airy, 1920. -
my Dear Secretary:
II am very much disappointed by
your letter of February in re-
ply to mine asking about the So
called cabinet meetings. You kind
ly explain the motives of these
meetings and | find nothing in your
letter which justifies your assump-
ton of presidential authority in
such a matter. You say you felt
that. in view of the fact that you
were denied communication with
me, it was wise to confer informal
ly together on departmental
matters, and matters as to which
action could not be postponed until
my medical adviser permitted me
to be seen and consulted, butN |
have to remind you, Mr.. Secretary,
that no action could be taken with
out me by the cabinet and there
fore, there could have been no dis
advantage in awaiting action with
regard to matters concerning which
action could not have been taken
without me.
This action, Mr.. Secretary,
only decpens feeling that was
growing upon me. While we
were In Paris, | felt, and have
fell increasingly ever since,
that you accepted my guidance
ana direction on questions with
regard 10 which | had to in
struct You only with increasing
reluctance and since my return
To. Washington, have been

Judgment by formulating ac-
ton and merely asking my APP

degree of independence.
a, therefore, feel that l must
frankly take advantage of your
kind suggestion that if | should
prefer to have another conduct our
foreign affairs you are ready to
relieve me of any embarrassment
by placing yOuN resignation in my
hands, for | must say that it would
relieve me of embarrassment, MIR,
Secretary, the embarrassment of

Washington. December H.-(Special.) The female of the species is more vir- ile than the male in Birmingham, according to figures of the census bu- reau published this morning.

WOUNDED HERO.
RETURNS FOR BRIDE
Wedding Bells Will Chime Out
Proper Climax to Romance
That Nearly Failed
BOTH HAD LOYALTY TESTED

Two years ago-bullets and German
prison camp; today-orange blossoms
and the wedding march!
And the man. who is thankful for the
turn Of fortune is Joseph ID. Chicamo,
loyal soldier in the A. II. F., and
gallant adventure seeker from the land
of Garibaldi. Monday Joseph will
wed Miss Rose Del Sindaco, his sweet
heart of pre- war days, who was not only
willing but anxious to take him, wounds
and all, because they were received in
the most honorable way in the world.
Before the nations became involved
in war Joseph and Rose had courted
shyly, after the picturesque customs
of their land. They were not engaged, =,
but both admitted, though only in the
depths of their. hearts, that some day
they might be. Then Joseph went to
war.
Captured BY Germans
AS a fighter, he was just as successful
in taking German trenches, as he had,
as lover, surmounting the obstacles
to Roses affections. Then came the
tragic days in the youthful romance.
The Americans moved up to Chateau
Thierry and Joseph, a member of the
Thirticth Machine Gun Battalion, went
with them.
During those July days of fighting he
was captured by the Boches and taken
to dugout behind their lines. At
home, dark eyed Rose only knew that
he was officially missing in action"
and that the little ceremony which was
her dearest wish in the world nigh
never come to pass.
The Germans decided that Joseph
could give them valuable information
concerning the movement of American
troops. Joseph, born of fighting an
cestry, admitted he could, but declared
not one single word would they gel
out of him. They starved him, but hi
laughed at them.
One day a German officer went tc
the hut where he lay and offered hin
the choice of telling-or death Wher
Joseph refused he put a revolver a
the young mans chest and fred. With
out cry Joseph slumped in q heap OF
the floor.
Returned as From Dead
The Germans having every reason t.
believe him dead, left the young maj
| lying there. and there he was fount
by the Americans when they advanced
But he was not dead, and after long
weary months in the hospital he cam
home, shadow OF his former husk!
self, but very much alive and eager t,
claim his beloved Rose.
And so Monday, in St. Donates Ro
man Catholic Church, Sixty fifth an,
Callowhill streets, the two young peo
ple will be married by Father McCady
who has watched their romance iron
the first, and used to comfort Rose whei
it seemed doubtful if Joseph ever woul
come back.
Joseph, with scars on his chest. leg
and shoulder, is working for Rose
brother in an advertising firm on Mar
ket street, and lives at sol Hal
street. Roses home is at 435 Mort

BANKER rs BUILDING BIG
OBSERVATORY ON ESTATE
Henry C. Gibson Thinks Astronomers WU Get in Touch Win
Venus Before Mars-Uses Spare Time in Sta-Casing

Gibson and his architects are working
on an entirely new idea. The advanced
cost of structural steel work has led
them to plan an observatory without the
conventional dome, so characteristic of
this type of architecture. Instead, the
large telescope will be placed in room
on the second and top floor under a
regular sloping roof, which covers one =
half of the building.
When the owner wishes an unob =
structed view of the sky for the use Of
his instrument he will simply switch on
the electric current and the roof will
roll "on wheels to the other half Of the
building and the telescope will be in
perfect position to "shoot the stars. "
When the nights work is over the roof
is rolled back again and the powerful
instrument is parked for the day.
Mr. Gibson's telescope, fine twelve
inch instrument. with the latest i'm =
provements and Photographic equip
ment, is being built in Cleveland by O
firm that has supplied most OF the
famous observatories of the world. II
will be the finest type of telescope that
il is possible TO use under the atmos
pheric conditions of this part Of the
country.
Mr.. Gibson has been interested In
astronomy since he was ten years old
