Democrats Will Not
Serve Out Terms

President Harding has abandon
ed his policy of allowing federal Of
fcers of opposite political belief to
serve out their terms before replac
ing them with Republicans, not
withstanding that such a policy was
faithfully pursued by former Presi-
dent Wilson, it is being charged by
Democrats at Washington. Until
recently the president has been len
lent toward Democrats still holding
government posts, but within the last
ten days, according TO the minority
leaders in cougEefsi there have been
three 'high-handed attempts" to
ont Democratic officeholders.
The first of the three events thus
described concerns the ease Of John
A. Thornton, postmaster at Phiia-
delphia. Although no charges had
been made against him, Mr.. Thorn

his resignation. He was SUMMONED
