Trenton, N J., March 22-Scores of men are taking seriously the offer of Dorothy Miller, 16-year-old Tren- ton girl, to sell herself in marriage for $1 ,000 when she reaches the age of IS. The girl made appeal to se- cure funds required for the operation her mother expects to undergo next Sunday. Miss Miller asks that the money be paid now, with marriage when she reaches the age of IS es a reward.
 A New York actor wrote to her that he would advance the money and then the girl could see him before she de- cided whether or not to carry out the contract.
 Pete Herman, former bantam weight ring champion, wired from New York that he would stage benefit ring and raise the money without the girl being forced to sell herself into mar riage.

 MEMBER OF l. (. (.
(By United Press)


 Washington, March 22.-President Harding today set aside the deter. mined opposition of Senator LaFol- lette of Wisconsin and appointed John J. Esch of that state as member of the interstate commerce commis. sion. Although the appointment is made in recess and must be confirmed by the senate, MT. Harding expressed his confidence in the favorable actior of that body. MT. Esch, former con- gressman and one of the authors of the Esch-Cummins bill, is acceptable to both the liberals and conservatives in the Republican party, but was op- posel by the small faction which has Senator LaFollette as leader.
 A second recess appointment by the president was that of Dwight l. Davis of St. Louis to be director of the war finance corporation, revived under the recent act of congress.

FRANCE ALARMED

tBy United Press)

London, March 22.-France today hurried preparations to aid Poland in withstanding an expected attack by the Russian soviet government as the first move of the Bolsheviki to con- quer the smaller nations of Europe and so attain power which would en- able the soviet to cope with the ma Jor nations. Believing that Russia is fighting to become a world power France has returned General Wey- gand, world war hero, to direct the Polish defense and will also supply the Polish army with munitions.
 An unofficial statement from Paris says that the Briand ministry believes that Russia is massing troops and supplies preparatory to a concerted attack on all sides. The French min istry is said to believe this, despite the treaty which Russia signed last week with Poland and the Ukraine agreeing to the boundaries of the two lesser powers.

Washington restrain Paris and Bril-
and meet with defeat, instead of
getting away with that quasi-vic-
tory incident to the decision OF the
conference not to go seriously into
the question of land ornaments.
What is not yet perceived in
America is the extent to which Eu
rope regards the Washington con-
ference as a failure because Mr..
Hughes has -rigidly avoided Euro
pean control of the meeting and
kept discussion 10 those channels
agreed upon in advance. There is
not today in the United States any
full appreciation of the desperate
ness of the actual situation in Eu-
rope.
All Europeans agree that only the
United states can save the situation.
They allewant US to return to Eu-
rope, and they all seized upon the
white House utterance as the first
ray OF daylight. But there all Eu-
ropean concord ends Thereafter
we have French. British, italian and
German statesmen. each demanding
that the United Statesshall come in
on their side and force its views
down the throats of the others. That
was the trouble at Paris: it is the
trouble now; it will continue to be
the trouble for long time to come.
