Correspondent at Washington.)

WASHINGTON, April 25.-Ed-
ward l.. Sturgess, of Glassboro, who
was nominated by President Harding
Wednesday for collector of internal
revenu for the first district of New
Jersey. has rendered to c. A. Shaw,
of Camden. the place as deputy col
lector, it is learned.
Mr.. Shaw, who was himself a
strong candidate for the collector
ship. has been acting as deputy col
lector about fourteen years. 1t is
expected here that he will decline
Mr.. Sturgess' offer and leave the
service after many years of contin-
uou3 duty.
Mr.. Shaw was the strongest oppo-
nent of Sturgess for the collector
snip. He had the insistent backing
of Senator Baird and Representa-
tive Francis Patterson for that
place. Baird and Patterson made
a vigorous fight for Shaw but were
unable to overcome the agreement
made by President Harding that
Senator Edge should control ap-
pointments in the southern part of
he state.
1t is expected that the nomination
