ABILITY BASIS OF DIPLOMATIC
 APPOINTMENTS UNDER HARDING

WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 7- Long strides toward removing diplo- matic posts from rewards for political service have been made during President Harding's administration, according to a report issued today by the committee on foreign service of the National Civil Service Reform league.
 The report says the first year seems to indicate that an earnest ef- fort has been made to retain the serv- ices of men of experience and to ap- point. to diplomatic posts persons with qualifications in diplomacy"
 The committee reports that five of the nine ambassadors appointed by President Harding were men with previous experience i'll diplomacy. Six of the 30 ministers now serving in the diplomatic corps, the commit tee found, were appointed on the basis of their experience and eight were men appointed during previous administrations but were retained by President Harding.
 Four ambassadors, 16 ministers, two agents and consuls general and one minister resident and consul gen eral appointed by President Harding, the report says, were persons with out any previous diplomatic exper- fence.

INQUIRE FOR DECEASED

Inquiries have been received from the southern part of the state regard ing Charles Fredericks, who died here July IS at the age of A years. The inquiries came from friends who were unaware of MT. Fredericks' un- timely demise. Coming to Prescott from Escanaba, Mich, in 1913, in search of health, he had since made his home here, and had made friends in many places in the county and in southern Arizona. He succumbed to his disabilities last month. Funeral services were held at Ruffner's s chapel, and the body was inferred in the Whipple cemetery. He was born in Christiania, and is survived only by his mother and three sisters living in Norway.
Weekly journal-miner., 1922-08-09

"While many of the g appoint ments made of persons without pre- vious diplomatic experience operated as recognition of political obliga- tions," the report states, "the evil of such appointments is largely abated by the present administration and contrasts favorably with the records of the first year of other administra- tions. For this record, President Harding and Secretary Hughes are to be commended. President Harding is furthermore deserving of commen- dation in that he had selected for secretary Of state a man of the high est qualifications and one devoted to the merit principle"
 The committee reported a still bet ter showing, "an unequaled record of adherence to the merit system" in its examination of appointments in the consular service. There has been, during the first Is months of the present administration, the report stated, mot a single exception to the rules requiring appointments through examinations in the consular service.' '
 It IS worthy of special notice, the report says, that present administra- ton Ito a greater extent than any other" has chosen as assistants to the secretary of state men trained in the foreign service.
