of Pennsylvania.
The placing of DIR. Messick In this
job. provided he is confirmed by the
Senate. and there Is every reason TO
believe he will be, evidently means the
ousting of Or. Thomas O. Cooper of Bill
West street. Wilmington. When DIR.

day. he expressed surprise. He said
this is the position he has held for the
last seven years and. while he had re-
ceived no notice of move to oust him,
he did not doubt the correctness of the
information. Or. Cooper is a Democrat
and Or. Messick a Republican, which
seems to be the explanation.
Dr. MeSSiCk Is SON ui lfie tAte LII.

SHUTS TO HELP BOTH
 CRAIG AND DE VALERA
Continued from First Page).

pointed out will be able to give i'm formation of the greatest value
 With Eamonn De Valera back in Dublin, British circles today appar- ently had settled down to await the next move in the Irish negotiations which are expected to come from the southern Irish capital soon after lead CTS of the republicans have had a. chance to study the document which De Valera received from Premier Lloyd George yesterday.
 A meeting of the Dali Eireann to consider the British offer is looked for next week, but Sim Fein leaders here appear to feel that ten days Or more will elapse before notable develop merts can occur. Meanwhile pubIica ton of the proposals is not expected immediately unless Lloyd George and De Valera reach an agreement to that effect.
 Two important points which seem to have considerable bearing On the negotiations are, first, whether an- other meeting between Sir James Craig, premier of Ulster, and De Va lera Can be arranged in Ireland and, second, whether an amendment to the present home rule act would be satis- factory to the Irish republicans, should such solution be advanced.
 A comprehensive statement cover ing the entire negotiations is expect ed to be made by Lloyd George in the house of commons next week.
