cation of his confirmation by the sem

The ceremony took place in the Of
flee of the secretary of state. in the
presenca of Under Secretary Frank l..
Polk and other officials.
Four big international problems to-
day confronted Colby. They were:
1. Turkey. This governments views
on this settlement will be transmitted
to the allies within twehty-four hours.
The United States will urge that the
Turks be permanently elected from
Constantinople.
D. Russia. An arrangement is being &
sought with the allies whereby unre-
stricted trade with soviet Russia
would be allowed at the risk of the
traders. The allies have yet to answer
Americas note on this matter.
8. Adriatic- A reply is due from the
allies to President Wilson's last COM
munication wherein he answered their
arguments and reiterated opposition to
their scheme of settlement in that re-
gion.
4. Treaty. One OF Colby's first big
tasks probably will be negotiations of
"modus vivendI' agreements with the
allies and Germany to safeguard
Americas rights under the Versailles
treaty until it is finally ratified or

Especial to The State journal,


Boston, Mass. March 23.-Maine
may break precedents and send her
delegates to the national convention
Henry J. Allen of Kansas for president
That was indicated in the northern
eastern-most state in the last week
when Allen meetings held at Bangor
and Houlton drew applause that has
been unprecedented in former meet
ings.
Since Governor Allen visited Maine
he has been a. strong favorite over all
candidates, including Gen. Leonard
Wood. This, despite the fact that the
Kansas governor declared himself in
favor of the army man. Maine ordi-
narily sends her twelve delegates to
national conventions uninstructed but
present Indications point to the Kan
sas governor as the man who will
force the breaking of a precedent.
Cheer Allen and His Court.
Senator Hale, scheduled for the key
note speech at the Bangor meeting,
was held in Washington on business.
Congressman Hersey, who substituted
for the senator. appeared strongly
anti-Wood and favored Allen thruout
his address. When he spoke of Allen
and Kansas he seemed to reach right
down into the hearts of his audience
and cheer after cheer greeted the name
of the governor of Kansas and men
ton of his industrial court as the first
institution created that gave the ma
jority an opportunity to be fully rep
resented in controversy between Ia
Dor and capital.
In Massachusetts,. also. the Allen
boom is growing by leaps and bounds.
Several Republican publications have
openly declared for the Kansas gov
ernor. Wood. Lowden and Hoover are
all coming in for a scoring and are
even being ridiculed here in Massa-
chusetts. The Allen movement follows
the most emphatic declaration by, Gov
ernor' Coolidge that he will not under
any consideration accept the honor.

The president said there was no
provision of law for fixing new coal
prices for peace time purposes and

Judgment has a relation to the emer-

At the game time the president wrote
the operators and miners transmitting
the majority report of the coal com
mission and informing them that this
report was "the basis upon which the
wage schedule agreements between
the mine workers and operators shall
be made"
April 1 is the date on which these
agreements normally would become
effective, and by removing government
control of prices effective that day the
president paves the way for increased
coal prices to absorb the average u
per cent increase recommended in the
majority report.
Conferees Must Hurry.
The president wrote the operators
and miners that 1t was essential to the
public welfare that the agreements be
concluded at the earliest date prac-
ticabIe so that the uncertainty as to
the fuel supply may be ended and that
the consumers may be able to make
contracts for their coal supply.
