Viewed as certain-chas. Dawes +.

+ St. Augustine, Fla while Presi-
dent-elect Harding was disposing Of
another long list of miscellaneous ap-
pointments, it become known that in
the near future he would begin a series
Of conferences calculated to bring to
a head the whole question of cabinet
selections.
The names of three of those ex-
pected here within the next few days
attracted particular attention, be-
cause all Of them are known to have
been under serious consideration for
cabinet places. They are Charles
Evans Hughes of New York; Charles
of Pennsylvania, considered for the
portfolios of State, Treasury and La
Dor, respectively.
Hughes Choice Held Certain.
Mr.. Hughes is conceded by those
close to Mr.. Harding to be the Presi-
'dent-elect's choice for Secretary Of
State, and the fact that he is COM
ing to Florida was accepted as one

appointment.
The prospective visit of Mr.. Dawes,
who recently came into the lime light
by spectacular denunciation of the
Republican congressional committees
investigation of the conduct of the
war, is more of an enigma. It was un-
derstood, in December that he was
foremost lin Mr.. Harding's mind for
the Treasury position, but in recent
weeks the friends of other aspirants
have become so active -as.to ~beeloud

Mr.. Dawes is visiting relatives in
Florida, and it is pointed out that it
would be only natural for him to call
and pay his respects to the leader of
his party.
No announcement has been made
of a formal appointment for Mr.. Davis,
but he is expected to be in st. Angus
tine within a few days. It is under
stood that Mr.. Harding has heard
f1attering reports of his capability, but
desired a closer personal acquaintance
before reaching a decision.

victim of strange illness which has
baffled physicians, slept silently for
one hour. The girl. started talking
more than a week ago and this was

hours.
After the nap, however. she began
talking again steadily and physicians

German Counter Plan on Indem-
mites Will Be Practicable,
Foreign Minister Says.
SHOWS MAIN DEFECT
slmons Contends Paris Proposal Con-
sidered Problem Too Much as One
Of Finance and Too Little as
One of Production.

Stuttgart-Dr Simons, the German
foreign minister, declared that a
closer examination of the Paris pro-
posals only confirmed the judgments
he had already pronounced in the
Reichstag. Abiding to the speeches
Of Mr.. Lloyd George, M. BRAND and
Count Sforza, he deplored none of
them even tried to show how Germany
could pay the enormous annuities Of
six billions in gold, but merely ad-
vanced fantastic and baseless figures
concerning the magnitude of German
exports.
The German counter proposals, said
the minister, would show Germany was
taking her obligations seriously, and
would take pains to make proposals
which, although unadorned with fan
tastic figures, would have the advan-
tage of being practicable and meeting
the most urgent requirements of the
Allied countries
Main Defect in Proposals.
The main defect in the Paris propos-
ais, DR.. Simons commended, lay in con-
sidering the problem too much as one
Of finance and too little as one of pro-
duction, and complete neglect to inves-
tigate the effect on the worlds produc-
ton Of the financial performances re-
quired of Germany. T.
He severely criticized the proposed
duty on German exports. Declaring
that France and Belgium must not con-
tinue to refuse Germany's>s technical
collaboration in restoring the devastat-
ed areas, without themselves being
able to solve the problem, he said:
Germany is offering unselfish as
sistance. She wishes neither to found
colonies nor to make building profits;
she only does not want to pay enor
nous sums for works she could have
carried out at far smaller COST"
In conclusion the foreign minister
said equally disadvantageous was the
absence of American representation in
the settlement of the reparation prob.
lem, and added:
III our opponents expect an enor.
nous increase in German exports they
should be anxious to direct German in.
dustry towards the Eastern markets,
instead Of towards their own. Where
as, it would appear in this respect also
that they are pursuing a policy Of
strangulation by the Illustration of Ger.

taken in hand efficiently if, instead Of

While l have said Rhodes was not
