NO DECISION MADE
Crawford May Not Be Eligible
for Appointment.
t
Governor Allen Undecided as to
Course.

John H. Crawford may not be eligi-
Bile to recess appointment on the in
dustrial court because of the senate's
refusal to confirm his appointment.
That is an opinion which caine today
from several lawyers, according to re-
ports, and is now being investigated
by the attorney general.
Governor Allen today declined to
state the course which he would pur-
sue in filling the court appointments.
He will make no announcement until
after the legislature adjourns sine die.
This afternoon, with a big list of bills
unsigned, there were prospects that
the two houses might recess until
Monday in order to allow time for ex-
ecutiye signatures. In such case no
action will be taken by. the governor
regarding Crawford's case until late
Monday or sometime Tuesday
According to claims of several law
yers an appointee of the governor who
fails to win senate approval is ineligi-
BILE to recess appointment. A ruling
from the attorney generals office re-
garding this matter is said to have
been sought.
1.-The senate and myself do not agree
as to whom 1 should appoint" the
governor said today. 'In courtesy to
the senate. which is still in session, I
shall make no statement until after
their adjournment"

AID CATTLEMEN
Senator Capper Urges I'm
mediate Action on Harding.
President Will Push All Agri-

Washington, March 19.-Senator
Arthur Capper of Kansas and dele
cation of livestock men called at the
White House today to urge immediate
steps for relief of thes cattle industry.
Lower freight rates and steps to re-
duce importations of foreign meat were
suggested. 4t
Legislation to relieve the agricul-
tural situation will be urged upon
congress as the first measure of its
schedule by President Harding, it was
learned today. His plan appears to be
for enactment of a joint resolution
empowering the president to take nee
essary action in forbidding importa-
ton of various foodstuffs.
The effect is expected to be the
same as resort to the embargo un-
der the wartime powers, but the au-
thority would be- granted by congress
and make it. unnecessary to resort to
the trading with the enemy act which
is opposed by Harding and his cabi-
net. This legislation would encounter
so little opposition that it would not
delay work on the tax and revenue
measures, it was Believed at the White
House
