\ that the senate will refuse to con-
firm several appointments made by the
President. the most Important being

apparent opposition to the appoint
ment of Montlell Of Wyoming to be
member Of the war finance corporation
and that OF Towner Of Iowa to be gov
ernor OF Porto Rico. Among other ap-
pointments Of the week by the Presi-
dent were those Of Brig. Gen. Frank T.
Hines us director Of the veterans bu-
reau and Richard NJ. TObin OF San
Francisco as minister to the Neither
lands.
Mr.. Harding on Tuesday made the
expected changes In his cabinet. Post

tary of the Interior to succeed Mr..

Harry s. New Of Indiana. These NOM
nations the senate promptly con.
tirnied.
