PRESIDENTS NAME IN
ALBUM FOR OHIOAN

The affairs Of the nation were
suspended today just long enough
for President Harding to write
his name in an autograph album
belonging to a little girl from
his native state of Ohio. The
album was an Easter present to
the girl and before allowing any
other names to be signed in II
the little Ohio miss wanted the
Presidents signature to be the
hrst one. She was taken to the
White House offices by her mother
and explained to Charles Hard.

That will be difficult at this
time" Mr.. Hard said. The Pres
ident is now the busiest man in

The disappointment was so great
to the child and she looked SO

to the President and personally
see what could be done. When

WOMEN PUT HOPE
IN CLASSIFICATION
Will Remove Inequalities If
Service, Mrs. Gardener
Tells Delegation.

Comm Missioner Gardener Of the Civil
Service Commission today upheld re-
classification legislation as the prop
er remedy for inequalities and dis
ordinations which may be suffered
by women in the civil service.
Mrs. Gardener told members Of a
committee Of women representing the
National Federation of Federal En-
ployes, the Women's City Club and
the National women's Trade Union
League that the Civil Service Com
mission had gone to the limit of its
authority in trying to correct the
evils complained of.
Mrs. Gardener declared It her be-
lief that the remedy Is to. be found
only in legislation for an equitable
reciassification of the civil service on
q strictly merit basis, with provision
for administration without regard to
sex.
Members OF Committee.
The committee which conferred
with the woman member Of the Civil
Service Commission was composed of
Miss Jessie Dell. president OF the
War Department Branch Of Federal
Employees Union. No. 2, representing
the National Federation c. Federal
Employees; Miss Laura Berr1en. rep
resenting the business and prorss-
Club, land Miss Ethel NJ. Smith. rep
resenting the National Women's
Trade Union League. ~
The. committee asserted that in
various branches of the service wom-
en- are denied promotion ton to >. edeco- y Gu
sitions because such positions are
by an unwritten law reserved for
mem; that in some departments
there is a salary limit, sometimes
acknowledged by the department
be advanced, and in other instances
women in skilled occupations are
rated at lower pay than men receive
for unskilled labor in the same bu-
reau or department.
There is no question as to the
existence of inequalities and dis
ordinations Mrs. Gardener said.
Pointing to reclassification legisla-
tion as the remedy, she continued:
at seems to this commission that
where women and men are equally
competent there should be no dis
some positions women are more suit
able than men.

Element in Senate Already
Stirred to Press Knox
Resolution to Vote.
FRENCH OPPOSE TROOPS
LEAVING RHINE SECTOR
Paris Would Welcome Announce
ment of Views on League and
Terms for Entry.

Percolating through the official and
social elements with which the visit
ing French delegation is In contact
come reports of some Of the aims
which NJ viviani hopes to accom-
plish during his stay in the American
capital.
One definite object which the dis
tinguished French statesman is more
confident of accomplishing than some
others he has in mind and close at
heart, is to prevent the United
States from making at this time. or
any time in the near future, a sepa-
rate peace with Germany. And yet
ty-four hours before he became aware
that an influential element in the
Senate is seeking to defeat TINS oD-
ject, and even now is bestirring In
behalf of the speedy passage OF the
Knox resolution.
Would Mean Withdrawing Troops
The passage of such a resolution
would Immediately be followed py
withdrawal of United States troops
from Germany, and the French do
not want this done. 1t matters not
whether only a small detachment re-
mains; what is desired 10 that the
American flag should stay, pending
settlement OF the feQdFdtiOHS C'dimS'
for the moral effect.
The most reliable report Of M. Vivi-
ani's attitude toward the participa-
ton of the United States in some
sort of a league of nations plan gives
the following as a summary:
That the French government would
like the United States to take the
initiative, announce it's views on the
league Of nations. and define the
terms upon which this country would
consider entering a league. Then.
that the countries composing the
existing league OF nations should dis
cuss with the United States the ques-
ton of how such an association could
best be formed. whether by taking
the existing league as a basis and
Amending the covenant at the free
pleasure Of the United States, or by
setting up new association en-
tirely.
1t is stated that the French mis-
sion win not ask the cancellation Of
frances debt to the United States.
France is willing to pay, IL is de-
clared. and will make no suggestion
to the contrary.
