officially takes office when he is
sworn IN by the legislature. has given
little intimation OF the selections he
may make other than to state in a
general way that he expects to APP

It Is being reported here that Elk
senator Arney. of Marshalltown. is
being considered as state bank sup
erintendent. as is also the present in
ecuinbent M. v. Henderson, Jr., of
Hawkeye. Commissioner Henderson
was appointed by Governor Harding
to succeed George Messenger last
March.
There is also more or less talk that
! g woman may be appointed as menf-
+. Ter of the state board OF parole when
the term OF the present democratic
member, w. D. Sheean. of Anamosa,
expires July 1. Talk of having a
woman member on this board has
been more or less prevalent during
the past two years.

a report received here by the near

these refugee centers. called camps.
The relief worker reports that san

almost indescribable. The buildings
are crowded, dirty and wet. The refu-

unused to the ways of the city and
Supplied by their misfortunes. sit
around huddled against the walls.
The women have dull. sad faces and
the little children are blue and
pinched with the cold and too miser-
ably llfeless to cry
The women make an effort to keep
clean, but it is hard to wash either
bodies or clothes when there is no
soap, about one pan or kettle for ten
families, and all the water from one
we'll.
Most of the refugees have arrived
In Constantinople with almost moth
ing except the clothes on their backs,
and many are barely covered.
Even greater need exists for blank
cts than warm clothing. One family
Of five for instance sleeps on a bare
stone floor under one thin. ragged,
half cotton blanket.
