discuss
the Newberry case with any one. The
jurors will be warned to report to the
federal authorities the names of any
persons who approach them to talk
concerning the case. That Senator
Newberry and others indicted will
fight the charges ''even to the supreme
court of the United States" was the
statement Of an attorney connected

Washington, Dec. 9.-Republican
leaders in the senate believed today
that President Wilson would oppose
any effort to arrange a program of

constitutional any attempt to end the
war by passage of the Lodge resolu-

evidences of this attitude in the presi-

AGAINST Absorbing
Of COAST GUARD
Should Continue Separate
From Navy, Secretary
Glass Argues.
HIS REASONS ADVANCED

Neither efficiency nor economy is to
be attained by absorption of the coast
guard into the Navy, is the decided
opinion of Secretary Glass of the Treas
ury Department. The sole result of
pending legislation aimed to remove the
coast guard from the jurisdiction of
the Treasury Department, he considers.
is to make perma nent the temporary adj
vanced rank aud pay Of junior coast
guard officers, given as result of war
conditions.
The proposed change. he argues. leaves
the Treasury Department with duties to
perform and no personnel nor machinery
for such administration, and the whole
business of upbulding a marine service,
the work of over a century. TO do over
again. Pointing out injustices to every
class OF the personnel, except junior Off
GERS, by the proposed legislation, Secre
tary Glass champions the cause of those
who would. suffer in no undetermined
manner
