PRESIDENT PRAISES
RELIEF AGENCIES
Also Lauds Commission Gov
ernment in District Dur
ing Present Crisis.

President Harding today paid a
high tribute to the efficiency in
which all agencies of the District
and federal governments handled the
rescue and relief work at the knick-
erbocker Theater and at the same
time expressed the opinion that he
considered the commission form of
government as it functions in the
District of Columbia as coming as
near complying with what commits
sion form Of governments is, under
stood to mean than anywhere else in
the United States where such form
of government exists.
The President also said that SO far
as he was able to observe. the local
government handled the local storm
ner as was possible under the cir
cumstances.
Reason for Expression.
These expressions from the Presi-
dent were in response to an inquiry
asking whether or not he considered
the storm situation properly and eff
GENTLY handled by the local govern
ment and whether or not he consid-
cred the Mocal form of government a
practical one and worthy of con-
tinuance and operation.
The President said that it was the
opinion of all experts and students
of municipal government that the
commission form of government such
as operates in this city is looked
upon as the highest development of
governmental administration, and that
it was his personal opinion that
while he was not placing himself on
record as favoring a commission
form of government. he consid-
cred the local government superior
to any other of its nature that he
knows of. and that he has been ad-
yised to this effect by others who
are authorities ON the subject.

Senator William S. Kenyon of Iowa,
one of the leaders of the farm bloc
in the Senate. was nominated by Pres
ident Harding today to be a United
States circuit judge. He is appointed
to succeed the late Judge Walter l.
Smith. who for a number of years
presided over the eighth circuit. The
senator had announced he would ac.
cept the nomination and the Senate
confirmed it soon after it was re-
ceived.
Persuaded to Serve.
1t is known that Senator Kenyon
was offered this vacant judgeship
several months ago, but his friends
among the so-called farm bloc of the
Senate, reluctant to lose one of their
leaders. and his friends among the
farmers and in his own state, per-
suaded him to decline the offer and to
continue his work as legislat tor.
However. President Harding. follow
ing a number of conferences with the
Iowa senator, the last one being at
noon today. is reported to have sue
ceeded in obtaining his consent to ac-
cept the place.
Senator Kenyon is native of Fort
Dodge. Iowa, and was born in 1869.
He first came into national promi-
nence as one of the special attorneys
of the Department of Justice during
the Roosevelt administration, when
he acquired the popular title of
Trust Buster" because of his ag-
gressive activities in pressing the
government suits and investigations
against large corporations through
out the country.
Succeeded Dolliver.
He was elected to the United
States Senate in 1a11 to fill the va
cancy caused by the death of SEN
ator J. p. Dolliver. and was re-elect-
ed in 1918 and again in 1919.
Senator Kenyon Is looked upon as
possessing one of the best legal
minds in the Senate. and: aside from
divergent views regarding legisla-
ton at times with President Hard
ing, he has been classed as one of
the latters close friends.
The eighth United States circuit
comprises Iowa, Minnesota and por-
tions of Oklahoma, Missouri and the
Dakotas.
THE President has known Since our
service together in the Senate that
political life did not appeal to me and
that my ambition was to serve on the
federal bench" said Senator Kenyon
when vacancy occurred last fall
in the federal district ju6igeship in
my state some of my friends suggest
ed my name to him and he indicated
his Willingness to appoint me. The
legislative situation was such then
that it seemed to me could not ac-
cept.
THE situation is somewhat differ.
ent-now as the West Virginia tnyes-
tigation is out OF the way; likewise
the Newberry case. and large por-
tion of the agricultural program has
been put through.
"The question is presented to me
again aR to the circuit judgeship in the
eighth judicial circuit, and the Presi-
dent, knowing my ambition and desire
for service on the federal bench, and
at the solicitation Of some of my
friends, has.tendered me the appoint
ment of circuit judge for that circuit
which am pleased to accept and
have notified him. I am deeply appre-
